H: On a sunny saturday as usual, Cody (a brown wolf in purple swimming trunks and black cape and wearing a sun pendant necklace) is in the beach looking forward to yet another of his exciting underwater dives, eager to explore what's below the blue waves. However, he suddenly spots Snii-Tii (a blue cobra with a bra) looking at her tail confidently. He then approaches her excited to see her. "Hi Snii-Tii! How are you?" ^^

L: Sni-tii looks over at Cody, smiling. "I'm doing good! There's actually something I was just about to experiment with that I could show you... You see how the end of my tail is a different color from the rest of it?" She holds up her tail so Cody can see it.

H: Cody now notices that the tip of Sni-Tii's scaly tail is unusually colored cyan than normal. "Wow, indeed it looks different now! What happened?" Cody concerned.

L: "Well, a while back I explored an underwater temple and found a cool crystal in it, and when I touched it it gave me a new power! Watch!" Sni-tii taps herself with her tail, and turns into a rubber version of herself! "Pretty cool, huh?"

H: "Wow, very awesome and squeaky! But does it only turn you into rubber?"

L: "As far as I know, it can do any material." Sni-tii changes herself to stone, then clay, then back to normal. "It works on others too, I could do it on you if you want."

H: "Ooo, me me me! I'd like to be made out of squeaky stretchy elastic rubber please!" He immediately ethusiastically said without a second thought, wagging his fluffy tail very rapid.

L: "Haha, alright!" Sni-tii taps Cody, and sure enough, he turns to rubber, and even his clothes and necklace do too! "Oh hey, I didn't know it worked on things someone's wearing!"

H: Cody feels different now. His body is now made of very squishy and elastic rubber with a slippery and sleek texture to it. His fur colors and paw pads are now printed onto his new rubbery skin like a pooltoy and feels much more flexible than ever before. Cody happily squeaks as he starts tugging his now-stretchable rubbery face to impossible lengths like a deflated balloon or slingshot before letting go as it snaps back into place, showcasing its extreme elasticity. He lays on the sand and bends his body freely like dough till his feet paws are touching his head, showcasing its extreme flexibility. He also stretches his swimming trunks for a bit before letting go with another loud SNAP.

He clearly is having a lot of fun with his new malleable rubber body that red cartoon hearts appear on his cheeks as if blushing. "This is awesome, I love it!"

L: "I can tell you're having a great time, yeah! I'll keep this up as long as I can, but keeping someone in a different form tires me out over time. Still, I think we'll have a couple hours or so before it's an issue for me."

H: "Oh, I see. Sounds like a power limit."

L: "Yeah, the harder the material I make someone into, the more exhausting it is to keep them that way. I think there's a minimum as well, since I was hanging out as air once and eventually still got tired."

H: "Hm, well, I guess we can go for a dive together in the meantime. I can't wait to try this rubber body underwater, hehe." He smooshes his rubbery cheeks squeakily.

L: "Oh, before I forget, you still have to breathe! Being a different material doesn't change that. So, make sure you use your necklace before you actually dive."

H: "Sure... But what if?" Cody seems to have an interesting idea in mind however.

L: "...Looking to experiment with this? I still don't know much about my power, so whatever you've got in mind, we can give it a shot."

H: "How about I puff my cheeks out while underwater to keep the air in since they're now elastic and all. I saw Cirrus and a dinosaur I rescued doing it." He tugs his stretchy cheeks a little.

L: "I think that'd probably work! And it does seem like you can sort of generate air while underwater in your aquatic form, so maybe you could use your cheeks like ballast tanks?"

H: "Ballast tanks? What are those?"

L: "They're what submarines use to adjust buoyancy, by filling them with either air or water. Fish actually have something similar, they just don't use air for it."

H: "Oh, I see, interesting. Well, let's dive right in, shall we?" Cody squeakily steps into the water.

L: "Yep, let's get started." Sni-tii slithers into the water after Cody, currently able to "stand" tall enough to keep her head above the surface.

H: Cody looks at Snii-tii for a second. "Did you sprouted yourself some limbs?"

L: "Haha, no, I'm just able to hold my head up a little higher than usual if I balance myself right. Being in water makes it easier."

H: "Oh, I see. Anyway, on the count of three we dive down. 1... 2... 3!" Cody takes a deep breath and crouches down into the water with round but normally not exagerrated cheeks, still in his rubbery land form as he crawls below.

L: Sni-tii takes and holds a deep breath of her own as she lowers her head underwater. Puffing her cheeks some herself, she follows Cody along the bottom.

H: Cody's glossy rubbery skin reflects the waving ripples above the surface while he attempts to swim underwater without his aquatic form. His cheeks starting to swell and his mouth puffing in as bubbles slowly trickle through his snout.

