‘That was weird…so weird’

Sitting by the orange tree, you can’t stop thinking about the ‘transfur’, you just can't help but feel a bit confused. The sensation of being taken over by Hunter and Scar and turning into a white fox is so...unexpected. Is this what that cat did to you? And the warning from them that there would be more to come makes you shudder.

‘There is going to be more? More of that weird…thing that they did?’

It is a whole lot different from what the cat did. And what about that wolf back in the storage? Was it going to do the exact same thing? But what about Trixie? The way she approaches you honestly makes you terrified. Maybe staying as a host for Hunter and Scar doesn’t seem so bad after all. It’s probably best to stay away from the latexes as much as possible, especially Trixie. It can't be that hard…

…right?

You want to try and find Puro, you don’t want to risk bumping into Trixie, she could be anywhere by now…she could be in the main library…she could be in this very room!

“Human?”

“AAAAAHHHHH!”

“AAAAAHHHHH!”

You jump in fright when a voice speaks behind you. You turn around to see Puro, his fur floofs in fright.

“Human! You scared me! Puro thinks his heart skipped a beat! Where were you human? You weren’t at the library down by that corridor! Puro looked everywhere for you!”

“Oh, sorry Puro. I ran into a bit of trouble down there.”

“You mean those scary cones? Sorry about that, Puro didn’t know there were cones blocking the exit.”

“It’s not that…”

‘This is going to be so awkward.’

“Eh? What do you mean?”

“I…might have, kinda had been Transfurred.”

“...”

Puro seems to freeze in place, almost as if he didn’t hear what you said.

“Puro…thinks he might have misheard what you said! Erm…could human repeat what he said?”

“I had been Transfurred.”

Puro’s jaw drops in disbelief, but he quickly closes it up, still unsure.

“Sorry human Puro doesn’t quite understand. What do you mean you were transfurred?”

“Remember that fox in the bathroom?”

‘Yes. But Puro didn’t see you there. How did you know?”

“That fox was me. I had been transfurred”

...

“Puro?”

...

“AAAAAHHHHHHH!!! HUMAN!!! How did this happen!? Puro didn’t know! Puro doesn’t understand! How are you still here?? When did this happen?? Who did that? How did you escape?? Puro can’t understand! Puro-”

“Puro! Calm down!”

You grab Puro’s shoulders, stopping his frantic questions.

“I’m fine! I’m still here. I’m still me. The latexes who caught me were actually pretty nice about this. They even let me go afterwards.”

“The latexes…they let you go?”

“Yeah.”

“Just like that? W-with no catches or anything?”

“Sorta..?”

“Oh no! Did they make you part latex!?”

“No no no! Nothing like that! They just were forced to let me go sooner!”

“Why’s that human?”

“There is this crazy snow leopard that threatened them to let me go soon or else she does something them so that she could have a chance to do…whatever it is she plans for me.”

Puro takes a step back, struggling to take in the news. His ears droop in a sad-like fashion.

“Human…Puro is so sorry. Puro just wanted to help and be your friend. Puro should have gone with you! Puro should have been there to protect you! If those latexes weren’t nice, Puro would have lost his only friend. Puro is a terrible friend!” Puro then breaks down in tears, feeling nothing but guilt and regret. How could human depend on a friend that is careless or independable?

Seeing Puro genuinely feel guilty for not being at your side made you feel touched. How could he see himself as a bad friend? You reach out and hug the poor hysterical wolf. The sudden hug quietens the crying wolf as he returns the hug.

“Puro, please don’t see yourself as a bad friend, in fact, I appreciate just how much you wanted me to help me. Just you talking to me helps me more than you can imagine. I always thought I would have no one to talk to until I met you. You are a friend I can trust Puro, don’t forget that.”

Puro’s eyes sparkle in awe. He then tightens his hug and starts spinning you around in heartfelt joy.

“Thank you, Thank you, Human! Puro will not betray your trust! Trust is the first step to being friends! Puro will strive to be an excellent latex beast! Puro will protect you from mean scary latex like that snow leopard!”

Tapping on Puro’s shoulder, you signal to him that he is crushing you as he quickly releases you from his grip.

“Sorry…”

“It’s alright! Just a bit dizzy, I’m…happy that you’re happy Puro,” you manage to speak out, recovering from your daze.

Puro helps you sit down as you gather your bearings before you speak again.

