I could see Kathy, my Sona who got rubbery/Infection TF'd, needing to see this and require counseling/Therapy.

It's a lot to process.

Yay! *applauds!!!* WOOO!! Love this! Hoping for more.

The ID addition for IP related TFs and twinning is a neat touch.
Another way I saw that done was in a web comic where one of the characters ended up being cloned several million times and then all the clones started to explore. They'd take on new quirks, names and even bodies in order to create their own unique identity. For IP related stuff I could see them dying their hair/fur, or painting their scales etc.
Just hope that it's not Disney or Nintendo they might try to claim ownership.

That's cool. The San Iadras books feature clones too. They all take different names, have slightly different personalities, but when they're together it looks like there's just a bunch of the same guy. Voices too obvi so if one of them talks, but you don't see who it could be any one.

What I wouldn't give to be in their position!

I could see this happening to my Self insert, But quickly finding acceptance

Yeah, most of us could just jump straight to that step.

yeah but, i think its cause my self insert has my qualities of being very anxious and nervous about stuff, so having a change like that feels like a brand new step, Yeah it is definitely going to be harder to sit places due to a big skunk tail and people may crack jokes but finally i feel a bit more free from human constraints

These are really fun.

Not enough analisis on the psicology of the post tf topic, and I like what you have done here, lovely work as usual SnakeMole, lovethe big lips and big hands on display.

In the transformations I usually induce, the characters are often unaware of the transformations and alterations of reality and do not remember their old forms before the transformation. If I were to make the characters consent, I would also inflict a hypnotic power or something similar on them that speeds up this process and gets them to the acceptance stage right away.

Nothing wrong with that.

There's an alternate stage to these, that could potentially be any number here, where the victim.... Um changed challenged will find themselves forced to accept this through mind altering events that are directly caused by said transformation, in which they will either forget who they originally were, or still remember but not care as they're minds are far to corrupted to now.

Well sure, that sidesteps the whole process. This is for the people who only change physically and gotta deal with it.

Of course, and I can imagine some people take longer then others to get to that acceptance stage

Got me fucked up if you think I'd be going through grief if i was in Derek's shoes

Couldn't be us.

What a nice, informational guide! :)

I like how these are both sad, but also hopeful. IMO, the juciest parts of transformation, the sweet AND the bitter.

this is an EXTREMELY smart comparison here

5 is when they started to touch themselves.

Curious~ How does New-U handle TFs that also involve modifications to one's core identity or thoughts? Does it amount to therapy while they transition from one to the other, or are there preventative therapies?

Sure, something like that. Helping you find out where the old you ends and the new you begins, etc.

This raises another question on the way acceptance can happen. There can be gradual acceptance, or partial mental change where their personality changes but the core of the memories remain. Finally, there can be a full on identity rewrite where nothing of the original target remains.

Heyyyy, love this realistic and grounded, informational real-life approach to the unrealistic and ungrounded concept of transformation!

The further transformation thing in the bargaining one sounds fascinating but also incredibly concerning at the same time. I could just imagine a few in the group with characteristics a little bit more... exaggerated than others, or perhaps multiple changes combined.

Anything could happen.

I wonder in some cases some people wanted to take revenge against the individual responsible.

Oh sure. Get real dark and realist with it.
