That evening Jeff struggled to shave himself so as to look presentable, including shaving back the additional thick hair on that surrounded his neck that had grown out, but after all that work he still ended up with a five o clock shadow, the hair was just too dark and thick. It appeared that this five o clock shadow would be permanent with his changes. Jeff's body was now a forest of hair, his head hair connected without break to his back hair, which climbed around to his front, which grew up all the way to his beard, which now extended just to below his eyes and touched his eyebrows on the side, which had joined together in a massive and thick unibrow, but he was confident he could reduce some of it with the chronovac, though this would involve scanning his new information back into the machine and deleting the scan that was already there, which wasn’t as easy at it seemed. He decided he'd deal with his yetti state until tomorrow. It was still the weekend and his parents were out of town till Wednesday.
Simon, was just beginning to show some subtle changes by the time the two had dinner.
"That’s fucking incredible Jeff, are you seeing a doctor about this?"
"Yeah, don't worry... I mean, I’m healthy, there’s nothing wrong with me..."
"Is this... uh... disorder effecting other things? its all hormones, right?"
"Yeah. its all hormones, so far, none, but I cant say about the future" Jeff replied wisely, already anticipating future changes he could make with the chronovac.
Simon ate rapidly and went to his room later that night, still somewhat curious about that computer. Was that really what is was for? tracking his brother's disorder? or was there something more to it? he wasn’t quite sure.
Later that night, Simon slipped into bed, rather horny and fatigued. He felt a little funny, but he didn’t think about it.
Jeff meanwhile was getting the device ready in his own room and scan himself into the program. To his surprise the machine only read 27.4 on the hairiness index. It appeared that he had scanned Simon into the program before the changes had finished, permenantly halting Jeff's own transformation.
"Shit!" Jeff mumbled under his breath. That would mean Simon would get even hairier than he was right now, which seemed practically impossible.
For the evening Jeff lowered his hair index to a more modest 25. He would still have the full body hair that completetly covered his torso, which was, in a matter of speaking, starting to grow on him, but it would not be quite as thick on the back of his neck, and his beard would only extend to his cheekbones, subtle differences that would keep him from being perceived as a circus freak. After all, there were some guys who were really this hairy in real life. He figured he could change some other things tomorrow... so long as his brother doesn’t mess with the chronovac. Jeff set the timer to 8 hours and went to sleep. The feeling of his own body fur rubbing against his blankets was still a little surreal for a guy who had been as smooth as his brother just 12 before.
Simon woke up the next morning feeling groggy, and a little funny. He could quite place it at first as he walked shirtless into the bathroom, until he noticed something seemed a little different...
