[At House 12]

[The people in House 12 are going to find a bizarre surprise this morning in their dining room area. They're going to find a woman, in new feather garbs, fast asleep on top of their dining room table. She seems rather content sleeping on that hard wooden table, or perhaps she hasn't realized where the Malnosso had decided to dump her.]


[Action]

[So! After that awkward encounter with his enemies, Alexei has managed to get himself/herself over to the plaza area, because....well he needed proper clothes. Walking proved to be...an experience in itself, but he made it to the clothing store in the end. The problem here was that he had absolutely no idea what he was suppose to be looking for. To be frank, it was...just awkward thinking about looking for clothes suitable for a woman in the first place.]

[ooc: Alexei has been genderbended for about 2 weeks. Comments will made with onlyashell]

Comments

[onlyashell]

[They're so rude. Alexei looks to Estelle's hand for a moment before accepting her assistance. She then moves off of the table.]

Thank you. [She probably shouldn't linger here too long...though there were a few things she liked answers to. She just had be careful how she worded it.] How long was I out? What day is it?

[Men are Useless]

[childofthefullmoon]

[Estelle gives the lady a warm smile after she helps her down from the table. Folding her hands in front of her, she shakes her head at the first question.]

I don't know. We just found you here. Today is the 9th of August.

[Funny that she would be asking that. Was she not new?]

What's your name?

[ w/e w/e ]

[trueknight]

[... "What day is it", hm? Maybe she's not a new feather, after all - unless this person is used to waking up on people's tables, or something.

So, he'll make a guess based off of that.]

You're not new here, are you?

[Alexei is a man.]

[crisisrain]

[Raven interrupts for a moment using logic.]

She can't be a new feather, it's wrong month for it. So considerin' that experiment is over, she must have just been brought back from one of them kidnappings.

[Too many guys in here]

[onlyashell]

August 9th...? [That's already almost three weeks he's been gone now. Estelle's next question gives him pause.]

I'm...[Actually let's just skip that and go to Yuri's question.] No, I'm not. The both of you are right on that.

[Alexei -was- a man]

[childofthefullmoon]

[Estelle listens and blinks at Raven's point. She tilts her head slightly, looking puzzled.]

Huh?

[What does this mean?]

[then he became a pancake]

[trueknight]

Then there's no point in bothering to tell you where you are.

[... Really, something about this woman's appearance was starting to really bother him. It was starting to remind him of someone he really didn't want to deal with any time soon.]

... You skipped your name there, by the way.

[And he was never heard from again]

[crisisrain]

[Raven already has his own suspicions about this before he speaks again.]

You guys have gotta learn some manners! Poor lass wakes up in some stranger's kitchen and all ya do is fire questions at her like she's done somethin' wrong! How rude does that make us look?

[Then he turns to address lexy.]

So, ya heard 'em, right? How about ya tell us yer name there, hun?

[Wow rude you guys]

[onlyashell]

[At first Alexei thought of possibly creating a false name, but somehow he has a feeling any one of them would try to confirm it by just checking their journals for the same name later on. They seem a little suspicious of her already...at least Yuri and Raven did.

A sigh.]

Alexei.

[Mind = Blown]

[childofthefullmoon]

[Estelle blinks and tilts her head again as the lady gives her name.]

Oh? That's funny, I know someone with that-

[Wait. Slowly things start to click in her mind and... Estelle takes a step back, eyes wide and her hands covering her mouth in shock.]

[I wouldn't hit that]

[crisisrain]

Hahaha! This is hilarious! Oh man, I usually hate it when my suspicions are right but... ahahaha... no, no, I can't breathe, it's too funny! I'm gonna die!

[He clasps a hand over his mouth to try and stop the laughter. Nobody else was going to find this half as amusing as he did.]

[ps3pirate]

[That's true. Not even Patty finds this amusing. She can hear Raven laughing like a hyena by her side, but she can't even bring herself to crack a smile. Alexei turning into a woman is one thing. Alexei turning into a woman and invading their house is another.]

