Dieter hummed to themselves as they walked around their apartment, dusting off their shelves as they continued to work on the spring cleaning they had set out to do that weekend. The synth lion had been a bit neglectful since their job had been more demanding on their time as of late and this was the first time in a month that he had been home for more than just eating or sleeping. They also knew that this moment of respite would be rather short-lived as when they left their workplace for the weekend their boss informed them that it would likely ramp up once more. As they took a cloth and polished the small statue of a deer that sat next to a similar gryphon one they let out a sigh, wondering what it would be like to have a change of pace in their life rather than just the usual day to day activity that they had gotten used to.

Just as the lion put down the one stone figurine and began to work on the other they heard a noise that caused them to look back. It sounded like it came from their bedroom and as Dieter put down the cleaning supplies they had been using an odd sense of déjà vu came over them. They quickly went over in order to check out what it was that had been the source of the noise but when they walked over to the bedroom they found that there was no one there. The room was oddly warm however and it made them wonder if perhaps something was wrong with the heating vents as they went over and put their ear to them.

After standing there for a few seconds and hearing nothing Dieter just figured that it was just their imaginations, and as they looked out their window they found that the sun was already starting to set below the horizon. A whole day spent cleaning… the synth lion sighed slightly as they knew it had to be done, though they had hoped they might do something exciting as they walked back out into their main living area in order to finish up the kitchen before making dinner in it and just sitting down in front of the television. As they walked back in however they stopped dead in their tracks when they found that there was someone inside it, their jaw dropping when they saw a black-feathered phoenix standing there next to the shelf that they had just cleaned examining his figurines.

“Um, excuse me," Dieter said, which prompted the creature to look up at them with glowing blue eyes while continuing to touch the antlers of the figurine that the lion had named Squall. “Please don't touch those, they are really important to me and I don't want them to break."

“Oh, I know exactly how important they are to you," the creature replied as a smirk appeared on his face, licking his beak as he pulled his hand away and began to approach the confused synth. “What's funny though is that I don't think you do, at least not entirely. You have quite the tangled timeline, although having divine intervention and a bloodline such as yours can certainly account for such a thing."

“Wait wait," Dieter quickly said as they held their hands up and waved them about as the phoenix stopped about a foot away from them. “Look, I don't know who you are or how you got into my place but I think you have the wrong synth."

“Oh, I suppose I didn't introduce myself, did I?" the phoenix said as he once more closed the gap between the two until Dieter had the guy right in front of him as he found himself frozen in place. “My name is Slypher, and I work for an organization that would take ages to explain but the long and short of it is that we meddle in the timelines of others. For myself its cleaning up and maintaining certain anomalous timelines that aren't directly involved with us, which is why you are exactly the right synth that I'm looking for. While explaining everything would take some time I have a much easier way to download all the information in that little head of yours, all you have to do is look into my eyes and relax…"

Though Dieter still was not sure of what this Slypher intended for them they found themselves doing what they were told, and as their gazes locked together the eyes of the phoenix seemed to pulsate. The lights were… mesmerizing, and the more the synth lion looked into them the more they found themselves unable to move. Their feline jaw began to drop slightly as they began to feel like they were in a different situation than standing there in their apartment and as the tips of the feathers on the creature's wings began to glow with a similar blue light they wrapped around them and suddenly they were in an office. It wasn't their original office and as their body moved without them commanding it Dieter then felt the scene shift until they were in what looked like an Egyptian temple, except that their body had become that of a gryphon as they served what appeared to be the ancient god Horus.

Even though that scene only lasted for a few moments Dieter felt like they had lived the life as the falcon god's servant for ages before the scene shifted again to a forest. They were there once more moving about but this time they were a muscular deer man in the company of others, which given the state of all their nudity caused the synth lion to blush. The three were just running about however and even though they had no reason to know this they believed they were seeing themselves as a Hind that was loyal to the Greek god Artemis. By the time Dieter found the phoenix pulling away from them and they were once more grounded firmly in their apartment it felt like they had lived two separate lives, albeit briefly as they still had the sensation of being the gryphon and deer men.

“So now you can see why you are, in fact, the one that I'm looking for," Slypher said as he gestured back towards the figurines. “Those figurines you so adore are precipitations of your other lives that bleed into this one, the place where I work calls them Markers and show lives that have experienced intense or significant alterations to their timelines through the intervention of powerful or multidimensional creatures. As you experienced yourself you are definitely one of those creatures since you are descended from the bloodline of the Nemean Lion."

“I… um… alright then," Dieter replied as they still found themselves overwhelmed, Slypher motioning for them to head over and set down at their kitchen table while explaining the process of seeing other lives can be a bit disorienting. “So why are you here then? Are you trying to stop me from making more of these alternate timelines or something?"

“Oh heavens no," Slypher said with a chuckle. “I intend on making one of my own, at least if you're willing. That desire that you sensed when you were those other lives has suffused its way through to other timelines, so I have come to you to offer a deal in order to cultivate that for both our gains."

