   I hope not.

   I’m not a science person so I doubt I’d ever turn into a hybrid in a scenario like The Fly. So, if I ever turned into a hybrid it would have to be some absolutely crazy freak accident without me trying or something against my will. Maybe being a victim of testing which in that case, I guess I’d become a hybrid of something like a rat or monkey. Both are used for scientific discovery so it would make sense to hybrid with one of them during a testing accident. I think it would be interesting to at least know would I be human size or rat size. All I know is if I become a hybrid with any animal my will to live will probably drop because no animal has food as good as humans

   Forum Answer for topic #5

   I have no clue how I would get turned into a mutated human with his genes spliced together with something non-human such as Brundlefly. It would have to be from some new scientific discovery that I was the guinea pig in. If I had to pick, it would be something really cool that I mutated into like a lion or a cheetah. I would love to have the speed of a cheetah or the strength of a lion.

   Re: If you were to change ________

   I think it would be horrible to be turned into a plant, specifically I'm going to say a fungus (I know its technically not a plant). I think the idea of turning into a plant is horrifying because your also losing any form of conciseness. You would still be alive, but you would loss the ability to know you exist. I think for the reason for transforming, I would want it to be a muted fungus that infect the body and takes over. I think fungus makes it even more uncomfortable because there is a connection between fungus, and death and decay.

   Hybrid

   I would combine myself with a bird. I would definitely be persuaded by some unethical scientist promising that he is going to give me the ability of flight, but rather I turned into a winged and feathered human with a beak. I think I would hate it at first, but I would like it more as I flew because I think that would be really neat.

   Hybrid

   I would be apart of a lab experiment gone terribly wrong. Looking to make the next breakthrough in skin cell reproduction but turns out the results have morphed me in to a two headed walking bird with yellow wormy eyes and black scaly skin. During the day I would appear in my human form and all is well in the world. In the night time things begin to slowly change, as my predator instincts kick in and my need for human flesh must be met.