L: Changing herself into wood so she can float better, Sni-tii swims alongside Cody, admiring his shiny body and blowing some bubbles.

H: Cody stops swimming as he kneels down on the sandy floor. He begins inspecting his balloon-size rubber cheeks as he rubs and smooshes them around while more air bubbles escape through his muzzle in the process. He seems to really enjoy it.

L: Smiling at Cody, Sni-tii playfully pokes and rubs at his cheeks as well. She's as smooth as she normally is, so it's not uncomfortable, and she makes sure to be gentle so she doesn't push out Cody's air.

H: Cody wags his squishy tail as his cheeks begin to swell more.

L: Sni-tii decides she wants to join in, and turns herself to rubber as well. Immediately she starts puffing her cheeks bigger, quickly getting them to the size Cody's are at and matching how fast they're growing.

H: Cody starts playing with Snii-Ti's cheeks as his now become the size of a beachball. He feels no pain though.

L: Sni-tii playfully blows out some bubbles as if Cody is using more force than he actually is. It's clear it's intentional on her end though, as she smiles between her increasingly large cheeks.

H: Cody then signals Snii-Tii as the two continue swimming underwater, his cheeks now the size of his head while more air bubbles trickle through his muzzle.

L: She's still able to swim as rubber, just not quite as well as when she was wood. Still not feeling even the slightest urge to breathe, she blows a trail of bubbles for a couple seconds.

H: Eventually they come across a cliff above a deeper floor. He looks down the cliff while holding onto his big round cheeks that were obscuring his face.

L: Sni-tii looks down from the cliff as well, before turning to Cody. "Shblould we go doblwn there?" Somehow, her cheeks remain puffed as she speaks.

H: Cody can't speak right now so he nods. He then hops off the cliff and starts sinking as his rubbery swimming trunks starts to puff up.

L: Sni-tii jumps off as well, sinking alongside Cody. "Let mble know if you wablnt me to get ubls down there fablster."

H: Cody gives a thumbs up as he sinks further while his rubbery swimming trunks inflate a little because of the elasticity.

L: With a nod, Sni-tii pulls the air from her cheeks back in and wraps her tail around one of Cody's legs before turning to stone. With the extra weight, the two begin to sink down much faster than before.

H: "blmbl?!" Cody is now sinking a lot more as his stretchy rubber swimming trunks begin to puff and inflate a lot more by the current as his round squishy cheeks getting bigger and bigger with heart-shaped bubbles trickling more frequent through his snout.

L: Sni-tii looks down at the approaching sea floor, then back up at Cody. "You're pretty goblod at hblolding your breath, hbluh?"

H: Cody nods, smooshing his blushing round cheeks once more playfully.

L: Sni-tii smiles at that, then looks down again to be ready for the landing that'll come fairly soon.

H: The two now land on the deeper level, Cody's rubbery paw feet touching the sandy ground as his rubbery swimming trunks puff out back to normal. More air bubbles emerge from his muzzle.

L: With both of them there, Sni-tii lets go of Cody and changes herself to rubber again, once more matching the size of her cheeks to Cody's.

H: Kneeling down, Cody then stretches his own elastic rubber muzzle and ties it shut into a balloon knot for fun as his cheeks gradually get bigger.

L: Sni-tii laughs out a few bubbles at that, still unconcerned about her own need for air. "I can tublrn us into actual balloons to geblt back up once webl're done down hblere."

H: Cody then decides to turn aquatic as he clutches his squeaky sun pendant necklace into a crescent moon, gaining himself his fins, gills, webbing and flippers for feet, albeit as rubber too.

L: Sni-tii smiles as she looks over how Cody's aquatic form looks while made of rubber. "Kind of sublrprising that your neblcklace still works like thblis."

H: Cody nods, still unable to speak due to the balloon knot on his own muzzle.

L: "Make sure yoblu untie that before I chblange you to something elblse. For now though, iblt does look pretty fublnny." Sni-tii reaches over and gently flicks the knot a little.

H: Cody wags his tail before untying his muzzle and giant bubbles finally erupted from his muzzle as his cheeks shrink. "Well, that was fun!"

L: "Yeah, thblat was neat to see! I'm noblt sure even Cirrus cabln get hblis cheeks that big!"

H: "Hehe, maybe I just passed a new record." Cody giggled underwater while still wagging his rubbery fish tail.

L: "I'm sure hble'll take that record bablck once hble plays around wiblth being rubber too... But anblyway, let's see if anyblthing cool is down hblere."

H: "Sure!" Cody then goes back to being 'cheeky' as he starts kicking his flippers together like a mermaid.

L: Sni-tii swims alongside him, keeping her own cheeks puffed up big as well, still having no sign of needing to breathe yet.

