Sergal Grins never bring anything good
#2 of Tera does weird things to Jason.
[rated adult for sexual innuendo and strong fetishistic content]
This is the next part in the "Tera does weird things to Digital" series. :P It is also somewhat of an introduction to the newer brain children, Abroms and Blizzi. Basically, you'll want to meet Blizzi since they are friendly. Abroms is... well... Abroms may try to turn you into a plant or a planthro because for some reason they can only seem to relate to planthros and a few other prism dragons. :P
Of course not like I'll be able to do much except just stand there, photosynthesize, and do plant things.

The door to the greenhouse in Teradyne's hideaway opened and closed followed by a few footsteps on the ground. The prism dragon smiled to hirself and immediately bolted over to where the door was. That must have been Jason - shi had something quite great planned for him inside the greenhouse.
Waiting for hir at the entrance to the greenhouse looked to be some kind of morphic floatzel. Shi tilted hir head as the mustelid pokémorph looked around, seemingly distracted by something that was close to the door. The morph had his eyes peeled to a small little 'tree' by the door that was designed after a sudowoodo - it wasn't a real sudowoodo, just a prop designed to test out squirtbottles.
"I don't recall seeing you around here before - who are you?" Tera asked the floatzel.
He immediately looked over from the fake sudowoodo and made eye contact with Tera. Shi immediately recognized those eyes from when shi hypnotized him into a Beartic - that was Jason right there. He waved to hir and then reached for something around his wrist.
"Uhm, Tera?" The floatzel spoke in Jason's voice, "How do you turn this hardlight thing off?"
"Oh, you're using one of those." Shi responded. "Here, let me show you. Why did you walk around the hideaway like that?"
Tera gestured for the 'floatzel' to hold out his hand so shi could check the small projector. As Tera pressed a few buttons on the hardlight projector, the 'floatzel' seemed to immediately vanish, leaving in place the human that shi had invited into the hideaway and hir greenhouse.
"Well I know the rules of the hideaway. Some of the morphs here are uncomfortable around humans. D1G1-P0T would have conscripted me to join the Synthetic Revolution, Auva probably would have used her omnivice to turn me into a pooltoy so... yeah. I figured that borrowing that hardlight projector so I looked like a morph would have been the safest bet."
Tera laughed at what Jason said.
"Oh no, I told most of the morphs to let any human male walk through, so they were prepared. If anything I thought you might have been caught in one of the trap eggs!"
"The trap eggs?"
"Long story, but you're lucky you didn't get caught in one of those."
"I won't even ask..." Jason said. "Alright, so what was it you wanted to show me?"
"Oh! Yes. You know Earth plants better than anybody else I know. I was wondering if you could tell me what I should put right here. You did want hands-on experience with plants."
Tera lead Jason through the greenhouse - filled entirely with all sorts of plants that he couldn't recognize. And some that he could. One apparent 'plant' he saw looked to be a little Snover who shied away at seeing the human pass by. Strange, why would there be something like that inside the greenhouse, it was part ice type after all.
Jason didn't bother to ask any questions about it. So many of these plants seemed so alien to him - but there were a few that looked familiar. It must have been amazing to have so many different plants that wouldn't attract such pests or introduce diseases to each other. Then again things could have been made sterile before being introduced to the greenhouse, and the technology they used in here was much more advanced than what most humans could accomplish now.
Finally, the prism dragon led Jason over to a blank patch of soil. Pure black soil, somewhat squishy looking and smelling nicely of wet soil. That was a good sign; Tera must have recently put it there. It must have been volcanic soil as well, the most fertile ever. Jason looked over at the patch to get an idea of how big it was. One could plant a lot in there.
"This is it, right?" Jason asked.
"Exactly. I figure you would know what would fit here."
"Well, see, the question isn't what would fit here but what YOU would want to grow in here."
"Oh no, see this is a special mixture." Tera said. "Come on - you'll have to step in there."
