Infernal Illusion: Embracing the Imp Within
2 Points
You are sitting comfortably in your bedroom, sipping on your favorite drink as you flip through the pages of your latest fantasy novel. The story is engrossing, filled with mythical creatures and daring adventures. As you turn to the next chapter, an odd sensation tingles in your fingertips. You raise your hand to your face, expecting to find your familiar skin, but you’re startled to see it turning a deep crimson red.
"W-What is happening?" you exclaim, but your voice doesn't sound quite right. It’s higher, nasally, and laced with a hint of an accent you can't place.
Your fingers are changing, reducing from five to four, the nails growing into small, sharp claws. Panic starts to rise in your chest. You glance in the mirror across the room and gasp. Your face is morphing, your nose disappearing completely, replaced by a reptilian-like snout. White freckles are erupted on your red skin, and you can feel your hair rearranging itself into a sleek, white peak.
"No! This can't be real!" you shout as your eyes turn yellow with slitted pupils.
Your body shrinks rapidly; the once comfortable chair now feels oversized. Lanky legs ending in cloven-hoofed feet replace your human legs as a long, thin devilish tail sprouts from your lower back. Your clothes transform as well: a navy-black coat with red buttons and white cuffs materializes on you, accompanied by a white shirt with a black turtleneck, a large red bow tie, black toe-less pants, and fingerless gloves.
"M-Moxxie," you stutter, recognizing the character you’ve become. "Why am I… Moxxie?"
Memories start flooding in, overtaking your own thoughts. You try to hold onto your real life—your name, your friends, your family—but it’s like trying to grasp water with your bare hands.
"I can't forget who I am," you think desperately, but the wave is overpowering.
"Millie, my love," you hear yourself say, but it’s not just a random utterance; it’s a genuine sentiment born from deep within you. Images of a kind and fierce imp named Millie fill your mind, and your heart swells with love for her.
Your resistance starts to weaken. Blitzo, the antsy, erratic boss you now remember working for, is constantly bullying you. The knowledge of a variety of weapons you’ve handled floods back, along with the insecurities you’ve harbored about not being physically strong like others.
"No, I'm not this person," you think one last time, but it’s already too late. The essence of Moxxie has overtaken you, erasing the knowledge that you were ever anyone else.
Suddenly, you feel a sensation of falling. You scream, "Aaaah!" as terror grips you, the bedroom around you morphing into a kaleidoscope of colors.
You awaken with a gasp, finding yourself in a dark room. The curtains are slightly ajar, allowing a dim light to filter in. You recognize it instantly—your home in Imp City.
"Moxxie, darlin’, you alright?" Millie's concerned face comes into view as she shakes you gently.
"I-I had a wild dream," you say, rubbing your temples. The details of the dream elude you, slipping through your fingers like grains of sand.
"You were tossing and turnin'," Millie says, placing a comforting hand on your cheek. "Was it somethin' bad?"
"I don't remember exactly. Something about being… human," you muse, the word feeling foreign and strange.
"Well, you're not human," Millie laughs softly, "You're my handsome imp husband, and that's all that matters."
A smile breaks on your face as a comforting wave of relief washes over you. You pull Millie into a warm embrace. "Yeah, you're right. It was just a strange dream. Nothing more."
As you hold her, you realize how deeply you cherish this life. All the turmoil, the nonsense, and even the dysfunctional workplace seem insignificant compared to the love and purpose you feel with Millie.
You sigh contentedly, nuzzling closer to her. Though the remnants of the dream still whisper doubts, you shrug them off, fully embracing your true reality: You're Moxxie, and Hell is home.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of a human reader completely turning into Moxxie (from an adults cartoon/animated series Helluva Boss), complete with art style shift (the reader now being in a cartoon world of the Helluva Boss series, and the reader now becoming a cartoon character with the same art style as the other Helluva Boss characters, rather than being a real life person), gender change (if the reader is a female; this is optional and only if the reader is female), clothes change, age change, height regression (shrinking from an average 5.7 foot or 6 foot height to only 3.9 feet tall), reality change (the reader's real world becoming the world of Helluva Boss), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personalities and memories being completely replaced with Moxxie's personality and memories, despite the reader's best efforts of fighting his/her new personality and memories, making the reader completely forget he was a normal person, even forgetting that the transformation that just occurred seconds ago, and only remembered ever being a male imp and a husband to Millie, always being an imp named Moxxie). For Moxxie's appearance (after the reader turned into him), he is an imp with red skin and white freckles on his cheeks, and he is shorter than Blitzo since he is 3.9 feet tall. Like all imps, he has a short reptilian-looking snout filled with white sharp teeth and without a nose, as well as having four fingered hands (instead of five as in humans), and he lacks any visible ears. His white pointy hair leads up to his curvy black and white striped horns. He also has yellow sclera with black slit pupils. Moxxie has a long red thin devil-like imp tail with a quadrilateral barb at the end, as well as lanky digitigrade legs ending in what appears to be cloven red hoofed feet, reminiscent of artiodactyls. Moxxie's usual outfit consists of a navy-black coat with red buttons and white cuffs, black toe-less pants a white shirt that has a black turtleneck, a large red bow-tie, and fingerless gloves. Moxxie is the I.M.P's weapon specialist; and as such, has a vast knowledge of weapons and often brings a variety of them along during jobs. For Moxxie's personality, he is often the most vocal and realistic of the employees (his boss is Blitzo) regarding the company as a whole despite its dysfunctional environment and is bullied consequently. He is also shown to be insured about himself since he’s not physically strong since Striker, Lin and Joe was giving him a hard time since they believe physical strength is what makes a person strong. Moreover, he is an imp who is easily annoyed and rather clumsy, as he trips over their ritualistic book on the way through the portal to the living world. Despite being a murder-for-hire imp, it seems Moxxie is queasy with unnecessary killing beyond their targets. He also is uncomfortable with the idea of killing targets who have families, and attempts to give people second chances. Moxxie is also shown to have a comical side, as when he talks about killing an entire family, he claims it might be alright if it was just a bad dad or a mob family, saying "That's understandable" in an accent. For Moxxie's preferences (likes and dislikes); he likes cooking, culinary arts, musical theater, classical music, opera, his mother's kindness, being put in charge of missions, and Blitzo's approval as his boss. However, Moxxie dislikes Blitzo prying into his personal life, theme parks, theme park mascots, killing the innocent, pop music, Stolas' wrath, his father's (Crimson) abuse, Loona calling him fat, being the butt of the joke, and Millie stealing his spotlight. The story is that the reader is minding his/her own business, but then, against his/her will, he/she started to transform, with his/her body (including gender if the reader was female), voice, clothes being completely transformed into those of Moxxie's. Then, his memories and personality are completely rewritten and replaced by those of Moxxie and Millie, making him realize that he has turned back to his true/normal self (Moxxie), no longer a human he mistaken/thought himself to be. Suddenly, the reader, now fully Moxxie, then has a falling sensation, making him scream in terror. But then, the reader (Moxxie) wakes up in a bedroom located in Moxxie's and Millie's home/apartment (located in Imp City at the Pride Ring of Hell), awoken by his wife Millie. During his awakening by Millie, he tells his wife that he had a wild dream (unable to truly recall on what that dream really was), confirming that everything that had happened moments ago was all just a dream, so Moxxie is happy to know that his supposed human life and self was only a dream, and knows that his life as Moxxie (as well as always living in Hell) is his true reality. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story (including quotes from the reader) so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