As Dieter sat there the phoenix got them a glass of water as he explained that those with such powerful alternate forms that it would create Markers in other timelines could draw upon them with a little additional help. While the synth lion would have probably lived their entire lives without tapping into such a potential Slypher told him that with a bit of his power they could actually have the potential to unlock the power to change into those other forms. But there was a catch that the phoenix mentioned; if they did this and chose to embrace the power that was deep within them then it would require them to be bound to Slypher, to serve him with the abilities that would be channeled through their body. Slypher told Dieter that this was no small decision and saying yes would not only dramatically alter his fate but also cut his timeline, merging it with the looped one of the phoenix so that they no longer would be affected by the constraints or rules of time itself.

As Slypher said that it was their final decision Dieter once more found themselves at a loss for what to do as the phoenix boiled the mug of water they had gotten for themselves just by holding it while dipping a tea bag. They had just been thinking about how they wanted their lives to be different, and perhaps that was the reason that they found themselves with the ability to make that choice in the first place. When they asked if they could have some time to think about it the avian creature shook his head and said that this was a one-time offer and if they didn't accept it then they would move on to the next timeline in order to continue to get what he wanted. Though it was clear that Slypher was there for his own personal gain Dieter didn't sense any malicious intent towards them, and as they recalled the rather handsome creatures that the deities had turned them into they couldn't help but feel a shiver run down their spine.

“Alright, I'll do it," Dieter finally said as Slypher sipped his tea. “What would I need to do?"

“You've already made your contribution," Slypher replied as he set the mug down and stood up. “All you have to do is strip down and stand there while I help manifest that new power inside of you while pulling away a bit of your old self in order to make room. Now we could do this the normal boring way or we could have ourselves a little fun, and while for the latter I would say that we can move this to the bedroom I think that it would be more recommended that you remain in a standing position."

Dieter nodded and found themselves standing up as the phoenix approached them once more. While they were about to take off their clothing Slypher expedited the process with a snap of his fingers, which caused blue flames to engulf the synth briefly and burn away everything to reveal the brown metal of his body. Though the lion complained slightly about suddenly having a set of clothing be turned to ash, especially in a place they had just cleaned, the phoenix whispered in their ear that they wouldn't be worrying about that rather soon as they both moved to the living room. At this point Dieter realized that Slypher hadn't been wearing anything either as the lean body of the bird suddenly pressed up against their back with their hands sliding across their chest.

The lion synth let out a shiver of pleasure as those blue-clawed hands quickly drifted lower down their metallic body, tracing down with eager desire until it reached between the smooth expanse of their groin. Dieter let out a soft gasp as they could feel their arousal building that caused their cock to start to push out, which as soon as it did the phoenix was quick to start to stimulate it while whispering something into their ear. While they couldn't decipher what Slypher was saying, whatever it was only seemed to deepen the passionate sensations within them as they stood there in the middle of their own living room. As they felt the maleness of the phoenix start to press up against the small of their back Dieter suddenly started to see those lives they had been shown before, except this time it was a much more adult scene with Horus having Jiri the gryphon bent over and pounding into his hole before it switched to the other two deer spit-roasting Squall with their cocks.

As the pleasurable feelings continued to build Dieter could feel the amorous phoenix continue to shift his position around, which to their surprise had him moving so that he was once more in front of them. As the feathered body of the other man moved about the lion synth could also see something that was happening to his own, wherever the two touched they could see blue strands of energy appear between them. It was as if it was a constant electric shock wherever the two touched, though as the energy seemed to flow into Slypher the sensation that the synth got was an extremely pleasant one. Eventually Dieter found the phoenix knelt down in front of him, though as he tried to angle his head down in order to watch as the beak nuzzled against their fully-erect member he found themselves unable to move their neck much more than an inch or so.

“Feeling a bit stiff in more than one way, are we?" Slypher joked as they continued to stroke the throbbing member with his hand while the tendrils of energy that could be seen swirling on Dieter's body like smoke that began to drift towards their groin. “Don't worry, the effect is only temporary, go ahead and just relax. Enjoy the benefits while I get you as hard as a rock."

When Dieter attempted to nod they found that their head no longer moved at all, their body frozen in position with their gaze just able to watch as Slypher opened his mouth and licked against their cock with his tongue. The energy that had coalesced down there was pulled briefly into the phoenix like he had breathed it in, and as they did the lion found their muscles relaxing. While normally that would mean that they would be sent to the ground they found that they were still perfectly upright, in fact when they attempted to bend their legs at all they found that the limbs wouldn't respond. It dawned on them that it wasn't that his body wasn't responding to their commands, it was that it couldn't as they noticed that their hands that had been slightly outstretched had started to turn a slate grey at the tips that was slowly starting to spread outwards.

Slypher just smirked up at them as they started to engulf their cock with their beak, the inside surprisingly soft as it began to bob up and down on their shaft. With each suck it caused more of the energy to drift into the avian creature, their feathers and body starting to grow slightly brighter in the dimming light of the room as the same coloration could be seen on their toes and spreading up their feline paws. It was stone; somehow as whatever essence or energy was being pulled out of their body by the phoenix giving them a blowjob caused those areas to become completely petrified. Though Slypher had said that the effect was only temporary Dieter still found a ping of anxiety within the haze of lust and pleasure that was being fed to them by the expert beak and tongue of the creature in front of them.