Shi grabbed the human's arm to pull him in, but he resisted.
"That looks wet - you don't want to compact the soil!"
"Oh come on, it won't do anything. Oh, and take those off."
Jason looked down at his flip-flops, and then at the prism dragon.
"Won't my feet get dirty?"
"You can always wash them." Tera said. "Come on - don't make me hypnotize you again."
Jason shuddered - he remembered what Tera had told him about making him spend a few weeks as a Beartic. Rather than let Tera have hir fun with him and make him follow hir commands, he figured he'd just play along. Tera guided him into the soil, bare feet sinking a little into the wet soil. He felt how smooth it was, squishing the small pieces of soil in between his toes as he walked through the soil.
"Now stand there." Tera said. Jason stopped walking and stood in front of the Prism dragon.
"So what exactly are you doing?" Jason asked.
Tera's expression suddenly morphed into a smile. Jason immediately recognized that wide smile - it was a sergal grin. Shi clearly had something planned right now. He squeezed his eyes shut before shi started hypnotizing him into something more than a beartic again (Then handed him to Lenne).
The Prism dragon immediately removed all of Jason's clothing. He shuddered a bit as he covered himself up, the cold air. Out of bile curiosity he opened is eyes and looked at Tera. What in the heck was shi doing?
"Hey! I'm not into that whole thing!" he protested.
"Don't worry." Shi said, as the dragon quickly pulled the watch away from the nude human. "I'm not going to do anything like have sex with you. I thought you would instead prefer to become a little more hands on with plants."
"That's what you took me in here for but I don't LIKE being nude in the hideaway! I don't have fur or some thick skin with tolerance for that like some of the morphs around here! I don't intend to get THAT close with these! And I'm sure that Snover is laughing at me."
"Oh no, they aren't." Tera responded. "Blizzi just a little shy around humans. Be glad it's not Abroms, but Abroms doesn't like to be around this side of the greenhouse. Just calm down."
"Wait, who are Blizzi and Abroms?" Jason asked.
"Oh, you'll meet them, eventually. Probably just Blizzi - Abroms isn't exactly your type given what they love to do."
"Oh, do you mean the Snover?" Jason asked.
Tera nodded. Jason figured that Tera referred to the Snover as "they"
"Now relax and stand right there for me please."
The dragoness backed up a little and pulled something out of hammerspace that was all too familiar to Jason. It was hir omnivice! Before Jason could say anything, shi swiped a card and placed it out of sight. Almost immediately, a strange tingling sensation spread across Jason's body, as he started to feel heavier.
"What card was that?" Jason asked.
"Oh, you'll like it. It's custom-made." Tera said, as Jason felt his feet sinking into the dirt a little. He glanced down, trying to pull his feet out of the soil.
Surprisingly he could still lift his feet - although the skin on his legs looked darker. He bent his knees to and lifted off his right foot, ignoring how deep his left foot was sinking in the ground. Strange, it felt a little rougher, and much drier. His entire leg quickly dried, all hair falling right off, as it started to inflate. It looked like a miniature tree-trunk.
Jason set his foot down, noticing his right foot was higher above than his left in the ground. How wet and deep was this soil? He was sinking right on in. Tera grabbed onto Jason's hand and acted as a support as he pulled his left tree-trunk leg out of the ground. He left a small hole behind, bits of dirt sliding off his scaly legs. He took a few steps forward, so he wouldn't sink again.
The changing human took one look down at his massive legs, noticing his stance widen. The strange rough scaly skin spread all the way up to his thighs. Jason's toes went numb as they fused together. His insides felt almost like liquid, or molding clay. It wasn't painful - thankfully the omnivices made sure of that. But it felt really weird, when Tera wasn't hypnotizing him into not noticing the changes.
Three hardened claws emerged from his new three-toed feet, as his spine felt a yanking sensation. A few minutes later, a thick but short tail splurted out, as Jason felt himself leaning forwards, rather than backwards with the new weight attached to him. He still felt heavier and heavier, like he was being filled with lead.