“So, do you know another way out of the institute?”

“Oh yes! Since the passage is blocked, the other way is through the maintenance corridor in the room over there. It should be able to take us almost anywhere in the institute! Though there is one small issue…”

“What’s that?”

“The maintenance corridor is a home to the spider guardian.”

“Really? Just a small spider?”

“Not a small spider human…A large latex spider!

“Oh…”

Seems like there is no end to what animal these latexes will take form as.

“But! As long as human is with Puro, there should be no problem! Puro promised he will protect human! The entrance to the maintenance corridor should be through that door! Come on human, this time we will go together!”

With a smile and a nod, you follow Puro close behind as he guides you to the door to the side of the main library. Pushing through, you find yourself in a room filled with piles of books and a few portraits and a sleeping fox not too far from the entrance.

“Umm…Puro?” you spoke to Puro, gesturing to the fox.

“Hmm? Oh! Don’t worry too much about the fox, human. These foxes are very sleepy and docile. They are very hard to wake up, just make sure not to step on any of the small white latex here, it is still connected to them and they will feel it.”

“Ok, so…where is the maintenance corridor? I don’t see it anywhere.”

“If Puro is not mistaken…the maintenance corridor should be-”

“Grooh?”

“Oops…”

Puro accidentally stepped on a small white latex puddle, waking the fox up. The fox groggily scans around the room and spots you and Puro.

*Sniff* *Sniff*

…

“Squeak?”

The fox sniffs the air as it smells a particular scent on you. It smells like a mixture of your scent and something else…a fox…but this means you were recently transferred, and if you were transferred by a fox…

“Squeak!”

You must be a good host!

Running like a bullet, the fox makes a mad dash towards you, eager to have a host. The fox leaps towards you, only to crash into Puro, shielding you.

“Hey no! Bad fox! You can’t touch human!”

“Yip!”

The fox thrashes around in an act of defiance while Puro holds him tight in his grasp.

“Sorry human. Puro has never seen a fox like this. Normally the fox is so lazy, I underestimated how easily excited they get when they see a human. I will take the fox someplace else human, I will be back.”

Taking the fox, Puro marches to the exit while the fox whimpers and stretches his paw to you, desperately trying to reach out to you. As soon as the door slides shut, you can hear some growling behind the doors.

“No! Puro said you can’t touch human! You will leave him alone!”

*Growl*

“Lazy fox! What did Puro tell you about being mean?”

*Growl*

“OW! Puro’s finger! That’s it! You are getting the time-out box!”

*Whimper*

‘At least Puro won’t harm them.’

Searching through the room, you found a polaroid picture of the same girl again, in front of a windshield with a black latex pup peering through and into the camera in curiosity.

‘Strange…’

Not sure what else to do, you check the small television to pass the time. The screen shows an Orange teaching reading and writing. Searching further into the room, you examine the self-portrait of Puro reading a book. The portrait seems to be well-made, with good texture and colours.

However, this left you wide open for an opportunistic hunter.

*SPLAT*

Some white goo has splatted onto your head! You try to scream out in terror, but the goo muffles your voice as you fail around and stumble to the floor. The goo starts to creep down your body gently as it flows down your shoulders and onto your arms.

‘Relax…I promise you will be nice and comfortable at the end of this.’

You try to yell again, but your voice is still muffled by the goo.

‘Oh shush…you are mine now.’ the voice whispers with glee.

You feel the goo start to wrap around your fingers as the goo slowly takes shape into paws. The goo then starts to form a small snout as the goo settles in around your face as you open your eyes involuntarily.

‘Why don’t we enjoy this little moment together?’

A pair of long ears start to form drooping down on the sides of your head. A pair of horns start to form on the top of your head as the goo covering your hair changes colour from white to purple. The goo then travels down your torso as it reaches down to your legs as fur soon starts to form before it. You can't help but shiver at the strange feeling.

‘Almost there…’

The goo then travels down your legs…

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

‘Just a little more…’

The goo around your foot then turns into paws and fur starts growing around your legs sealing your fate. And with that last bit of transformation, you realise what you’ve become.

You became a goat…

A female goat.

‘Don’t tell me that she is a girl…’

‘I am…is there a problem with that?’

You forgot that they are telepathic, best not to mess this up.

