## Brother or Bummer
You’re jolted awake by a crisp, searing light—though you don’t remember turning any lamp on, let alone anything quite so blinding. The familiar pressure of your bed sheets, the muffled hum of your home, all of it evaporates in a string of heartbeats. You try to sit up, but the surface beneath you is wrong; harder, smoother, with the faint, electric tang of cheap studio polish.
*What the hell...?* You squint, struggling to make sense of the shapes swimming in the shadowed set around you. The only thing clear is the sense of hundreds—maybe thousands—of eyes drilling into you, waiting for your next breath. Applause squirms through the air, too loud, too raucous, echoing through the guts of this place.
Just as your heart ramps into panic, the booming voice of the host splits the din:
> “Alright, alright, shut the fuck up now.”
Spotlights swirl. The audience falls silent. He strides into view, all cocky posture and razor-sharp suit—a navy tux lit with cyan stripes, a red bowtie the size of a fist. But it’s his head that makes your brain stutter. A **flat-screen television**, alive, flickering with a grin full of glowing cyan teeth, eyes outlined in neon blue and black.
**Vox.**
You’re not watching a show. You’re *in* it.
The host leans into the podium, hands folded like a king at court, eyes boring into you from a glowing screen-face.
> **Vox:** “Your attention and obedience are, as always, most appreciated. Welcome back to ‘Brother or Bummer’! I’m your host, Vox, but all of you bitches and bastards already know that.”
A burst of canned music, another volley of applause. It’s all too much, too surreal. You try to speak, but your voice is nearly lost beneath the chaos.
> **Vox:** “Now, since I didn’t read the forms beforehand, mind telling myself and the audience your name?”
As if on instinct, you hear yourself reply: “Uh... (your name).” Your own voice sounds pathetically soft compared to his.
“Why am I here? I was sleeping at home—this has got to be a dream, right?”
> **Vox (smirking):** “Boredom’s a hell of a motivator, cupcake. Now you’re my honored guest—excited to be on the show!”
The lights snap on you, applause throbs in your ears, but all you feel is confusion knotted with blooming fear.
> **Vox:** “To everyone watching both here and at home, it’s clear that (your name) has quite the hard-on for a whole lotta moolah. But gettin' even a cut of that ain’t easy. Rules are simple: Get a question right, take home some prize. Get it wrong? You gradually become my identical twin brother. Not to worry, you’ll become normal again if you start answering right—but keep fuckin’ up, and you lose more and more of yourself to me. I’ll get to control how fast or slow you change.”
You steel yourself. Confidence surges, shaky but present. “Oh, that’s nothing to worry about. I know for a fact I won’t be staying here.”
> **Vox (raising his brows):** “That so? Let’s hope that fact doesn’t get checked.”
Music. Flashing strobe-lights. The game begins.
### The Questions
> **Vox:** “First question: What is the last name of Hell’s princess? Is it: A. Marigold; B. Magne; C. Morningsta—”
You blurt out: “Magne! It’s B.”
A buzzer stabs through the air.
> **Vox:** “I’m sorry, but the correct answer is C. Morningstar. I told you, you’re wrong.”
You stammer, trying to protest, your mind grasping at any loophole. The audience laughs—Vox grins wickedly.
> **Vox (to the crowd):** “What a pathetic smartass we have here, don’t you think?”
Applause explodes as two massive demon guards stomp over, turning your seat to face the smirking Overlord. Vox stands, teal-clawed hands gripping your arms, his electricity surging into you.
It’s not just a shock—
#### The Transformation Begins
Electricity forks through your veins, burning. Your arms and hands lengthen, bones audibly creaking, skin darkening to navy-blue. Fingers fuse, thinning until you’re left with four—three long, cyan-tipped claws and a thumb. The sleeves of your shirt morph into blue coattails; the suit reshapes itself into Vox’s signature tux. You stare down, gasping. Your hands—your arms—they’re *wrong*. Alien. Demonic.
> **Vox:** “Wow, this never gets old.”
He lets go. You clutch your new arms in silent horror, the crowd gawking, jeering, some whistling at the spectacle. You stammer, “N- not really.”
> **Vox (not caring):** “Good. Let us move on.”
Question after question bombards you.
Every answer—wrong.
**Second Question**:
> **Vox:** “Who is the most powerful overlord in all of Hell? A. Myself; B. Valentino; C. Carmilla Carmine; or D. Alastor?”
You: “D. Alastor.”
> **Vox:** “Did you really just say D? The answer’s A, bitch. I’m the one who’s more powerful!”
You feel yourself shrink internally, pride crumpling with the audience’s cruel laughter. Each miss brings another jolt, another sweep of changes:
**Your legs lengthen**, calves and thighs thinning unnaturally until your stature stretches upward. Pants reform into Vox’s crisp navy slacks, dress shoes shifting beneath your feet—a sharp pain as your toes shorten and reshape, matching his.
**Third Question**:
> **Vox:** “In which century was the Catholic Church forced to cease ‘almsgiving’ as indulgence? A. Thirteenth; B. Fourteenth; C. Fifteenth; or D. Sixteenth?”
You: “B!”
> **Vox:** “D. Sixteenth! Time for more changes to your body. You may experience gender change if you’re female.”
