Surreal Reflections: Embracing Moxxie's Reality
0 Points
You wake up in a room you don't recognize, a sense of cold dread washing over you. The soft illumination of morning light pours through crimson curtains, casting eerie shadows on the walls. As you sit up, your body feels strange, and there's an uncomfortable unfamiliarity settling deep in your bones.
You slide off the bed, feet touching the cold floor, and look around the room. Gone are the familiar sights of your bedroom; instead, you find yourself in a bizarre, cartoonish space, like something out of an animated show. Actually, exactly like something out of Helluva Boss.
Panic seizes you. "What... what is this place?" You catch sight of your reflection in a mirror across the room.
Your eyes go wide, your - no, Moxxie’s - yellow eyes staring back at you. Your slim, red-skinned body, the short reptilian snout, the curvy horns, the tail... It can't be real, yet it all feels so horrifyingly tangible. You try to scream, but the voice that escapes doesn't belong to you; it's Moxxie's voice, high-pitched and tinged with panic.
“What’s happening to me?” you mutter, but even as you question, you hear, “What’s happening to me, Moxxie?” slipping out instead. You shake your head, trying to clear the fog, but your memories start changing. Human memories dissolve, replaced by a lifetime of experiences that aren't your own.
“No, this isn’t right! My name... my name is...” You clutch your head, fighting against the memories invading your mind. “I’m not Moxxie! I can’t be!” But each second that passes weakens your resolve. You can’t remember your human name. It's like it's slipped through your fingers. All you can grasp is 'Moxxie'.
You grip the edges of the mirror, staring into Moxxie's face, your face. "No, I have to remember!" But all you see is Moxxie staring back, confusion and fear mirrored in his yellow eyes.
Your brain feels like it's on fire, images flashing too fast: your - no, Moxxie’s - first kill, Blitzo's disapproving frown, Millie’s love. You remember running, panting, just to keep up with Millie during a mission, only to trip over your own tail. Her laugh echoes in your mind, affectionate and bright.
Blinking, you stumble backward, renewed panic surging inside. “No, what’s happening to me?” You repeat desperately, trying to cling to something, anything of your old self.
"Sweetie, are you okay?" Millie’s voice calls from the entrance to the room. Her presence wraps around you like a lifeline, and yet, it only cements this terrible reality. You turn to her, and she’s everything you remember - only, the memories aren’t your own, but they feel like they are. You feel safe around her, loved beyond measure.
You open your mouth to speak, to tell her something’s wrong, but as soon as you say, “Millie, I...” the rest won't come. Your former life is fading like an old dream.
She takes a step closer, concern etched on her face. “Moxxie, are you sure you’re alright? You look kinda pale.”
You take a deep breath. The inner turmoil fades, giving way to a sense of belonging, warmth. "I... I had the strangest dream, Millie. I dreamt I was someone else." Your voice is calmer now, accepting.
She chuckles, wrapping her arms around you. “Well, you’re definitely you, Mox. My adorable, clumsy Mox.”
You hug her back, the warmth of her embrace grounding you, yet it’s not the embrace you remember, but something new, yet deeply familiar. As you pull back, the confusion is replaced by a flicker of happiness.
“Yeah, you’re right.” you whisper. “It was just a weird dream.”
And as you stand there, in the apartment you've always known, with the woman you’ve always loved, you feel something settle. Your memories of a human life are gone, replaced entirely by a different life - your real life - as Moxxie.
This reality, with its cartoonish environment, its insane, dystopian cityscape, and its fiery rings of Hell, is your home. You remember everything now, the comfort of Millie's presence, the antics at I.M.P, and suddenly you don’t want to wake up - because you've never known anything else.
With newfound clarity, you smile at Millie. "So, what’s on our agenda today, darling?"
And she grins back, “Oh, usual mayhem. But we're doing it together, Mox.”
