Nicole Everton, Scientist, 27, F

Log One, Day One. Location: Theodore National Park. Subject Name: Nicole Everton. Age 27. Female, Unmarried, Single for five years.

"This is Dr. Nicole Everton, I am recording from the parking lot of 'Theodore National Park' I've decided to take this experiment to a hiking trail partly to keep me away from any unexpected factors, the park is out of season so the expectation that I'll run into anyone out here is extremely low. And technically I did steal these doses of GodivaX4 as they have yet to be rated for human tests. However due to the fact that I helped work on this I've decided that the only testing shall be done on myself, not human or animal subjects, as such I'm out here, on my own with about two week's worth of food, I'll be making regular audio logs like this one while also recording the whole thing with a device implanted in the underside of my right ear. So uh...yeah, wish me luck"

Turning her recorder off Nicole slipped the small device into her jacket pocket. Checking herself in her rear view mirror, she took a deep breath. She was fit from a lifestyle of hiking like this, beautiful from a lifestyle of needing to bat her eyelids when her experience didn't get her way, and now she was out here potentially throwing her career away in order to prevent unneeded testing. It was hard for Nicole not to see echoes of what she was doing here in her predecessor, Dr. Cara Everbloom. Nicole steeled herself, what she was doing was noble, Cara's downfall was out of desperation.

Getting out of the car she checked her surroundings. It was the tail end of Spring, just warm enough that hiking wouldn't be unpleasant, but also too soon for the park's events. Thus the parking lot was empty, save for her car and one or two others, though they seemed more interested in the food truck parked off in the corner. Closing the driver door she went to the back of her car, retrieving her pack before locking the car and setting off.

Pine forest, that was more or less all that lay before her. As a national park it's wildlife was relatively harmless, a few herds of deer maybe. But she was confident she wouldn't blunder into a wolf or a bear. In fact what she was most worried about was the people, if she was caught in a compromising state. Nicole still hadn't taken her first dose, she still had that safety net...honestly she was still at a stage where she could return the doses and nobody would even know. But science cannot be done without risks, she'd come out here so that the risk would be hers alone. When she'd gotten to a point where she was confident in her isolation, she took that first dose.

Log Two, Day One.

"I've taken my first dose, it went down as easily as expected, I was almost worried that taking it without water would make it harder to swallow but- Anyway, I'm experiencing no...immediate effects, perhaps the changes at first are subtle? I may only know in an hour or more...maybe it takes a day..." Ending the recording she bit her lip, a delayed reaction wasn't unreasonable, even the best painkillers took a bit to work properly. It did fill her with anticipation though, almost a thrill, both for the scientific process and for what may happen. Nicole wasn't exactly modest, she'd wear a bikini to the beach, low cut dresses that sort of thing, but she wasn't someone who'd show off...at least, she thought so. So why was she anticipating what might happen? Why were her feelings starting to wind like a spring ready to release?

Nicole carried on walking, opting to occupy her mind with looking at the trees, listening to birdsong and trying to distinguish one from the other. She barely noticed how tight her clothes were feeling, not in an unpleasant way yet, no more like how one might feel a scarf was wrapped around them too hard. It wasn't that hot she thought to herself, as she unbuttoned her coat, exposing the sweater she was wearing underneath.

After a good few miles she stopped to take a break. She'd worked up quite a sweat, but wasn't sure if that was an effect of the ****, or due to her exercise. Taking a look back and it was clear she'd trekked into a less walked hiking trail, sure there was still a path, but it wasn't as cared for as the rest. Walking a short bit off the trail she set her pack down, then set herself a tent up.

With a decent campsite set up and the daylight waning, Nicole began to undress for the night. She didn't think it strange until her panties fell to the floor...she'd never sleep nude like this. The contradiction in her behaviour made her bite her lip in thought, then she got her recording device out again.

Log Three, Day One.

"First alterations noticed, though I doubt they are the first changes that have occurred. As I was changing to sleep I...well I'm standing naked at my campsite and besides my deliberate thinking, I have no inclination to dress. I've brought nightclothes, I'd planned on sleeping with them and my underwear. However I am...comfortable? It's an odd feeling, but I'll pursue it rather than fighting it"

Putting her recorder away, Nicole blushed at the thought of her out here like this. She was out in the wild, naked, like an animal. The idea was thrilling, freeing. It almost made her want to forget any other attachments, live out here like this. But there were several things grounding her, she'd miss hot showers and chocolate for one, so that idea was abandoned. Even still, as she crawled into her sleeping bag her thoughts had been opened with possibility.