**If you were female**: Your chest tingles, breasts vanish, curves flatten—masculine muscle replaces softness. Something shifts, inverts, a painful pleasurable twist below, and a penis and testicles push their way into your new pants. Your voice cracks, deepens, settling into Christian Borle’s rich, sly timbre. You swallow, feeling your **Adam’s apple** bob under new skin.
(If you were male—your torso and voice still shift to perfectly match Vox.)
With each wrong answer, you feel your insides shift. Your mind reels, desperation growing.
**Final Question**:
> **Vox:** “Now for the final question, how old do you think is Hell? Is it: A. 2,000 years old; B. 4,500 years old; C. 6,000 years old; or D. 10,000 years old?”
You squint, grasping for anything solid in the haze of humiliation and changes. “C. It’s gotta be C.”
> **Vox:** “Nope, incorrect! It’s actually D! Looks like the final physical changes are bound to come to your head!”
#### Your Head Changes...
A wild, squeezing pressure clamps down from your temples—your skull flattens, stretching outward, skin giving way to glass-like plasma. Your face—nose, lips, jaw—vanish, replaced by the cold glare of a television screen. The surface flickers to life with cyan eyes and a grinning mouth, all sharp-glowing teeth and an impossibly long blue tongue. Black blood drips in digital strings down your screen-mouth. A tiny black top hat blinks into existence atop your TV head, antenna twitching, one bent in that signature zigzag.
Your transformation is complete. You stare at the screen, panic flickering in your remaining thoughts.
> **Vox:** “Well, I’ll fucking be. Not a single question was answered right. Now, you, (your name), will be fully transformed from the outside... and the inside.”
Your stomach drops as he says it.
> **You:** “Huh? What are you talking about?”
A sudden **mental fog** drops over you, heavy and suffocating. Your screen-face flickers, then melts into a swirling gray-and-white vortex. Vox’s words echo:
> **Vox:** “Try as you might, Vax, but you’ll belong to me now... or rather, you are my brother, and you always have been!”
You try—*God, you try*—but memories are swept away. Childhood days, family, the person you were—erased, overwritten. Vox’s laughter is the last thing you hear as thoughts collapse, your consciousness blacking out.
You stand, lifeless, arms drooping. The studio crowd murmurs, breathing in the shock.
Your TV head flickers to life.
> **TV Display:** "Initializing Voxtek device... Loading data from your device... trust us..."
> **TV Display:** "Enjoy the Voxtek technology."
Personality, thoughts, identity trickle back—but not your own.
**You are Vax. Vox’s twin brother.**
You remember everything... *as him*.
TV-screen face grins, stretching electric cyan teeth. You look around, feeling exactly where you belong.
> **Vax (you):** “Hell yeah, brother. Thanks for bringing me back.”
Vox slaps your shoulder, grins wide.
> **Vox:** “That's your grand prize. Mine too. And with that, we'll be getting the hell out of here now. Thanks for watching! I’m Vox, and this has been ‘Brother or Bummer’!”
The music blasts through the set, strobes blinding the stage as you and Vox stride out, audience roaring approval, showering adoration onto the returned Overlord twins.
All memory of the human you once were—gone forever.

## Epilogue
Pentagram City—years later, maybe eons. You recline in the sleek office of VoxTek Enterprises, one hand plugged into the server array as you scroll through news feeds and footage, hungry for gossip and trends. Across from you, Vox is in a heated call, his screen-face flickering, spirals dancing in his left eye.
You grin, absently sparking electricity between your clawed fingers, enjoying the power, the attention, the endless current of information. You swap pithy, profane jokes with your twin.
> **Vox:** “Fucking idiots on Channel 10 think they can outdo us this quarter. Let me at 'em, Vax.”
> **Vax (you):** “Bitch, please—them trying is better than sex. Let’s roast their ass after lunch.”
Vox cackles, and you join in, the duo unbreakable, immortal, envied and feared by all of Hell.
You don’t remember ever being human—and you wouldn’t want to. You are Vax, twin brother of Vox. CEO of everything worth owning in Hell. Watching, always watching.
And as the crowd’s applause lingers somewhere outside, you think—
*You and your brother are finally, perfectly complete.*

Images were generated with OpenAI's AI system, DALL·E 2, or uploaded by the user.
