"The Essence of Moxxie"
0 Points
Darkness fades into the world of Imp City, where the last fragments of a dream wither away into smoke. Opening your eyes, you blink, disorienting flashes of red skin and clawed, four-fingered hands coming into focus against an unfamiliar backdrop. Panic gnaws at the corners of your mind. You sit up, sheets tangling at your smaller, strangely lanky legs. "Where... where am I? Who am I?" you whisper to yourself, voice slightly different, higher-pitched.
The room around you is cluttered, but cozy—the bed large and distinctly impish in design. Your heart hammers in your chest as you struggle to piece together why your surroundings feel so alien. The dizziness intensifying, memories and strange, uninvited thoughts swirl into a storm inside your head.
"No, no... this is just a dream," you say, shaking your head, hoping to rattle your original self back into reality. Panic bubbles up. Holding your head in your hands, a series of fragmented images flash behind closed eyelids—blips of a past life you desperately grasp for, like shadows just out of reach.
"Remember... remember, for the love of...!" And yet, the words ring hollow. The fighting within your own mind feels like trying to swim against a tidal wave. Each memory of human life, moments filled with faces and places, dissolves under the implacable pressure of new recollections soldering themselves into place.
Your head pounds as your surroundings start making more sense—spec sheets on the bed, the smell of sulfur, the sense of reassurance that the room is safe, familiar. You hear yourself murmuring, "Millie...," and the name feels right, comforting.
The dizziness slowly morphs into clarity, an unsettling, inexorable acceptance. You see a navy-black coat hanging on a nearby chair—your coat, adorned with red buttons. The red bow-tie around your neck and the gloves on your atypically clawed hands feel absurdly correct now. "Moxxie," you whisper. Yes. That’s your name, isn't it?
Memories bloom like dark flowers in the midnight of your mind—your wedding to Millie, the thrill of handling an array of weapons, the frustrating bickering with Blitzo. The human life you once clinged to dissipates entirely, replaced wholly with the essence of Moxxie: the worries, the insecurities, the passion, the love.
With a deep, calming breath, you feel grounding comfort in this truth. You close your eyes one more time, the last whispers of resistance snuffed out. That mundane, confusing dream fades away, leaving behind nothing but the vibrant canvas of your truth.
As you sit up once more, fully Moxxie, your concerns shift back to the world you know—the place you belong. There are no remnants of unease, just the familiar hum of life in Imp City. You take a moment to collect yourself before standing, ready to face another day.
“Alright, Moxxie.” A voice calls from the doorway, drawing you out of your mental preparations. It’s Millie, her bright eyes twinkling with the same love and affection that makes your heart skip a beat. “You ready for another day causing some hell?”
With a smile you know is yours, you step forward, leaving behind any traces of an outsider in Hell. “Absolutely, Millie. Let’s go."
The certainty of your impish existence feels as solid as the ground beneath your digitigrade feet. You have a life to live, a job to do, and a devoted wife who you adore. Dreams fade, but your reality, your identity as Moxxie, is unwavering.

Prompt: Write a POV transformation story of the mortal 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), 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 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 (located in Imp City), making the reader (now Moxxie) confused and scared on where was he and who the reader himself was. 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, but to no avail, making him completely forget all about his human self and remembered everything about himself being Moxxie, happy to know that his human life and self was only a dream, and knowing that his life as Moxxie as well as always living in Hell being 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).
