#39 - Plus without the minus

[inthecenterfold]

Okay, I get it. The sphere gets its jollies off by watching a bunch of guys flail around because we've got new parts to deal with. So why the hell didn't it go all the way with mine? This is part of the punishment isn't it?

... Sorry for whatever you saw, bro. Hope the scarring's not permanent.

I'm uh... gonna try to see if I can go to work today... if any of my clothes fit... how the fuck do you even walk like this...

[[OOC: Smoke has been changed into his canonmate The Merciful Goddess / Kanzeon Bosatsu - who in the original manga version is a hermaphrodite. At least he doesn't know what a goddess' powers are? All replies will come from holy_androgyny]]

What happened? You sound like something is, well, a little off. Even for the Sphere.

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Yeah I... don't know if this has happened to anybody before. I mean I guess if it did, chances are nobody would want to talk about it. I'm just pissed off right now and had to vent.

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

That's understandable, I think. Everyone seems out of sorts this morning--and I suppose I mean it literally! What is it about us not staying in our own bodies this month?

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Not being in our own bodies happens sometimes, but yeah this is like a pandemic now.

2/2

... And I just keep being amused by all of it, what the fuck, how sick is that?

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

Sometimes laughter really is the best defense, I think. And in some cases it is funny.

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

I bet Moon and Lin a few other people would just die laughing if they saw me like this.

struck out after a count of twenty

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

Well, I wouldn't. You were planning on going to work, though, right?

So, um, did you need assistance? Not that I want to intrude in any way, I just thought.

Re: struck out after a count of twenty

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Do you... think you'll need her help?

same; ahaha confusion

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

Whose help? Asuka's?

Re: same; ahaha confusion

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

If that's the first person who replied to me then yes.

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's her. I think I can manage.

[Deep breath for composure; you can do this, Kagerou.]

All right I took up martial arts and running while you were gone and I'm rather sure I know how to solve your problem. They need to stay in place and there's a way to do that comfortably. Okay?

Re: same

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

I believe you, but I have no freaking clue how to do this on my own. Plus if I go out I'll be giving everyone a free show.

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

All right, I'm coming over

Where are you now, actually? I don't think I have your new address yet.

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Temp Housing still, until Special-kun settles into his job. I'll stick a sign out that says "Kagerou's help required here --->"

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad you still sound like the Smoke I know.

[More facepalming, with strains of helpless laughter in between. She's torn between utter commiserating embarrassment and a genuine desire to help. The latter will win out in a bit.]

[holy-androgyny.livejournal.com]

Glad that part of me didn't change. ♥

[[QL, Log, Handwave?]]

[weaver-girl.livejournal.com]

I'll just find some [tiny pause] supplies and follow the signs, then.

[And handwave this time, as agreed. ♥]
