The caw of a stranger reached pointed ears and paws stopped in their tracks. 'Ignoramus!' Frozen in place, the crow flew in their eyeline as the serval calculated their next move. 'Ignoramus...' The word repeated again in their head, eventually becoming an endless cycle. With Vale hovering near, their icey, wide gaze remained forward and empty. Suddenly, Pupils dilated and narrowed with each repetition. Claws exited from their sheaths and dove into straight into the floor. Their pelt started to cascade away in ripples and white fur sloughed to the ground. What remained was on track to become a longer, shaggy brown.
With every pop, crack, and squeal their body made, the unknown figure remained verbally silent and expressionless. Their stature started to shoot upward. The youthful figure's muscular structure expanded and shifted to their appropriate place based on their interpretation of 'ignoramus.' An ill-defined jaw dropped suddenly with a snap. Hanging by a thread, the piece began to form into a widened jawline. With a loud, wheezy inhale, the bone practically climbed back into place. In the meantime, their softer feline facial features were beginning to form into a chiseled bovine.
'Ignoramus, Ignoramus, Ignor-'
Talons interrupted their train of thought. The creature's formation halted in it's process as claws dug into their unfinished skull and another command came their way. They listened with care. Like before, they would be at the will of another.
'Airheaded.'
The hybrid practically deflated back to their original form. Brown and white fur piled onto the floor as they started to shrink. Innards started to shift. A pointed face laid parallel to the floor as their body started to elongate and fatten up horizontally. Their spine audibility popped with each new vertebrae. Their short tail followed in suit and grew in length. Working from inside out, the limbs came next. Legs that once breached the torso came inwards and were absorbed into the body. Front paws remained though, flattening out and widening to become pectoral fins. With two fins below and a tail behind, the final doral fin sprouted from the top of their figure.
A wheeze exited their system. Their stoic maw extended outwards and their blank scowl pulled back. A divot formed on the top of their head and expanded into a hole leading into their newly formed respiratory system. Their once soft, pink skin transformed into slick and grey to noticeably finalize their transformation into an 'airheaded' dolphin. A puff of air confidently shot out from their blowhole, confirming the end to their transfiguration.
Whether or not Vale remained on their figure, the dolphin did not mind, but their peace was soon interrupted by another. Olalla's head slammed into their enlarged side. The mammal merely let out a mocking squeal at their attempt, true to their airheaded fashion.
[OOC: Hey everyone! Sick post here, but I couldn't help not posting this. Figured I'd offer an explanation after being so so so secretive about this. I've had this idea for about a year now, so let me introduce you to '???'. They are a character controlled by all individuals around them based on what they are called. As you can see, they were called two names above and shapeshifted based on their perspective of those names. Your characters are more than welcome to abuse this. In fact, I encourage it.
There are a few rules to their shifting, which will remain hush-hush, but there are a few parameters. Nicknames/adjectives/non-animal nouns will be their own interpretation, but your characters can also say specifics. Specifics can be species, name, pronouns, personality, etc... Needless to say, it's a free-for-all.
'???' goes by all pronouns. By default I will be using 'they/them' or experimenting with neopronouns, such as ze/ze or xe/xem. Along with this, they have no set name. If you wish for them to stay within their current form, they MUST be addressed by the name given to previously. For example, in this situation, they must continue to be called 'airhead' or 'airheaded' to remain a dolphin.
Plots I will be keeping a secret, but do expect them to have some development. This character is very near and dear to my heart, especially after mulling over them for suuuuch a long time. You may even see me throw out a few short stories about them publicly! Not just for BoB. Anyways... hope you guys enjoy. <3 I can't wait to have fun with this character.]
