While Carrie and the husky were discussing what to do about John, his ears had started to grow, now looking more wolf like. They were no longer round like they usually were, but more pointed. The skin on them was red, and it seemed to be cracked on a few spots.
"Do something fast Carrie! I'm changing again!" He groaned with a slight whimper. Immediately, one little cut formed in his right ear and black fur tipped the edge of the back of his ears, as dark blue fur covered the back of the rest of them.
John could feel the fur spread, starting from his ears, and on his face now looking more like a muzzle. As he opened his mouth to say something, he felt his teeth get rather sharp, almost like fangs. Next were his eyes, appearing larger now, and still growing, which made him look slightly more cartoony.
"This is....nuts..." He thought as his eyes changed from a deep black in color to a more modern art style. his eye color turning bright green as his face started to push outwards a little bit more, his nose growing larger and broader, turning mostly black in color but with a bit of grey at the top, nostrils flaring as his nose finished growing pointy.
"Carrie, HELP!"
"What was that John?" Asked Carrie but when she looked at John again, she realized she didn't hear him but instead, she reacted to his thought bubble.
"Quick! Think of a new body for him!" Said the husky shop keeper. "Even if he doesn't turn out how you imagine him, you're still going to be his owner if you think of him now!"
"This is actually quite cool..." He thought to himself as yellow fur spread to his lower jaw and down his chest, he was starting to gain toony thoughts appropriate to his newly transforming body. his collar turning bright red and starting to increase in size a little as his muscles started to grow and blue fur spread to the rest of his body while tiger-like stripes showed up on his back and limbs.
"This just gets better and better!" He laughed as his new personality took over and black sunglasses showed up on his face. John tried to remove them to get a better look, but they were stuck in place, so it was obvious that these were there just for for looks. He felt a slight discomfort in his hands and looked down to see them inflate in size, covered in fur and tipped with sharp claws. That brought his attention to his palms, and watched thick pads grow there as well. He looked down, finding himself able to stand on his hind legs again, but he still found it comfortable to stand on all fours.
He felt his feet growing larger. Claws were tipping his toes just like his hands...only his toes had fused into 3.
He flexed them a little, feeling the undersides of his feet grow outwards into thick pads. The fur crept around his feet and legs as they bulged a little,and a large blue bushy wolf tail tipped in black pushed its way from the base of his spine.
The changes were complete, but John didn't feel like a background character. His feelings were confirmed when he looked straight up and saw the story that he was a part of.
"Oh my gosh Johnny! Are you alright? Do you still remember me?!?"
"I feel great!" Thought John "I can't talk though so you'll just have to hear my thought bubbles."
"Good news sir!" Said the shopkeeper, "I called some people and it looks like your lovely owner can stay with you in toon world. They even have a house for you! Just head out of the shop and keep walking. You'll know it when you see it."
"Owner." Thought John."I hope I can get used to calling you that."
