[justicereigns]

[She slowly drifts to awareness, feeling slightly heavy. The scent of tobacco lingering in the air. Has she been teleported to Sanji's bed again? She raises a hand to her forehead and stops. Her hand is too big. Her arm moves in a different way, a strange way and there is something...... off. Very off. Her body is not her body. Robin opens her eyes and finds herself in Zoro. ...Or, maybe not, though it certainly looks like Zoro minus the scars. Hmm. Pulling back the blankets she lifts the hem of her boxers and checks. Not Zoro then. Unless he has a very interesting dye job. The boxers themselves are white with a Marine logo on them.]

Interesting.

[Was that her voice? No...no of course not, it was his. Smoker, obviously. Who else? She can't seem to access any of his memories though, pity. Though on the other hand.... She concentrates for a moment and feels the changes, as if she has hands that can feel every square inch of air, sensitive to movement, air pressure, incredible power. Though it takes more effort to reform herself, himself? And when she does she finds she has left the boxers behind and it is another interesting sensation all together.]

Well, then.

[A moment later she is dressed and with practice acquired from a similar event, lights one cigar and then, remembering, the other, as she stares at the mirror and Smoker grimaces back at her.]

[This should be interesting.]

[Ooc: Robin will be everywhere today trying to see what trouble she can get into.]

Comments

[justicefluers]

Yes. Some things are crueler than others, but most of the things seem more intent on making people meet each other or for amusement.

[deadlyjuliet]

[Being overly distracted by the sudden switch in her own sex, Grell doesn't notice the change in Smoker right away. Besides, she's much more interested in the fact that he's only in his boxers.]

Dressed up to meet me, did you?

[toujours_reigns]

[Now what is she supposed to do with this? The woman is obviously flirting but it's hard to know what is the appropriate response. Robin leans against the door and folds her arms, grinning.]

You could say that.

[toujours_reigns]

[The expression stops Robin a little cold. She understands mentally that it's understandable, given what she looks like, but something pricks under her skin that feels suspiciously like rejection]

I suppose I can. It shouldn't be too hard.

[And she might sound pretty distant]

[deadlyjuliet]

[Well, no use in being coy. She steps forward and tries to put her arms up around his neck.]

Do you like how I dressed to see you?

[aka, actually filling out the red dress instead of it being flat. And hey, curves. Those are new.]

1/2

[toujours_reigns]

[Robin is too off guard to stop her, really. Though you might feel things starting to go a bit smoky until she forces things back to a solid state. When she does she finds her hands, Smoker's hands, already on the woman's hips as if it was a natural progression.]

[And Robin, though she doesn't know too much about such things, incessant flirting with Marco nonwithstanding, that this woman is very much attracted to Smoker. Though who can say if the relationship goes both ways. Still...]

2/2

[toujours_reigns]

You're quite beautiful. [Because she was] Unfortunately, I'm not him. We seem to have switched bodies through a Malnosso experiment. [Though she says this softly]

I'm sorry, ne?

[fierybluebird]

[Aw shit. Okay. This is take all his courage, but he grabs her hand to hold it. Even though it's Smoker's.]

At least you're still mentally you, eh? [Looking... up into those eyes as though trying to see the girl behind the man.]

If you're not going to get started right away, come have coffee with me, eh? We can confuse everyone wondering what two mortal enemies are doing drinking coffee together. [... Removing that cigar from her mouth. It freaks him out less if she's not smoking.]

[toujours_reigns]

[She's surprised when his hand takes hers and her first impulse is to jerk away. That doesn't happen to her often even normally. He's looking up at her earnestly. She seems to be blushing. For a marine this body blushes quite often]

I would like that. [And she is glad when the cigar is gone]

But how can you be sure I'm not Ace? [And she is definitely teasing]

[fierybluebird]

Ace doesn't act cute the same way you do. [Sticks his tongue out and aww... blushing... Luckily it's so unlike anything Marco's seen he's not too freaked out by it. He didn't even know Robin COULD blush. Or Smoker... Whatever.]