Though they already couldn't move their muzzle Dieter could feel their mouth start to petrify along with their ears as the stone color shifted through their mane. One thing that they could still move somewhat was their eyes, but as they saw the grey creep up their nose and start to cover their face they found themselves unable to even blink as the entirety of their head was enveloped. They were completely at the whim of this creature causing them to turn to stone and there was something about the situation that made it even more strangely arousing as what little movement they did had was being stolen from them. All they could do was allow the phoenix to continue to pleasure them as their tail froze completely, Dieter feeling the weight of it increase as the metal turned to actual stone just like the rest of their body.

It didn't take long before the lion was more statue than synth and Slypher showed no signs of stopping with the transformation. The clawed hands of the phoenix gripped onto the lion's increasingly stony thighs as they moved their head back and forth vigorously, causing waves of stimulation to cascade through the petrified lion's body as they could see the stone spreading over the lion like wildfire. Soon the phoenix glowed brightly in their living room while the last of the wisps of light that had originally gotten coaxed out of their own form was drawn right down to their cock. The ministrations of the phoenix and the surreal changes to their body had brought Dieter right to the edge, and as the throbbing of their cock ceased and turned to stone just like the rest of them it caused the lion to orgasm that the stone creature could do nothing but ride the wave of.

Slypher eagerly drank down the essence of the lion as the last of the glow left Dieter's body, the only light coming from the phoenix and the dying daylight that streamed in through their windows. Once the phoenix was done they pulled off, which left the maleness he had been sucking on frozen in its erect state right as the cascade of pleasure from the orgasm continued to reverberate through the petrified creature. “Looks like we're done here for a bit," Slypher commented as he walked over and brought up the shades so Dieter could see outside, which the sun was halfway beneath the skyline of the city. “In true fashion for what you're about to become I'll be back once the sun is completely down in order to finish the job, until then I'm sure I've given you enough to think about and it'll allow your new self to develop."

Dieter wasn't quite sure what that meant, but the phoenix suddenly disappeared out of his field of view and left them alone in the silence of their living room. With Slypher saying that he would come back when night fell the stone lion realized that they still had about an hour before the sun disappeared completely, and longer if he decided to wait until it was completely night. With that in mind however they felt strangely comfortable in their position, which made sense since they didn't need to hold any tension in their muscles since they were stone. It was like they could stay like this forever, though they couldn't imagine what it would be like if someone was able to see into their window and noticed a naked lion synth in the middle of their apartment even if they did look like a statue.

Or could they? Statues were outside all the time and some of them were even naked, but anyone that looked at them would consider them to be pieces of art rather than just lewd men or women standing there. Perhaps that would be them, they thought to themselves, they could be the ones that were out there being admired. No one would even know it was them as they stood there naked and something about that caused a thrill to go through their body.

Without realizing it the whispers of the phoenix had once more surfaced in the mind of the synth, but since they had not realized what Slypher was saying to them initially it sounded more like their own internal monologue as they thought more about what it would be like to just be out there. Maybe they wouldn't even be petrified the entire time, Dieter thought as the upper edge of the sun began to disappear behind the buildings, they could go out and move undetected when no one was watching and then if someone tried to find them they could just pretend to be a statue again. No, their own mind corrected themselves, they were a statue, but they were alive, a living statue…

As Dieter's mind continued to corrupt itself the one that helped it along returned, the fingers of the phoenix once more gliding along the smooth polished rock of their bodies. Slypher could sense that the soon to be former lion synth had already started to soak up the vestiges of their new personality and that they just needed to get a body to match. The phoenix was more than eager to help them along as they continued to rub against the stone chest and arms of the frozen man, though as he did he could feel something within start to twitch. It was small, merely an ember, but it was exactly what Slypher had wanted to cultivate and began to feed the flames with his own power just like he had promised.

Though Dieter was only vaguely aware that Slypher had returned they could feel something starting to happen to them as the sensations of pleasure once more rose in their body. While their current statuesque state was passive and inert there was something growing within him, a feeling that was tying itself to the thoughts in their head about what they were supposed to be. Despite being made of stone, or maybe perhaps because of it, Dieter started to feel more malleable, and as that sensation began to grow they could see cracks starting to form in the stone of their hands despite the light in the room getting even dimmer. Once more Slypher started to whisper into their ears, this time another layer of fresh personality as something began to press against his rear.

This time the cock of the phoenix wouldn't be merely rubbing against them, and as Dieter felt it start to push inside they were surprised to find that their petrified tailhole yielded easily to the thick shaft. With the shaft of the magical creature slowly sliding inside of them the lion synth could feel the stone of their butt start to crack as well, only with the power flowing into it he found the transformation accelerating as the sensation of movement began to return. If their mouth was able to move it would have let out a loud groan as their cheeks thickened with muscle as the stone that now seemed to merely cover them broke apart and fell away. Their tail was next and the grey material practically burst off of the appendage as it grew thick at the base and traveled all the way up until a spade formed at the tip that was a similar color to the chips that had fallen away from it.

