The restroom (you’re not a liar, plus there’s a mirror there)

After being excused, you rushed to the nearest bathroom, desperate for a chance to try out the device in private. There was little worry of being interrupted, it was right in the middle of the class period and he was on the far corner of the school. Bursting into the bathroom you faced the mirror, device in hand. Navigating to the main menu, you clicked on the option reading “height.” You changed the value from “5’ 6”” to “6’ 4”.” Immediately you felt a cracking sensation as your bones lengthened, and a sense of vertigo as your height increased by well over half a foot.

Finally, you were a respectable height! After lifting your shirt to admire your new muscles once more, you turned your attention back to the device, exploring the capabilities it had to offer. Your nose has always bothered you, and you found options to customise it under the “Face” menu. You reformed your face shape slightly, and were even able to get rid of your flat-footedness by removing it from the description under a menu titled “Stature.” Scrolling down the near endless set of menus one caught your eye. It was the only one with a symbol next to it, a closed padlock. “Mind.” Mind? You thought you had only wished to change your body? Though you guessed the brain was part of the body after all…and stature was part mentality too, wasn’t it?