‘N-no…it just feels weird to me…’

‘Hmmm..best get used to it my human…cuz you are gonna be my host for a while…’ the goat said, admiring her new body.

‘Ahh…this feels perfect!’

‘Bu-but I can’t walk around like this!’

‘Sure you can! It’s not like anyone here cares. You humans can be so over-dramatic.’ the goat giggles.

‘But it’s not fair! I didn’t want my body to be hijacked by some goat!’

The goat pauses as the tension starts filling the air.

‘You take that back…’

‘No! How would you feel if your body got stolen and you are forced to watch whatever they do with it!?’

Silence fills the air as the goat ponders.

‘You know what? You’ve got a point.’

‘Wait, really?’

‘Yeah! I mean, can you imagine what they could do? They could do all sorts of crazy things to you…’

You are not liking where this is going.

‘For example…someone could just take this from you…and you couldn’t do anything about it.’ the goat said with a mischievous grin.

‘What do you mean…no…no you didn’t…’

In her right hand holds your most valuable possession…your shorts.

‘NO! GIVE THAT BACK!’

‘Whhhyyy?’

‘I need it!’

The goat simply giggles to your embarrassment.

‘Hmmm, I don’t know…I mean…I went through all the trouble of catching you….’ She said with a devilish smirk.

‘Please!’

The goat hums as she ponders what to do, idly twirling your shorts with her finger.

‘Hmm…tell you what human. If don’t stop complaining, I just might keep this faaaaarrr away from you where you will never find it. Unless of course, you will be a good host.'

‘I…ummm…ok…I will keep quiet.’

‘That’s what I like to hear.’

The goat then starts heading to a portrait as she grabs the, revealing a maintenance corridor behind it.

‘There is a corridor here?’

‘Yep! And we are going in!’

‘W-wait! I can’t leave without-’

‘Nah ah! What did I say human…?’

‘...’

‘Hmm. You know what? I think I have a little surprise for you! But first…’

You watch in horror as she simply tosses your shorts onto the floor in the library.

‘NOOO! Go back go back! You can’t do this!’

‘We had a deal, human…if you stop complaining, you will get your shorts back. I’m just simply helping you take this more seriously.”

‘But how do I know if you WILL give me my shorts back!?’

‘You just have to wait and see. If it makes you feel any better, I miiiggghhtt get your shorts after your little surprise.’

‘What?? Wait no please! Whatever you are planning, please don’t do it!’

‘Don’t worry my human! I’m sure you will like it.’

Suddenly everything starts to feel fuzzy as everything starts to fade.

‘What are you doing…?’

‘Just tucking you away for a moment. Can’t have the surprise ruined now can we?’

Before you could say anything…everything falls to black.

----------------------------------------

“Finally! That pesky fox was troublesome!”

After finally putting away the fox, Puro makes his way to find the human back in his drawing room. Hopefully the human didn’t get bored while he was waiting for him.

“Human! Puro is back!”

…

“Human?”

Puro looks around the room in confusion, where is the human? Searching the room, Puro tries to figure out what happened. Checking near the portrait hiding the maintenance corridor, Puro stares in horror as he discovers the human’s shorts. He knows very well what happened.

“Human is kidnapped…”

This is terrible! Puro made a promise that he will protect the human! There must have been another latex hiding in the room! They must have gone into the maintenance corridors!

In a hurry, Puro takes down his self-portrait as he rushes down the corridor hidden behind it. He runs as fast as his legs can carry him until he comes across the crossroads, the difficulty of the situation slowly dawning on him. He doesn’t know long it has been since the human got kidnapped…not only that, he doesn’t know who kidnapped the human. He could very well be transfurred like the fox.

They could be anywhere by now…it’s hopeless…

Turning around, Puro sits by the entrance of the corridor as he clutches onto the human’s shorts. He did it again, he had failed to help the human when he needed him the most. What a terrible friend he is…

*Swoosh*

*Yip!*

The same fox from before bolts into the room, searching for the human. The fox became confused when he saw Puro sitting by the library with shorts in his hands. The fox carefully approaches the wolf and looks at him with a tilted head in askance.

“Sorry little fox, the human is gone.”

The fox whimpers in response, disheartened by the news. The fox sets his head on Puro’s lap as he pets him, trying to find comfort. The fox sniffs the shorts in curiosity and then pushes his head close to them.

