I'm a fan of the SCP Foundation, and sometimes when I'm bored I'll go to ChatGPT and tell it "Please write an SCP entry for an anomalous \ that does ." If the resulting SCP entry is interesting I will "explore" it by asking "Write an exploration log in which an MTF team climbs down the giant toilet bowl" or "Write an interview log with the woman who turned into a snail." And so forth.

I got really into this for a few months after seeing a live action one. But they lost their appeal a little but Im not sure why.

What happened to snail lady? Is she okay now? Is she still a snail? I don't want to become a snail

She's actually doing well. I dug up what I saved from that particular run. She's a 1.5-meter-tall land snail named Alice Johnson, with a pink and lavender shell that has lacy patterns on it, a sharp retractable proboscis, and glands that secrete a bioluminescent substance with extreme healing properties. She got transformed into that when she tried converting a secluded, abandoned building in the woods into an art studio for herself, it turned out to have been used by a researcher doing illicit anomalous work and some goop had been left behind. She initially was pretty distraught by the transformation, she attempted suicide several times before the Foundation found her and only survived because of that bioluminescent healing substance rapidly fixing any injuries she inflicted. But she's received counselling and is doing much better now in Foundation custody. When she found out her secretions could heal others, not just herself, she actually started to see some positives in her transformation. The Foundation has also provided her with art supplies to continue her hobby and she's taken to using her own shell as a canvas to express herself.

This is fascinating. How does she paint her art? Healing folks with my own secretions is for the birds. I still wouldn't want to become a giant snail