And with the comfort of that truth, Moxxie - you - take Millie’s hand, ready to face the chaos of Hell as only you both know how.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of the human reader instantly turning into Moxxie (a character, voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz, from the 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, her breasts vanish as her throat gains an Adam's apple to give her a more masculine voice identical to Moxxie (as heard from the Helluva Boss series) and her female privates (vagina, ovaries, and uterus) from her crotch/nether region invert itself and pushes out into male private parts (a penis and testicles); however, this is optional and only if the reader is female), clothes change (the reader's clothes becoming Moxxie's outfit), 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 (he also no longer remember having ever been human, since Moxxie was never a human and had always been an imp even from birth), 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 a slim-bodied imp with red skin and white freckles on his cheeks, and he is shorter than Blitzo (who is 5.3 feet tall unlike most imps, who are normally smaller like Moxxie) since he (Moxxie) 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 reader's transformation and the reality's change/shift all takes place before the story. The story starts when the reader, now Moxxie, wakes up in a bedroom in Moxxie's and Millie's home (in an apartment located somewhere in Imp City, in the Pride Ring of Hell), making the reader (now Moxxie) confused and scared on where was he and who the reader himself was. He saw himself no longer a human, but now an imp, named "Moxxie", who works for I.M.P. as a weapons specialist (seeing himself with Moxxie's anatomy (small 3.9 foot height, white freckles on his cheeks, white pointy hair, a pair of curvy black-and-white striped horns, short reptilian snout, glowing yellow iris-less eyes with black slit pupils, a slim body, sharp four-fingered hands, a long devil-like imp tail, digitigrade legs with red cloven hoofed feet, etc), Moxxie's outfit, Moxxie's color, etc), also feeling a long devilish tail (which swishes and curls due to the reader's new muscle memory) where his human tailbone used to be; he even hears himself sounding exactly like Moxxie, which the reader now really is Moxxie. He also starts remembering himself as Moxxie and starts calling himself "Moxxie" (ever since he woke up) against his will, despite him once knowing that is not his name, but instead of calling himself with his former human name (and despite saying that he is not Moxxie), he continues calling himself "Moxxie" (the reader say he is not Moxxie and tries to say who he was before but he then calls himself "Moxxie" again and continues to do so), calling himself "Moxxie" against his will (which the name "Moxxie" had fully replaced his human name) and despite his attempts on remembering and referring himself to his former human name, he could not remember his human life, appearance, or name. During his confusion, his memories and personality all begins to warp and completely change, making him dizzy as he hold his head with his arms, hoping that everything that is happening was all just a dream (hoping that he'll wake up back in real life back to normal as a human), and telling him to remember his human life (including his name), but to no avail (despite him wishing that this is just a dream and his hopes of remembering his human name, human voice, and human life) and he keeps calling himself "Moxxie" (he's confused on why he keeps remembering and calling himself "Moxxie" instead of his human name) despite his efforts on stopping calling himself that and despite his attempts on remembering and referring himself to his former human name (despite saying that he's not "Moxxie", he still keeps calling himself "Moxxie" instead of his human name, due to having completely forgotten his human name and the name "Moxxie" had fully replaced his human name (hence why he's calling himself "Moxxie" as if that's who he really is), with the reader not knowing on why he cannot remember his human name or life, and he even can't remember what he used to look or sound like as a human), as his human memories fail and vanish (despite his best efforts and making him embrace his new, or rather true self as Moxxie), making him completely forget all about his human self and remembered everything about himself being Moxxie, he is happy to know that his human life and self was not real and was only a dream, and knowing that his life as Moxxie is his true reality as well as knowing that he had always been a hellborn demon (more specifically, an imp), he knows that he always had a slim body, an imp tail, a pair of horns, and an impish face; he knew that he has always lived in Hell, having always loved his also-imp wife Millie (and Millie also had always loved Moxxie, showing true affection towards each other) since he (Moxxie) is a husband to Millie, and he has always lived with Millie in their apartment. 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).
