I promise, I'm smart!

“And we’re back after our short commercial break, which should have left you all more than enough time to vote! Let’s get a look at the results now!”

As Elle turned to watch the board, she could see each option’s counter increasing and stopping, leaving the fifth one well above the others. One of the less **** ones, she thought.

“I promise, I'm smart! Seems like Elle will have some trouble asserting herself from now on. Let’s hope it won’t make teaching rowdy teenagers too hard…”

While Jack’s joke elicited some laughter from the crowd, Elle barely registered the quip. She felt an overwhelming outpour of knowledge in her brain. An expert in English literature, she realized she now had a full understanding of quantum physics and thermodynamics, as well as a mastery of a dozen of languages. The lessons she had memorized for her next class suddenly felt incredibly dull and stuffy, as if it had been written by a student. Her new, superior intellect was so staggering, so exhilarating, she felt like she could…

“Hello, Earth to Elle? Do you hear us sweetie, or did you miraculously manage to get lost in your small thoughts?”

She was snapped out of her transe by Jake clapping in front of her eyes.

“Sorry, it’s just… it’s gonna take me some time to get accustomed to all this knowledge.”

“Yeah, yeah, dear, I’m sure you’re soooo intelligent. Now why don’t you put your pretty mouth to some good use instead of speaking nonsense, and choose your next case.”

Elle wanted to clap back, but she felt heat building up in her loins. Part of her wanted Jack to keep humiliating her, to treat her like a petulant child. Eve took the measure of the full extent of this transformation. Trying to silence those pleasurable thoughts, she pointed to a new case.

“Good girl! It’s nice to get such an obedient contestant once in a while… Now Chrissi, why don’t you tell us what’ s in case 10?”

“There’s like, a cute dress, Jack. Isn’t that the clothing thingie?”

“Absolutely, Chrissi. I’m sure you’ll be happy Elle, we’re offering you a nice makeover for free!”

Elle was a bit annoyed to get two transformations in a row, but the wardrobe one was a safe option. She would probably be able to put her new mind to use after the show to find a loophole if the punishment was too harsh.

Cheer up! – Elle will be constantly wearing cheerleaders outfits, predominantly the uniform from her high school’s team. She will also gain a proficiency in gymnastics and will feel compelled to partake in cheerleading routines when she sees them.

Victorian – Let’s really put the English in English literature. Elle will only be able to wear cliché nineteenth century outfits like gowns and corsets. As a bonus, she’ll get a proper’s lady training complete with posh mannerisms and accent.

Southern comfort – Elle will become your typical country gal, down to the shirt, cowboy boots and accent.

Sleeping beauty – Négligée, nighties, pajamas… With this transformation, Elle will look like she just left bed and hasn’t had time to dress yet. She’ll have to stay in sleepwear for the rest of her life.

Ecological – Elle’s wardrobe won’t directly change, but any piece of clothing she wears will see its quality diminish drastically. Her clothing will wear out and get torn very quickly, and Elle will have to wear them until they literally fall off of her.
