Kelly thought for a second. "Honestly, I don't know. I can't think on the spot like this. Do something weird, surprise me!"
Perfect, I thought. Time to try something truly absurd. Grinning, I looked over at an overweight man sitting at the table across from us. "See that kinda fat guy over there? Watch this. I wish he would become a sapient, talking raccoon, and nobody outside of Kelly and myself would find this anything more than slightly unusual, though the man will be aware of the change but take it in stride." Kelly gave me the strangest look, then looked back at the man.
Sure enough, he was rapidly shrinking. Fur grew as his clothes melted into his body, and his face restructured to become animalistic. Within seconds, he had fully transformed into a perfectly normal-looking raccoon. He looked down at one of his paws. "Huh, how odd. Excuse me, waitress! I seem to have become a raccoon. Could you remove the fries from that order? I don't think I'll be able to eat it all," he said, as if it were the most normal, if inconvenient, thing in the world. The waitress nodded. "Sure thing, hon. That looks awfully awkward, do you want a box or something so you can sit up higher?" she asked. "Oh, yes. Thank you," replied the raccoon. Kelly looked at me.
"Well okay then. I DID ask for weird, I didn't expect the ring to be quite so... powerful," she said, dumbfounded. "I guess you should change him back, though."
"Nah, not right now," I replied. "I think I'll leave him like this for a while, it's not like he minds that much. Tell you what, though, for my next demonstration I'll change myself. I wish that I would become a stunning blonde country girl, complete with accent, while still retaining my own mind, and that nobody except myself and Kelly would notice the change." At that, Kelly's jaw dropped, and I let the transformation flow over me. Why NOT just dive right in? Taking things slowly is for cowards. My hair grew out and turned blonde, of course, while my body thinned and became feminine. Two large breasts exploded out of my chest as I felt my face rearrange itself into that of a gorgeous woman. A cowboy (cowgirl?) hat appeared on my head, and my clothes changed to match. I flashed a smile at Kelly.
"Well, I reckon that worked out right well. What do y'all think? Want me ta give you a change, now?" I said. Kelly couldn't tell, but I was getting seriously turned on by the combination of power and the sensations of my new body. This ring was AMAZING.
"Joe, is that you? Really? You look gorgeous!" Kelly exclaimed.
"Well thank you, that's right kind of ya!" I replied. "You're none to shabby yerself, though. Now, how's about we turn you into somethin'?"
Kelly thought for a minute, then smiled. "Well, obviously this ring is crazy powerful. Tell you what, I'll go along. I want you to turn me into..."