Then he finally felt a counterbalance, as Jason felt his stance widening. His back seemed to bulge. He couldn't feel specifically what was happening, but he had a good idea on what was. Jason felt around his back, feeling a much much wider and bigger back than before. His back was a tad too large to feel over it with just his hands. Suddenly, he felt a counterweight forming on his back, left arm bumping a little into it.
While Jason still had rather smooth human skin on his arms, he felt over this strange weight protruding from his back. This strange new appendage was somehow numb... like wood. He tapped on the wooden limb, then at his back, hearing a small knocking noise as he touched something hard and numb. Jason looked over at his front - spotting a chest and stomach that was much more broad and wide than it was before. And a lot lot more brown, the same kind of brown that made up the scales on his legs. Tera almost seemed to shrink a bit in front of him - no, he was getting bigger.
Several more spikes emerged from the side of his shell - now Jason immediately recognized what Tera had done to him. Shi had swiped a Torterra card. That weight must have been the tree. Jason expected his arms to bulk up and mirror his legs, except he noticed a few details that didn't look very non-anthro on him. While Jason looked at his forearms and waited for them to cover in brown scales, he felt a squeezing around his face.
Jason clenched his eyes shut and gritted his teeth, as his face inflated into a rather conical looking shape. His nose flattened and seemed to liquefy in front of him, melting over his mouth into what looked like a bit of a beak. He opened his eyes, seeing a green void in his vision. Jason tapped on the 'beak', as his tongue seemed to inflate, pushing against his still human looking teeth. He must have been a Torterra morph.
As he tried to reach over to his hair, his hand bumped into a rough spike. Jason brought his other hand up to his head, feeling an identical spike. Thankfully it wasn't sharp, almost like it had blunted from ages of erosion. Jason suddenly had another thought - he was still nude!
"Wait, that's still not-"
"I made sure you were a 'neuter'." Tera smirked, as shi kept watching Jason's arms. Shi must have read his mind. He breathed a bit of a sigh in relief. Jason's hands seemed almost comically out of place on his morphic Torterra body - almost like a non anthro tyrannosaurus rex.
This remedied itself as they lengthened and thickened, hair completely falling out onto the ground. His hands bulked up immensely, but still not losing any mobility. He spread his wide hands, looking over his rough brown paws. Small grey claws emerged from his fingertips, blunted just like the spikes.
He looked down at the prism dragon, almost towering over hir now. He had seen a rather large looking rapidash as he walked through the hideaway - perhaps he was just as tall. Though he must have weighed about a thousand or so pounds. Shells weighed a ton, especially with that hunk of wood on his back and the spikes.
"How are you feeling, Jason?" Tera asked.
"Uhm... mostly heavy and weird." He shifted around, hearing the rustling of the leaves on his tree. "This might be awkward."
"I always figured you would have made a nice Torterra morph." Tera said as shi walked up to the morph and rubbed over his belly. Surprisingly, he could still feel hir scaly hand against his blly.
"Uh-thanks! So am I like, part grass now?"
"Oh yes you are." Tera said. "Torterras are grass and ground. You can sort of feel the sunlight now, right?"
Jason shook his head.
"Well focus a little."
Jason closed his eyes and tried to listen on something. This had to have been one of those sensitivity drills or something. Suddenly, he could feel a sensation coming from his back. The tree seemed to be sending some kind of signal to him.
Greenhouse. Fertile. Nice and warm. Moist enough. Stomatas in the leaves open. Photosynthesis normal. Xylem and Phloem not clogged.
"So if I eat, will that feed the tree?" Jason opened his eyes.
"Oh yes. Not to mention you have moss growing on your shell. Except that's just a side effect of being a walking air purifier."
"Really?"
"Oh of course. With that tree, you'll never asphyxiate from carbon dioxide. See?"
