This isn't funny. This is actually kinda bullshit. I mean, it ain't the worst curse that's ever happened, but it's still pretty bad. Who the fuck thought this was a good idea? I'm stuck as a goddamned girl.

[You can almost hear him sulking through the text.]

And don't even try getting me to talk or show my face until this bullshit is over, okay?

[Which means, of course, everyone should try to get him to do so. After all, he has a beautiful girl!PB that shouldn't go to waste.]

Are you cute?

Can I come over and see?

[Definitely hints of doing more than seeing there.]

Re: voice

[trenchknives]

Fuck, I dunno. I guess I'm kinda cute.

Re: voice

[water_wine_wizard]

If you're anything like how you look as a man, I would definitely say so.

Re: voice

[trenchknives]

I mean, I actually look pretty similar. Just, y'know, more like a girl. Shit, it's weird.

Re: voice

[water_wine_wizard]

[She laughs.]

I know the feeling, actually.

[monochrome_mirror]

Come now, it's not the worst that could happen at all. None of us are dying or being harmed. I'm in the same boat as you, only in the opposite direction.

Perhaps it would do your ego some good to appear on the Network, if only to prove to yourself that such a change cannot affect you.

Jimmy!

Hey, what's wrong with being a girl? I'm normally a girl. I, uh, I'm not today, but I don't really mind!

Except my skirt fits kind of weirdly.

Re: voice

[trenchknives]

Yeah? How's that?

[trenchknives]

I dunno about that. I feel like it is the kinda change that affects you whether you want it to or not.

[trenchknives]

Guess there's nothing wrong with it if it's what you're used to, but I'm not used to it.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Fair enough, I guess. I'm pretty used to it, so yeah.

Hey, I guess you can try out whatever you want that girls get to do, now.

[trenchknives]

I feel like I'm gonna regret this, but what kind of things do girls get to do?

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

I...didn't really think about what that would be. Well, I guess if you sleep with anyone, you get to do it as a girl, now. Seems like it would be different!

I wouldn't know; I've never been a guy before.

[trenchknives]

Yeah, I guess that's true, but I don't wanna sleep with guys. I guess I'd have to sleep with other girls.

You seem to be adjusting to being a guy pretty okay, though.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

Yeah! I mean, what do guys normally do? They're pretty strong and tend to have lots of initiative and fight people. Except I always do that.

I'm not really sure I care if I'm a guy or not. It doesn't matter much! Except I guess if I wanted eggs, I'd have to find a female raven instead of a male this time, but I don't really prefer one over the other in principle. I think you humans have a word for that, but I don't remember what it is.

[trenchknives]

Yeah, I guess guys normally fight people. That sounds about right.

[At least, to his own experience.]

You really don't care? You don't think it's weird at all? I dunno, it's just such a big change.

[thermonuclear_birdbrain]

How about you? We could spar sometime.

I mean, yeah, it's a bit different, but that big of a change? I just feel a little differently centered, like my balance is a bit off, and I have a flat chest and a few different parts, but...what's the real change here? I'm still the same species, and I don't really look different aside from a bit bigger shoulders and wings and my face is stronger-looking.

As for how I think? Eh, not really, I'm still me. What, do you not feel like you?

[monochrome_mirror]

Well, yes. I certainly feel very odd and...well, a little bit confused about what to do now, especially with my clothes. But we are at least not injured. The handcuff curse was worse for my physical integrity...

[trenchknives]

We might not be physically injured, but I can't say my psychological integrity is holding up well.

[trenchknives]

Yeah, we could spar sometime. I'm a pretty good fighter.

[At least, he gets in a lot of fights...]

Yeah, I guess I feel like I'm not myself. I just feel off balance, like you said, but not just physically.

[makingastatement]

What, did they put a wig on you and call it a day?

[ Because coping with these kinds of changes is much easier when it's at someone else's expense. ]

Re: text;

[trenchknives]

They turned me into a girl, asshole. What, they didn't get you?

text;

[makingastatement]

Easy. It gets everybody, doesn't it? I mean-- it ain't like they're singling you out.

[water_wine_wizard]

I have a twin brother. We look very much alike. Well... except the ears.

Re: text;

[trenchknives]

Well, as always, some people get skipped. Guess you didn't, though.

[A pause, and then another message.]

What do you look like?
