Commissioner's Commentary
“TCG…? What does that mean, ‘The Climate Group’?”
Recently, a lot of my friends have been telling me I should play this “TCG” thing; stands for “Trading Card Game” I think? Apparently, games like these are all the rage, and people have been going wild over them as of late.
Personally, I don’t get the hype. It’s just moving cards around, how exciting can that even be? I’ll stick with a good old-fashioned FPS, thank you very much.
I’m sure this will all blow over soon enough.

Ding dong!
“Huh? Who’s that? I’m not expecting anyone today…”
Rolling my eyes at the fact I had to get up from my gaming chair, I half-heartedly paused my session of Genshin Impact in order to answer the door. However, despite me reaching the entrance in record time, by the time I opened it…
“Damn ding-dong-ditchers… Huh? A package? But I didn’t order anything…”
Curious, I brought the plain parcel inside, inspecting it along the way for any means of identification. Finding nothing, I casually placed it on the dining room table, tearing it open to find… Another box?
“Okay, this HAS to be a prank, or something.”
Inside the cardboard box was a small, wooden one with a rectangular shape. It was carefully placed amidst a sea of packing peanuts, and when I hoisted it out, I noticed a few details. For one, it had a lovely golden trim, made out of some kind of metal which I surmised gave the box a bit of weight. Lining the bottom was a green line of paint, sandwiched by two gold stripes, which was clearly meant to be some kind of recognizable symbol… Which I did not recognize.
At the very top was a latch, which was very easily undone and opened. Curiosity at an all-time high, I lifted the lid and peered inside…
“Ack-! My eyes!”
What lay inside… Was a blinding light!
With one hand, I moved to shield my eyes, though the shining radiance only lasted for a few seconds. Glancing back at the box, I quickly noticed that it felt… Lighter? It was as if that weird light was freed from it, leaving it completely empty.
“That was… Weird. As far as pranks go, that was probably the lamest- Huh?”
Moving my hand away from my glasses, it bumped into something above me. It was soft, sturdy, and…
“I don’t remember putting on a hat today… Wait, this feels way too big!”
Grasping the edge of this supposed hat, I traced its circumference, finding just how large it seemed to be! It circled my entire head! Moving made its extended brim bounce accordingly, as well as signal me to something else at the top. The rest of the hat– the part that actually contained my head– circled into a drooping cone, and judging by the feel…
“Is this… A witch’s hat!? Why would it- Am I dreaming?!”
As I touched my newfound headwear, something else promptly caught my attention…
Bwoomp~
“Ghh, my shirt is so tight… BOOBS?!”
I had been too distracted by this dumb hat to notice something much bigger: my chest! Not only were my jacket and shirt replaced by a rather tight-fitting corset, but my torso… My chest…! I had…!
“B-B-Boobs…!”
I could not help but say it again, this time in a higher pitch than before. They were right there… Hanging off my chest. My general frame had gotten smaller, more compact, and undoubtedly feminine. Flat belly, thin waist, and now… Two bouncing breasts that hung heavily…
…
I wanted to touch them.
Even though they were mine, the thought of groping them felt… Indecent? Naughty? Taboo? But they were right there… Ripe for squishing. Part of me felt bad for not giving them a proper squeeze. After all, one test of their sensitivity would not hurt… Right?
Shrrriip!
Bwoing~
“Kyah! Was that… My ass?!”
I squealed effeminately as a sudden sensation rocked me from behind. Hearing the sound of ripping jeans and feeling a sudden draft, I did not have to be a genius to piece together what had just occurred. Nearly being toppled over by the sudden relocation of weight, yet another urge soon welled up inside of me…
…
I am going to touch it.
My hand seemed like it had a mind of its own as it wandered back and below, guided purely by my subconscious desire. Drawn in by its gravitational pull. Even before it reached its destination, I could feel the increased heat radiating from my own body.
For a brief moment, I hesitated…
Before plunging my lone hand into the sea of fat.
“Ahn~!”
My accidental moan sounded entirely unlike my usual voice, but that was the last thing on my mind. What dominated my thoughts was how unapologetically good my ass felt. What remained of my shirt– now leotard– barely covered any part of my lower section, leaving my cheeks utterly bare and ripe for groping.
Which is exactly what I was doing.
Fingers buried deep into my exposed mound, thoroughly kneading it like the dough it was. My smoothened legs quivered as I bit my lip, putting my other hand to my face in an attempt to calm myself.
“S-So… G-ghhooooood!!”
Speaking shakily, I found it harder to focus on anything except the amazing feelings my body was now providing me. For a few seconds, I noted that my hair was brushing against my back and getting in my eyes, which was odd considering I had just gotten a haircut. No matter, I can just take off my glasses. In fact, I could see better without them now!
Eyewear tossed haphazardly onto the table, I went straight back to feeling myself up. Every part of me was burning with desire. I gulped, feeling the choker around my neck. I was thirsty, both literally and figuratively. So what did I do?
Both hands.
On my rear.
In the short time I was away, my bubble butt had gained a little extra curvature, as well as being protected by a stretchy pair of tights. This did little to hinder my “self-inspection,” and in some ways even made it better! Massaging my marshmallows was borderline melting my mind, I had never felt anything this good before!
Something about it was… Magical.
Tingly, even.