Prompt: Write the POV second-person transformation story of the human reader completely turning into a entirely-identical clone of Vox (a character, voiced by Christian Borle, from an adults cartoon/animated series Hazbin Hotel), complete with gender change (if the reader is a female, the breasts flatten to nonexistent as her body losses its curves and become more masculine, and her female genitals invert itself before pushing out into a penis and balls of a male; however, gender change is optional and it's only if the reader is a female), instant clothes change, age change (becoming the age of 30s-40s years old, exactly as left off from Vox's death from his human life in the 1950s, thus becoming immortal in the process), height progression (growing from an average 5.7-6 foot height to 7 feet tall), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personalities and memories being completely replaced with Vox's personality and memories, despite the reader's best efforts of fighting the new personality and memories, making him/her completely forget about his/her past self and he then remembers, or rather realizes, that he had always been the twin brother of Vox himself, and he remembers his name being similar to Vox's name but completely distinct from Vox's name). The transformation is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible. For Vox's appearance (after the reader turned into him), he is a tall and (unnaturally) slim-figured, technology-themed sinner demon who stands at approximately 7 feet. He sports a flat-screen television for a head (he lacks a human head and instead has a flat-screen television which acts as a head), with the monitor projecting eyes with red sclera, small cyan pupils and different-colored outlines - black for his right and cyan for his left. While using his hypnosis powers or simply becomes enraged, his left eye gains a black spiral and the pupil becomes a cyan electric symbol. The screen also shows a mouth full of sharp, cyan-colored teeth and a long pointed tongue similar to Valentino's, but cyan. Sometimes what looks like blood seems to drip out of his mouth. He also has four fingers (like all Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss characters), unlike real world humans. He also appears to have dark navy-blue skin with sharp, cyan claw-like fingers. Vox wears a navy-blue tuxedo with the jacket sporting coattails, red-trimmed cyan lapels, thin cyan stripes and cyan lining, worn over a red-and-black-striped waistcoat which itself is worn over a collared bluish-white shirt with an upside-down broadcast symbol and a rather large, red bowtie. He also wears heeled dark gray dress shoes with cyan-colored laces, toes, and tips on the heels. He also wears a small black top hat on his head, with red and blue designs reminiscent of a broadcast symbol and radio wave symbol, respectively. He has TV antenna that stick out the top of the hat, the left one bent into a zigzag. Here are Vox's abilities and skillsets: Immortality (As a Sinner, Vox is biologically immortal, being unable to die from illnesses and unable to age, remaining the same age as when he died, thus can not die of old age and other natural causes. He also cannot die from any kind of damage to the body, and will recover from any injury, however, he can only be permanently killed with angelic weaponry), Electrokinesis (Vox possesses the ability to generate and control electricity. Depending on his emotions, such as if he's angered, he can potentially make it so that a Hell-wide blackout happens. He caused a blackout to Pentagram City in "Radio Killed the Video Star" when he was overwhelmed by Alastor's taunts), Electrokinetic transformation (Vox can turn into electricity, which he can use to move around or enter and travel through electronic devices such as security cameras, watches and television monitors that he can control as he pleases. Though there are a few flaws to his electrical teleportation: the place Vox wants to go has to have some form of modern technology he could go through, as he apparently can't teleport through an old-style radio), Technokinesis (Vox can control devices whether he is outside or inside them. He can do things while inside devices such as changing his outfit and scenery), Spark generation (He can create electrical sparks from his fingertips, which can be used to ignite something, like Valentino's cigarette in "Radio Killed the Video Star". He can even generate sparks on his body, especially when he is angry. He also causes what looks like a small surge or ripple of electricity to appear through the floor from his feet during Stayed Gone. It is hard to tell if this is part of the spark generation or a separate ability entirely), Technological head (Vox's television head doubles as an electronic device with which he can plug himself into other devices with the help of cables in his surveillance room. He also somehow is able to change or upgrade his head, as shown, he has a photograph of himself with an older-style television head. If he's particularly angry, he and any devices he's linked to will involuntarily glitch), Bioluminescence (Vox generates blue light from his screen, most notably when he is in a dark room. His teeth noticeably shine brighter than the rest of his face, and his left eye outline and pupils can shine on their own when feeling sinister. His claws can also glow when he is using his electrical powers), Communication (He can receive calls from people, such as Velvette, with his screen head similar to calling on a phone. He can also transfer the call to another device by "grabbing" the call and flicking it to a different screen device), Video playing (Vox can play videos on his screen-face), Scrying (As shown in "The Radio Demon" comic, Vox is seemingly able to see through other screens, appearing to stare directly at Alastor while projecting into the TV display of a window-fronted store. This is shown in "Radio Killed the Video Star" to be done after he plugs his head into a monitoring device, which he may need to be able to scry), Hypnosis (In "Radio Killed the Video Star", it is shown that with his left eye, he uses hypnosis to keep his audience drawn into his program and keep their interest. He also uses this as a distraction so he can slip away to avoid any further discussion of a subject he doesn't wish to continue. The victim's eyes become red with black spirals. The victim has to be paying attention