“Let me prove it to you, Suzy.” So I set the remote to “shrink” mode and fired it at myself.
I could see the room - and Suzy - getting a lot bigger, and pretty quickly. Suzy was sitting there with her mouth open, apparently not really believing what she was seeing.
I let go of the firing button when, at about two feet tall, the last of my clothes fell off of me. I bowed toward Suzy, and said, “It gives me great pleasure at this time to say, ‘I told you so.’”
“That’s really incredible... and I see what you mean about it not shrinking clothes,” she chuckled. “How small can something, or someone, be shrunk?”
“I don’t know. But before we try it, maybe you’d better close your door all the way. Having your sister walk in wouldn’t be a good thing right now,” I said. “Right,” she laughed, “having a naked boy in my room wouldn’t sit well either with her or with mom.”
I said, “I’ll bet they’d be even more upset if you were getting naked yourself,” I pointed the remote at her, and held the firing button. “Matt!” she protested. But she shrank rapidly enough that she was a little shorter than I was - and just as naked - in a very few seconds.
By this time, though, geek that she was, Suzy had forgotten all about her clothes and wanted to explore the full range of the remote. “Obviously it works on living organic matter. I wonder... if someone was completely inside another person, and the outer person shrank, would the person inside them shrink too?” She suddenly got a horrified look on her face, like the one I probably get when I’m thinking,
Did I actually say that out loud?
I walked up to her and tried to be just friendly, although my erection at the sight of her naked body wasn’t helping things, and I put my hand on her shoulders. “Listen, Suzy, it’s perfectly OK to wonder about things like that. We might as well test out the remote and see what it will and won’t do, and since you’re the science gal, I’ll let you decide on the experiments.”
Suzy...
