What kind of day has it been.

Was it the lunar eclipse that just drove everyone crazy this month? For starters, I had to take a detour in to class this morning because that mutant shelter that opened up a few months ago? Wacko protestors decided that they were going to block the entire street with their "peaceful assembly" that suddenly became an obstruction of travel and commerce. Was anyone cited? I expect not. But I guarantee you if there'd been a group of pro-mutant folks protesting outside one of those businesses with a Friends Of Humanity sticker in the window, the cops would be coming in with jackboots and batons, swinging first and checking permits later.

Oh, and if you see a big black dog in the hall, it's Jennie. No, I'm not kidding.

The morphogenetic field is a psychobiological theoretical construct wherein a cell has the ability to contain metadata about the entirety of an organism. Often referred to as "holographic anatomy", it's an as-yet unproven area of research. Very popular area of argument in mutant biology, especially when dealing with shapeshifters and folks like Mondo, Jan, or Catseye.

In effect... well, yeah. Jennie's been turned into a dog. Trying to undo it would require a re-establishment of the original morphogenetic field pattern, which isn't something modern medical science can replicate mechanically - it'd be like trying to have a backup of someone's thought patterns to restore their brain after a stroke. Theoretically, whatever caused this should be able to undo it.

Headache. Toldja.

So we have to go find whoever it was to turn Jennie back into a Jennie?

Don't look at me, I'm not the biologist. And it's gotten her to finally shut up about the whole "Lookie, I'm an X-Man now!" thing.

Oh, now you've jinxed it.