“Eh? Little fox? What are you doing?”

The fox ignores Puro as he continues to sniff the shorts until his ears perk up. He found something! Pulling away from Puro’s lap, the fox follows the scent and heads to the portrait and pokes his head underneath it. Puro notices it and pulls away the portrait to reveal the hidden corridor. The fox barks in excitement.

“Little Fox? Are you saying you can find the human?”

*Yip!*

Puro can feel the hope coming back to him, of course! He can use the human’s shorts and track his scent down the corridor!

“Puro forgot he is a wolf! As a latex wolf, Puro can use human’s shorts to find human’s scent! Then Puro can then follow the scent all the way until he finds him!”

He has a chance! He has a chance to set everything right! The human could still be saved!

*Yip!*

The fox readies to jump into the corridor, eager to find the human again. As he jumps Puro grabs the fox’s tail, stopping him.

“No! Little fox! You are supposed to be on time out! You won’t see human! You stay here and watch the library while Puro is gone ok?”

*Whimper*

“No means no!”

Closing the corridor behind him, the fox whines and whimpers as he paws the entrance, begging to be let in. Unfortunately, Puro is too focused on saving the human to care. Clutching the shorts firm with renew-determination, Puro journeys deep into the corridor, hoping to save his human friend.

‘Hold on human, Puro is coming to save you.’

----------------------------------------

The world reappears as light fills your vision once again. Clutching your head, you try to get your bearings as you try to comprehend what happened.

‘Wait…the goat!’

You quickly lean up and check yourself, to find you are back to normal. Despite your confusion, you are happy to have your body back…except for one thing.

‘You cannot be serious!’

You still don’t have your shorts.

Terrified and embarrassed, you look around the room, trying to find some sort of substitute. You seem to be in some sort of equipment room with tools hanging on the wall. To your surprise, you find an odd pair of shorts! Except it’s…

‘Why…’

It’s pink.

Despite your dislike of the short’s Colour, you hastily make your way to the shorts and put them on, thankful you at least have something to wear. The first thing you will do is find that goat and give her a piece of your mind.

‘Oh? Is that so?

‘What the…’

You look behind you to see no one behind you. Cautiously taking a step forward you are met with some resistance as something pulls on your shorts. Looking down, you see that your shorts have a thin pink line extending all the way to the closet. It didn’t take long to put two and two together…

‘It's a bait!’

Before you could pull the shorts off, they cling tightly to your hips as the line starts to reel you towards the closet. The closet opens, revealing a pink furry dragon with webbed wings sprouting from her back to her arms. She also has a pair of horns sprouting on her head and a strange pink symbol on her white chest. The goo on your shorts links up all the way to her tail as she holds it like a rope.

‘I have a better idea, why don’t you come to me instead? Maybe I could help.’

The dragon teases you as she pulls you closer. You flail around, trying to break the line.

‘No! I am 100% fine! I don’t need help!’

The dragon seems to pause for a moment before pulling once again.

‘Are you suuuuure about that?’

‘Yes! I’m definitely sure!’

The dragon said nothing and continues to pull you in, she seems reluctant though.

The dragon then pulls you as you keep yelling and protesting all the while. With one mighty pull, the dragon pulls you off the floor, yelling in surprise as you fall into her arms as she hugs you tightly from behind. She purrs in delight as she rests her head onto your shoulder.

‘There…isn’t that much better?’

‘N-no it’s not!’

Despite wearing the ‘shorts’ you couldn’t help but still feel naked in front of her. You try to struggle, but the dragon is a lot stronger than you expect.

‘Ummm…ok?’

And with that, you feel yourself starting to sink into the dragon itself. Her chest washing over your back and reaching over to your chest, sending shivers down your spine. The dragon then pulls in your hips and legs as they sink into her, as if you are being inserted into her.

The dragon stops however, leaving your arms and head exposed in the air.

‘This doesn’t feel right…did Violet tell you anything about this?’

‘N-no one told me anything about this! And who’s Violet??’

Before the dragon could speak, the same goat from before appears and seems to look at the dragon with a questioning look.

‘Rose! What are you doing?? Why are you stopping?’

‘Now hold on Violet, something isn’t right here.’

‘What are you talking about? Everything seems fine to me!’

‘Really? Let me check something here to be sure. Human? What happened before I met you?’

This is surprising, you didn’t expect to see the dragon to stop and listen to you first.

