Momoko and Jaime's place, Sunday evening, New Earth

[heromaniac]

Momoko finished washing the last of the dishes with a sigh. She didn't want to be done! Not because she enjoyed it but because Jaime was out of his room! After dinner, he'd agreed to dry the dishes if she washed but Momoko was running out of ideas to keep him from just crawling back to his room and hiding until he was a boy again

Comments

Oh yes, somebody was definitely sending a text today.

Help, help, I'm gorgeous.

Jono didn't get to say things like this often. He wanted To Talk About It, blast it.

[heromaniac]

Momoko giggled at the text.

You're always gorgeous, silly!

[furnaceface]

You know, I'm always so absorbed in eating things and singing, it's hard to remember who's seen me and who hasn't.

Jono sent a photo of him blowing a kiss at the camera. Because if he had the lips, dammit, he was going to use them.

I'd say this is next-level gorgeousness, at any rate. If I can be forgiven a touch of bragging.

[heromaniac]

Momoko's jaw dropped, all right.

And then she began tapping her phone furiously.

Not fair not fair not fair! Wwho did your make-up?!? that is a GReAT haircut for you OMG I BET YOUR VOICE IS AMAZING! You have to record something for me! Promise! OH WOW! I AM SO JELUS!!!!!!!!

Spelling and grammar? Totally for people with ugly friends, okay?

[furnaceface]

I did my own- there were make-up kits at the Boards, and I know my way around the stuff, believe it or not.

He'd gone to boarding schools with too many girls to be able to get away with not learning a thing or two.

You know, I could just phone you, if you want to hear me sing that badly.

[heromaniac]

But I want to hear it and have it foreeeeeeeeeveeeerrrrrrrrr!!!

Oh. That reminded her...

Also, when you get your regular voice back some Weirdness, too. I accidentally went to an alternate world a few weeks ago and picked up some albums of an alternate!Leda in a BAND.

...with someone they'd killed in this world, but she wasn't going to add that.

I may start a collection of music my friends make! And you are totally doing my make-up next time I am there for a dance. Did you buy a girl wardrobe yet? I saw a dress that would be PERFECT for you if you're not too tall.

She sent that, then scrolled through her phone and sent the photo she'd taken of the dress in a thrift shop window.

[furnaceface]

Hannibal took me shopping the last time this happened. But I would probably wear that dress, yes.

When he was a woman, anyway. No other time.

And fine, I'll record something before this wears off, then. Have you got any requests?

[heromaniac]

You went shopping with another GUY?

Momoko frowned at that. She liked Doctor Lecter but in her experience, men choosing womens clothes... She glanced over at Jaime.He was huddled into the couch wearing an old sweatshirt and baggy PJ bottoms. Despite all his pretty dresses and skirts (and even a suit!!!) he'd chosen... that. And they didn't even MATCH!

She sent a facepalm emoji. You poor thing, Jono!!!!!!!! I am totally buying you the dress and will round up other donations.

I don't have any requests, no. I'll like anything you sing! Well, except that song some of your troops were singing in the tavern in that one city. I don't think I could listen to that without blushing. Even now.

[furnaceface]

Hey now, Hannibal is a man of excellent taste! Or, rather, expensive taste. I sometimes still question his fashion sense from time to time.

There was this furry hat with ear flaps that he tended to wear when the weather turned cold...

I don't need too many donations anyway. This is generally only a two-day thing and most of my clothes either fit, or I can fake it with them.

And I promise I won't sing any songs about lovely ladies losing their knickers for brave soldiers, or vice-versa. Just for you, luv.

[heromaniac]

Momoko sighed again.

You know I like Doctor Lecter, but I totally don't trust you guys about important stuff like this. I bet you only have two pairs of girl shoes, right?

And then a thought occurred to her...

And flipflops are not shoes

[furnaceface]

I only spend two days at a time as a girl, I don't need that many pairs of girl shoes. But they're heels. I learned how to wear heels.

So that he could dance in them, no less.

For the sake of two days at a time, I'd say that's an accomplishment. I did my own make-up, you don't think I can dress myself, luv?

[heromaniac]

Yay for heels! But you can't wear heels if something attacks while you're a girl! And no I don't trust you. I have seen your clothes. What if one time it doesn't last just two days? I was a boy for two weeks once! I had to shave!!!!!!!!

[furnaceface]

Well, the contents of the fridge would probably be slightly less traumatizing if he had...

I... I do have a nice dress, I don't even have business clothing while I'm in my OWN usual shape, and I'm not much of a swimmer. Ever. What the hell's a caftan?

[heromaniac]

[furnaceface]

What? What's that for??

[heromaniac]

HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW WHAT A CAFTAN IS???

See, this is why she didn't trust you, Jono. This and the fact you believe leather is a colour.

a caftan is a loose dress-like shirt that you wear over your swimsuit. And you don't always go to the beach to swim. If you have a full body, you totally should show it off!

Well, Momoko actually thought he would do okay showing off all the time, but she didn't want to promote destroying the island.
