Doug was jarred from his reverie by the insistent ringing, he reached for the phone, early not connecting due to his reduced size. Scott had practised with the program and Doug was now 5ft 7inches instead of his normal 6ft. Not a great difference but enough to knock out his normal space/depth perceptions. More obvious was Doug’s new age of approximately 30 and his multi coloured Mohican.
The phone call was for Scott. Doug guessed that the caller was either Scott’s mother or her lover, though it was hard to tell for certain as the voice was a deep baritone.
After a while, Scott came off the phone and revealed that his Aunt had arranged for a party the next day at the house of a friend of hers. Actually! Scott confided, Olga had said that she had arranged a gay orgy to welcome Scott to the UK.
Scott and Doug chatted a while about the prospect of using the party to test run the program, but then decided that as they were not sure who was invited, that they should make alternative arrangements.
The doorbell rang and Doug went to answer the door while Scott familiarised himself more with the program.
It was the pizza-boy!
Doug told the pizza-boy, to hold on while he got the money for him and Doug quickly asked Scott if they should do a test run on the boy.
Scott decided to go for it and using a picture taken from the web cam at the door, entered to boy into the program and using the time stop facility put him on hold while they decided how to go forward.
They discovered that it was possible in the program to duplicate him and unfreeze the original and let him go on his way.
Doug paid the boy and gave a generous tip and he cycled away happily.
It was a task of but a few moments to clean his mind and reinstall false memories.
With a blank sheet as it were Scott was able to go through the menus and test many of the facilities, changing gender (which they did not want to do to themselves), also they tested racial change (another no-no as far as they were concerned), other changes they tried purely for interest value, were age regression and animals (there were many possibilities under that heading).
When Scott and Doug were happy that they had a good working knowledge of the program, they were ready to discuss the changes they wanted to make to themselves.
Scott was happy with his current smoking habits but had a desire to try all forms of smoke sex, and had an urge to get even taller and larger than he was now. Doug wanted to shrink more and widen so he was stockier, he also fancied becoming hairier and even more freakish with more metal and more tattoos.
