Emma takes the opportunity. "Hey Jake, this is Emma. On our way from the pool over here I have asked Alice a question and she said that she would like me to ask it again when you can join our conversation. Well, I'd like to know why you wanted to keep your personality and your mind as long as you are her swimsuit. I mean you are a piece of sports wear, nothing more. Just like Mike here. He is my bikini and nothing more. Why not let it be like that for you? It could be more peaceful. For him it is. And so it is for me." She says to Jake with a grin.
"Wow, I can finally talk to you," Jake's voice comes from the speaker of Alice's smartphone. "And I have a name and a personality and a mind. I am not like an ordinary piece of clothing, even if I'm a very tight one. And I feel good this way and Alice and I both want it like that. Why would it be more peaceful if I wouldn't? We have experimented with different setting for keeping or transforming our minds when we both tried very different kinds of inanimate object transformations. OK, some of them were not as inanimate as others..." Alice grins broadly when Jake says these words. "But we're both so much into each other, so we want to have this kind of intimacy and closeness while I'm Alice's swimsuit, not as an inanimate piece of fabric that does not think or feel and just gets stored in a box between two swim sessions." Alice smiles at Jake's words and squeezes him around her torso. "See, that's what he meant by it, Emma. He still has his personality and his mind. And he loves being with me. I love how he clings to me so tightly. He feels incredible. I could spend all day wearing him like this. I'm sorry, I don't know how to describe it better, but it feels amazing and incredibly intimate, wearing Jake. I mean, how can someone feel so good about wearing someone else? Did you ever try wearing Mike with his mind intact? Oh, and do you have Mental Link between you and Mike activated right now? If not, why?" Alice feels like she's being flooded with feelings. Jake can feel her heart beat, the way her breasts press into his fabric, how her nipples stick to him and become hard as she becomes excited. He can even feel her vulva against the crotch lining. And it all feels amazing, more intense than ever. "You know what's also nice about this, Emma? Jake can now feel all this excitement that is building up inside me. We're so deeply connected, I can barely tell where his mind stops and mine begins. I can feel everything he feels and he can feel everything I do."
Emma is impressed. "Wow, that is incredible." Emma continues. "Well, Mike isn't stored away between swims." She laughs and continues. "Of course I'll transform him back later when I get home. But as long as he's my bikini, he's just that and nothing else. He wants it that way. He says that it's kind of like meditation for him, completely in the moment without any thoughts and such. And in fact that's how it is. And I'm happy and content when he is. But of course, I'm also fascinated and intrigued by your story, because I never met anyone else who was into such transformations and the use of the Transform-O-Matic with their partners before. But I have a question: When you two tried all different kinds of transformations, you both had to test it yourself and how it felt. And I suppose the decision to try a particular transformation wasn't always that simple. Have you ever thought that you might not be able to cope with certain feelings and sensations? Did you ever hesitate to start a transformation?" Alice listens to Emma's words, thinking about her own experience and feelings with Jake. She looks down at him, her eyes filled with love and adoration. "It's not that simple," she admits. "I mean, At first I wasn't sure what to think about transformations. Actually, I had never really thought about transforming myself before Jake bought the Transform-O-Matic. It was his idea, just like our Transform-O-Matic came with the inanimate object transformation software package. But I had read a lot about it and seen videos about it, so I was sure it was safe. Being here with you, Jake, feeling your presence so intimately, it makes everything so much better. I feel safe and comfortable, and I know that no matter what, you'll always be there with me. I can't imagine my life without you. And I'm grateful every day that you're with me and that we can explore these transformations together. I love you, Jake, and I want to be with you always. In all forms and transformations. That's all that matters to me."
Emma is visibly impressed by Alice and Jake's words. "That sounds really great, what you're both saying. I've never thought of it that way before. Maybe Mike and I should try it out that way. I have to admit that we haven't even thought of the idea that Mike, as the object we transform him into, would keep his mind. Sometimes we give him the personality of the object and then Metal Link makes sense because then I have something I can talk to. At the moment I don't have Mental Link active. There's nothing on the other side that could answer me."