As the new tail of the creature whipped around Dieter knew that they weren't going to be a lion synth anymore, and they were finding themselves fine with this new information as they were able to see cracks forming on the stone that surrounded their cock while more chunks of it fell away from his fingers. As a set of darker grey claws emerged from the hands that grew and split the stone shell they could feel a pressure that was building in the rest of their body. Bigger, they were growing bigger as suddenly they began to huff and groan while their form filled out with muscle that began to cause fissures in the former lion body. That lion was weak anyway, Slypher whispered as he pushed deeper in to cause a wave of pleasure to emphasize the point and allow the corruption to set, the creature that he was becoming was capable of far more.

He was capable… as the emerging creature heard the words of the phoenix echo in their mind it seemed to swirl into the thoughts that were already occurring. A grunt left the new man's nostrils as his muzzle pushed out, the leonine one falling to the floor to reveal the slightly more reptilian one underneath. As a pair of large horns pierced through the petrified mane of the former lion it caused more to crumble to the floor and the creature within felt the personality of the lion synth fall away as well, revealing the new one underneath that had been percolating and waiting for the phoenix to allow it to bubble to the surface. He definitely was no longer Dieter, and when the new creature thought that the rush of intense euphoria it gave him caused his cock to throb and burst the stone encasing it to reveal the light grey throbbing member that quickly swelled and grew longer.

With the cap that had been restricting him gone the increasingly mobile creature reached down and began to stroke himself with his hand, growling and groaning as the lion mane completely broke away to reveal a beard of bright red fur that lined his jaw. With the creature growing more into his new form his body continued to grow and loud cracking noises could be heard as his swelling frame broke through the synth body that remained on him. His stone feline foot paws practically exploded as his heavy taloned toes pushed their way out, the arches rising up to give it a draconian appearance as he continued to stroke himself. As more of his body was revealed he found that he still had stone-like skin with swirled etchings within that started to glow with a blue light as the phoenix continued to pump his cock into him.

“From the broken remains of your body you have been born anew," Slypher stated as he slowed down his thrusts so that the pleasured male in front of him could calm enough to look at his new body, though it was also to dodge slightly as a pair of bat-like wings pushed their way out of the remaining stone that had covered his back that flared out into the apartment. “You are a gargoyle, a shapeshifter of stone that can exist in plain sight with no one knowing of your existence. Now tell me gargoyle, who are you?"

“Who… who am I…" the deep, gravelly voice of the muscular gargoyle said, gasping slightly as he felt the phoenix slide into his tailhole once more to provoke his corrupted thoughts. “I am Galiren! I am a gargoyle!"

“Very nice," Slypher commented as he stroked down the thick pecs and washboard abs of the man that was now bigger than him. “And tell me Galiren, whom do you serve? Who is your owner?"

“My owner is Master Slypher," Galiren replied, his eyes beginning to glow with a yellow light while the rest of his body continued to shift with blue hues in the engraved lines of his fully revealed form. With the power manifesting inside of him the gargoyle knew everything he said was the truth, these statements being written in the stone of his mind as the last of the lion synth he used to be disappeared from his psyche. “I will serve and protect him, be his servant and his bodyguard as well as his tool and weapon for whatever he needs. My mind, body, and soul belong to him."

That was enough for Slypher to hear and they continued to rut once more, Galiren leaning forward to allow the phoenix easier access as he felt his new muscle twitch and shiver as he got acclimated to them. When he looked out at the window a small part of him knew that normally they would not do such things in the open, but for him it felt like the most natural thing in the world as he continued to pleasure himself as well. A growing part of him wished that someone would see, that they could watch and admire his sculpted physique as the last of his new body settled into place. Eventually Galiren felt Slypher grip his heavy hips and thrust forward as he orgasmed, causing a surge of power to solidify his form as he did the same at his master's beckon.

For a few moments the gargoyle's eyes shifted blue as he was given another power at the climax of their pleasure, but quickly turned back to the normal yellow as the glowing of his body ebbed when Slypher pulled his cock out of him. “It seems that your alternate timelines have done well in preparing you for a role like this," Slypher complemented with a smirk as he still rubbed down the impressive body of his newest toy. “Sometimes there can be a bit of resistance when one finds themselves becoming someone new in body and mind, but it seems you are more than keen to take up your new mantle."

“I am very eager to use these new gifts that you have bestowed upon me," Galiren stated as he knelt down on one knee to the phoenix as soon as he turned around. “Thank you for this power, I will use it to serve you to the fullest extent that I can."

“I'm confident you will," Slypher replied as he motioned for the gargoyle to stand up, and as he did the phoenix pressed a hand to his chest. The stone flesh warmed up quickly for a few seconds and when Slypher pulled back he had a glowing ornate golden key that when Galiren looked at his chest he saw he briefly had the indentation on it before it lifted. “Though we are bound I do a lot of traveling, but with this soul key I can summon you wherever I am whenever I want. Also should I give this key to someone you will recognize them as your owner just as much as myself, though I think it stands to say that I do not need such a trinket for you to recognize it in me."

