Poor baby

What'd your sensei have you doing?

I thought he was very nice. But he was nice the last time I spoke to him as well.

Mostly it's the fact that sudden traumatic transmutation of my Y chromosome into a second X doesn't seem to be a valid excuse for missing class.

Class. Heh.

I'm spending most of my days trying to get used to this new frame. Gotta re-learn how to stand, how to move.

You lookin' for a little supplemental sometime, come look me up. Hear you can read body-language, see moves before they happen.

Might make a fun challenge.

Wasn't quite as bad for me, but then I didn't have an adamantium-laced skeleton get spontaneously changed as part of my little adventure, so yeah.

Well, here's an approximate transcript of my phone conversation with him.

"I need to call out of class this evening, sir."
"Douglas? You sound different. What happened?"
"It's a weird mutant thing, sir, it'd be hard to explain."
"Try me, Douglas."
"...Igotturnedintoawoman."
"Beg pardon?"
"I got turned into a woman. Spontaneous transmutation of my Y chromosome into a second X."
"...I see. Are you injured?"
"Sir?"
"Aside from the sudden change in sex, are you physically unable to attend class?"
"...no sir."
"Then I will see you in half an hour when class begins, Douglas."

I suppose that explains the amused look on his face when I arrived to pick you up.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I got "Your girlfriend makes a rather attractive man, Douglas" too.

You're also not as good as I am.

Not bragging, just fact. A lot of what I do depends on precise balance and body-control.

All of that falls apart when your hips move wide, you drop six inches of height, and you lose significant muscle mass just about everywhere. Only upside is that a lot of my nerve meridians moved as well.

Almost not worth trying to readjust, but I got nothin' better to do.

Oh, come on, how bad could it be? Could be worse. Think Alison Blaire and her idea of an aerobics class.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

See above.

Also, I then got to be the demonstration dummy for the entire class.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Well, he is correct.