Tera flipped right off the ground and onto Jason's shoulders. He couldn't react very fast - Torterras were quite slow after all. Tera rested on the edge of Jason's shell and placed hir hands around Jason's muzzle, pinning it closed. He widened his eyes.
Instinctively he tried to open his mouth as his lungs started to burn. He reached up at the prism dragon to try and get hir off. He actually shook himself but Tera was a little stronger than he was. After all, he wasn't used to this body yet. As he waited to replicate his gryphonic friend's favourite past time, he saw spots in his vision. This was it.
But he never felt himself go unconscious. In fact, he still felt himself "breathing". He didn't feel the gas exchange going on at the tree on his back though. It still felt like he could hold his breath indefinitely. Tera let go of his muzzle, as Jason instinctively opened his mouth and sucked in a lot of air.
"Liked that?" Tera said as shi climbed off of the Torterra morph, and walked in front of him.
"I can do without the attempted asphyxiation and the breath control, but is that what it's like to breathe as a plant?"
"Well...." Tera suddenly developed another sergal grin. "I didn't tell you something. See, I had a rather nice idea. You're standing in soil. Nice fertile soil. And when somebody says the words, 'Be afraid of the bark'.... You'll see!"
As soon as the Prism Dragon spoke, Jason suddenly felt quite stiff, as his legs seemed to feel even heavier. There was an odd squirming sensation around his back, right at the base of his tree. Jason's eyes widened as the squirming stopped. He tried to lift his feet again, only they seemed to stick to the ground.
Tentacle-like protrusions emerged from the base of his feet and buried their way into the ground, immediately feeling towards where water was. Wait, he felt cool water, and it seemed to be sucked into his roots ... he even felt something odd. Déjà vu, it seemed to feel like... food? Nutrients! Tera was turning him into a plant!
Jason's knees were locked in place as he continued to struggle against the malignant "woodening" sensation. Out of bile curiosity, he reached down and felt over his brown legs. They felt just like nice rough bark on the outside, but he felt his fingers and 'claws' against his thighs. Just like they were still made out of flesh. He rapped on his thigh with his claws, feeling only nothing but solid wood. The nutrients seemed to immediately flow up into his body from the soil, immediately locking his tail as his arteries, vessels and capillaries were replaced with xylem and phloem. Blood no longer flowed inside his body since he no longer needed it. After all, he could just split water and get oxygen from there. The tree felt less part of his shell and more... part of him entirely. The moss on the back of his shell still remained, but he couldn't feel it anyways.
Tera smirked and rubbed over Jason's hardened chest, still bearing that sergal grin. Surprisingly, he could feel hir hand against his chest. Maybe he still hadn't lost his nerve sensation. He was distracted even more when Tera lowered hir hands down his body, all the way down to his crotch. Thankfully it didn't feel any different than the rest of him - but right now, he was thankful that shi removed those bits. He didn't want to endure countless comments about "morning wood".
He noticed a few seconds later that he wasn't breathing - and his heart had silently stopped beating. After all, he no longer required such interior organs. Tera still held that sergal grin, as shi stepped away from stroking his thighs. Jason now noticed that his arms were still free - the sensation of stiffening had slowed down.
"Tera, come closer." Jason said, as he pulled back his right hand to smack hir for doing that to him.
Unfortunately, he couldn't get his hand that far as his shoulder completely stiffened, scales becoming bark, encasing the inner tissue. Jason's other arm seemed to bend at the shoulder, bringing his arm up at an almost ninety degree angle. His elbow straightened out, but he worked it back to a gradual bent sensation with several loud creaking noises. Before his muscles and bones completely turned into wood, he fought to keep both of his hands in a clenched fist. Thankfully, he spotted them staying such, only being able to make out details of fingers and former claws if one looked very very closely.
Everything below Jason's neck was now completely stiff and wooden. The prism dragon smirked; reaching all the way up up to stroke his chin while it was still flesh and bone.
"Any last words, while you still have vocal chords?" Shi said.
"I didn't mean becoming THIS hands-on with plants!" Jason protested again.