Besides, I told you to prank him earlier, eh. [The best part about being a chronic liar was that bluffs sort of covered themselves after awhile. Especially since all of Marco's lies were generally joking in nature.]

And for the record, normally I would have pretended to be having a fake affair with him, but you're having a rough day and it wouldn't be that funny anyway. [He can't exactly pat her head, but he squeezes the hand lightly.] Come on. To the cafe.

[uccellodifuoco]

[They screwed with it more than just to make you forget Ikki, man. Honey??]

You're taking it quite well. What do you remember then?

[He doubts it has only affected the memories about him after all.]

5/27

[seakingbait]

[Going for a walk today, Robin? You should probably pay attention to the sky. Or, at least, the flash of green and white plummeting quickly out of the sky in your direction. It seems a certain mermaid-turned-harpy doesn't quite have flying down yet.]

[Action] 05/31st

[uccellodifuoco]

[Have Ikki blink and look at you as if you have grown a second head. And no, it's not due the shift that made you a girl, he remembers that.]

What do you mean with that? You know I'm not one to give a damn about the Malnosso but the way you said that sounds as if you're blaming them for the shifts.

[Which is a bit ridiculous, true that they aren't extremely trustworthy in Ikki's opinion, but they are the ones that normally stop the shifts, not the ones who provoke them.]

[Action] 05/29th

[uccellodifuoco]

[... The child just stares at you. Yes, he's pretty sure you were a big, strong dude, not a girl.]

What... Smoker?

[Action] 05/31st

[justicefluers]

[BLANK STARE. He kind of remembers something about this sort of brainwashing...]

Hey, do remember me being married to Lav-- Labrador?

[Action] 05/29th

[justicefluers]

Believe it or not. [Exasperated sigh.]

I'm normally scruffier. [... And you know, he doesn't normally have boobs because he's a dude. Whatever.]

[Action]

[gironzolidifuoco]

[Ikki scowls, though in Hyoga's body it's clearly not as impressive as in his own body. Either Smoker is good in catching up with things... Which he can be. Or Hyoga is already up and around.]

Is he awake yet?

[Priorities, he wants to know how much he can avoid talking with Hyoga.]

[Action] 05/31st

[uccellodifuoco]

[That makes Ikki look uncomfortable for a second, after all as tough as they are, it's still a delicate subject, but why is Smoker bringing it up now? As far as he knows, Labrador and Kirimi, along with other people like his own mother, have vanished from Luceti in the last year, going into the woods and never returning. But there's still always hope that they may return, some have done so after all, haven't they?]

Have he and Kirimi returned?

[Action] 05/29th

[uccellodifuoco]

You're normally a dude.

[Ikki, captain obvious. He doesn't seem to like this change, honestly.]

[Action] 05/31st

[justicefluers]

[A wince.] No.

[Oops. He didn't expect that to hurt so much. Stupid also being in a girl's body. It's a good thing Robin is one of least emotional girls he can think of though.] I just mean that was a shift...

[Action] 05/29th

[justicefluers]

[Yes, good point little Ikki.]

Well, what do you know, I do believe you're correct.

[Smoker's not a fan either, especially with his girlfriend being extra sexy now =\]

Welcome back to Luceti. Sorry it's even more of a mess than when you were here.

[Action]

[justicefluers]

Yup.

[Just steps aside to leave Ikki to go find Hyoga.] He's bonding with the pup.

[If "bonding" means giving the same lectures Ikki does about how it will grow weak and dependent by being fed.]

[Action] 05/31st

[uccellodifuoco]

[Ikki doesn't get it. You're about to tell him his whole life is a lie, man, that his sister isn't his sister and what not.]

I think you have lost me.

[Really, why bring those two up so suddenly?]

[Action] 05/29th

[uccellodifuoco]

Is my brother still not here?

[Yeah, once the "you're a woman now" shock has wore off the kid comes to his priorities again.]

[Action]

[gironzolidifuoco]

Bonding?

[He enters and arches an eyebrow, well, if he's awake that means that he has seen them so there's little he can do to do damage control now.]

Is that how you call now the attempts to not have him grown as a spoiled pet?