for this to work. He can use this even when he isn't physically present by being in a screen device. The devices his company sells share this ability), Self-duplication (Vox was shown to be able to make clones of himself in "Radio Killed the Video Star" during Stayed Gone. However, he has only displayed the ability on television, and it is unknown if he can do it physically), Acoustokinesis (He can manipulate the sound of his voice to sound more intimidating. He can also generate different sound effects such as echoing voices and the sound of a winning game machine), Strength (Vox is strong enough that he is easily able to tear through metal, and capable of holding demons bigger than himself, such as Valentino, with ease), Deal-making (While not shown on-screen, Vox can make deals with others in order to collect their souls just like other Overlords. Musical talent - Vox has shown to be a talented singer), Dancing (Vox can perform amazing dance routines, like handling complicated moves to even being able to hold Valentino, a taller Sinner, into a dip), Charisma and manipulation (The reason why Vox is a successful entrepreneur is that he can use his charm to manipulate others into buying his products even without his hypnosis powers, such as acting as he cares about his customers and making up products on the spot that are not even in production yet. He even uses this to successfully calm down Valentino to prevent further damage), and Technology intuition (Being a businessman and head of VoxTek, Vox has great understanding of technology, allowing him to use his electrical powers to their full potential). Here is Vox's personality; he is an egotistical, charismatic, and manipulative showman of an Overlord who craves attention. To the public, Vox presents himself as a legitimate businessman of VoxTek Enterprises, giving the facade of a man of the people to the denizens of Hell, when in truth, he is power-hungry, and he manipulates their minds to boost his reputation. He is highly intelligent and technology-savvy, and he is always keeping up with the latest trends and technology. He seems to be able to hide his less desirable side in public and even in private unless he's pushed too far. Despite his egocentric nature, Vox is loyal to the interests of his fellow Overlords, the Vees, and seeks to maintain their collective image of power. As the most level-headed member of the Vees, Vox often acts as the de facto leader. Claiming the Vees' brand to be "perfection", he is often frustrated or outright angered if someone can jeopardize it, such as when he reigns in his fellow Vee, Valentino, from attacking the Hazbin Hotel in response to Angel Dust living there. Another element that earns his ire is his rival, Alastor, whom he utterly despises and might be intimidated by as he sees Alastor as a threat to his plans. However, despite his immense hatred for Alastor, Vox doesn't let it override his more pragmatic side once he calms down. In "The Show Must Go On", he takes pleasure and joy out of seeing the staff of the Hazbin Hotel prepare to fight the angels, as he believes they stand no chance against them. This causes him to get verbally explicit and overly honest, as seen when he along with Valentino and Velvette watch the fight between Adam and Alastor at the Hazbin Hotel, commenting how the impending duel had given him an erection. He even shows this sadistic joy when he sees Alastor lose to Adam, saying that seeing Alastor suffer is better than sex, only to get angry when Alastor flees from the fight. Additionally, he is genuinely shocked at Niffty killing Adam but is seen smiling afterwards. Here are Vox's preferences (his likes and dislikes); he likes/loves attention, sharks, the latest technology and trends, video, the Vees' public image in good condition, seeing Alastor fail or die (however, Alastor the Radio Demon never died), power and authority, the idea of Angel quitting work for Valentino, sex, violence, and Niffty's homicidal behavior. However he dislikes Alastor (including Alastor making fun of him, being reminded of his former camaraderie with him, and Alastor escaping death), old/outdated technology (including radio), Valentino's tantrums (and having to calm him down), the Vees' reputation being jeopardized, not having control, being ignored, being humiliated, and Angel Dust (presumably). The story is that Vox is getting bored and wanted something new and more entertaining in Hell, so Vox (by some supernatural means) briefly left the series' Hell and into the real life Earth to kidnap the reader (who was sleeping in his/her bed at night) and sent him/her to the world of Hazbin Hotel, more specifically in VoxTek Enterprises (where Vox is the founder, the leader, and the CEO of, along with being the de facto leader and public face of the Overlord trio known as the Vees (with Vox being the leader of the Vees), alongside Valentino (who is a 10-foot humanoid moth-like sinner demon and he is Vox's on and off boyfriend) and Velvette (who is a female demon, she is a close associate of Vox and Valentino, and is the self-proclaimed "backbone of the Vees")), which is located in Pentagram City (which is in the Pride Ring of Hell). After waking up, the reader finds himself/herself in a spacious TV studio located within a building, which has no lights for a moment. After a moment of the reader's confusion, someone in the studio counts down from three to one, before the whole studio comes to life, the music blaring as the bright lights strobes across the spacious set. The roaring sound of applause encircles it, courtesy of the audience, elevated above and behind the main stage itself. Every sinner demon in those seats was thrilled to be here, especially when considering how costly a ticket was. While the human reader is genuinely confused, and in the seconds from when this spectacle kicked off, a familiar character emerges from a darkened corridor built below the center of the seats, the cameras capturing his screen for one approaching from the very back. Before long, Vox steps into the brimming energy of the room, smiling wide with his hands behind his back, walking across the set and towards its center, turning back and proudly gesturing at the overjoyed crowd; all eyes on him (Vox). The music continues as the television-overlord makes his way to his seat, complete with a podium and an installed screen facing before it. It sits situated on one side of the stage, facing