>finally, the warping and nausea of the magic comes to an end
>as it passes, you open your eyes, nervously looking down
>"how do you feel?"
"um...   a-a bit sick, but it's passing..."
>they told you that the spells would hone in on your desires and match your new self to best fit them
>you're a stallion now, that tracks
>your fur is a somewhat dark red, sleek and shiny in the lights of the ponification clinic
>you can see your mane hanging down at the top of your vision, and unlike your fur, it's a bright white, but with a stripe of pink running down the center, like a halfway point between the dark red and the white
>hah....
>it reminds you of your first car
>or, you remind yourself of it
>polished dark red paint, pristine white interior, and pink stripes down the sides
>you lost your virginity in that car, and you were never quite the same after it got flattened by a mail truck on the highway
>you realize that you're just staring down at your hooves and smiling
>the ponies who brought you here are smiling too, as they step closer
>"you like it?"
>"feels better, doesn't it?"
>"you look so handsome......."
>you'd almost expected them to tease you after the change
>make fun of you for taking so long to choose, or that you ended up a weird color...
>you shiver a bit from the new sensations as you spread your wings open, looking back at them in awe
"it's...  you guys like it...?"
>"of course we do!"
>the mare who was the most pushy about you getting ponified takes your hoof and pulls you off of the table
>you're not sure how to stand yet, but you don't need to
>your new friends catch you, hugging you close and nuzzling you affectionately as they give you your very first group hug as a pony
>the smile won't come off your face, and tears have started to join it by now
"I-I love you guys...  thank you..."
>"we love you too!!"
>"I've already thought of some cool names you could pick!"
>"hehe, I wonder what your cutie mark will be..."
>".....we should give him a proper introduction to being a stallion...."
>"hey!  not yet!  come on, let's show him how to walk!"
>wait, not yet?
>you don't have time to wonder, since now you have to focus on learning to operate four legs at once
>outside the clinic, your friends hug you again, and a few passersby join in, squashing you in a warm, brightly colored group hug all over again as they cheer for you and chatter about how cute you came out....
>an older mare doesn't join in, but she smiles on her way past
>"I know we don't have a lot of stallions in town, but this is the third time I've seen a group of young things like you convert yourselves a Umie..."
>"hey!  We didn't tell him to be a stallion!"
>"oh please, Umies that change sides are all ponies already"
"I mean...  we've been friends since before..."
>the older mare waves a hoof at you, smiling
>"oh, hon, you're fine, you turned out lovely..."
>"just try not to dry the poor fella out, girls?"
>"no promises~!"
>it's going to be an interesting day, isn't it?
