Maladoo gives no indication of his approval or disapproval, so you continue,, unable to help yourself:
“I dunno’, ya’ know? I just… I am what I am, but that doesn’t mean I like it? It doesn’t mean I WANNA’ be like this. A freak, a monster, a—”
<span class="mu-g">“Rambion.”</span>
“H-huh?”
Maladoo groans, shutting his eyes and lowering his head. You watch in confusion as he backs up a few steps, turning around and then—to your fascination and horror, rising up onto his hind legs. His bones and ligaments shift and warp, crack and realign into a bipedal stance. He raises his paws to his head and, while you cannot see what they do from your angle, you hear more sickening pops and wet ripping sounds. When he turns around again, he is changed—still canine, but less a dog and more a dog-MAN, an emaciated and ghoulish thing. His jaw is realigned, his jowls dripping with gore.
“There,” he says, speaking clearly now, “that’s better.”
