Become a Furry

You are a gen(person, å) named ¢, living with your gen(partner, æ) ø. Things have been going really great between you two lately, and you can tell something big is on gen(their, æ) mind the way gen(they, æ)'s been fussing over you today. ø surprised you with a picnic this afternoon out by the lake, and you breathe in the fresh air as you help lay out the spread. "This is so nice, ø. I don't know what made you want to take me on a picnic today, but I'm glad you did." ø smirks back at you in gen(their, æ) usual playful manner, but you can tell there's a nervousness behind gen(their, æ) eyes as well. "Actually, ¢…" ø begins, swallowing a lump in gen(their, æ) throat. "There's something I wanted to talk to you about." "Go on," you urge, trying to keep your voice steady. "You know you can tell me anything." ø's voice trembles slightly, "You mean the world to me ¢, and I love you so much. But there's something I haven't been honest with you about." Your mind starts to race. What is it? An affair? Is gen(they, æ) leaving you? "I'm attracted to furries," ø blurts out, at last. You blink, completely thrown off. Furries? Anthropomorphic animals? Natural born furries are pretty rare, but there's been a rise in their population ever since the new injection Furvana was made available, making it possible for those born human to transition into a furry of any species they choose. Has ø been struggling with gen(their, æ) sexual identity this whole time? Has your relationship been a sham? At last, you find your voice again, "What are you saying, ø? Are you breaking up with me?" ø's eyes widen with shock, and gen(they, æ) quickly shakes gen(their, æ) head. "No, no, ¢! That's not it at all. I love you, and I want to be with you. It's just… I'm sexually attracted to furries. I can't deny this part of myself anymore." You furrow your brows in further confusion. "You're not asking for an open relationship, are you? Or a throuple? ø, I don't think I'm comfortable with that." ø runs a hand through gen(their, æ) hair, looking both relieved and more anxious. "No, ¢. Nothing like that." gen(They, æ) takes a sleek black box from the picnic basket and holds it out to you. "You've heard of Furvana? The at-home injection?" "You mean that at-home furry transition procedure?" ø nods, hopefully. "Yeah, that's the one. ¢, I think you would be a magnificent Bull furry." "Bull?" you repeat, mulling it over in your head. "ø, you know this is a permanent procedure, right? There is no reverse treatment. And what about you? Would you become a furry, too?" ø shakes gen(their, æ) head. "No, ¢. I'm sexually attracted to furries, but I'm happy being human." Your mind races on, "Those injections have to be specially formulated for the recipient. How did you… You've already given this a lot of thought, haven't you?" you ask as everything begins to sink in. "If I say no… You're going to leave me, aren't you?" ø's expression shifts, a pained look crossing gen(their, æ) face. "¢, I don't want to leave you. But this is a big part of who I am. I can't deny my desires forever," gen(they, æ) says, gen(their, æ) voice trembling. "I just need you to understand how important this is to me. For me to ever feel complete, I need to be with a furry. But I love you, ¢. I'm hoping that person can be you." You take the syringe from ø's hand, feeling its heft and peering at its crystal blue liquid through the sunlight. "Some Bull furry I'd make, huh?" you muse, more to yourself. ø's eyes are full of desperation, and gen(they, æ) searches your eyes as gen(they, æ) sees the jumble of thoughts and emotions warring in your mind. "Please, ¢," gen(they, æ) continues, gen(their, æ) voice breaking slightly. "I want you to be happy too, but this is something I can't compromise on. Can you do this for me? For us?" ¢: David å: Male ø: Ike æ: Male
