Resealing the fox paint, Jake started to look over the other body paints for one with a particularly complex pattern to it. After all, if he was going to test this stuff, he may as well go all out. Lets see... He could test out the snow leopard, but if it didn't turn out well he could end up looking like a polka-doted freak, or more likely just a gray mess.
"Ah ha!" Smiled Jake, pulling one of the buckets off the shelf, "Paydirt!"
He looked the bodypaint over. It had a picture of a smiling orange tiger on it, rubbing a paintbrush down his arm much like the fox from earlier. Hmm... Yeah, stripes would work quite well. It was nice and complex, yet not hard enough to do it by hand if all else fails.
Having decided which style of body paint to use, Jake now had to find some private place to apply it. Quickly locking the front door, Jake began searching the shop. Alright, what do we have here... Storeroom, bathroom, another store room... Mini kitchen... Ah! A break room! Success! Jake quickly brought the bucket of paint with him into the small break room, and drew the blinds over the small window.
Sitting down on the small cot that was in the corner of the room, Jake began to bashfully strip down to his boxers. Man, the one thing about body paint was that it didn't allow for much clothing... He knew it wasn't too late to turn back yet, but well, curiosity killed the cat, so it's only fitting he would at least look like one afterwards.
Cracking open the lid on the paint can, Jake couldn't help but wonder why the body paints smelled like rubber. Ah well, removing the paint brush from the side of the can, he dipped it in and then experimentally started painting his left arm. The body paint felt uncharacteristically warm as he applied it to himself, and it clung to him tightly.
Looking down at the strip of paint he just painted on, Jake laughed. There were orange sections, there were black sections, but there was in no way shape or form tiger stripes. The two colors just were swirled around haphazardly on his arm with no rhyme or reaso- what the...?! Watching his arm, Jake's jaw dropped. Right before his eyes the rubber like paint started to crawl on his skin, the colors shifting around right before his eyes until finally it stopped, a row of black tiger stripes now decorating his arm.
"No way..."