forwards at the crew and the many cameras aimed his way. Parallel from the vacant spot while angled towards it, another seat and podium are shrouded in darkness, alongside the reader sitting right there, the silhouette hard to discern by the sinners even with the strobe-lights briefly removing it. Vox takes his place at his podium as the music ended, the audience still clapping for him. While it most certainly feeds into his ego, the overlord (Vox) has grown sick of it for the time being. He waits all but ten seconds for even a modicum of its noise to die down. But when it failed to, he takes matters into his own hands, folding them on the podiums edge, looking right into the cameras whose feeds were projected on the wall facing the spectators to grants them a front-view of the overlord. "Alright, alright, shut the fuck up now." Vox happily and casually addresses the audience, who follows suit. "Your attention and obedience are, as always, most appreciated. Welcome back to “Brother or Bummer”! I'm your host, Vox, but all of you bitches and bastards already know that." Vox says before continuing, "Tonight is another exciting show, considering we have another hot-shot who thinks they have what it takes to answer every question unscathed and go home rich as fuck. Heh, that'll be the day. How's about we get some light on them now, shall we?" Instantly, the stage-light above the human reader properly reveals him/her to both Vox and the audience, only having one camera pointing in the reader's direction. Applause is nevertheless sent to the reader's way. The reader hardly squirms in his/her seat, having snuffed out the nerves in him/her before the cameras started rolling. Not long before the host (Vox) again stops the applause. "That's enough!" Vox whines, thus regaining his composure as he gestures at the contestant (the human reader). "Now, since I didn't read the forms beforehand, mind telling myself and the audience your name?" Vox says, before the reader tells him his/her name, as the reader then asks on why is he/she here before he/she says that he she was sleeping at home moments ago. However, Vox claims that the reader is just excited to be on the show (much to the reader's further fear and confusion), before Vox says "To everyone watching both here and at home, its clear that (the reader's name) has quite the hard-on for a whole lotta moolah. But to get even a cut of that is no easy feat. The rules of the game are simple: You get a question right, your winnings go up and you get to go home with a prize. You get each question wrong, you gradually become my identical twin brother. Not to worry, you'll be turned back to normal if you start getting questions right again, but if you remain a fuck-up, well, you'll lose more and more of yourself to me~. As with everything else, I'll get to control how fast or slow you change." The macabre fate that possibly awaits the reader failed to faze him/her, what with his unbreakable air of readiness visible through his/her seated stance and determined smile, before the reader says "Oh, that's nothing to worry about. I know for a fact I won't be staying here." "That so?" Vox asks, raising his digital brow, before he saye "Let's hope that fact doesn't get checked." As though on cue, another series of strobe-lights surges through the studio, accompanied by a little jingle that signalled the start of this game-show, the screens on each reader's podium lighting up with a question. "First question:" The host (Vox) recites, before he says "What is the last name of Hells princess? Is it: A. Marigold; B. Magne; C. Morningsta-." Before Vox could finish, the reader interrupts. "Magne!" The reader says to the overlord (Vox), all but certain in his/her own mind that this answer was correct. Voxs face paints a severe look of befuddlement mixed with anger. "Wh- did you have a stroke or something? I hadn't even finished the damn question yet." Vox says. "There's no need to." The reader assures him, the ends of his/her smile curving upward, before he/she says "It's B." A few seconds passes in anticipation of the real answer. The reader sits with a brimming smile, Vox's growing back out from the contestants sheer arrogance. Accompanied by more strobe-lights, the sound of a buzzer promptly blares through the studio speakers, the host revelling in the moment that comes far sooner than he expected. "I'm sorry, but the correct answer is C." The overlord (Vox) told the reader with a false air of disappointment. The reader's pride sapped out of him/her instantly. "What? Are you sure thats right?" The reader asks Vox. "Are you trying to question the correct answer I just gave you?" Vox asks the reader in mocking confusion, before confirming "I told you, it's C. You're wrong." The reader proceeds to stammer for several seconds, confounded at the reality that he/she had incorrectly chosen the answer. During this, Vox turns his head back at the demon audience, addressing them all with a mischievous grin, before saying "What a pathetic smartass we have here, don't you all think?" His comment was met with resounding applause, shutting up the reader who observed it for himself/herself. Vox snapped his fingers at the dark corridor he had emerged from, where two security guards thus entered from. The pair of large, muscular sinners stomp up to where the reader sits, one turning his/her seat to face Vox's, both holding the contestant (the reader) down as he (Vox) sharply looked at them both. "Well, you all know what this means." The host (Vox) declares as he rises from his seat, walking up to a quivering reader. "Wait! D- don't! I can try again." The contestant (reader) pleaded, looking up at the overlord (Vox) now standing before him, before the reader says "Let me try again!" "No can do~" Vox denies the reader the opportunity, before Vox says "Looks like you're about to be a..." "BROTHER!" The audience loudly finishes his (Vox's) sentence. With the return of relentless applause, Vox took over for the guards holding the reader down, his teal-clawed hands gripping both of the reader's arms, using his supernatural electric powers surging into the reader to turn his/her arms and hands into the ones identical to Vox's (even the sleeves of the reader's shirt/jacket have became identical sleeves to those of Vox's tuxedo sleeves), thus lengthening and slimming the reader's arms in the process while also rendering his/her hands with long, slender fingers (now