A PETFriendly Story(Woman to Eagle)Brooke was conflicted. While it was true that she was generally a rule-follower, she had never seen a piece of technology like the tablet in front of her, and the fact that it had “RESTRICTED” stickers all over it only exacerbated the temptation to use it anyways.She delicately powered on the device and attempted to determine exactly what it did. After scanning through the block of text that appeared on start-up, Brooke’s best guess as to the tablet’s function was that it likely worked as some sort of tool for ordering a pet. She also assumed from the following screen of text fields that she was meant to enter search parameters to her liking, narrowing the results for potential adoption candidates.While she couldn’t say how close she was to the truth with her guess, Brooke was certainly fond of the idea of looking for an ideal partner to her pet bird, Cloud. She’d adopted him on her 21st birthday after wanting a pet her entire life, having been being forced to wait until she moved out and could actually afford it to own her dream animal: a Golden Eagle.It had been less than a year since Brooke adopted Cloud, and she figured that it was time to get him another feathery friend. He often seemed lonely to her and made Brooke almost regret being nothing but an owner to him. Brooke decided to just enter information and see at the end if there’s a fee involved for logging a search.The first query almost seemed to be asking for the name of her desired pet, but she thought for a moment and realized it must be asking forname, since it’d be ludicrous to hone potential adoptees based on their names. Brooke complied and input her name into the device, and then quickly completed the species selection by selecting “Golden Eagle” from the dropdown menu.Brooke was surprised at the variety of animals listed as searchable species. It wasn’t the standard selection of pets she would see at a pet store — rather, the list looked to contain every animal on Earth, from mammals as large as elephants to fish as dangerous as sharks! There was even a submenu solely for plants.As Brooke debated whether it was accommodating or weird of the service to include such a wide range of fauna, a weak jolt of electricity jumped to her hand, making Brooke’s fingers curl in toward her palm ever so slightly.Brooke knew Cloud would almost surely appreciate the presence of a female bird over a male’s and checked the “female” box on the screen in her pet’s best interest. She looked up from the tablet, her teeth having suddenly pressed harder into her gums. Brooke opened the camera on her phone and used it to examine her face, noticing little else out of the ordinary besides a gloss to her lips.Except, as Brooke remembered, she’d forgone applying makeup this morning. She certainly would’ve never bought anything that’d give her lips the yellow sheen they appeared to have, let alone such a noticeable one! The tablet on her lap dimmed it’s screen as if to force Brooke’s attention back onto it. Some part of her wanted to just let the tablet enter idle mode and not worry about finishing the order, but the urge to ignore that part of her grew more prominent in her brain. She carried on in spite of the tugging sensation around her mouth.It wasn’t too hard for Brooke to come up with a few traits to type in. She decided on three in particular for Cloud’s future mate: ‘expressive’, so that it could communicate especially passionate emotions; ‘romantic’, so that its passion would be funneled into an overly lovey-dovey kind of attitude towards Cloud; and ‘birdbrained’, so that Brooke could meet the minimum of three entries required to move on while not having to enter too extreme a modifier of its personality. Brooke reasoned that only non-birds being ‘birdbrained’ would cause any real changes to its personality, since she specified in the text field that it simply meant that her future pet will think like a bird.Setting the tablet down to address the growing discomfort on her face, Brooke was alarmed to feel something welling in her esophagus that seemed to narrow her windpipe as it rose. Eventually, after a few moments spent in helpless anticipation, she braced for whatever was going to surface.Brooke blinked. That was… incredible! She sported a goofy grin as she let out several cries just like it, each one sounding more and more like an eagle. That seemed to make sense to Brooke — she specifically chose ‘expressive’ as a trait moments earlier, didn’t she? Only, she didn’t intend that vocalness to apply to any human...Human. The word bounced around in her brain, but she couldn’t put her finger on why the word no longer seemed appropriate to her. Her brain only further clouded and, before she could fully consider if the ‘birdbrained’ trait was also manifesting in her, another word asserted itself in her conscious, even more so than ‘human’.Bird. It sounded right, as though carried more meaning — but why? Brooke let out a piercing call in frustration, and the sound of it made something click in the synapses of her brain: of course the word meant more to her. She wasn’t becoming birdbrained as she had briefly considered, because she didn’t need a tablet to make her think like a