The woman he pointed to was quite a beauty. She'd once been a somewhat heavy, little woman with pale skin and reddish hair. Now, she looked like a darker, larger breasted version of Beyonce, with a tumble of dark, red-tinted hair that curled in ringlets to the small of her back. Her large, expressive eyes shone with determination and contempt.
She rose, her body sheathed in black leather pants and halter-top, her navel piercing on display. "I have a question. If you have this power...why squander it on this start of childish display. Just to prove your power? You could cure cancer...heal the sick..."
"Is that the sort of thing that appeals to you?" he asked, looking his creation up and down.
"Well, yes. I am a doctor. Chief of surgery at..."
Stud Muffin smiled, as Suki ran her fingers over her machine, then he said "Oh, no. I'm sorry, my dear...but you aren't. You may be, some day. But we can't have a woman of barely legal age being a doctor. And a surgeon no less. You...are now a nurse. A hot, sultry young thing who get's..."
He got that far, the woman's features wilting as her career was suddenly stripped from her. Then the older gentleman at her side -- in his late 50's and no doubt her husband -- stood and shouted "STOP IT! You...HORRIBLE MAN! Cassandra is a better person than you could EVER be! Change her back the way she was, you monster!"
This was an interesting wrinkle. Stud Muffin smiled at the gallant husband, while Cassandra begged him "Please, Donald...don't say anything else! He's too powerful! I'll...we'll get along. I love you so much, I don't want you to be hurt. Just...apologize...and we'll sit down. I..."
B.J. shook her head, making tsk-tsk noises, and Suki giggled from behind her cupped hand. Stud Muffin strode towards the man, his smile wide and amused. Suki started typing at the device in her hand...
"Oh, no. I'm sorry, Donald...but that won't do. Not at all. I respect you for your courage...but that's not going to keep me from punnishing you."
Cassandra, striken by concern, dropped to her knees and begged "Please don't hurt him! He's a good and decent man...and he's just shocked by all of this. Surely you can understand how this hurts him. If you're truly as powerful as all this, then you must be a god! But...even a god can have compassion and mercy. Please forgive my husband. I love him...and he loves me..."
Stud Muffin looked down at her. Cassandra hoped that her flattery worked.
Suki smiled...and started tapping keys again, while Stud Muffine grinned down at her.
"I am indeed a god, my dear. And it is my decision..."