As soon as he finished talking, the cast of bark completely spread up to his jaw, coating his mouth. He was left silent in seconds. His small 'spikes' turned brown with wood, just like the other spikes and the lining of his shell. Jason no longer felt a tongue inside his mouth, just living wood. His world finally went dark altogether, as the last of his flesh turned into wood. The only details of his eyes having been there at all were two knots forming a spiral pattern, which he couldn't see out of.
But that wasn't all. Jason could still feel and hear. He still heard the background noises of the greenhouse, and started to feel small sensations on his limbs, where his hands used to be. Several twitching sensations made themselves known at the tips of his spikes. Soon, he felt himself breathing... No. Respiring. Photosynthesizing. If only he could have seen what happened.
More and more leaves popped up around the top of his head, where his hair would have been had Torterra not been naturally bald. Finally, the twitching sensations stopped, as Jason's body fell gradually still, save for his leaves gently swaying. Tera looked over hir creation, placing hir hands behind hir back, just above the base of hir tail.
Just a few moments ago, this had been a Torterra. Now, it couldn't be considered anything but a tree. The tree that normally stood on the back of a Torterra's shell looked like a third limb that had grown out of its "back". Its tail hovered gently above the ground a little bit. Tera knew that if shi moved more soil around it, it would too root and form a tripod, stabilizing the new tree even more. Small twigs and leaves came out of its head, the tips of all of the spikes, and its other two limbs. Moss still grew on one side of the tree - conveniently Tera had made sure that before shi turned the Torterra into a tree, that it was on the north side.
"Mmm," Shi hummed out loud, "I do quite like you like this. I think turning you back from a Beartic was a good idea after all. I always did think that you would have made a better grass type."
Of course, Jason couldn't respond - trees didn't speak after all.
"Don't worry." Tera rubbed across the tree's trunk, "There is a way to turn you back. I made it so you could still feel my touch and hear what I'm saying, since it is an audio cue."
The prism dragon was interrupted as soon as shi heard a small plodding noise on the pathway. Shi quickly turned around, recognizing the small Snover walking towards them.
"Well Blizzi, what do you think of this?" Shi asked the Snover.
The Snover walked over, sighing a little bit as they touched the fertile soil. The Snover looked over the two kilometer or so tree. It nodded its approval.
"We certainly approve." Blizzi said. "We almost wish we could have met this 'Jason' before you turned him into a tree."
Tera knelt down and rubbed over the cool Snover's head.
"Oh you will get to know him eventually... when he is a person that is."
"What about..."
"Oh, no. He wouldn't like Abroms at all." Tera said. "I know Abroms loves to go around the more... naughty side of the greenhouse and tease them. Does Abroms respect this?"
"Abroms will. We will simply take care of everything here." The Snover responded.
"Good. Make sure you keep it well watered... and don't let your more abominable alter ego go crazy if you suddenly evolve. I know you become Abroms when you see people turned into trees like this one." Shi placed hir hand against the tree, leaning against it.
"We won't." The little Snover said.
"Good morph." Tera said as shi stepped away, gently patting him again.
"But tell me... what will cause him to turn back into a Pokémorph?" Blizzi asked.
Tera smiled and whispered something. It wasn't like the tree could tell someone to say it anyways. The snover nodded.
"I promise I'll never say it."
"Good. I may move it too.... It's a good thing trees like this are easier to move than others. Maybe I can show it off at an omnivice exhibition. By the way, Blizzi, have you seen my Tree Rex figure?"
"No. I think Abroms stole it again and tried to plant it."
Tera facepalmed and sighed to hirself.
"Great... never thought I'd have to hide certain Skylanders from them..."
The dragoness walked deeper into the greenhouse, where Abroms normally lay. However, shi stopped to look back at the tree.
"Don't worry Jason. I promise to turn you back. Eventually. Sometime. Just hold tight."
Of course, it wasn't like the tree had a choice in the matter.
