Tamsin slid out of bed and padded through the room. Something felt off. She wasn't sure what ( Read more... )

It was a few hours later when Didi came back with lunch and tapped on her roommate's door.

"Are you going to at least come out to eat?" she asked plaintively, sounding not at all bothered by her own new physical shape. (Which, to be fair, she wasn't.)

"I had leftovers," Tamsin called.

She wasn't freaking out; she just had a strong policy on Fandom's shit. "I was thinking about coming out for dinner."

"Sure, we could get sushi," Didi returned, as if she made dinner plans with doors all the time. "C'mon out. It's too nice a day to stay inside."

"It's never too nice a day to stay inside," Tamsin sighed, but she opened the door obligingly. "There. Happy, Shiny People?"

"Ecstatic," Didi said dryly. "Oh, that's not so bad. You look fine."

Let's pretend I used the right icon up there, shall we?

"It's still incredibly stupid," Tamsin said, crossing her arms. "How is anyone supposed to fight like this?"

living_endless April 2 2016, 20:26:33 UTC

"Why would you have to fight?" Didi asked, flexing her arms self-consciously. "... anyhow, you're bigger now. You could just sit on people."

Death was many things, but she was not a battlemaster.

Tamsin gave her a blank stare.

Followed by a, "Yeah, we're lucky nothing has ever invaded on these weekends."

living_endless April 2 2016, 20:54:24 UTC

Didi stared black, just as blankly.

Then: "Probably. One crisis at a time is enough."

"Ugggh," Tamsin said, stomping out of her room. "I'm declaring these weekends a bank holiday." Beat. "I think I can do that."

"Kind of a waste of being mayor if you can't," Didi offered. "I mean, you only have so many excuses to use your power, right? May as well enjoy them. Just don't let all the restaurants close or you'll have a riot on your hands."

Fandom could accept a lot, but only if there was food.

"Sure," Tamsin said, "But on these weekends, we're putting in a ban on using pronouns in businesses entirely. That's just asking for a headache otherwise."

living_endless April 2 2016, 21:43:12 UTC

"Ban things like 'young lady' and 'sir' too," Didi added. "The guy at the sandwich place called me 'sir' and I got very confused."

fjordicswagger April 2 2016, 21:45:15 UTC

"They," Tamsin said firmly. "We're an all-they island on gender changing weekends. Anything else, you get a fine."

"Maybe Comrade if somebody doesn't know your name," Didi suggested. "Or hon. It's hard to be upset if somebody's calling you hon."

fjordicswagger April 3 2016, 03:50:11 UTC

"Could be condescending, though," Tamsin pointed out. "Let's go with Comrade. I always like to think I'm making Joe McCarthy cry."

Look, that was like five minutes ago for her. And for Death.
