[Lurking around the school, you'll find a giant white blob. Wait, it isn't a giant blob, it's Thad! In a... dress? He seems fixated at looking for someone than his current appearance.

What on Earth was the boy thinking? Or better yet, will you approach him?]

Well, now. Claus didn't know Thad, really, but he had seen him around. This girl looked an awful lot like that Pikmin kid, but he figured it was probably his twin sister coming to visit or something. He didn't know how Pikmin worked.

"Are you lost?"

[snowypoison]

Well, to be honest, no one in the Pikmin siblings would actually look anything like Thad. Except, maybe, Viance. But, that wasn't exactly relevant at the moment.

Thad turned his direction to the source of the voice and shook in reply. "No, just looking for someone" He didn't bother to disguise his voice, because it wasn't going to 'crack' anytime sooner.

Oh my god is that a ghost??? Wait, ghosts didn't look all white, as far as she knew... Oh wait, it was that white person she talked to when she was sitting around outside that one Sunday! Spinarak wasn't really knowledgeable in the fashion differences between genders, so she didn't see anything weird with Thad in a dress. Since he seemed like a nice person to talk to, Spinarak decided to say hi, at least.

So she went up to him and gave a small wave.

"Hi."

[snowypoison]

Oh. It was that girl again. Thad seriously wanted to look for that person, but maybe it could wait for awhile. After all, she seemed okay, so he might as well greet her too.

"Hi to you too"

[green_arachnid]

Spinarak tilted her head, gazing at Thad. He seemed very different from last time she met him, but did she want to ask about it? Why not?

"Different."

Wait, that's a fragment. Let's try it again.

"...You look... different." She said again, slower this time. There we go!

[snowypoison]

He doesn't know what to say about all of this actually. The thought about being a dress in public seemed a bit surreal to him. But there he was now, in public wearing a female's attire.

"T-thanks...?"

[bulbmin_glutton]

Hojita was going around campus, gleefully skipping about and dragging mud into the place with her shoes. She'd been outside previously, how typical.

She noticed Thad pretty quickly, and, well, she was confused at first. That person had the colors that reminded her of Thad, and yet 'she' seemed to pretty obviously be a girl.

Unless this meant... Oh god.

"Viancaaaaaaa!!" Have a Hoji running to you, Thad.

[snowypoison]

Thad yelped in surprised. Hoji? Where did she came from? He needed to find a hiding place quickly! He can't afford for his family to find out. Sadly, there wasn't anywhere around, he had to face Hoji looking like this.

"It's me, Hoji" He said shyly. This was all to embarrassing!

[bulbmin_glutton]

"... Brother?!" Hojita exclaimed in shock, approaching him with confusion plaguing her features. This was definitely Thaddeus, judging from his voice alone.

Of course, she gave him the only logical explanation she could think of.

"You're a sister now!!"

[snowypoison]

"No, I'm still a brother" He explained. Well a dress couldn't change him into a sister, could it? No, it couldn't. At least, Thad hoped it didn't. His life's already awkward as it already.

[leadthemalong]

Olimar recognized Vianca, and knew right away that the pale Pikmin-child wasn't her. In fact, it looked a bit like Thaddeus. Shaking his head, "Leader" approached him.

"Thaddeus, is that you?"

[snowypoison]

First Hojita, and now Leader. His luck is getting worst by the minute. His instincts told him to just run up to greet him, but he ignore those said instincts and decided to just retreat wherever he can.

[leadthemalong]

"Thaddeus?" Olimar curiously followed him as far as he could, unsure why the boy was running. Maybe Thaddeus didn't want him to see that he was wearing... a dress. "...Hello?"

[snowypoison]

He wasn't going to stop any second. Being a white Pikmin, he was quite fast which was really lucky for him right now. He doesn't want to talk about this to Olimar, poor leader probably had enough of his whining. He's going to solve this himself!

Until he trip and fell on the floor. Ouch.

[umbreon_blacky]

Blacky wasn't going to approach just yet. She was just going to pretend to be interested in some inane note on the bulletin board, when really she was watching the strange girl out of the corner of her eye. Why did she remind her of Christmas?

There was something decidedly familiar about her scent too, but maybe that was just the general smell of the school. Laced with the acrid sting of something poisonous. Hm.

[snowypoison]

Thad felt a shiver in his spine, like someone was watching him. Maybe if he ignores that feeling, it'll go away. Worth the try, right?

He quietly passes the halls and avoided any eye contact as possible. Or tries to, at least.

[umbreon_blacky]

Sorry, Thad. Blacky was still watching. This poor little new girl must have been lost! And who better to be a tour guide than Blacky? Answer: ANYONE.

"Ah... pardon me. You're a new student, aren't you?"

[snowypoison]

It didn't work!? It usually does! Well, then again, 'usual' was those times when Thad didn't felt awkward or strange. This was not definitely 'usual'.

"Um... No.. Just visiting" He stuttered. Just go away, he needed to end this quickly.
