"Chuck, how does it feel to have grown a tail?" Norris, who had already blended in with several other Mist Phenomenon patients, asked one of them.
The patient named Chuck twitched the beast-like tail behind him and replied, "It's like... having an extra long, oddly placed finger."
"Hmm... is that so..." Norris looked at that tail, not sure what he was thinking.
At this moment, a child around seven or eight years old, squatting among a corner of mushrooms, weakly spoke: "Big brother Norris, I want to go home, I miss my mom."
The child's nails were atypical, slender and sharp, effortlessly slicing through the mushrooms when touched.
Norris squatted down in front of the child, who instinctively pulled back his fingers, almost scratching his own palm before Norris swiftly caught them.
