(Originally posted as a response to @lorenziniforce on cohost posting a timeline of effects of HRT that makes you into a dragon. This is the #1 story on the list for Project: Regenesis if I go that route. Also I'm changing the name to something I can spell consistently. Maybe just Project Rewrite.)

 ”Face it,” Lily said to herself. “This is just like last time. You knew then what you needed to do. This is no different just because it’s newer.”

Congratulations on starting your transition! Now that the options for nonhuman, otherworldly, and xenoborne transitions exist, we here at Occlusion are proud to be the number one nonprofit assisting all those looking to transition into bodies that better match your internal life.

As a quick note, Occlusion only assists with hylic and sarkic transitions - those seeking robotic, digital, or cybernetic transitions should contact our sister organization, Mechify! If you are looking for both, we can assist you in finding a doctor that will help you understand which is the ideal starting point for your transition goals.

Those seeking otherworldly powers but no permanent physical alterations or should seek non-transition methods of developing arcane abilities or petition for sponsorship with one of the NuGods - for the former, click here for a directory of mage’s guilds in your area, and for the latter click here for Pantheon Now for assistance navigating the divine sponsorship programs.

If you need assistance because you are Sarkic or Hylic and facing discrimination for your transition, a directory of affirming lawyers in your area can be found here.

Now then, which of these terms best describes your proper form? If you already know, head directly to the correct page for more information.

• Draconic (Includes all other scaled forms with paranormal abilities. Note that these transitions do include draconic energies - those looking for a draconic aesthetic without the energetic influences are better served undergoing a combination of Bestial therapies specializing in scale, tail, and/or wing formation.)
• Bestial (Includes all transitions into a humanoid body with animalistic features. Bestial transitions can include the infusion of Occultogen to facilitate the development of paranormal abilities.)
• Esoteric (Includes all transitions that do not map fully to the laws of the natural world. Note that Esoteric transitions are forms that cannot be fully expressed purely by biology or physics, and as such must include the energetic transition.)
• Demonic (Includes all fiendish transitions. Note that these transitions do include demonic energies - those looking for the demonic aesthetic without the energetic influences are better served undergoing a combination of Bestial and Draconic transitions.)
• Angelic (Includes all celestial transitions. Note that these transitions do include angelic energies - those looking for the angelic aesthetic without the energetic influences are better served undergoing a combination of Bestial and Mythic transitions.)

Occlusion is here to assist you as well if you are looking for support groups specialized in your particular morphotype in your area, finding therapy or therapy resources if you are uncertain if transition is right for you, and financial assistance with your transition if needed.

The page loads quickly. The Ethernet wasn’t exactly the same as the Internet it replaced, being partially a digital plane of existence, but it was still built on the same general principles and adapted to work with old world computers. Lily had studied both computer science and sigilcraft in college, she knew the underlying tech like the back of her hand. The 2032 era tablet was using was one of the last models produced that wasn’t designed for the Ethernet specifically, but it had been designed for Ethernet support - the clicking sound had been a bit of legacy code to help the older generations feel more comfortable with the psychic controls.

You’ve selected Esoteric transition!

The text was over three photos. In the center was a girlthing that made Lily’s breath catch in her throat. The figure was feminine, and had a baseline human anatomy still - so one head, two arms, and two legs. Pronouns were listed beneath the image, Xi/Zer. Xi also had large, iridescent compound eyes, feathery antennae rising like trees from zer bright pink pixie cut hair, and four graceful tentacles ending in suckers emerging from zer back. Zer forearms and shins were covered in a glittering black carapace with spikes, and the parts of zer skin that were still skin were the rainbow of colors only possible via chromatophores. Some of the patches on zer shoulders and stomach - revealed by the crop top xi wore - were not just the result of zer shifting skin, but sigils that would help zer control the living shadow that currently formed the carapace on zer limbs.

Xi was perfect. Not exactly what Lily wanted, but so close to Lily’s dream that it was almost painful to see. She was no stranger to gender envy, and the only thing that kept the sensation from being too bad was the knowledge that this was within Lily’s grasp.

Her parents had barely tolerated her starting estrogen, but they were millennials so they had put up a good front for the sake of their progressive friends. “Oh, of course she’s our daughter now,” as if Lily couldn’t hear the feminine terms curdling on their tongues.

They’d gone ballistic when she came out as sarkic. 2052 barely tolerated human gendered transitions, but this? Lily had expected it to go badly, but the memory still hurt.

Lily pushed the thoughts aside. Today was a happy day. Today was the first day of the next stage of her life. When she’d realized she was trans, the term that was used was an egg cracking for that discovery. Realizing she was sarkic?

That was called her chrysalis breaking.

“We’ve already had second puberty,” Lily muttered under her breath with a grin. She glanced out the window, looking up at Earth’s new second moon, the deep purple orb that was the source of everything that made this possible. “What about third puberty?”

There was only one way to find out. Lily scrolled down.
