Anne Shepard did not feel well. The rather tall redhead had had a massive headache ever since she had been hit by the Prothean beacon, somehow including while she was unconscious. The dream was strange and did not make any sense, something snakelike was in it, but that was about it. But the strangest thing was that she felt different. Like she had changed drastically, on a fundamental level. But above that feeling, she was starving. So, after she was checked out of the medbay, she decided that she needed the rest, and went to go get some food before retiring to her quarters. After getting some fruit, she noticed several people she passed giving her odd stares. Attributing it to her looking sick, she continues on.
Coming to her room, she enters, and immediately collapses into her chair. But something is off. The chair is rather uncomfortable, almost like it is... too small. Now that she thinks of it, everything in the room looks smaller than it used to, much smaller. Deciding that she would have to check for herself, she goes into the bathroom and measures her own height, finding that she is 6"2, which is over four inches taller than she was previously. Now very freaked out, she paces over to her table and grabs an apple, before walking along the room, thinking about what this could mean.
In her concentration, she attempts to take a bite of the apple, not realizing that she was swallowing it whole until it was halfway down her throat. Very surprised at this, she gulps it down completely and starts gasping "What the hell was that?" she asks to herself, once the coughing fit was over. Seeing the small lump in her belly, she decides that she should try to eat another apple. Picking it up, appraising it, she finds that it is slightly bigger than the first. With a strange lack of hesitation, she puts it in her mouth, surprise becoming evident when her lips stretch over the apple, and she swallows it down without any trouble. She was confused, it felt so good, so right. What would she do with this?