That's...! [What do you say to something like this? What do you do? All Patty knows for sure is that one of her hands is slowly moving towards her pistol.]

[trueknight]

[There's another person who's not smirking even the slightest bit. Although, this certainly explained why he was getting a weird feeling from this person, and why he couldn't help but be suspicious and cold.

Not knowing very much about Patty, he takes a glance at her before saying anything. ... And as much as he's tempted to just let her do whatever she wants, he knows it'd just end with other Luceti residents sticking their noses in their business.

And seriously, it was too early for this.]

Oh. How nice. [He nods his head in the direction of the front door.] The door's that way. I'm sure you can figure out how to let yourself out on your own.

[onlyashell]

[Raven's reaction was...honestly he was half expecting it. Considering he was the most vocal of the three, it did catch Alexei off-guard for a moment. Alexei doesn't look to Estelle the moment she realizes and only gave Patty a glance as she considers getting her pistol.

She looks to Yuri when he speaks.]

...I was just on my way out. Thank you for telling me the day at least. [And now let us find a path that will cause the least amount of drama to get to said door.]

[childofthefullmoon]

[Estelle doesn't say anything. She doesn't really know what to say. She's at a loss for words. So instead, she just backs up to help clear the way for Alexei to take his leave. Raven's uproar kind of bothers her though. She wouldn't wish something like this on anyone, but at the same time, this was Alexei.

Awkward.]

[ps3pirate]

[Patty also takes a step back to clear the way, but she isn't taking her eyes off Alexei for one moment. Her hand is still frozen by her side, halfway towards the pistol, as well.]

[trueknight]

[Yuri doesn't clear the way, but that's mostly because he's not in the way. Unless Alexei plans to exit through his room, anyway. He just continues to stare coldly.]

Whatever. Just go.

[crisisrain]

I can't believe you guys thought I brought Alexei home. [Nope, he's trying not to laugh any more but he's not doing very good at it.]

Are ya really just gonna let him walk? This is such an exploitable situation! It's such a shame ta let it go ta waste.

[childofthefullmoon]

[Estelle sighs as she watches Alexei go, finally lowering her hands and turning to look at Raven with a small frown.]

I think this is humiliating enough for him.

[No she's not defending Alexei in the least. But there's no sense in kicking a man while he's down. No need to stoop to that level.]

Uh... her.

[ps3pirate]

[Humiliating? Sure. But it's hardly punishment for everything Alexei's done. This sort of thing is a joke. It doesn't even come close. As much as she'd like to see Alexei suffer, this sort of thing just isn't right.]

The sooner Little Miss Commandant is out of here, the better.

[crisisrain]

He hasn't been a commandant fer a long, long time. I could do with askin' him somethin' but I guess it can wait fer another day.

[Raven's seen so many people end up genderswapped he's already expecting it to happen to himself at some point. He can't really see how it's humiliating when it's so common here.]

[trueknight]

If you want to ask her something, do it outside.

[Really, he just doesn't want Alexei around anymore, especially when they might have to make some kind of deal with the whole training school thing. That's probably the only thing keeping him from literally throwing Alexei out of the house.]

[onlyashell]

[...Geez Raven, what are you getting at? Alexei doesn't really stay for their entire conversation and was already gone by the time Patty started talking.

Really, there was no point in prolonging her stay here. It could have been worse to be honest, a lot worse. She was defenseless yes, but she was sure she could still at least...

Once she was outside, she decides to try and cast an arte. Just a fireball aimed toward the sky. At least knowing her own abilities weren't stolen from her would be something positive. Once she knows that, she can...go and find something more suitable to wear...hm.]

[childofthefullmoon]

[Once Alexei is gone, Estelle sighs softly and turns away from her friends. Standing there for a moment she then walks towards the kitchen.]

Breakfast is almost ready.

[She didn't really want to talk about Alexei any further.]

[ps3pirate]

[Patty is perfectly content to change the topic as well. She'll just pretend this whole thing never happened.]

Great! I'm starving, ya know!