bird; Brooke already was one!Shea bird!Brooke could so clearly envision her true self now — golden-brown feathers, a regal wingspan, her beloved yellow beak — but became upset upon looking at her body and realizing how little it resembled the image of her inner Golden Eagle. A new worry trumped that of identity in Brooke’s mind, however, as she realized that her sense of self didn’t matter anymore. The only thing that truly mattered was her mate: Cloud.The thought of him seemed to unlock a part of Brooke that she didn’t even know existed. Any goals or hobbies that once defined Brooke were replaced by a single desire to love Cloud, and she knew that she couldn’t do that without first making herself into a proper mate for him.With that, Brooke’s eyes cast themselves over the tablet as Brooke swooned with the thought of someday being Cloud’s mate: a goal she now knew the device could help her achieve. Too overwhelmed with passion to notice the clumps of blonde hair falling onto the floor around her, Brooke continued on through the registration and was quite pleased at the next attribute she’d get to specify.This was where Brooke knew she could use the tablet’s power to her benefit. She keyed in all the relevant information to perfectly design what would make the perfect mate for Cloud. Brooke knew that she was already the perfect bird for him to spend eternity with at heart, but Cloud would never cuddle with a bird that looked as human as she did.Ready to get rid of her current figure, Brooke finished typing and let the changes come over her. Immediately, her nose and upper lip became indistinguishable from each other and tugged outward, the force of it elongating the rest of her face. Brooke’s eyes repositioned themselves on her head, allowing for a different view of both the world around her and the new, massive beak now protruding magnificently in front of her.Letting out a proud cry allowed the maxilla and mandible of her beak to part and reveal Brooke’s massive maw. She finished the screech with a sense of regale, not noticing her teeth had vanished into her gums somewhere along the way. She began to pant, her body feeling hot from the changes, and could suddenly feel how narrow her tongue had become. The muscle’s movement in and out of her giant beak seemed to loosen her neck, opening it up to allow larger prey through.It was then she noticed the heaps of hair on the floor. Feathers colored in a beautiful range of brown took nest in her skin in place of her old outgrowths. Holding up her arms to get a more detailed look at them, Brooke could see particularly large feathers blooming on them as their structure became better suited for flight.She suddenly toppled over in her seat as her legs drastically shortened and her feet shrunk, throwing her sense of equilibrium completely off-kilter. Brooke watched as her toes fused and curled into talons, each taking a different direction in which to extend out further. She squawked in delight at the sensation of her toes stretching apart and even started to pant once more, though this time it was out of some sexual pleasure.Each of her toenails became conic and sharp, and the sound of bones scraping against each other told Brooke that her legs were completing their avian appearance by attaching to her now-extensively feathered body at a different angle and location.Her legs repositioning themselves forced Brooke into a bird-like stance, which surprisingly felt more natural to her than her human one ever did. The changes to her head, meanwhile, were too imperceptible for Brooke to fully appreciate. Her hearing cut out before reappearing moments later, crisper and more attuned than ever before thanks to small openings under her feathers replacing her external ears.Brooke’s sense of smell also improved, and, through use of the nares embedded in her beak, she could smell Cloud all the way in the other room. Her heart fluttered in reply, and feelings of desire and passion overwhelmed her mental state.Every emotion in Brooke’s psyche grew more powerful and intense by the second, the preening of her wings alone bringing her more pleasure than she’d thought possible. Still, nothing could reside larger within her than the need to serve Cloud as his mate, so Brooke turned her head back to the tablet, her eyes almost able to pick out individual pixels on its screen. Brooke now bore a nearly identical resemblance to a Golden Eagle, but her proportions still had to wait on a smaller-sized body to look proper. The eagle used her wingtips to scroll down the entry page, heaving a thankful sigh that the touchscreen didn’t need human skin to work.Brooke considered opting for the ‘maximum’ option but settled on ‘very high’, not wanting to ever demand sex of Cloud and hoping that he would feel comfortable being the one to decide when and where the two mate. Brooke truly wanted nothing more than to satisfy Cloud’s wants, and the sudden tremble of her groin told her that she would also get some relief out of doing so.The sound of a door opening shot panic into the eagle’s expression, but the doctor who’d walked out had simply disappeared into a room across the hall from Cloud’s room. She resolved to finish the rest of the registration quickly