H: "Hey Snii-Tii, have you ever tried adding yourself some limbs with your new power?"

L: "Yeah, bublt it doesn't work. It cabln only do really minor adblditions, new limbs is toblo much for it."

H: "Oh, I see." Cody then spots something in the far distance as he pushes away his big round rubber cheeks obscuring his view. "Oh look, a cave!"

L: "Nice, that'll be fubln to check out!" Sni-tii turns to swim toward the cave. By now, she's finally starting to feel a tiny urge to breathe, but it's still fine for now, and she knows she can get air from Cody.

H: The two approach the cave and discover that the entrance is blocked off, save for a hole between the rocks. "Looks like we need to squeeze through here somehow, hopefully these rubber bodies of ours are squishy enough to pass through."

L: "I've neblver tried that before... Yoblu should go first, thblen you can pull me thblrough after. If it doeblsn't work, I can make just ubls something that's not solid."

H: "Alright, I'll see what I can do." Cody then enters the hole arms first, trying to squish his mallable rubbery body through between the rocks. He manages to push half of his aquatic finned body through the hole and completely smoosh his very bouncy big cheeks instantly in the process, blubbling out a very giant air bubble from his erupted muzzle as a result.

L: "Hblang on, I'll hblelp." Sni-tii pushes against Cody, trying to get him the rest of the way through. She deflates her cheeks for the moment as her body squishes against Cody from the force she's using.

H: With a loud SQUEAK, Cody is now out of the hole he's squished in. He expects some hidden treasure but instead finds an ancient sword shoved onto a barnacle-riddled rock, appearing as if waiting for someone to take it out. "Huh, this is not what I expected. You alright there, Snii-Tii?"

L: "Yep, I'm fiblne! What's in thblere?" Sni-tii starts trying to squeeze through the opening as well, able to get her head through with some effort.

H: "There's an old sword shoved into that stone over here, seems like it was waiting for someone to pull it out."

L: There's another loud squeak as Sni-tii manages to get all the way through, and she looks over at the sword. "This is a weblird place for something liblke that... Well, no reblason not to try taking iblt, right?"

H: "I guess it is possible to recover it. I will try." Cody swims over towards the sword, planting his rubbery flippered feet against the ground as he tries to pull the sword out from the stone with his squishy webbed paws but it's tougher than it looks as he starts bending and stretching his arms. Lots of bubbles flow out of his muzzle as he struggles.

L: "You being rubbler probably isn't hblelping with this..." Sni-tii holds onto Cody and helps him pull, stretching him out further.

H: "Hm, what if I fill my cheeks with enough air that I start floating and take the sword out in the process?"

L: "Oh, that miblght work! That'll need a LOT oblf air, but I think yoblur cheeks can hblandle it while yoblu're rubber."

H: "Alright, let's see if it works." Cody tugs his own elastic muzzle and ties it into another balloon knot so the air won't escape. He then holds his air breath as his squishy cheeks start expanding into big rubber balls once again and begins floating while tightening his sleek webbed paw grip on the sword's handle.

L: Sni-tii puffs her cheeks again as well, though it's not making more air, and pulls upward on Cody as hard as she can, bubbling from the effort.

H: Cody is only able to move the sword but other than that it isn't working as the room is now completely filled with his planet-sized elastic cheeks that squish both himself and Sni-Tii in the process comedically, his stretchy arms are now too long also.

L: Sni-tii isn't able to help pull like this, but at this point, she isn't sure it'd even do anything. "I don't thblink this is going to woblrk..."

H: Giving up, Cody unties his muzzle as he explodes out a bubble blast that briefly pinned the rubber duo against the wall before eventually popping away by the sword as his stretched-out arms snap back into place. Luckily they didn't feel any pain or injury since they're still squishy rubber for now. "You're right, I think we should try something else instead."

L: "What could wble even do...? I can onbly change the materials oblf living things, I cabln't use my power on thblat..."

H: "Hm, I have an idea. What if you change back into fur and flesh but with super big and strong muscles of enough strength to get the sword out? How does that sound?" Cody said optimistically.

L: "...I mean, mayble if I change ubls to literally BE muscle, beblcause that's hblow I'd hblave to do that, but thblat might be kind of grbloss... Maybe we coubld change to something hblard and dig at the stblone? Or stay rubber anbld get some strong anblimal to pull us while wble hblold the sword?"

H: "Hmm, first option sounds worth a try. What hard forms do you have in mind?"

L: "Hblarder than stone, for sublre, but not hblard enough I get tirbled too quick... Iron would work, riblght?"

H: "Sure, let's go with that!"