The gargoyle quickly shook his head and was rewarded with a swelling of pride in his chest, and Slypher allowed Galiren to get a little more used to his form before giving the creature a test drive as he looked around at the apartment of the former lion synth. Already the stone that represented his previous identity was turning to dust, eroding away the more the gargoyle embraced his new identity, and as he looked over at the shelf he saw that the gryphon and deer statues were gone. It was a byproduct of having pruned this particular timeline from the rest of the Dieters in the multiverse, though even with doing that Galiren's existence would no doubt have an effect on the others just like the other two divine beings had with this one. Slypher wondered just how many other lion synths out there suddenly got the ability to shapeshift… if it was anything like his own former form with technomancy it would probably be a fair few, which they would probably thank Galiren for if they knew that his existence was the cause of it.

But that wasn't his job to mitigate timeline cascades, Slypher thought to himself as he got Galiren's attention and got ready to shift to their next place, he had stopped the corruption of divine energy into the rest of the lion synths and now he was going to have fun with his reward for doing it...

******************************************************

Meanwhile in another part of the city the beam of a flashlight shined in the empty hall, illuminating the artwork that hung there that was on display during the day. With it being the middle of the night however there was no one in the art museum but the two security guards that were tasked to make sure no one came in. “South hall clear," the troll security guard said into his radio as he got to the doorway that separated the paintings from the sculpture work. “How are you doing over there Francisco?"

“West hall is being started on now," the voice on the other end of the radio said. “Had to check on an ajar door that turned out to just be the janitor leaving for the day, so I'm a bit behind. Why don't you order what I like when you get back and I'll pick it up at the front entrance after I check the high-security area, alright Larry?"

“You got it," Larry replied. “I was thinking pizza tonight."

“Hey man, order whatever you want," Francisco replied. “It is your birthday after all."

The troll just grinned and went back to the task of his patrol, using his key ring in order to unlock it before stepping inside. He always left this area last as the statues gave him the creeps slightly, some of them felt like they stared at him as he made his way through the hall to make sure there was no one around that wasn't made of stone. It was another quiet night as always though and as he walked through the large open space the only sounds he heard was the squeaking of his own leather shoes against the tile. Just as the troll was about to say that it was another quiet night however something out of the corner of his eye caused him to turn his head.

Near the back of the building there were a few alcoves where they displayed larger pieces, ones that were often ancient sculptures that were taken from ruins and made the rounds in various places like their own museum. As far as he could remember there had been only one marble statue of a dragon with its wings spread and holding a sword and shield, but as he carefully turned the beam of his flashlight down the wall he saw that there was another spot that was occupied as well. It was a large stone gargoyle that would have stood head and shoulders above him even with his troll physique and as he looked it over more closely he was surprised to find that it was also very anatomically correct. It was strange… he had already done a set of rounds that night and he couldn't remember it being there, yet as he stood there looking at it he knew that a statue that was probably thousands of pounds of stone wouldn't have just been set up while he and the other guard were in the control room.

As Larry was about to call in to Francisco to see if he knew anything about it he stopped as he saw the etched swirls in the gargoyle's body start to glow with a golden light, especially the eyes. The troll found himself taking a step back as the creature continued to light up the alcove that it was in as well as the surrounding area. There was something definitely strange going on with this thing, Larry thought to himself, and while he wasn't a big believer in ghosts or the supernatural he could feel the hair on the back of his neck stand on end. Even though his instincts told him to run however he found his feet glued to the spot as the gold light began to spill out from the etchings and completely envelop the statue as Galiren manifested himself.

Though the gargoyle could have just as easily animated himself and done what Master Slypher wanted he found this way to be more subtle, and also way more fun, as a ghostly visage of himself stepped away from his body. The second that the troll had looked into his stone eyes he had started to enthrall him, instilling a low level trance that would prevent the security guard from running as he approached. It wasn't a very powerful hold though and as he got halfway between where he and the guard stood he saw the other man shake his head before gasping in shock at the translucent golden gargoyle that walked towards him. The troll turned to run but by this point it was already far too late, and as Larry tried to get to the door while grabbing his radio he suddenly heard the flapping of wings and something solid pounce on him.

Both the flashlight and the radio slid away from him as he fell to the ground while Galiren shifted around on top of him. With the troll being bigger than most it would make what he had planned to do easier, wiggling his golden fingers before taking them and pushing them into the back of the green-skinned hand beneath them. He heard Larry gasp as he could sense that something had just invaded the personal space of his psyche, though what he noticed more was the fact that his possessed hand had started to move of its own accord. While Galiren enjoyed feeling the man squirm around underneath him he could also sense his fear and anxiety spiking, which the gargoyle resolved with taking his other hand and poking a finger into the head of the security guard and simply shutting those feelings down.

With the guard no longer feeling horrified about being taken over it left Galiren to more fully enjoy what he was doing, sensing that a feeling of both wonder and arousal had taken the place of the former feelings as the gargoyle pushed the rest of his arm into the limb of the troll. Though he could feel the muscles of the physical body tense slightly and grow slightly bigger he made sure not to change anything else and merely take control. Even though the other man wasn't afraid anymore he could still feel the guard squirming around, which was understandable when he could no longer give commands to his arm yet it was moving anyway as he pushed up his upper body. His legs were the next to go and given the weight that was put on them it didn't take much for the gargoyle to slide his own hefty feet into the shoes of the troll even though his form was smaller.

