(Birthday gift from the super amazing and wonderful https://www.furaffinity.net/user/furii who decided I needed to make a new career move. For some reason I agree completely!)

The badge made a perfect birthday gift. After all, the movie itself had been so adorable. Who couldn’t use a little cosplay in their life? I simply smiled and held it to the light. It shimmered in the light, reflecting like a prism. My very own ZPD badge. I just wished I knew who sent it.

The golden light seemed to intensify as I admired it. The golden hues reflected in my eyes in an almost mesmerizing fashion. For some reason I couldn’t stop looking at it. The light spread down my arms in a wave. I watched in amazement as the muscles started to swell. They tore through my shirt like it was made of tissue. Soft, orange fur spread like the sparkles. The pelt swirled up my arm into a resplendent striped coating.

I knew it was strange, but the colors and shimmering splendor held me transfixed. I could feel my thick, beastly arm start to move. The fingers flexed and sprouted claws, and quickly started to tear away at my shirt. My other arm shifted to match in perfect symmetry. They made short work of the simple t-shirt, revealing even more fur.

The cold badge pressed against my now fluffy chest, and for some reason that felt so right. I knew I needed to wear it. That was the most important thing. The strange tugging sensation on my ears wasn’t important. Nor was that odd pressure as my face pushed forwards into ta feline muzzle. It didn’t even matter as fur spread down to my most intimate nethers. I needed to wear that badge.

I could feel my feet squirm in my shoes. One flex and new claws ripped through the simple leather. My new paw pads were so soft, I hardly even needed them. They were hardly tailored to the tiger on the go. I let out a soft purr, the sensation rumbling through my chest. I held the badge to my chest fur and grumbled. Something was missing.

The uniform was waiting for me, luckily. I dressed into it as if I had worn it every day of my life. Even the tie was simple muscle memory. I pinned the badge on to my breast.
