You look through the aisles of body suits when a familiar one catches your eye. It's Free from the anime Soul Eater! The suit is huge and muscular. You run your hands down a toned arm and recoil in surprise.
The suit feels warm like real skin! You touch it again and are both turned on and creeped out by how lifelike it feels.
"Interested?" A voice behind you drawls.
You jump and turn to see the owner of the store. He looks a little amused at your reaction. You shakily reply, "This costume... it feels like real skin!"
"Ah yes... I should hope it feels real. That's what we were aiming for when we made them!" He says matter-of-factly. You look back at the costume and babble, "Made them? Like, by hand? Did you use silicone or something, because, I mean, it's SO realistic and..." You babble on for a bit, before trailing off. The owner replies, "These suits are ah... special. They are meant to be physical manifestations of different types of people. Big, little, male, female, different races, stereotypes, species-"
"-Even animated?" You interrupt.
"Yes, even animated characters", He continues.
"This is meant to be an experiment. I want to see if people can actually handle being what they think they want to be. Maybe a woman wants to be a man, a man wants to be an animal, a child wants to be his favorite superhero, and everyone else in between."
You consider the things he's implying for a few second before you whisper, "You mean.... people who wear these costumes... can-?"
"Become whoever or whatever they're wearing." The owner finished. Thoughts and possibilites begin racing through your head. He continued saying, "Even abilities and powers that are owned by certain types are imported in. It makes the experience that much more fulfilling."
You dazedly ask, "Is it permanent?" The owner laughs and says, "Only if you want it to be! It usually lets you out after 24 hours, but most people love their new selves so much, they let it bond with their bodies, staying in that form forever."
You look wildly at the Free costume with even more possibilities and thoughts running through your head. Walking around strutting yourself in that tall, hard body is like a dream come true!! You can feel a giddy smile working up. The owner taps your shoulder and points to the door at next to the cashier and says, "Dressing rooms are over there."
You happily grab the surprisingly light, but no less bulky costume and mask and jog into the dressing room...
