o39 [Action]

[Finally feeling better and able to go out, Okita was having quite a good time seeing everyone else's changes. It wasn't until he woke up this morning and tried to roll out of bed that he noticed something was wrong.

Very wrong.

But, perhaps people wouldn't notice.

Thus, Okita goes about his normal routine. As a woman. He's busy trying to cover that up, however, with a little padding around the waist and by keeping to his usual attire. Particularly attentive people, however, might notice he has a slight bust now and his voice is just a little higher than usual.

People can find him anywhere, from House 50 to the town getting supplies to the Welcome Center or even out on patrols.]

....Why are you dressed like that?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[Why is everyone acting so weird today? Seriously.]

How else would I be dressed, Okita-san?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Um...like you usually do?

Oh! Did you change costumes with your brother?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[...what are you even talking about, Okita. Here, have a rather baffled ninja looking at you like those breasts have done something to your brain.]

.....

No.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

............................................oh.

[Staring at her now because what is going on.]

...

This would explain why he was in the kitchen, though.

[Ayumu stares back. She's good at this. Even if she doesn't quite know the reason for it.]

Okita-san?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

...Yes?

[What is this experiment, seriously. Everyone's flipping out in different ways. 8(]

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

Why are you a woman?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

........................................

[Damn. Of course she'd notice.]

...I'm not sure. I woke up this way.

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[Well, at least he doesn't think it's normal. That's something.]

Is Hijikata-san aware?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

...Not yet?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[She considers that briefly, then nods. Fine, you get to tell him, Okita. Enjoy that.]

This is a strange experiment.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Yeeeeaaaaaaah, he is not looking forward to that.]

It is. It's several things all at once it seems.

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

Yes. Children, thoughts that can be read, people singing. [Pause, with a glance down at Okita's... chest.] Other changes.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Wow, checking out his boobs. 8( He shifts a little under the glance.]

Yes. Other changes. Not exactly comfortable ones.

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

Hm.

And people acting oddly.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, that's to be expected with experiments.

.....

[Staring at her.]

Are you quite alright?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[Why on earth do people keep asking that? It's starting to get a little weird.]

Yes.

Why do you ask?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

No reason.

[Maybe because this version of Ayu-nee is just like wat wat wat]

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[Once could be coincidence. Maybe even twice. But three of them? Yeah, that's just strange.

So she hesitates a moment before finally asking.]

Is something different?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

If it was, would you want to be told?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[...yeah, you have a point there, Okita.

She hesitates to consider the question from as many angles as she can, expression unchanging as she does.]

Depends on the difference.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

And if it was a big one?

[tostepforward.livejournal.com]

[Her brow creases in a slight frown.]

How big?

[...she didn't used to be a boy, did she? Because that would just be... strange.]

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

As in you're not in the position you used to be.
