CHAPTER 8 - Erratic Erogeny
~ ~~ ~~~ ~~ ~
In the following days the modest room frequently filled with loud mechanical buzzing and pleasant moans. Alice and her magic wand became very close friends. Of course the sensations were radically different than her fingers, but what really made Alice happy about her new toy was how fast it could relieve her. She could bring herself to a soul shattering orgasm in thirty seconds flat if she turned the wand up high enough. And because of how powerful it was, it sated her far longer than she had been able to with just her hand. She had so much more room for activities with the aid of her new toy.

CHAPTER 8 - Erratic Erogeny
In the days following the deliverance of a last message, Alice's mood improved. Slowly but significantly. Though still bored out of her mind, and plagued by incessant lust, she tried to get back into a routine of some sorts. She was never one to even think about fitness before, relying on questionable eating habits to keep her figure over any sort of work out. She began doing simple things to pass the time, incorporating exercise into her day. Even though she fatigued quickly due to the recent bout of starvation, she was improving. Dips, squats, a few push ups, and a hell of a lot of core work. Some part of her was reacting to pervasive memories of her time in that bathroom, 'if only I had been stronger,' she thought to herself. On the other hand, when she burned particularly hot, she thought, 'If only I had been more flexible." And that is what pushed her towards adding a lengthy daily stretching routine as well.
Sera noticed Alice's improvements and couldn't help but smile. Even though the distance between them was still great, Sera cared, and
needed
to see Alice get better. One morning, after observing Alice lay a towel down to do sit ups on, a yoga mat appeared along with a set of small weights. Alice looked confused when she first saw them, but quickly incorporated them into her routine. She thanked the seraphim flatly, stating that she didn't ask for them. She had never asked for anything, any of it.

Alice sat patiently, watching Sera cook something for her for dinner. She knew Sera didn't have to, that food could just appear. She shared this with Sera, but it didn't stop the celestial from standing over the stove at least two times a day. Alice hid the fact that she enjoyed the wafting smells of sizzling fat, roasted vegetables, and other scents that piqued her. She didn't have much at the time, and would miss the teasing of her senses before a meal. The little things.
Soon enough a plate was placed before her. Still small compared to the plates she used to eat, but it was balanced and absolutely delicious. Sera leaned against the counter and watched her eat, she knew Alice wouldn't be praising her anytime soon, but seeing her wolf down a meal that Sera had cooked herself was thanks enough. Alice was growing back into her skin, slowly.
With her mouth still partially full, Alice paused her meal to speak. "Hey stretch?" Alice said, undecided whether she was going for malice or just teasing by commenting on Sera's elongated limbs.
"Uhhmm? Yes... kitten?" Sera said back.
Alice squinted, her brow furrowed. "You know... some people might not like being addressed like that." Her furrow released to neutral, though her eyes shone enough to let Sera know how she really felt. "I have some questions, about my changes."
Sera shifted uncomfortably, they hadn't even approached the topic since Alice had gone critical. "Ok, I can... I will do my best to answer them."
Alice munched on a bite of chicken, thinking of what to ask. "Why am I like this?" She asked, unable to dredge up any semblance of eloquence.
Sera tilted her head, "You... You know why... I mean, I can go over it again, if you need me to that is."
After taking a sip of water to clear her throat, Alice sighed. "No. No, you don't need to, I understand
how
I became like this, at least I sort of do." Alice took hold of her still healing tail and one of her ears. "I mean, why I am like
this
." She wiggled her new appendages to emphasize her question.
To cover the drift of the corners of her mouth upwards, Sera raised a hand in front. "
That
, is easier to explain." She said, lowering her hand after her smile deflated. "I had to fuse two of you together, to make you that is."
"Yes." Alice said in exasperation, "But why this? Why these specifically?" Again shaking her tail at Sera.
"Oh. Hmmm... well, I was kind of limited in terms of time and, well maybe not time... but you know, there were limitations to the steps I could take. And the closest world with a compatible you was right over there."
Alice stopped Sera "Right over where?" she asked.
"Just over there, in that direction." Sera said without moving.
"Holy fuck, which direction?" Alice asked louder, spreading her arms to encompass every direction.
"I am looking right at it, just follow my eyes."
"You are looking right at me..." Alice responded, beginning to give up on the line of questioning.
Sera shrugged "That is where it is."
Alice sighed and shoveled some more food into her mouth "Ok, whatever..." she said while chewing "So this world is super close?"
"Yes," Sera said, nodding. "And the
you
there, was compatible with the
you
here."
"And let me guess, everyone there had cat ears and tails?" Alice asked with a bored intonation.
"Oh no, not at all." Sera said with a smile "They are waaaaay more cat like, all covered in fur with whiskers and funny looking feet and hands. Some of them are actually kind of cute..."
"So I only inherited parts of them, her, me?" Alice said furthering the line of questioning.
Sera shrugged "I, am not totally sure why. I forced her into you, maybe less went in than I thought was going to... I think it turned out for the better though, as cute as some of them were. I am a fan of bare skin over fur."
Alice raised an eyebrow.
Sera blushed, almost imperceptibly "Not your skin per se... just you know, aesthetic preferences and... such."
"Uh huh..." Alice said, watching the tall seraph squirm as she back peddled. Diving back into her plate, Alice all too quickly shoveled the rest into her face, resulting in a bout of nausea. She pushed her plate away from where she sat and groaned, stretching her hands as far out as she could. Relaxing from the stretch Alice crossed her arms on the counter with her head resting on them. She turned to look at Sera, who had been keenly watching Alice stretch and curve and groan.
"What about the other changes?" Alice asked.
Sera lifted her hands in confusion, "What other changes?"
Alice furrowed her brow and exhaled with a trill of her lips. "The changes, inside me... like, certain urges, behavioural changes during certain situations. That sort of thing?" She was having a hard time looking Sera in the eyes. She avoided saying things outright.
Squinting for second, Sera took a moment to think. "Urges?" She said lifting her shoulders, apologetic ignorance expressed in her eyes.
Pursing her lips, Alice looked up at Sera with a huff. "Did you...? Do you think it's my normal behaviour to masturbate this many times a... masturbate
all
day?" A slight blush moving to her cheeks.
Sera's eyes flicked to the hand that she had seen Alice use so many times over the past weeks. Alice moved her hand under her arms and out of sight, the blush deepening.
"I will admit, I might have thought you were just very, very... active." She said carefully, not giving away exactly what she thought of Alice's behaviours. "How much did you, um, Before?"
Alice buried her face in her folded arms before speaking. "I don't know... Like three times a week, maybe?"