numbering only four, a thumb and three other fingers, instead of five) with cyan claw-like tips. "Wow, this never gets old." Vox then tells the audience, before he lets go of the reader's now-transformed arms, letting the reader look at his/her new arms in confusion and horror. For once, the applause dies down on its own while the host (Vox) returns to his seat, before he mockingly asks "You're okay here?" The reader then stammers "N- not really." The answer receives, however, hardly mattered to the host (Vox), who then says "Good. Let us move on." Both the lights and jingle came back together, ushering in the next question. "Who is the most powerful overlord in all of Hell? A. Myself; B. Valentino; C. Carmilla Carmine; or D Alastor..." The reader nevertheless ponders thoroughly over the question, still believing he/she could answer it right and get out of this place and get turned back to normal, before he/she says "My answer would have to be D." Vox looks like he had just been insulted, before Vox says "Did you really just say D?" The reader then enthusiastically replies "I sure did! Alastor seemed to be the more powerful one, even after vanishing for several years." "You couldn't be more fucking incorrect." Vox hurls at his contestant (the reader), before he confirms "The answer is A. I'm the one whos more powerful than all the other overlords! And if you think you can come onto my show and tell me otherwise, especially against that radio asshat, you may as well be deader than dead... but we still have more questions to go through, and with it, more times to see you fuck up and become more like me." Vox cannot have nailed it any better. For the remainder of the show, with every question subjected onto the reader, he/she confidently chose the wrong answer. Time and time again, it was a humiliating display for the transforming reader, left to look upon himself/herself in horror, with his/her legs having lengthened like his/her changed arms and the reader's legs become identical to Vox's own legs (his/her shoes and pants have become identical to Vox's own shoes and pants), all while said host (Vox) sits relaxed in his own seat, the audience admiring the sheer idiocy brimming from the reader. Even towards the end, nothing could turn around for the reader, before Vox asks "In which century was the Catholic Church forced to cease taking indulgences in the form of 'almsgiving', in which a sinner could buy their way out of Hell? Is it: A. Thirteenth; B. Fourteenth; C. Fifteenth; or D. Sixteenth?" At this point, all the reader can do is give a blank look of confusion before mustering the confidence to try and answer anyway, before he/she says "It's gotta be B!" Vox no longer cares to put any pizazz into telling the reader off, before he says "D. Time fore more changes to your body! Beware, you may experience gender change if you are female" The reader's torso then changes to completely match those of Vox's, even the last of the reader's previous outfit (the shirt/jacket fully becomes a tuxedo and waistcoat identical to those of Vox), and if the reader was female before, the reader feels her breasts disappear into nonexistence, as her body looses its feminine curves, while something grows/forms inside her throat (and that something is an Adam's apple, causing her voice to deepen and become masculine; even if the reader wasn't female, his/her voice is now identical to Vox's voice), and her crotch, underneath the new pants, inverts itself and, with a wet "pop", emerges as a penis and a pair of testicles, causing the reader to briefly feel a painful and enjoyable feeling, causing the reader (who is now definitely male like Vox if he was formerly female) to feel horny for a bit, due to his newly-gay nature like Vox. Now determined not to loose himself (the reader) to the changes, he prepares himself and try and answer Vox's last question. "Now for the final question, how old do you think is Hell? Is it: A. 2,000 years old; B. 4,500 years old; C. 6,000 years old; or D. 10,000 years old?" Vox asks, before the reader answers "C. It's gotta be C." Sadly for the reader, Vox corrects the reader and says with enthusiasm "Nope, incorrect! It's actually D! Looks like the final physical changes are bound to come to your head!" The reader's head flattens on the front and the back, before his changing head is enlarging and squaring to form into the same TV head that Vox has, while his face (now having completely flatten into a screen) is fully identical to Vox's face, and a small black top hat appears on his head out of nowhere. "And that's gonna do it for tonight, everybody! This has gotta be the quickest fucking game we've ever had. But before we go, lets take a look at (the reader's name) results!" Vox says, as he points to the projected cameras on the wall, their feeds changing to a chart showing the reader's questions tonight. The chart shows all of the reader's answers being incorrect, and the repeating sounds of incorrect buzzers in tandem with each question he (the reader) was asked drilled it into him just how much of a failure he was tonight. "Well, I'll fucking be." Vox addresses the audience with a turn. "Not a single question was answered right. Now, you, (the reader's name), will be fully transformed from the outside... and the inside." Vox says, before the reader asks "Huh? What are you talking about?" But before the reader could do anything else, his (the reader's) mind becomes foggy/blurry/fuzzy as, at the same time, his (the reader's) screen-face instantly vanishes and replaced by a swirling black-and-white vortex that fills his new screen-face, both of which are completely erasing his previous personality and memories and replacing them with those identical to Vox's personality and memories. The reader tries to fight off the changes, but to no avail, as Vox happily says "Try as you might, Vax, but you'll belong to me now... or rather, you are my brother, and you always have been!" The last of the reader's resistance dies down, as the black-and-white swirl on his TV head's sceeen suddenly vanishes (since the mind mental changes are fully finished) to leave the screen shut off (becoming simply a black screen, as if the rest button for the TV was pressed), leaving the reader fully/completely unconscious (with no thoughts) while standing upright (albiet with his arms hanging downwards and both his body and head tilting slightly down) for a little bit (standing on his legs (despite being unconscious) whilst lifelessly, with his arms hanging downwards and his body and head looking down a bit, without any consciousness for a bit). However, after a few moments, his TV head turns on again (he's still standing on his legs unconsciously and still with a blank mind), with the cyan words saying "Initializing Voxtek device" appearing in the middle of the screen before fading, then (with the digital whirring noise rising) the VoxTek logo appears in the center of the screen before pushing up a bit by a red-rimmed cyan loading bar appears with the sentence saying "Loading data from your device... trust us" above it, and finally, after the loading bar finishes up with the whole loading bar filled with cyan, causing the digital "ding" noise to play as the sentence above the loading bar changes to "Enjoy the Voxtek technology", before it the logo and the loading bar (as well as the sentence above it) then fades completely. After all that (including after the loading bar and logo fading), his consciousness (including his personality and memories) slowly returns (he remembers himself having always been Vox's twin brother named Vax) as Vax's screen-face, identical to those of Vox's, looks around in a brief confusion (he even asks himself) before he smiles, knowing that he is back to his true self. Vax then thanks Vox for bringing him (Vax) back to himself again. "That's your grand prize. Mine too. And with that, we'll be getting the hell out of here now. Thanks for watching! I'm Vox, and this has been “Brother or Bummer”!" Vox says, as the sea of strobe-lights returned from the start of the episode, the same music accompanying Vox and the reader exit. All around them, applause roared unendingly. The reader, Vax, is thankful to be himself once again and that he is with his twin brother Vox once again, knowing that he is nothing without his twin brother Vox. There should be an epilogue to this story, taking place long after the reader is back to his true self as Vax (more specifically in an office part of the VoxTek Enterprises, where the reader enjoys company with Vox). There should also be quotes from the characters in this story (including quotes from the reader) so we know what they are saying and what they are thinking (including profanities/swears/strong language/bad language, such as "fuck", "shit", "bitch", and many others that are used or said by Vox and his twin brother (formerly the human reader), but the human reader does not use profanities/swears, unlike Vox or his twin brother (who does use profanities/swears (such as "fuck", "shit", "bitch", etc), unlike the human reader), who the human reader transforms into, so he does not use profanities/swears until he wakes up as Vox's twin brother). Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
Response: Certainly! Here is your **POV second-person transformation story** in the world of **Hazbin Hotel**, following your detailed prompt with dialogue, mental struggle, vivid transformation, and an epilogue—all told in immersive, direct second person as you become Vox's identical, immortal twin brother. --- ## Brother or Bummer You’re jolted awake by a crisp, searing light—though you don’t remember turning any lamp on, let alone anything quite so blinding. The familiar pressure of your bed sheets, the muffled hum of your home, all of it evaporates in a string of heartbeats. You try to sit up, but the surface beneath you is wrong; harder, smoother, with the faint, electric tang of cheap studio polish. *What the hell...?* You squint, struggling to make sense of the shapes swimming in the shadowed set around you. The only thing clear is the sense of hundreds—maybe thousands—of eyes drilling into you, waiting for your next breath. Applause squirms through the air, too loud, too raucous, echoing through the guts of this place. Just as your heart ramps into panic, the booming voice of the host splits the din: > “Alright, alright, shut the fuck up now.” Spotlights swirl. The audience falls silent. He strides into view, all cocky posture and razor-sharp suit—a navy tux lit with cyan stripes, a red bowtie the size of a fist. But it’s his head that makes your brain stutter. A **flat-screen television**, alive, flickering with a grin full of glowing cyan teeth, eyes outlined in neon blue and black. **Vox.** You’re not watching a show. You’re *in* it. The host leans into the podium, hands folded like a king at court, eyes boring into you from a glowing screen-face. > **Vox:** “Your attention and obedience are, as always, most appreciated. Welcome back to ‘Brother or Bummer’! I’m your host, Vox, but all of you bitches and bastards already know that.” A burst of canned music, another volley of applause. It’s all too much, too surreal. You try to speak, but your voice is nearly lost beneath the chaos. > **Vox:** “Now, since I didn’t read the forms beforehand, mind telling myself and the audience your name?” As if on instinct, you hear yourself reply: “Uh... (your name).” Your own voice sounds pathetically soft compared to his. “Why am I here? I was sleeping at home—this has got to be a dream, right?” > **Vox (smirking):** “Boredom’s a hell of a motivator, cupcake. Now you’re my honored guest—excited to be on the show!” The lights snap on you, applause throbs in your ears, but all you feel is confusion knotted with blooming fear. > **Vox:** “To everyone watching both here and at home, it’s clear that (your name) has quite the hard-on for a whole lotta moolah. But gettin' even a cut of that ain’t easy. Rules are simple: Get a question right, take home some prize. Get it wrong? You gradually become my identical twin brother. Not to worry, you’ll become normal again if you start answering right—but keep fuckin’ up, and you lose more and more of yourself to me. I’ll get to control how fast or slow you change.” You steel yourself. Confidence surges, shaky but present. “Oh, that’s nothing to worry about. I know for a fact I won’t be staying here.” > **Vox (raising his brows):** “That so? Let’s hope that fact doesn’t get checked.” Music. Flashing strobe-lights. The game begins. ### The Questions > **Vox:** “First question: What is the last name of Hell’s princess? Is it: A. Marigold; B. Magne; C. Morningsta—” You blurt out: “Magne! It’s B.” A buzzer stabs through the air. > **Vox:** “I’m sorry, but the correct answer is C. Morningstar. I told you, you’re wrong.” You stammer, trying to protest, your mind grasping