I really like this story, and it went a fairly different direction from what I was anticipating. This is one of the few kinds of stories with a twist based on the species (not) being human that I actually enjoy and didn't see the twist coming in. It does a particularly good job of making a narrator able to explain the science of how something like this works without... disconnecting from the reader, since the better phrase seems to elude me now that I'm actually trying to type it. There's also a level of authenticity to the reaction to the change, which I find many usually write things like that in a way that seems forced and either unrealistically sudden and accurate or taking an amount of time that overall simply frustrates the reader with how idiotic the narrator was written to be. It's a realistic observation of a species that would be considered "alien" to this narrator, a good way of hiding the twist towards the end, an interesting premise. All in all, 9/10. Not because I have a problem with it, but because everything has room to improve when nothing is perfect. 9 is my highest rating