As Galiren started to slide his other arm into the troll while his midsection sank down and disappeared both their heads perked up when they heard the sound of the other guard on the radio check in, stating they thought they might have heard something come from their area. As the troll realized that Francisco was in the area he tried to shout, only for a muffled noise to come out of his mouth as his own hand reached up and covered it. “Shhh…" Galiren hissed in the ear of the troll as he shifted the green fingers so that one was pressed up against Larry's lips as though to shush him. “We'll be joining him soon enough, don't want to ruin the surprise… birthday boy."

Before Larry could do anything else he felt the muzzle of the gargoyle push against the back of his head, causing him to groan as the ethereal creature suffused his essence into the mind of the one he was possessing. A shocked look crossed the troll's face while his eyes began to glow with a golden light and as Galiren pushed all the way inside the face of the security guard pushed outwards briefly. Almost immediately it receded back and as the last of the gargoyle disappeared the look on Larry's face turned to a smirk as he calmly stood back up. There was a moment where he appeared unsteady but once the troll got back to his feet those glowing eyes looked down at his hands as they flexed, the one controlling them feeling the muscles flex as though they were his own… because they were.

“This will do just fine for now," Galiren said, hearing Larry's voice as he stretched a few more things to get used to the tailless, wingless body he was in. “Alright, it's time to get someone that actually has access to what I want." As the glow faded from the eyes of the troll the gargoyle was still in control, picking up his flashlight and radio before calling back that it was just a statue that spooked him and he was heading to the control room. When he heard the voice on the other end chuckle and say that it was fine Galiren used the knowledge of the guard to head towards his destination instead, whistling the birthday song to himself as he did.

Meanwhile Francisco huffed slightly as he got up the stairs to the second floor of the museum, which was considered to be the area where all the high-value stuff was on display. The portly fennec fox hated this part of his rounds but since he was the senior man on the night watch he was entrusted with the codes that would bypass the security system and allow him inside. As he took a second on the bench he looked down at the stairs and wondered how he wasn't in better shape after having to do them every night as he pulled a donut out of his pocket and munched on it. Just as he finished it and set about the task of having to pull himself back up and finish off for the night he heard the sound of someone else coming up the stairs that caused him to pause, only to see a familiar face coming up.

“Larry, what are you doing up here?" Francisco asked from his sitting position. “You know that they don't want both of us on this floor when I bypass the system."

“I know, but there's something that I really need to tell you," Larry said as he went over until he was right in front of the fennec fox which caused Francisco to lean back slightly. “It's something that I found in the sculpture room, but I need you to look at me because I think I can only say this once."

The fennec fox was slightly surprised at the serious tone that was in the troll's voice, but as he nodded and waited to hear what Larry had to say the other man only leaned in a bit closer until his face completely filled his vision. For a few seconds they remained like that in silence but just as Francisco was about to ask if this was some sort of joke the troll's face broke into a grin before it stretched out wide and a second face emerged out of his mouth. “Boo!" Galiren said, which caused the fox to let out a gasp and drop his donut.

That was what Galiren was waiting for and pushed further out of the troll he was possessing, his muzzle sliding into the open maw of the surprised fennec fox. Despite being ethereal in nature he felt himself stretching out the lips of the other man as his essence slithered inside, the fox's eyes rolling back into his head as the gargoyle was quicker with his mental possession than the troll. The gargoyle used the last of his control on the troll to pin the other guard's shoulders to the bench as his entire body slid out of one man's mouth and into the other, compressing down as he continued to shove himself down in. As with the troll the only thing the fennec fox felt was a surge of pleasure as his body twitched and shuddered from suddenly being taken over, his head twitching as they began to glow with a golden light that left the troll as the fur on Francisco's mouth began to shift from yellow to grey.

When the last of the gargoyle's essence left Larry he let out a gasp and fell back onto the floor, landing on his butt as he saw the feet of the creature that had possessed him get swallowed up by his fellow guard. His immediate concern though was the fact that he could move again, which while it took a few seconds for the strength to get back to his limbs he eventually managed to get up on his knees as he felt a sensation of relief. “I can move again!" Larry exclaimed, though his momentary joy was interrupted as he felt a hand on his shoulder before he turned to see Francisco just as the fennec fox bit him on the shoulder. “Ah! Nooooo!"

As soon as Galiren had possessed the vulpine he had no such need to keep their form anymore, and one of the first things he did was regain the fangs that Master Slypher had given him to inject a petrification venom into the troll. It was rather fast acting and all the troll could do was hold up his hand before the poison that coursed through his veins turned the green flesh to stone as Larry let out a gasp. “Relax, it's only temporary," Galiren said as he looked back and grabbed the half-eaten donut, pushing it in Larry's mouth and closing it to muffle him until his head turned to stone just like the rest of him. “And happy birthday."