L: With a tap on Cody and then herself, the two turn to iron! Sni-tii looks herself over, then tries jabbing the rock with her tail, successfully chipping away a bit of it. "Alright, this'll worblk! Let's try to work qublick..."

H: "Roger!" And so the now-ironized duo work together to dig the stone away from the sword, carefully as possible to not accidentally break it. Since they're now iron, they cannot swim temporarily.

L: It's taking some time, but gradually, there's less and less stone holding the sword in place. After about 10 minutes, the sword finally seems to be getting loose!

H: "It's working! Seems we can take it off now!"

L: "Okay, let's trbly it again!" Sni-tii turns herself and Cody back to rubber again. "Hblow about you do thble honors?" She gestures to the sword, wanting Cody to be the one to pull it out.

H: Cody nods, takes the sword and... *Zelda 64 Treasure Chest Opened SFX* Cody now has the sword as he bubbles in victory!

L: "Nice! We've fiblnally got it! Even if it's just ordinary, that's still really cool!"

H: "Yep! I wonder if we can donate this to a museum or something."

L: "We could, yeblah! Not like I cabln use that, and I gubless you're not too inblterested in hblaving a sword either."

H: "Well, I already have my own weapon at home. It's a crossbow with a trident I made by myself, hehe."

L: "Oh, that soublnds cool! You'll hblave to show me thblat sometime!"

H: "Sure thing! Anyway, I think that's enough swimming for today, let's head now to the surface." Cody then squeakily squishes through the hole where he came from.

L: "Yeah, I think so too." Sni-tii squeaks her way back outside as well.

H: That's when the two notice an aggresive shark that's rapidly charging towards them! "Blub!? Snii-Tii, watch out!"

L: "ABLH!" Sni-tii quickly turns herself and Cody to steel, that being the first thing that comes to her mind.

H: The shark then bites Snii-Tii... only to end up breaking its teeth.

L: Sni-tii sighs out a few bubbles in relief. "That could've beblen awful... Stupid shark..."

H: Defeated, the shark swims away in dental pain, it also has a kick mark from years ago. "Yeah, that was close. Anyway, I think we can ascend to the surface quick as rubber." Cody optimistically points to his cheeks.

L: "I've got an idblea for hblow we could go evblen faster..." She changes Cody and herself once more, this time into balloons, and they both begin rapidly ascending!

H: "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW WE'RE FLYING!!!!!" Cody is surprised.

L: "We'll be back ablt the surface in jublst a few seconds liblke this!" Sni-tii smiles as she watches the surface rapidly approach.

H: Cody notices he has paw-shapped bappers for hands like a pooltoy right before they splash back into the surface as they float there. Cody sports a cartoony bean-mouth grin on his printed face like how a pooltoy on Furaffinity would usually have. "That was fun!" He wags his air-filled fish tail.

L: Sni-tii lightly gasps as she surfaces, and ends up going several feet in the air from the momentum she had before floating back onto the surface. "Yeah, I had a great time!"

H: "I really love your cool new powers there, they're absolutely very helpful for future adventures!"

L: "I've really been enjoying it too, there's so many things to play around with! I'm not sure if I mentioned it before, but it can turn people into gases and liquids too!"

H: "Cool, maybe we can do it on land. Speaking of, I think we should head back now." He flops on his floating belly as he tries paddling back to shore with inflated puffy flippers for feet.

L: "Yeah, let's get going." Sni-tii tries to paddle as well, but it's really not working well, and she's barely getting anywhere.

H: "Maybe we should transform back to ourselves."

L: "I'd sink if I did myself, but I'll change you back." Sni-tii returns Cody to being himself, keeping herself as a balloon. "Can you carry me back?"

H: "Sure, I have an idea!" Cody then pulls out a random string from his bag and ties it around the tip of Snii-Tii's tail like a balloon as she carries her with the string in hand while swimming back to shore.

L: Sni-tii laughs, and changes herself to be filled with helium instead of air so she floats like a proper balloon. "Never thought of trying this before!" Her voice is higher-pitched because of the helium.

H: Cody giggles as they finally made it back to shore.

L: Changing back to normal, Sni-tii lands on the shore as she gives a relaxed sigh. "Think I'm getting a little too tired to much more with my power for now... But all this was a lot of fun!"

H: "Indeed, it was so cool being transformed into different materials!" Cody wags his tail as he shakes his soggy fur dry and turns back to a normal wolf.

L: "I could show you where I got this from sometime, if you're interested. I don't think there's anything else there though, and that crystal I mentioned went dark after it gave me this."

H: "Maybe another time. For now, I'll see if I can donate the sword to any museum I can find. Anyway, take care, Snii-tii!" He cheerfully waves bye as he walks back to town.

L: "See you!" She waves back with her tail, before slithering off on her own.
