 [There is a distinctly feminine shriek, then a long silence. Then a lot of rustling of clothing as Ned pats himself down.]

Can - er. I seem... to be having a very slight problem. With. Um. Is anyone else feeling d-different?

Comments

[deathmerciful]

Some have been spared.

Some are affected.

It seems you are in the latter group. My condolences.

[easy_aspie]

... Thanks.

Wait, why do you get off without getting - well. Y'know.

[Girly-Ned glances, without thinking, down at his chest, then blushes furiously and averts his eyes]

[madrassa]

It's Inara, Ned.

I trust you've discovered the side effects of this flood? Do you need anything? Clothes? I could do with a trade, honestly.

[easy_aspie]

You - oh. You too, huh?

Yes, actually. I do need clothes. I'm tiny. And everything looks different from here, and my hands are so small, I -

Clothes. Yes. We should trade.

I missssssssss you! You wanna assume clothes? Or spam? Or log!

[madrassa]

Floor one, room nineteen. I'm not the tiniest of women, but most of my clothing wraps adequately enough to adjust. It's quite comfortable, I assure you.

I MISS YOU TOO. WHERE ARE YOUUUUU? D: Also SPAM!

[easy_aspie]

Okay. I'll bring some of my things.

[Fifteen minutes later, there's a knock on Inara's door. It's Ned, wearing a button-down shirt as a dress, barefoot. In his arms is a neatly-folded pile of clothing] Inara?

[young_idealist]

It's better when you're calmer. I think.

[easy_aspie]

I'm just... finding it hard to stay calm. When I'm missing things. And have other things that the good Lord never intended for me to have.

Are you... ?

[young_idealist]

Tis Armand. We met the night, remember?

[easy_aspie]

No, I meant - your gender. I remember you, of course.

[Voice] (I wish Diana had more than like.. two facial expressions ever)

[a_bit_put_upon]

You'll be all right. From what I've gathered, this is a temporary effect. I've been experimenting with myself and taking notes for when Peri decides to rampage againfuture reference. Some are distraught, of course- when I first noticed myself, I was quite startled. Many others, it seems, have taken a more carnal route of exploration, while still more seem unperturbed by the development.

You're still able to bake, though, correct? Perhaps doing so may calm you and clear your head.

BEST PB IS BEST

[easy_aspie]

There is not enough pie in the world to solve this problem.

I am missing things Doctor. Important things. Things I rather liked. Things that I hope to see again as soon as humanly possible.

AND NED IS SO CUTE ;___; I want to cuddle him and shush him and give him comfort petits fours. ♥

[a_bit_put_upon]

Tut tut, my dear. We're all missing things, I'm certain you've got the presence of mind to remember. Simply weather it for now, and perhaps look for qualities of it to enjoy for the moment; the entire veteran populace of the ship can't be wrong in saying it will pass.

Would you like to come to the gymnasium with me in a bit to practise some yoga? It's very liberating, I find.

IDK about Ned, but I would LOVE some petit fours OM NOM NOM

[easy_aspie]

[dissatisfied, but willing to concede] I suppose you're right.

Uh - I'll pass, thanks. Do enjoy your newfound flexibility.

[notarrowette]

I would have to say yes. Very, very different. This is just so not cool.

...Oh, right, this is Cissie. If you can believe it.

[easy_aspie]

I agree. I was pretty happy with my original body.

Er - well. You're sure... beefy. As a man.
