Still, I could not help myself from asking with a pleading, shaky voice, “Could people not change, to you?” “I call bullshit,” he said flatly. “Changing just because your circumstances did? That is not transformation, that is adaptation. Survival. It is not change, and it sure as hell is not growth.”

I announced. "I don't have to be your boyfriend… I just want to come back." He looked at me nervously, seemingly afraid I'd reject him. I studied his youthful features and was reminded of a friend's advice. "Morality is a compass, not a cage."

I'll introduce you to the team before they all pass out trying not to think around you." As we walked through the bullpen, the atmosphere shifted. The second heads started turning in my direction, the mental panic somehow got worse. [Don't think about that stripper!] [Why is she prettier than I expected?] [I wonder if she can hear fantasies.] [Don't think dirty!]

Individuals have the potential to undergo significant changes and develop over the course of their lives. This process of transformation can involve various aspects of a person's life, including their beliefs, values, behaviors, and perspectives. Through personal experiences, exposure to new ideas, and self-reflection, individuals can evolve and grow in different ways. This growth can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself, increased empathy towards others, and the development of new skills and abilities.

“The Change effects everyone different. The most common reaction is painful, but there are stories of changed wolves that felt nothing at all. I suppose it depends on the person, but the kind of reaction felt by The Change can...do things to the host.” “What does that mean?” I bit my lip. “The feeling of your soul being ripped into two and your blood being dissolved and replaced is like no other. Someone who is goodhearted can appear to become soulless just as someone who has lived a life of horror can become a saint. Whoever the person is before The Change is almost never the same as the person they become after. This is yet another reason why it was illegalized.” He wore an expression of q