With the loose end of the security guard tied up Galiren patted the statue of Larry on the head before heading over towards his true target. With the knowledge contained within the fennec fox it was easy for him to put in the code to bypass the alarm system to allow him access inside, though as he made his way to the door he began to feel the pants and shirt of the security guard loosen. It seemed that his new body was interested in more than just his gargoyle muzzle manifesting, Galiren thought to himself as he saw the rather rotund belly of the man starting to get sucked back in, but he had a job to do and wanted to accomplish it before he could have any fun. By the time he had gotten the code in and opened the door though he had to hold up his pants while doing it, the fabric tearing slightly as he could see his slate grey claws starting to manifest.

Fortunately the high-security area wasn't very big and everything was pretty much out in the open for security purposes. It only took a few minutes or so for him to locate the item that was asked of him to steal, which was a bright purple metal collar that was studded with jewels. Though the security guard that he possessed didn't have the ability to bypass the alarm on the case it was easy enough for him to do as he took a claw and used it to cut a hole in the glass. Once it was complete he stuck his hand in and grabbed it, which as soon as he did he could feel that there was definitely power that was contained within… which surprisingly was similar to his master as he left the area and the museum entirely.

As he got out into the courtyard Galiren had to pause as his clothing suddenly went from being entirely too loose to tight in spots, especially around his sleeves and calves as the fennec's limbs began to convert from fat to muscle. By this point Francisco had lost most of his gut to the point where he only had a bit of a stomach left while the mass seemed to be transferred to the rest of his body. A pair of horns could also be felt pushing out of his forehead and his ears were starting to droop as the unchecked corruption of the creature inside of him continued to manifest. This was becoming his body, although it already was since he had used his powers to shunt the spirit of the fennec fox into his statue body that still stood on the pedestal inside the museum.

When Galiren finally got to the meeting point where Slypher had told him to meet he sat down on the lip of the fountain that was there and attempted to pull off the boot on his foot, only for the seams to burst and his gargoyle toes to wiggle free. “So it seems that you've learned quite a bit about your abilities," Slypher said as he poked one of the feet while a second set of pops signaled the similar fate of the second boot. “Including how potent you are when you're possessing another."

“It seems so," Galiren replied, the voice of the fox distorted with his own as the fur of his face was falling away to reveal his stony skin underneath. “I brought the item you asked for Master Slypher. If I may be so bold to ask what it is, for a few brief moments I thought I sensed your power within it."

The phoenix motioned with his fingers to hand it over and Galiren did so immediately, watching Slypher study it intently before he smiled. “It's something that belongs to a former life of mine." Slypher replied coyly before the item vanished in a puff of blue flame. “You did great today, my lovely pet, and I think that this is going to be the start of a beautiful relationship between us. Now it's time for your reward, and since we have someone that's also celebrating I think that they would be more than happy to do so with you as you expand upon your powers."

Galiren wasn't quite sure what Slypher meant until he saw someone else approaching, the phoenix mentioning that he borrowed a bit of his power as the gargoyle saw the stone troll making their way towards him. As this point the fennec fox had been mostly transformed by this point to where there were just patches of yellow fur on his increasingly muscular body, which as he stood up popped the seams of his clothes in several areas while the spade of his tail seemed to push out the fluff of the tip of the fox one behind him. Though Larry was still in his body, unlike the fox that was merely connected to it while residing in the museum statue and which he had taken to entertaining the fennec by having his old body stroke his cock, it was clear that the phoenix was in control of the troll by the glowing blue eyes.

As a tent formed in the pants of the stone troll Galiren decided that he would take his master's advice and push his powers further, and as Larry's eyes shifted in hue from blue to golden he found that he was in control of him now. It was as if the other man was an extension of himself, and as the newly reformed stone gargoyle flexed his wings that emerged from his back he remembered something that he wanted to try. A smirk formed on his muzzle as he walked over and put his clawed hand on the big forehead of the other man, channeling his power into the petrified creature in order to change him. Slypher merely watched in amusement as he saw the last vestiges of the fennec fox disappear while bigger changes were happening to the troll, his body quivering and his clothes tightening as the already muscular man began to swell to even bigger proportions.

Though the phoenix could have easily looked in to see what his toy was doing he wanted to keep it a surprise as the growing bulge in the pants of the security guard quickly gave up the ghost and burst to allow the thick cock behind it to flop out. It was not the shape of one that would be seen on a troll and it caused a smile to form on Slypher's face when he also saw a pair of bumps forming on the head of the transforming man as Galiren backed away. An interesting use of his influence, Slypher thought to himself as the gargoyle beckoned the other man towards the large fountain area. As the stone creature did what he was told he looked around in confusion, as though this was the first time that he saw where he was as he stepped into the water just as his own boot popped away to reveal the hoof underneath.

