OP: Update - Party is tomorrow so it’s been almost two weeks now. She still hasn’t gone back to boymode, not that I want her to.

  She talked to her parents and that was interesting. I had to vouch for her over the phone and everything. Her mom didn’t really bat an eye and rolled with it but they asked to talk to me as well.

  Her dad however was all “You aren’t forcing my son to do this are you?” Which would’ve been rude if his tone hadn’t sounded so worried. Of course I denied that and her mom defended me and asked if her daughter was trans.

  I said yes, but she apparently couldn’t realize that. “I’m sorry my daughter is such a dumbass.” Hirious.

  And I gave the phone back to her so she could keep talking. The whole call was a riot especially when started talking to her dad.

  “I’m just proving myself to her pop.” And he sounded so exasperated at that lmao. My gf, pure of heart, dumb of ass.

  Iuthimya: Adamantium eggshell. They should study her for material science.

  Sapphocles: I’d hate to be in this situation but goddess above that’s peak comedy.

  PewterAddict: And I thought my eggshell was dense lmao.

  OP: I swear I've made the face that guy in Bee Movie made more times than I can count at this point. My face might get stuck.

  DustyDork: Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with Maximum Egg? You may be entitled to financial compensation.

  ProfwithBigHat: Her brain is too smooth, your words simply slide right off.

  OP: Apparently smh. Her brother is visiting in a few weeks so we’ll see how that goes.

  Right now she’s figuring out her costume. I’ve been altering her clothes for her, thankfully that spell is permanent so she hasn’t had to spend more even if I can’t change their styles too much. (Morgan’s 2nd Law on Inanimate Transfiguration and all that.)

  WhichWitchHour: If you use the spell on something with extra fabric and another piece at the same time you can change both and transfer some of the material.

  OP: Wait really? That’s super useful, thank you.

  WhichWithHour: Yup. It gets harder the more pieces you alter at the same time so I wouldn’t recommend more than three or four at once. I’ve been studying the extent you can go to and the most I’ve managed was seven but I started losing precision at five and at eight I ended up with a clump of fabrics.

  OP: Have you tried altering some of the formation? I swapped out a few of the runes I use for the human transfig spell and I think I’ve found a sequence that might push it to st a week. At least I’ll have a pretty good thesis by year's end despite all this.

  WhichWitchHour: Would you mind sending me some of your notes on that?

  OP: Sure thing! If you could send some of yours too that’d be great! transfigrunestudy.docx

  WhichWitchHour: Of course. inanimatealterationnotes.docx

  ProfwithBigHat: I wish my students were as inquisitive. That being said, transfig isn’t my specialty. Do you two mind if I send this to a colleague?

  WhichWitchHour: Oh please do, I could use a more trained eye.

  OP: Same here.

  She finished and I’m looking forward to the party more lol. Now she’s fussing over whether it's okay and I tried telling her no one will bat an eye. There’s literally a succubus enrolled who wears stuff way more revealing. She accepted that and I told her she can just stick with me if she gets uncomfortable.

  Sapphocles: Adorable.

  Iuthimya: That’s lovely. I wish my ex had been this supportive.

  PewterAddict: That’s such a mood. Mine was not at all supportive when I came out.

  OP: That’s terrible. Hopefully you found something better. Thankfully no one in our friend group has been bad about it. One of them was kind of salty but when we pressed, she admitted her bf is kind of draining so she was just jealous we work so well.

  One of the guys was pretty silent about the whole thing but he said it was just enlightening or something? Weird but eh.

  Sapphocles: ( ?° ?? ?°)

  Iuthimya: Ignore her, she’s ridiculous. Has your gf shown any signs of hatching?

  OP: I noticed. And no not yet, I’d almost say it's like her shell got reinforced? She’s still working out and all that but she brushes off any attempts to broach those topics? I have patience tho. I'll start calling her Mira here since that's what she named her character in the game.

  I did suggest a therapist or counselor and she refused so that doesn’t help. I only mentioned it after my own appointment because mine suggested it and it seemed like a good idea?

  I won’t pressure her since outside of the egg thing she’s always been more together than I have at least.

  WhichWitchHour: Some people can’t get past that stigma. Doesn’t make any sense to me but to each their own I suppose.

  PewterAddict: I bme the media. Therapy ftw.

  Seer1256: Sometimes all you can do is be supportive.

  Iuthimya: I’ll send you some links if you’d like? My aunt is a therapist and I can consult her for some sources.

  OP: Oh sweet, tyvm. I’ll take a look ter tn!

  **-5+ Comments Folded-**

  OP: Small update. Party was today and suffice to say we ran into some… issues I guess. I don’t pn on saying anything at the moment but I’ll update ya’ll tomorrow if I can. Or if I remember. It's been a long night.

  @Iuthimya Thanks again, I’m gonna have to use those links for sure.

  Sapphocles: Ruhroh that’s totally not foreboding at all, nope nope nope.

  Iuthimya: I hope they’re okay.

  WhichWitchHour: +1
