Fifth Floor Common Room, Sunday evening

[willbethenight]

After getting back from Colorado, Bruce got some dinner from Ching Tai. Unfortunately, they gave way too much food, so he set up in the common room. If people were hungry, they could take. He could have done that and gone to his room with his food, but he figured that would prevent him from seeing how other people were reacting to the gender switch

Karla had planned to grumpily lock herself in her room all night and brood until the stupid thing wore off. That plan had been discarded as soon as she realized that she didn't have any food in her room. So she set off, hoping to find something edible after a week in Colorado, or, lacking that, people to commiserate with.

Upon finding some of both, Karla discovered that her usual greeting seemed really odd coming from a male. "Kiss ki--oh bloody Hell,"

[willbethenight]

"Karla?" Bruce guessed. It was a distinctive 75 percent of a greeting. "Not enjoying the experience so far?"

[glacial_witch]

"That's me," Karla replied with a sigh. "Kat--?" Wait, no, wrong psychic scent again. She was going to have to stop doing that. "Who?"

[willbethenight]

"Bruce Wayne," Bruce said. "It's probably best to lead off with 'Who' until this is over."

Calvin had largely gotten over this morning's freak-out.

Partly.

Somewhat.

In any case, Hobbes was far too amused by the situation for Calvin to stay in his room until his breasts went away again and so he ventured into the common room.

"There's plenty of comfort food if you need it," Bruce said as a way of welcoming the new person in.

[not_tylerdurden]

"Thanks," Calvin said, before reaching for a container of noodles.

Because he needed comforting very badly.

"I'm assuming you're usually a guy?" Bruce asked. "I'm Bruce. Also usually a guy."

A boy with bangs of emo and wearing a skirt peeked into the common room to see how other people were handling the change. This had happened before and she knew the next day she would be herself again, but that didn't stop Raven from being self-conscious about how she looked now. It just felt so unnatural.

[willbethenight]

"Raven?" Bruce guessed based on the look. Some of these were easier than others. "Come in. There's plenty of food."

The chakra in her -- his -- forehead was a dead giveaway. "Yes, thank you," she said, trying to puzzle out who he was. She wasn't attuned to Bruce like some other people. "I am sorry, I am not entirely certain who you are."

[willbethenight]

"Bruce Wayne," Bruce said. "And don't worry about it. Everyone seems to be at least a little confused today. Anyone who isn't has to be cheating."

Despite the distraction of his earlier experiments (not dirty. Please, he's from the Victorian era), William was still feeling at odds with Fandom's latest bout of oddness. Oddness or not, he still had an appetite, and was thankful to find that someone else had provided food.

...Of a sort.

"What is this?" he inquired, examining the cartons curiously. He'd never really had a chance to visit Montreal's Chinatown district, much less sample the cusine.

[willbethenight]

"Chinese food," Bruce said. "From Ching Tai in town. They gave enough for everyone, so take all you want."

[faithandscience]

"Chinese food," William echoed. "Well, all right. It's most appreciated- I'm afraid in all the... excitement... I ended up neglecting the matter of meals."

[willbethenight]

"Then you've come to the right place," Bruce said. "I'm sorry, but I can't quite tell who you are yet. I'm Bruce."

So, somehow, in the process of becoming male, Claudia had only managed to grow, like, an inch, retaining her scrawniness.

But, hey, that just meant her clothes still mostly fit.

She'd gotten nicely past the point of "HOLY CRAP I'M A BOY WITHOUT BEING A DIFFERENT PERSON" bit, and was now on the "this is entertaining and probably temporary" side and looking around for people to ogle.

"Ooo, food!"

[willbethenight]

"There's plenty of it to go around," Bruce said. There was no way he'd be able to guess this was Claudia. His cheat of checking the hair to narrow it down was invalid. "Take all you want."

[notmyownage]

Fun with dying her hair in her natural state.

"Awesome." Claudia paused and tilted her head. "I'm guessing you're not always a girl?"

[willbethenight]

"This is my first time, actually," Bruce said. "Bruce Wayne. Should I assume you are usually a girl?"