‘I was at the library until that goat ambushed me and transferred me. I am not used to this whole ‘transfur’ thing, let alone having a female body…umm…no offense.’

‘None taken.’

‘Rose! Stop bickering and transfur him already!’

‘Violet that’s ENOUGH! Human, please continue.’

‘That goat wasn’t very happy with what I thought, so she threatened to get rid of my shorts if I don’t cooperate with her.’

The dragon said nothing but you can hear a deep sigh of disbelief.

‘...is there anything else I should know?’

‘Before she knocked me out, she threw my shorts away in the library.’

‘SHE WHAT??? Violet! I thought you said you had them with you!!’

‘It shouldn’t be a big deal to us! No one here wears clothing!’

‘It’s still a big deal to the humans! You KNOW they wear clothing for decency’s sake! Violet, we talked about this! You need to learn discipline! Pranks are supposed to be fun, not harmful! You were terrifying the human!’

‘I…ohh…” Violet looks down as her ears droop in shame and embarrassment, realizing she has taken the prank too far.

‘Look, could you please get the human’s shorts? I just can’t do it like this.’

‘Oh um…’

‘Violet, what did you do…’

‘I-it’s not that I trashed it or anything! I know where it is!’

‘Ok but if you know where it is, why not get it?

‘I…the black wolf in the library took it with him.’

Rose nearly loses her grip on you as she struggles to regain composure.

‘You have got to be kidding me…how are we gonna fix this?’

‘Wait, the black wolf? The one with a white mask? That’s my friend Puro!’

‘Wait, human you know the wolf’s name?’

‘He can speak English like I do! Maybe you can take me to him?’

‘NONONONONONONONONONONONO!!’

Violet and Rose yell simultaneously, stunning you in surprise.

‘...why not?’

‘Don’t you know human?? Can you imagine what he could do to us??’

‘He is a black latex! We are like polar opposites! Oh he would tear me shreds! I have really gone too far this time!’

‘But Puro is nothing like that! He wouldn’t want to hurt anyone! I’m sure of it!’

‘Human, how long have you been his friend?’

‘Huh?’

‘How long have you been friends with him? When did you first meet?’

‘Today actually.’

‘Err, sorry human. But that’s not good enough for us, the last thing a white latex would do is anger a black latex.’

‘But, then what are we going to do? I can’t walk around like this!’

Rose hums as she gathers her thoughts before coming up with a solution.

‘Rose! Is there anything we could do?’

‘There is. There is someone who could help. But first…’

The dragon readjusts her grip and readies herself.

‘Wait hold on.’

As your arms start to sink into the dragon, you feel her head push into yours. You see a pair of jaws looming over your field of view. You clench your eyes close as the jaws gently slam shut as the dragon swallows in your head, taking it over.

As she completely takes over your body, you notice the sudden small warmth coming from the goo, it's almost like you are putting on a warm jacket. The warmth increases as you see the fur and the same pink symbol forming on your chest and on your arms, confirming the transformation.

‘Sorry human, just making a safety precaution, you are in good paws I promise.’

‘WAIT! Y-you don’t need to do this! I swear Puro could never-’

You couldn’t finish your sentence as your mind goes fuzzy as everything goes dark once again.

----------------------------------------

…

‘Human? Are you awake?’

‘Ahhh, everything is all faded…’

‘Oh, thank goodness you are. Sorry for knocking you out human, I wouldn’t have done it if I didn’t need to.’

‘Where are you taking me!? What are you going to do to me??’

‘Woah calm down! I’m not doing anything bad to you! Right now we are in the maintenance corridor. I am just taking you to a friend who could help you.

‘Really…? Who?’

‘A friend named Weaver. Usually she creates human clothing here while she isn’t busy.’

‘Wait, she creates clothing? I thought latexes don’t need clothing.’

‘It’s just her hobby.’

‘Oh…but why go through all of the effort just to take me to someone? Wouldn't it be easier if you could take me to Puro instead? I said he won’t hurt you guys!’

‘I really wish I could human, I truly do but I just can’t bring myself to take you to him. I just don’t want to make myself an enemy to a black latex wolf, I know you said he is reasonable but I just can’t risk it. You only met him for a day, it doesn’t guarantee my safety at all.

The journey through the corridor is painfully quiet as neither of you said anything. Uncomfortable with the silence, you decide to break the ice.

