This is a collaboration between myself and Dave Potter, revolving around a Neo-Victorian culture that expects its women to trammel themselves as a status symbol. In this world, certain men expect even more, they appreciate surgical transformation, where the question of consent is not even asked. Not for the faint of heart.

Our story is set in the same Alternative Britain as Dave’s The Tale of Anastasia, Doll Wife, and Alison Becomes a Lady of Leisure. However, whilst they are all set in the latter half of the 20th century, this takes place in the middle of the 21st. Therefore, technology has advanced and with it the possibilities to modify and control wives and companions, and this story aims to reflect this in the full.

In this tale a young woman is tricked by her family and her suitor, to become a docile wife when she wants nothing more than to receive a higher education, a rarity for women in this culture. Watch as she descends step-by-step farther into this ruse, before things get truly interesting.
