The Amell Legacy: Transgressions

[Shisou]

Shiori looks down at her lap, blushing faintly, hands tightly clasped. "I-I... I.. it's... I've n-not, um... it's j-j-just..."

Carbonne climbs off the (too comfortable) pillow, moving to lay xir horned-lizard head in Shiori's lap. Shiori lifts a hand, places it on the lizard's back, her thumb stroking the lizard's head gently. 

"I j-just... f-feel more c-c-comfortable as a g-girl."

Most of the time the past few weeks, she's been dressing feminine -- but her body is masculine, under the skirt and lip rouge. After all, that's the body she was born with; she only transforms fully when she is the Midnight Princess. 

[Bethany]

Bethany moves to sit next to her, reaching around Shiori's back to hug her. "Then you are a girl. Well, young woman. And..." She bites her lip. "Have.. have you considered asking... Dau? About making it match? I mean, making your shell match?"

[Shisou]

"I h-h-have," she stammers. "B-but.. the c-cost..."

[Bethany]

"It doesn't hurt to at least ask," Beth points out gently. "Maybe you and Carver can pay it off together."

[Shisou]

Shiori bows her head, swallowing hard. "I just... I k-k-k-eep seeing m-my stepdad's f-face..."

[Bethany]

Beth winces. "I- yeah. I... I know how that can be. Even when you know they're wrong, it just... it can be hard to keep that in focus." She leans over to kiss her cheek. "But he is wrong. You're a woman. You should be allowed to fit in your own skin."

[Shisou]

"But that's j-j-j-just it. I d-don't f-f-feel uncomfortable as a... a... h-how I am. B-but... I f-f-feel better as a g-girl. I d-didn't a-always k-know, like C-carver. I j-just... it j-just... f-feels b-better. and I d-don't s-st-st-stutter."

[Bethany]

"So..." Beth shrugs. "If you feel better and feel more confident... then why not? It's not like... like there's a limited number of 'pussy haver' slots or something that you're taking up for someone else. But... ummm... and don't make this the reason why, please, but I promise you that I think you're even more attractive female. Just the extra confidence and... I don't know, 'at-ease-ness' you have when female is really nice."

[Shisou]

Shiori nods, taking a deep breath, trying to get some of that confidence back. "I-- I d-d-don't want to... if you're i-into C-carver or... if Z-zev wants to... I k-know you l-love b-both of them. And that's... I ju-just w-want to help."

[Bethany]

Bethany winces. "I do love them both. But... I want someone..." She sighs. "Carver and I wouldn't... even aside from how I don't really find him that attractive- please don't tell him that, I don't want him to think anything bad about his new body. I mean, I've mentioned he's not my type but... Sorry, sidetracked there. Even aside from that, it wouldn't be... healthy. And Zev..." She looks guilty for a moment. "I... I wouldn't mind if... He loves Isabela. Like... love-loves, forever loves. I'm not entirely sure what their story is but... I can be content, if a little sad, just being the one that kept him alive and whole until they reunited." She darts a glance at Shiori. "Which isn't to say I wouldn't mind- I mean, if you were ever, umm, curious about... th-threesomes or..." She blushes furiously. 

[Shisou]

Shori nods. "T-t-to t-tell the t-truth, I'm a v-virgin... I-- I'm n-not sure if... if I should... if I'm g-g-going to c-change, m-maybe I should t-try with my b-body h-how it is, b-before..."

[Bethany]

"My Shiori, how forward," Beth says with a giggle, not sounding at all against the idea. It's been almost three months now since I've gotten laid... "But... but if it feels... bad, you'd tell me, right? So we could stop? When Carver... he said he liked it, that he got... pleasure out of it but afterwards..." She bites her lip. "He hurt himself."

[Shisou]

Shiori nods. "I w-won't.. I w-w-won't l-let you h-hurt me, B-beth. I... I k-know what it would d-do to you."

[Bethany]

"Carbonne, mind going for a walk?" Beth asks softly, not looking away from Shiori. "Not sure we'll go all the way right now but... I wouldn't mind showing you just what a bard can do with her mouth." Need to warn her about my stupid pussy before we go too far. And get my lube out. Maybe anal might be better? If she's into that... someone people get weird over it, even though I can clean it magically.

[Shisou]

Carbonne sniffs, leaping down to the floor. "Mortals," xe says dismissively.
