Ferryman's Pact Pt.2 - 2022

BaftComorant, Punch Clock Animal/Masa con Papas

CW: None

 

 Opera: How’s it going?

Charon: Mm?

Opera: You’re trying stuff on?

Charon: Couldn’t go around in that gaudy new-age look the cult used to flaunt this body around in.

Opera: Not a fan… so what’s that?

Charon: I… may have gone shopping some. I want my first day to be something proper..

Opera: A lot of these are really cute…

Opera: Oh god, I don’t know if I’ve seen a Ferryman in anything but pants… I don’t think I’ve worn a lot of skirts either though…

Charon: Pants used to be pretty important. They were for protecting the prosthetics. The older style tech made them higher maintenance if not well covered.

Charon: Always a layer of long socks or leggings with big protective pants for outings where there’s a chance of rough and tumble.

Opera: That makes a lot of sense actually…

Charon: Body is long gone though so… trying new things…

You take a long look at one of your hands, processing being in a new form.

Opera: Everything okay?

Charon: Mm.. everything’s so pretty…

Opera: You already were before!

Charon: In a different way. Never realized you don’t have pads, unusual for a karacel…

Opera: Different world.

Charon: Suppose so…

Opera: What’s got you though?

Charon: It looks so… soft. But there’s claws that give your hands an edge to them.

Charon: You’re built differently from her…

Opera: From your Opera?

Charon: Mm..

Opera: Cult modding, and just growing up a bit different I guess.

Opera: I’m sorry…

Charon: I mean… I think I resonate with it.

Charon: I was a mash up of fiend and dog and nightmare mutations so…

Charon: Things feel right at home.

Opera: Really?

Charon: Mm. Is that okay or…

Opera: It’s fine! Just..

Opera: The way the cult left me felt so weird… like my body wasn’t mine anymore and..

Opera: I didn’t like that but…

Opera: I dunno. Fact that you still like it even then makes me happy…

Charon: Mm…

Charon: I’m taller now too…

Opera: By like, an inch? Two tops?

Charon: It counts…

Opera: You just want to be tall.

Charon: A little, nothing wrong with that.

Charon: Soon I want to find everyone but… do worry it’d be a big change.

Charon: Memories are coming back slowly now that I’m grounded again.

Opera: They’ll still care about you I think…

Charon: I hope I haven’t been gone long… do you remember anything?

Opera: Not a lot… didn’t have that many close people back home anyway. But…

Opera: If I do, lets both make sure to meet each other’s people. Introduce each other and all/

Charon: Mm… and if you don’t remember, I’m sure my family will take you in.

Opera: Think so?

Charon: Know so.

Charon: Now um…

Charon: How’s this?

Opera: THe sweater look is so cute… do it.
