[Transforming into another person is a grotesque thing. Haru tries not to think about it overmuch as she knocks back the potion - this isn't like the Metaverse, where their clothing transformed in the blink of an eye. But it's just as necessary.
Transforming into Evras won't give her the power of a Phantom Thief - but it will grant her the opportunity to walk into the Institute and make her way to places she wouldn't otherwise be able to access. So like it or not, she has to put up with it.
The grimace on her face isn't just because of the taste of the potion. Physical transformations - they're not easy. He's taller than her, and so as her frame lengthens to account for the different in height, Haru learns firsthand what it means to have growing pains. Her bones are sore and achey, her muscles feel almost uncomfortably stretched - but the bloom of pain lessens to a dull ache as her insides rearrange themselves to match.
Her facial features - those are next. She sucks in a breath as those shift and change. His nose is different from hers. It cracks and re-sets itself, and she clenches her eyes shut against the pain. Her skin becomes more weathered; her hair, already short to begin with, becomes shorter still, disappearing back into her skull.
Once it's over, it is Evras who stands in front of them, not Haru Okumura. She slowly opens her eyes and takes a breath, looking out at the other two.]
