Deciding to seize on Leonard's change before its final few points slipped by incendentally, Ronald approached the once portly boy. Leonard's always been something of a nerdy loner, he figured. Let's see what we can make of that.
As is eyes switching between the number above his head and Leonard's altered form. Both Leonard's body and face looked nearly completely changed, but his clothes and any other signs of his lifestyle seemed largely unchanged. Wonder how we could change that, he wondered.
The boy-- who in almost every regard looked like anything but at this point-- smiled as he saw Ronald walk over. "Hey, Ronald," he said, bowed lips parting in a smile.
"Hey yourself," replied Ronald, pleased at the warm, almost flirtatious greeting from the other boy. Leonard's shirt began to pull down, revealing the creamy flesh at the top of his chest. The skin was dappled with a sizable sprinkling of freckles, and when Ronald looked up he saw Leonard's face was dotted with freckles as well. Not just the sparse few like on Dalia's either, but a concentrated, heavy freckling across his nose, cheeks, even around his mouth.
Realizing that any further attention would only exaggerate the effect, Ronald decided to shift his focus elsewhere. Instead, he paid attention to Leonard's now quite fantastic body. Certainly this part had turned out great without his direction, giving the nerd a curvaceous, mature figure.
For a moment Ronald found himself worried that he might exaggerate Leonard's already stellar assets too far, but when the changes came they were something else entirely. Before his eyes, Leonard's body shifted subtly, the slightly awkward lank of his arm and legs smoothing out, his features shedding a bit of its youth.
He's growing older, Ronald realized. Very subtly, he realized. Only a year or two. But he could push that further if he tried, he knew. Glancing up, he saw the number above Leonard's head had only moved up a little--to 89-- since he arrived. It seems like his focused changes made minimal progress compared to the "natural" rate of change. Perfect for seeing how I could affect Leonard's changes, Ronald decided. Though should he try something specific, or push the slight bump in age further.
