Motherf*cking Pidgey

Motherf*cking Pidgey

I decide to try and chill with the Magicarp for a bit, see if I can make some sense of this new world. And what better way to start than by trying out my Ditto powers? I focus on the Magicarp in front of me, thinking to myself, "I wanna be a Magicarp!"

The sensation is hard to describe, but it's like my body is made of dough and someone's shaping it into something new. A moment later, I feel the transformation take hold, and...

"Magicarpp!?" I trill in a high-pitched voice, mimicking the fish's earlier noise.

I also felt a flow of information or more like instincts of doing somethings. To my wonder, I realized that they were the moves I had!

Fuck yeah!

But the more I observed them, the lesser my enthusiam went. I only knew one move...Splash.

My body flopped on the shore. Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

The Magicarp in the river looks up at me, its big derpy eyes wide with surprise. It swims closer to shore, joining me on the bank. Now there are two Magicarps staring at each other, both of us looking like absolute fools with our wide-eyed expressions.

The Magicarp next to me makes some more "Magiiiii Carppp" noises, like we're having some sort of Pokémon conversation. I respond with more of the same, even though I'm not sure what the hell I'm saying.

After a moment, the Magicarp just swam away, not even saying goodbye. Well anyways.

I gotta admit, moving around as a Magicarp feels more natural than my previous Ditto form. Maybe it's because of the similarity in anatomy – I mean, who wouldn't feel at home with fins for hands and a tail fin for legs? Even if they're not exactly like human limbs, it still feels... constrained, but in a weirdly comfortable way.

I decide to take the plunge (literally) and flop my Magicarp body over to the river's edge. With a mighty *Splash*, I jump into the water, feeling the cool liquid envelop me.

So, it seems like all I need is intent for these transformations – Ditto's ability to change forms. And now that I think about it, I didn't inherit any instincts for moves when I woke up as Ditto, so maybe this Ditto form doesn't have any moves aside from Imposter?

Also disappointingly, I lost the instincts for the Splash, as useless as it was. Seems like I can use them only when transformed.

Wait, what if I can turn back into a Magicarp without there being a real Magicarp present? The thought sends a thrill through me.

'I wanna be a Magicarp!' I think to myself, but nothing happens. I get a weird feeling instead, it's like feeling lack of information, of details... Do I need to be Infront of a Pokémon in order to mimic?

That would be a bit disappointing, but I am not one to complain.

Beside I've got some ideas brewing in my head about this anyway...

I start moving away from the river, hoping to find some other Pokémon to mimic – at least then I'll have an easier time getting around!

As I'm strolling around, I spot something perched on a tree branch – a big bird that looks an awful lot like a pigeon. And wouldn't you know it? It's none other than Motherfucking Pidgey!

'I wanna be a Pidgey!' I think to myself, and suddenly my body starts to change. The sensation is weirdly familiar, like my cells are rearranging themselves into this new form.

...

huh, so that's how!

I remembered the Pokédex entry on Ditto, about its body cells changing to become another thing while transforming, and it looks like that's what's happening here too. I could somehow feel my cells changing to my whims, as if I am the master of all cells!

I know for one thing that many amazing things are possible with such a control over cells than merely [Imposter] ability to mimic the thing I am seeing. But that's a concern for later!

Giving my new wings a stretch, I move my body... and promptly face-plant into the ground. Or rather, beak-plant. It seems like movement instincts aren't automatically included with these transformations for me – bummer!

I pick myself up, dusting off my Pidgey feathers (or whatever they're called), and try again. Maybe it'll take some practice to get this whole "flying" thing down... or at least not beak-plant every time I move.
