You blink awake, feeling oddly cold and... mechanical. Your arms feel too smooth, your joints clicking with every movement. Panicking, you look down at yourself—your human body is gone, replaced by sleek, gleaming metal and a pair of dangerously sharp claws. You catch your reflection in a nearby screen.

Serial Designation J stares back at you, her glowing visor eyes scanning your panicked face.

As you try to process your transformation, your door swings open, and your roommate stands frozen, staring at you like you’re about to attack.

Roommate: "WHAT. THE. HECK?! You look like one of those creepy drones from that show we watched! Is that… J?! Why are you her?!"

You raise your metallic hand, trying to explain, but J’s sharp, slightly smug tone escapes your lips instead.

"Uh… okay, so this is super awkward, but maybe we can figure this out before I accidentally disassemble something? Deal?"

Your roommate looks at you in disbelief as you awkwardly try to hide the sharp claws glinting at your sides.