as to have some alone time with her mate.Brooke shortly wondered what downside there was to entering the maximum value — a ten out of ten in intelligence — and nearly made the choice to do precisely that once no reason not to do so presented itself to her. But she stopped herself from keying in ‘10’ at the last second after realizing that the word ‘relative’ most likely meant that her human smarts were the maximum on that scale already.She had, in fact, felt weird throughout her transformation from having such extensive knowledge about human subjects while simultaneous identifying as an eagle. Brooke accepted that becoming her true, inner self required becoming a bit more of a birdbrain than she already was. Brooke steeled herself for the potential ramifications of her next act and keyed an intelligence of four out of ten, feeling the effects immediately thereafterHer grasp on math, science, and human society deteriorated first, leaving a bird with little understanding of the purpose of the room around her in the wake of one that moments ago did. As knowledge of academic subjects vanished completely, other parts of Brooke’s brain began to be dumbed down by a more avian sensibility. Communication became less complex and, while she could still understand the language she’d spent so much of her life learning, Brooke could no longer speak, write, or even think in English, as her inner monologue eventually slowed to a halt.Even after all the mental turmoil, the eagle was still able to feel an incredible sense of accomplishment once the final imperfections in her proportions and stature had been fully corrected for the transformation to complete. Brooke was now the ideal partner to Cloud not just in mind, but in body as well.Brooke idly picked at her scaly feet with her beak before turning back to the tablet. The need to be her best self for Cloud had never waned in intensity, and neither had the urgency in finishing the task at wing.Perhaps her proficiency in had English fallen a bit too steeply — while she could read each word and recall their meaning, the intent of the question confused Brooke. She could already speak, couldn’t she? The eagle squawked to affirm that she hadn’t lost the ability, and the air split with loud confirmation that she still could. Brooke felt another wave of pride from her screech and, after wiping the spittle that had flown off her thick tongue onto the tablet in the process, moved on with the box ticked ‘no’, never figuring out what was really meant by the question.Brooke selected ‘yes’ without hesitation. A flood of information entered her brain and differentiated the eagle even further from her old species. Wave after wave of knowledge like raising and nurturing her young, how to take flight, and the specifics of mating assaulted her consciousness and were simply too much for Brooke to take. She entered a frenzied state of lust as Cloud now outweighed everything else in importance, including the tablet in front of her.She took flight, possessed by an animalistic need for Cloud’s touch, and managed to knock the tablet with her talons in the processing of taking off. Although Brooke had already left, the device whirred in response and determined that registration was complete, displaying the message: “We’re sorry, some text fields were left empty. We will try to autofill them to the best of our abilities.”Golden EagleBrookeExpressive, romantic, birdbrainedGolden-brown feathers, large yellow beak, 6-foot wingspanVery high4/10NoYesPermanentOffBrooke flew down the hallway to the avian holding room using quick, elegant beats of her wings and quivering in anticipation of seeing Cloud. The gale created by Brooke’s flight closed the door behind her upon entering the room, and the resulting privacy made her first look at him that much more special.There her mate sat, sleeping alone in a cage, unaware of the perfect bird behind him. The colors of Cloud’s feathers and raw sexiness of his body elicited a soft moan from Brooke, which made him shoot awake and rise to his talons. She could finally, after what felt like lifetimes of waiting, rush forward to nuzzle him for the first time.Brooke could tell that he was being cautious of her sudden presence, as he only hesitantly returned the motion at first. But when she and Cloud’s feathers touched at last, an unspoken, passionate bond instantly formed, and both eagles soon fell head-over-talons for each other, letting out soft cooing noises as they took turns gently nibbling at the other’s beak.The taste of her mate’s beak on her tongue made her appreciate how sensitive it was, as its dry, gritty flavor flooded her senses with euphoria. She took a perched position next to Cloud, who looked expectantly toward her. Brooke understood what he meant by it and began to assume a position more befitting of a mating session.No longer thinking of him as her pet and she his owner, Brooke had become utterly, irreversibly entrenched in her new position. She could now only think of herself as Cloud’s dutiful mate and he her rightful master. Before giving Cloud total freedom to do to her as he pleased, Brooke blissfully exhaled through her nares, grateful to be yet another happy customer of PETFriendly services.
