DOUZE + [Action/Video]

[Action] - Locked to Infinite + Gai

[The morning of April 9th brings excitement to House 36. Elizabeth wakes up, feeling maybe a little heavier than she usually does, but after a quick mental assessment brushes it off as nothing more than a desire to stay warm in bed, next to Gai.]

[She pulls brown hair out of her face to check the clock. Well, 8:36AM, it's probably time to get up and make some coffee for the house. A good minute is spent debating rolling over onto Gai and going back to sleep (interspersed with wondering how she got so twisted up in her nightgown--it feels like it's choking her now).]

[In the end, chores win out, but Elizabeth isn't going to completely deny herself. She stretches up and nuzzles up under Gai's jaw and kisses him there.]


Good morn--

[That was significantly lower than her voice usually is.]



[After that bit of fun, Elizabeth comes stumbling awkwardly out of her room--there's a man in Elizabeth's nightgown standing in the hallway and looking horrified.]


Roberrrrt!!

[Booker must never know. Which is clearly why she's screaming for Robert in the middle of the hall. But what could she do? The last thing she needed was Rosalind's thoughts on how to be a man, Booker would probably take one look at her and start drinking.]



[Video]

[The feed starts up, and at least Elizabeth is no longer in a nightgown, but she looks just as panicked.]

No, this isn't a mistake in your journal, it's really me-- [She brings her thimble-covered pinky into the frame and rotates it.] --Elizabeth! But I'm-- I'm a man now!

[Blunt and to the point. She's too freaked out to dance around the problem and break it delicately though.] What do I do?! I don't know how to be a man, I've spent twenty one years being a woman!

[And the best way to learn how to function as a male is to ask the network. Good job, Elizabeth.]

[You do realize we'll need the Mulan soundtrack for this.

Don't worry Elizabeth, he'll make a man out of you!]


Well... uh... it's not too hard. Unless you mean being manly. But being a man isn't hard.

[THANK GOD SOMEONE'S GOING TO.]

Wait, but what's the difference? ['Manly', 'masculine', 'being a man'... they're all interchangeable, right?]
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | huh (glance back))

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2014-04-10 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Being manly is basically your behaviour. So's being masculine... all in how you act. Don't worry about that.

Being biologically male isn't really different from being biologically female. We have pretty much all the same needs. A few different parts. That's all.

Well I can't go running around in a skirt, Booker looked like he was going to faint when he saw me in my nightgown...

But it's those 'different parts' I'm concerned about. I feel like I'm in a stranger's house and I can't get out because I don't know where anything is.

Really?

[Do you know how many okama are in One Piece, Elizabeth? Men running around in nightgowns is hardly shocking.]

Okay, I'll throw a filter over this. [One completely unhackable filter coming up.] Ask me whatever you need to. I'll give you an answer.

How long do you think I'm going to be like this?

[She swallows and looks like she's going to start crying any minute now. It's been a long couple of hours.] Gai doesn't seem upset, but I feel like... like he shouldn't touch me. Because this isn't my body.

A few days. Maybe a week. That's the normal course of experiments.

Well... that's because Gai loves you for you. He doesn't care about what form you take, because you are still Elizabeth, male or female. [He's trying to be comforting here.] And that's normal, feeling that. You've gone through a big change. Nothing should feel right.

A week? [She's going to have to get used to being a man, and quickly. Staying indoors for a week is looking like a great idea though. No need to fumble around like a large child, looking awkward in front of the whole village.]

[She sighs heavily and drops her face into her hands.]
Well when you put it that way, it seems much nicer than the alternative. He seemed a little interested in the fact that I'm a man right now.

...maybe he's bored of me as a woman.

Unfortunately.

No way in hell. [Dead certain of that.] You just make as sexy a man as you do a woman. You're noticing him him noticing that is the fact.

[Ohgodno Law, that is not a word Elizabeth thinks should be applied to her. She blushes and stutters for a moment.]

Well I don't know, it seems like I know of more happy couples that are a man with another man. Jack and Eugene, you and Itachi... Gai kissed Shu once, and they seemed to have a very good time with it. Until the shift ended at least.

[She ponders this though, sneaks a look at herself reflected in the living room window, and tilts her head curiously.] Well... Gai is attracted to me, and I guess I don't look too different than I usually do...

[Just... manlier.]

That's more a thing where you've found the right person to be with, though. Not a male/male couple necessarily leads to more happiness thing.

No you don't. I can tell you're you.

[Just... manlier.]

Seems that way here. [There's an eyeroll in her tone, but she does know that Law has a point. It's just that she hasn't really seen a heterosexual relationship in action that didn't end in abuse and/or death. Aside from her own, of course.]

Okay, okay. If I'm going to be like this for a week I need to ask you everything I can't ask Gai. [Out of embarrassment, obviously.] If you get a... erm, erection, and you don't want it, what do you do about it?

[This morning had been embarrassing.]

There's a few ways, depending on your situation and how far it's along. If you can, get away and walk it off. Any sort of exercise that gets the blood flowing through your body.

[And away from your groin.]

If you can't, try to excuse yourself for a cold shower. Failing that, try a cold can of pop, or bag of peas, or something of the like on your lap.

... there's... erm a point when it's much more difficult to get rid of an erection though. If you do get aroused to that point somehow - it's just better to take the problem in hand and deal with it in private. The alternative can be painful.