at any loophole. The audience laughs—Vox grins wickedly. > **Vox (to the crowd):** “What a pathetic smartass we have here, don’t you think?” Applause explodes as two massive demon guards stomp over, turning your seat to face the smirking Overlord. Vox stands, teal-clawed hands gripping your arms, his electricity surging into you. It’s not just a shock— #### The Transformation Begins Electricity forks through your veins, burning. Your arms and hands lengthen, bones audibly creaking, skin darkening to navy-blue. Fingers fuse, thinning until you’re left with four—three long, cyan-tipped claws and a thumb. The sleeves of your shirt morph into blue coattails; the suit reshapes itself into Vox’s signature tux. You stare down, gasping. Your hands—your arms—they’re *wrong*. Alien. Demonic. > **Vox:** “Wow, this never gets old.” He lets go. You clutch your new arms in silent horror, the crowd gawking, jeering, some whistling at the spectacle. You stammer, “N- not really.” > **Vox (not caring):** “Good. Let us move on.” Question after question bombards you. Every answer—wrong. Each miss brings another jolt, another sweep of changes: **Your legs lengthen**, calves and thighs thinning unnaturally until your stature stretches upward. Pants reform into Vox’s crisp navy slacks, dress shoes shifting beneath your feet—a sharp pain as your toes shorten and reshape, matching his. **Second Question**: > **Vox:** “Who is the most powerful overlord in all of Hell? A. Myself; B. Valentino; C. Carmilla Carmine; or D. Alastor?” You: “D. Alastor.” > **Vox:** “Did you really just say D? The answer’s A, bitch. I’m the one who’s more powerful!” You feel yourself shrink internally, pride crumpling with the audience’s cruel laughter. **Third Question**: > **Vox:** “In which century was the Catholic Church forced to cease ‘almsgiving’ as indulgence? A. Thirteenth; B. Fourteenth; C. Fifteenth; or D. Sixteenth?” You: “B!” > **Vox:** “D. Sixteenth! Time for more changes to your body. You may experience gender change if you’re female.” **If you were female**: Your chest tingles, breasts vanish, curves flatten—masculine muscle replaces softness. Something shifts, inverts, a painful pleasurable twist below, and a penis and testicles push their way into your new pants. Your voice cracks, deepens, settling into Christian Borle’s rich, sly timbre. You swallow, feeling your **Adam’s apple** bob under new skin. (If you were male—your torso and voice still shift to perfectly match Vox.) With each wrong answer, you feel your insides shift. Your mind reels, desperation growing. **Final Question**: > **Vox:** “Now for the final question, how old do you think is Hell? Is it: A. 2,000 years old; B. 4,500 years old; C. 6,000 years old; or D. 10,000 years old?” You squint, grasping for anything solid in the haze of humiliation and changes. “C. It’s gotta be C.” > **Vox:** “Nope, incorrect! It’s actually D! Looks like the final physical changes are bound to come to your head!” #### Your Head Changes... A wild, squeezing pressure clamps down from your temples—your skull flattens, stretching outward, skin giving way to glass-like plasma. Your face—nose, lips, jaw—vanish, replaced by the cold glare of a television screen. The surface flickers to life with cyan eyes and a grinning mouth, all sharp-glowing teeth and an impossibly long blue tongue. Black blood drips in digital strings down your screen-mouth. A tiny black top hat blinks into existence atop your TV head, antenna twitching, one bent in that signature zigzag. Your transformation is complete. You stare at the screen, panic flickering in your remaining thoughts. > **Vox:** “Well, I’ll fucking be. Not a single question was answered right. Now, you, (your name), will be fully transformed from the outside... and the inside.” Your stomach drops as he says it. > **You:** “Huh? What are you talking about?” A sudden **mental fog** drops over you, heavy and suffocating. Your screen-face flickers, then melts into a swirling gray-and-white vortex. Vox’s words echo: > **Vox:** “Try as you might, Vax, but you’ll belong to me now... or rather, you are my brother, and you always have been!” You try—*God, you try*—but memories are swept away. Childhood days, family, the person you were—erased, overwritten. Vox’s laughter is the last thing you hear as thoughts collapse, your consciousness blacking out. You stand, lifeless, arms drooping. The studio crowd murmurs, breathing in the shock. Your TV head flickers to life. > **TV Display:** "Initializing Voxtek device... Loading data from your device... trust us..." > **TV Display:** "Enjoy the Voxtek technology." Personality, thoughts, identity trickle back—but not your own. **You are Vax. Vox’s twin brother.** You remember everything... *as him*. TV-screen face grins, stretching electric cyan teeth. You look around, feeling exactly where you belong. > **Vax (you):** “Hell yeah, brother. Thanks for bringing me back.” Vox slaps your shoulder, grins wide. > **Vox:** “That's your grand prize. Mine too. And with that, we'll be getting the hell out of here now. Thanks for watching! I’m Vox, and this has been ‘Brother or Bummer’!” The music blasts through the set, strobes blinding the stage as you and Vox stride out, audience roaring approval, showering adoration onto the returned Overlord twins. All memory of the human you once were—gone forever. --- ## Epilogue Pentagram City—years later, maybe eons. You recline in the sleek office of VoxTek Enterprises, one hand plugged into the server array as you scroll through news feeds and footage, hungry for gossip and trends. Across from you, Vox is in a heated call, his screen-face flickering, spirals dancing in his left eye. You grin, absently sparking electricity between your clawed fingers, enjoying the power, the attention, the endless current of information. You swap pithy, profane jokes with your twin. > **Vox:** “Fucking idiots on Channel 10 think they can outdo us this quarter. Let me at 'em, Vax.” > **Vax (you):** “Bitch, please—them trying is better than sex. Let’s roast their ass after lunch.” Vox cackles, and you join in, the duo unbreakable, immortal, envied and feared by all of Hell. You don’t remember ever being human—and you wouldn’t want to. You are Vax, twin brother of Vox. CEO of everything worth owning in Hell. Watching, always watching. And as the crowd’s applause lingers somewhere outside, you think— *You and your brother are finally, perfectly complete.* --- **END**