I do not know how I knew, but at some point I could simply tell that whatever transformation was happening to me had finally concluded. Thus, after a few more hearty gropes and some intense panting, I loosely regained enough composure to explore the rest of myself.
“Hah… Hm… This outfit seems familiar…”
Gazing down at my breasts, I idly ran my hands down the length of my torso. This leotard, gloves, even the tights… For as form-fitting as they were, they were still remarkably comfortable and breathable! Plus, the varying shades of blue, purple, and red paired nicely with the gold trim that decorated me from head to toe. However, what finally tipped me off to my full realization were the numerous stars and starry patterns dotted all over my skintight suit.
“These stars… And this hat! Am I… Mona?”
Considering I had played plenty of Genshin Impact, and– Ahem– Admired the astrologist’s design on more than a few occasions, I was able to deduce my situation rather quickly. Even if it was ordinarily impossible and downright absurd.
“B-But why…? I mean, I really like her, but being her is- Oh my gosh, I even sound like her!”
Clutching my throat, it was somewhat scary to hear my inner thoughts emerge in the voice of a fictional woman. Yet, what was happening here was anything but fiction. This was real. My completely average self had been completely overridden, leaving only a dazzlingly beautiful space-themed witch in its place!
“It’s that box’s fault! It turned me into… Her… Ghh, where did it go?!”
As I tried to take a few steps around, just barely getting a feel for how to move in my feminine form, I felt something tugging at one of my feet. Glancing down, I gasped as I spotted what I was searching for.
It was that wooden box! I guess I had knocked it on the ground during my evaluation, and now it was open once again. Although, something else was with it, seeming to have fallen out of it during its tumble.
It was a card. Nothing extraordinary or flashy, just an ordinary blue card, dazzled up with a gold trim and a symbol of a triquetra. Ordinarily, I would have been unphased… But that innocent-looking card was glowing!
The same kind of glow from the box!
My foot was positioned directly above that card, and sure enough, it was being tugged! This pulling became more and more intense, until everything below my knee simply stretched and vanished!
“H-Hold on! Wait! Why is it- Ahh!”
Confusion was at an all-time high, but so was fear as I quickly realized what was happening. That card… Was sucking me in! Almost immediately I tried to retaliate, desperately pulling against this invisible force. But no matter how hard I tried, no matter what I braced against, I simply could not win this impromptu game of tug-o-war.
My luscious legs vanished without a trace, and were quickly followed by my hips. I whimpered as I lost feeling in my rump, paying no mind to the fact I was now suspended in midair. Following my cake was my left arm and tummy, both of which put up little to no resistance.
“S-Someone! Please help! I’m not Mona! I don’t-”
Extending my free hand out as much as I could, there was sadly nothing around for me to grab, and no one around to hear me. My twintails, boobs, and even part of my hat were pulled into the void beyond, robbing me of the voice that was not even mine to begin with.
My pretty face was engulfed by the card’s light, followed soon after by my still-reaching hand. Every part of me was gone. Vanished. Only the card was left floating in my place, no longer glowing as it had seemed to complete its mission.
…
But I was still here.
Still conscious.
Still alive.
But I could not move.
I could still feel Mona’s body– My body, but something was very wrong. I was obviously trapped, completely robbed of my ability to move. I struggled; I summoned all of my willpower to command myself to move, but I never once budged. Even moving my eyes was utterly impossible!
Can’t move…! Where am I? Am I stuck inside that stupid card!?
While I uselessly fought back, my newfound prison suddenly began to move. I was flying through the air– No, cutting through the air was more appropriate. In addition to being completely immobile, I could finally tell what else was wrong…
I was completely flat.
Not in terms of the asset department, I could tell those were preserved, but rather my dimensionality. I was not a three-dimensional being, at least not anymore. Not only was my body forced into a highly-specific pose, but it also completely lacked any form of depth! I was as thin as a piece of paper!
Oh no… No no no! Am I really-?! This can’t be real… This can’t be happening!
Desperately trying to find anything to look at myself with, all I could see was whatever was directly in front of me. Meaning I mainly saw the ceiling, floor, and an all-too familiar table. However, for a brief moment, I saw my fridge. My brand-new, reflective-silver fridge. And in that reflective coating, I saw myself.
A card.
A floating card.
A floating card with a dynamically-posed picture of Mona.
Me.
Frozen in place, staring stoically at the nonexistent viewer.
An exquisitely-designed TCG card.
While that moment barely lasted a second, I had garnered more than enough information, as well as confirmation of what I had feared most.
I’m Mona… I’m a card of Mona…! A TCG card of a fictional character!!
Several emotions were running through my mind as reality finally hit me. Obviously I was worried, confused, and downright terrified, but…
Part of me felt… Relieved?
Being a woman– Being Mona felt really nice… And even if I was just a small, two-dimensional image of her now, I was still technically her. Plus, as far as I knew, I didn’t have to worry about any of my real-life obligations as a card. My only purpose was to be played in-game, and be looked at…
My design IS really pretty… Maybe… Maybe this isn’t so bad?
Despite my initial worries, I felt much more content as I was halted and lowered into that wooden box I had found not too long ago. I could feel other cards sandwiching me as I was inserted into my spot. Were some of them like me, too? It was impossible to tell, but being slotted into “my place” invoked more than a few positive emotions.
Engulfed in darkness as the lid closed, I somehow felt right at home. I am a card, after all…
Hopefully I’m a part of a really strong deck~!
