What is it like to be turned into a Werewire?

The plug forces itself against your face before you can react. The inside feels soft and rubbery, but with a long shaft that plugs into your mouth. You reach up to pull it away, but it's sealed tight and won't let go easily. Before you can get a good grip, your vision is overtaken with rainbow colors. Trying to turn your head away is useless, and closing your eyes doesn't help as the colors seem to shine even through your eyelids. Your mind is going into a trance. You can feel energy flow into your body, and your head feels hazy and full of static. You are very, very sleepy. Your limbs are going limp.

You slouch down, unable to move. The only reason you're still on your feet is the plug holding you up. You can feel your body changing. The immense energy being pumped into you is making your bones and muscles stretch and expand as your body becomes taller and more muscular. It's not painful, or at least, your mind isn't currently capable of processing pain if it was. Your hands and forearms grow to twice their size and sprout massive claws from your fingertips. You grow a thick pink mane around your neck, and all of the fur throughout your body grows long and bushy, strands of colorful fur jaggedly sticking out on end from the electrical energy pulsing within you.

Wait, how do you know that your fur is changing colors? You can't see anything.

Your vision is still just a rainbow of calming, mesmerizing color. You're not even sure if you still have a face anymore, as you can't seem to close your eyes. It feels like the hypnotic rainbows are being forced directly into your mind. But you somehow "know" exactly what you look like, and where you are, even while completely blindfolded. In your mind's eye you can visualize yourself and your surroundings, but you can't actually move or speak. Your paralyzed body crackles and pulses with electricity. You should be afraid, but you're not. Your sleepy head is full of static and rainbows, and the constant sensation that you're just seconds away from falling asleep, yet you can't close your eyes. You somehow know that you have a master, and that you are pleased to serve her.

A wave of electric energy surges into your body, and you feel your muscles jolt and twitch. Your legs tense and stand themselves up again. You're not in control of them. They're being driven by the electrical pulses coming through the plug. You feel your arms clumsily grasp at the remains of your clothes, roughly tearing them off. Your body crackles with energy. The wire plugged into your head begins to pull you forward like a leash, and your limbs are driven to walk along after it. You are now just a passenger in your own body, a puppet for whoever holds your string.

What is it like to be a Werewire that isn't under mind control anymore?

It was like a vice grip was released from inside your head. You can think clearly again.

There aren't any more control signals being forced into your body. After a few moments of standing idle, you start to try and move, and are surprised to find that you're able to move of your own will. You take a few moments to stretch and get used to having a say in your own body again. Your movements are slow and clumsy, but they're yours. You grasp the plug rooted to your head and try to pry it loose, but your mind still feels sleepy and tired. You let go, the plug still latched on as tightly as ever, still filling your vision with sleepy, happy rainbows.

You'll need to find someone to help you if you want to get this thing off of you. You look around and try to call for help, but you can't speak. You try again and again, and, eventually you manage to make an electric crackling sound that resembles "speech" enough for someone to understand.

You start to walk, stumbling forward clumsily in search of assistance. Your body feels awkward and sluggish. You still can't see anything but rainbows, so you put your arms out in front of you to feel for anything you might bump into by accident. But you can still sense your surroundings perfectly somehow in this body, and you put your arms down as you gain faith that your blind mental image of the world around you is, in fact, accurate.

But there's something wrong. Despite being able to choose where to go and what to do, you can't shake the feeling that you're not really in "control" of your body. Your movements are still awkward and puppet-like, and there's a noticable delay between trying to move and your body actually moving, sometimes by almost a full second. You still feel like a puppet. Just... a puppet that you control. Like you've been handed the controls to your own body, but you're still being driven by a controller.

...The plug on your face. Is it still what's actually controlling your muscles? And the only reason you can control it now is because no one else is controlling it? Wait, you just realized that, even as you're walking your own way, the blue wire is still leading you ahead like a leash. You reach up to try and yank it off of you again, but you're just so, so tired. You can't find the strength to do it. Wait, could this thing have a will of its own and be intentionally keeping you from... from...

Uh

W-
Wha-

W-what were you thinking about just now?

Actually, this doesn't really seem so bad, you know? Your new body is really big and muscular and cute and attractive, and you feel happy like this. So happy. And calm. Happy and calm. Maybe... you'd even want to stay like this? There isn't any reason you need to go back to how you were. Ever. It's so nice like this. So nice. You want to stay like this. Haha. You're so happy. Yes you are. You bring your arms up and give yourself a nice tight hug.
