[@ASplashOfMusic] I mean, imagine each bone in your body shrinking and growing at the same time, reforming to create the structure necessary for a new creature. Each organ shredding itself and rebuilding and connecting and breaking to form the innards. Your skin, melting and shedding and ripping and stretching and bursting with furs and feathers and scales, talons and claws bursting from already taut fingertips. Your body being brought to the brink, to the threshold of its ability to withstand pain. Being conscious throughout that transformation. I think that's an incredible punishment. 

I've read way too many werewolf novels, lol.