‘Hey…Rose was it? There is something I don’t quite understand.’

‘Yes that’s right, what’s wrong human?’

‘So far you have been so nice to me, you even gave me a chance to explain myself. So why would you want to hang out with someone who is so petty like Violet?.’

‘She is not as bad as you may think. It’s not exactly her fault, she couldn’t help herself when it comes to making pranks, it is her obsession. Unfortunately, she gets careless and forgets to learn self-discipline and accidentally takes pranks too far. She depends on me to help her learn what is ok and what is not ok, I even take part in her pranks to help her cope.’

‘Oh, is it that serious?’

‘I’m afraid so, a rare case that some humanoid latexes have such as myself, Violet and the others have.’

‘Violet is not the only one?’

‘Yep! Violet has an obsession with pranks, Weaver has an obsession with clothing and Trixie has an obsession with humans. I heard the news that she has found out about you, what happened?’

‘I was transferred by Hunter, he tried to hide me but Trixie got suspicious and found out anyway.’

‘Hahaha! Yep! That’s Trixie alright! When she gets suspicious, there is no stopping her! A shame that she got kicked out of the box club, even lost VIP privileges.’

‘Is that club really THAT popular??’

‘You will be amazed! Leopards are crazy about boxes! It’s a cat thing you know?’

‘I suppose that’s true.’

You consider what Rose said, you can’t help but wonder.

‘Hey Rose?’

‘Yes?’

‘What is your obsession?’

Everything around you starts to feel warm.

‘OH! Umm…I ahh…I rather not talk about it.’

‘Why not?’

‘It’s embarrassing! M-M-Maybe I could tell you next time?’

The warmth grows stronger.

‘Hmm…maybe it’s best to leave it alone.’

‘It would mean a lot!’

‘Woah! I didn’t mean to say that! That was private!’

‘You have to be careful human. You don’t want to share thoughts like that! Who knows what secrets you could spill out?’ Rose playfully teases.

‘I didn’t mean it!’

Rose roars with laughter as you blush with slight embarrassment. Not long after, Rose takes a stop in the corridor.

‘And this is where we will part ways human! Sorry for all the trouble.’

‘We parting here? You are not taking me to Weaver personally?’

‘I accidentally upset her with her obsession with weaving clothes. I think it might be better if you meet her yourself. Don’t worry, she is trustworthy, I promise.’

‘But I don’t think I can walk out without my shorts! It's just so embarrassing.’

‘Don’t worry, I can give you those shorts I made to bait you with. I-if you want that is.’

Everything begins to feel warm again.

‘Sure, it would mean a lot to me.’

‘REALLY? Ah, I mean…Really? I know pink isn’t your Colour.’

‘It’s the thought that counts, at least you are saving me some decency.’

You can hear Rose give a deep purr as she closes her eyes in thought.

‘Rose? Are you ok?’

‘Hmm? Oh, sorry human. Umm, before we part ways, you need to know where to go to find Weaver. It’s down this path, take the first left and then left again, she is not too far. Just tell her you need help, I’m sure she would be happy to have you.’

‘Got it, thanks!’

Everything starts to feel strange as the goo on your chest starts to shift and distort. You feel the goo on your arms start to melt and slip away as you start to lean forward. The goo on your back seems to pull away while the goo on the front starts to move to the side. Only the goo on your hips seems to remain intact.

You feel your head slip out from under Rose’s head as you push through her chest. Before you collapse, Rose catches you as she pulls away from your legs, leaving you in a slight daze.

She turns you around and gives you a heartfelt hug, her arms with bat-like wings holding you close.

‘Thank you for talking and understanding me human, I really appreciate it. I hope the next time we meet it will be under better circumstances.’ she comments as her tail curls around your leg.

‘Likewise,’ you communicate with a smile.

Pulling away from the hug, Rose grabs your hands to connect with you one last time.

‘Before I forget, make sure you compliment Weaver’s work to get on her good side. Avoid any ‘negative’ criticism unless she asks for them, but try not to be too harsh.’

‘Got it, will keep that in mind.’

‘Good luck human.’

And with that, she pulls away from you as the connection fades away. Turning away, Rose looks back one last time and gives a friendly wave before disappearing out of sight. Maybe you would see her again one day, but for now…you will need a tailor.