“Am I… dreaming?" the troll asked, though as he did his voice shifted while his face started to push out into a muzzle and a pair of antlers molded themselves out of his skull. “This is not the Elysium fields…"

“This is just a dream," Galiren whispered into the stretching ear of the dear-headed man, though as they got to the middle of the fountain the rest of his increasingly muscular body followed suit. By this point since the green skin of the troll had already been replaced with the slate grey stone that had originally immobilized him there was little left that would have identified Larry as such, which as the gargoyle continued to stroke the chest of the muscular deer man he knew that it wasn't really him there anyway. “So just relax and enjoy yourself until you wake up, Squall…"

The deer man seemed more than willing to comply, a grin forming as he took better stock of his surroundings which included the even bigger and incredibly hot gargoyle man that stood behind him. The two just took a few moments to enjoy each other's form that Galiren had created, the gargoyle and deer statues kissing deeply as water from the nearby fountain jets cascaded over them. Even though the water was cold it didn't bother them and made their bodies slick so that their hands glided effortlessly over one another. Eventually kissing and groping one another was not enough for either of them and Galiren had Squall get on all fours in the shallow fountain pool before he came up behind him with his erect maleness already throbbing.

As Galiren got ready the sizzling of water could be heard and the gargoyle looked up from where he was getting ready to impale the other man to see Slypher standing there in front of the two of them. At first he thought that perhaps he had done something wrong with turning the troll into another one of his forms and bringing in his other self to enjoy it, but as he tried to figure out what to say the phoenix merely knelt down himself and grabbed the deer man by his antlers. This caused Galiren to laugh and as he went back to pushing his cock in between the surprisingly supple stone of the deer's backside Slypher did the same to the cheeks of the cervine's mouth. Even though both of them were rather largely endowed Squall took them both easily, his grunts and groans at being penetrated so deeply thoroughly muffled by the phoenix cock that he quickly managed to get into his throat.

From what Galiren had seen in his brief visions the Hind was no stranger to this position and the deer was all the more eager to please as his insides squeezed around the shaft inside of him. Despite being made of stone there was a fleshier yield to them, though the texture was still the same which allowed the gargoyle to smoothly slide in and out from tip to root. At the same time as he was bulging out the toned stomach of the deer Slypher was doing the same to his throat, Galiren huffing loudly at the sight of his master's cock inside another as he reached down into the water to stimulate the one between them. As he leaned forward his groin pushed in hard as he got out a few strokes, and as both he and Squall both let out loud moans that were suddenly and abruptly stopped.

“I think that's a perfect place to leave you two for now," Slypher said with a chuckle as he looked at the two frozen bodies of the heavily muscled men, and though the gargoyle couldn't show it he could sense the surprise in him as the phoenix thrust himself into the stuck open maw of the deer a few more times before pulling out. “What, your body is mine to do with what I please and I think that this will be the perfect place for you two for a while. With your cock inside of dear Larry, or should I say deer Larry, and his underneath the waves you two can remain like that for the rest of the day while people admire you while unaware of your true nature."

As though to punctuate his point Galiren saw that the sun had started to rise up, the first rays of dawn glinting off his polished stone body as the phoenix moved around while sliding a hand down their statuesque form. “Just wait until you get those first sets of eyes on your form," Slypher continued on as he got behind the gargoyle, shifting his body up to sit on the deer so that he could also feed his still half-hard cock into the maw of the other petrified creature while he continued to tease. “You'll have the ability to sense what they think of you; some will see you as the stalwart and brave protector of this place with this demon deer being your prey that you pounced upon to prevent its trespassing, others will merely admire you for your beauty while not knowing the throes of pleasure that their looks give you that is almost as good as that tailhole your maleness is stuck inside, and then there will be others that look upon you with pure lust. Once night comes you will be released and you can go as you please while Larry here reverts back to normal, though it may take a bit longer depending on how much he's enjoying himself."

Slypher could sense the gargoyle psychically thrashing about from the pleasure that the phoenix was giving him both mentally and physically as he slid all the way down to his base and had the gargoyle nuzzle against his groin before finally pulling himself out. As he did he could hear Galiren groan in his mind and knew that he would be just fine where he was, and besides if he needed him he knew how to reach him as he opened his palm and had the key appear there. His own personal pet gargoyle, it wasn't too often that he had a chance to have someone so completely and it made him wonder if perhaps he shouldn't make a few duplicates. The phoenix knew of more than a few others that wouldn't mind having the services of such a powerful creature at their beck and call, and Galiren was more than willing to serve them just as much as they would him.

But that would come later, Slypher thought to himself as he once more caused the key to vanish, for now he just wanted Galiren to enjoy himself in the situation that he got himself in while he reported back to his job. As far as the SHIFT Institute was concerned he was just there in order to make sure that Dieter couldn't potentially become corrupted with more divine energy to the point of creating a bunch of potential gods, and as far as they were concerned that was the only thing that he had done. Plus there was nothing in his contract that said he couldn't take himself a little souvenir as he grinned while twirling the collar around his finger before he disappeared completely.

As the sun rose higher in the air eventually the museum was opened for business, and as people began to filter in Galiren began to realize exactly what his master was talking about when it came to people looking at him. The number of stares that he got would have caused him to shiver in delight and the fact that they didn't know he wasn't really a statue made it all the better. It was the perfect disguise, and he would use it in order to get where he needed to go and hide whenever he wanted. That combined with the power of shapeshifting and possession made his ability to stealthily go wherever he or Master Slypher wanted was intoxicating.

For the moment, however, the frozen gargoyle was more than content to play his role as statue… until nightfall at least.
