Lexi plucks Persica from her chain, and Persica changes. She's a long pearlescent coruscation of warm colors ranging from pastel orange through yellow and rose, capped in a small peach-colored gem at one end, and at the other end sporting a larger gem with a peachlike cleft impressed in it, which is surrounded by golden, sleekly mechanical leaf-shaped protrusions.

"Device Mode," Persica announces. Smugly.
