Never trust a shapeshifter. One moment they could take the form of your best friend, learning all of your deepest, darkest secrets, and the next they could be a guido-fied, braggadocios replication of The Situation, dishing your dirt for the world to hear.

In case you start falling for it, we’d like to refer you back to the first sentence for a quick reread.
