Leo lets go of the man, him letting out a cough as he turns around.
Leo grunts, "Don't you know how to knock!?"
"How was I supposed to know you were getting it on wi-!?" He gets hit on the top of the head, causing him to back away from Leo.
"It doesn't fucking matter! And who the hell let you up here!?"
"I just snuck past! I asked to see you and they denied me..."
"So you sneak into my office unannounced!?"
"Again! How was I supposed to know you were- Ow!?" He gets hit again.
"First of all, I was not 'getting it on' with anyone! Second, I was just helping them up after they fell!"
"Well... the first part I can kind of believe as you said you weren't lesbian, but is the excuse of helping them up the best you could think of?"
"It's true though!"
"Anyway, so have your tastes changed because you became male?"
"Fuck no!.. Actually, I don't know, but I am not trying to get in her pants!"
"Yeah yeah, whatever you tell yourself."
Leo raises his hand again causing the man to shrink back with a squeal. I can't help but shrink even further into myself as they look over to me.
"So are you going to tell me what's actually happening or do I get to continue to dream about what you two were doing." My face can't get any hotter...
"They were changing out of their armor, then lost their balance and fell."
"Lost their balance, why?"
"They aren't used to their new height."
"Oh, she's another player?" He asks.
"Yep, that would be Camaella."
The mans eyes go wide, as he turns to me in surprise. "That's Camaella!?"
"Yeah."
The man rushes over to me, causing the wolves to hop up and growl at him.
"Woah now." He says, stopping and backing away.
"Shhh, it's okay." I tell the wolves, making them lay back down.
"I am so surprised you are real!" He says as he walks closer to me.
"Huh?"
"I just thought you meeting Leo was just a story he made up to make us jealous!"
"Jealous how?!"
"What are you talking about?! You have a huge fandom trying to figure out what your characters build is!"
Leo walks over to me, helping me back onto the couch.
"Just so you know, I told you what they played." Leo says.
"How the fuck do you expect me to believe you when it sounds like you are just roleplaying all the damn time!?"
"I do not do that!"
"You kinda do..." I mumble.
"See! She agrees with me." He crosses his arms.
"Anyway..." Leo says. "This is Reggie."
"Really!? My real name!?"
"Dude, it really doesn't matter does it?"
"I wasn't using your real name..."
"It wouldn't matter if you did!"
"It's bad gamer etiquette!"
"We are LITTERALLY living as our game characters right now, and you are caring about that!?"
"Right... sorry, anyway, is it true that you are a mage?!" He asks getting close to me, causing me to shift away from him.
Why is this relevant right now?! "Uh, um... Yeah..."
"How the hell do you make that work solo?!"
"Um, uh..." I can't think straight with how close he is getting.
Reggie is hit on the head again, causing him to back away quickly. "Ow!"
"You are making her more uncomfortable than she already is! Just act normal for a second, please!"
"Sorry!" He yells.
"I'm sorry for how he is acting. He just gets a little too excited about things like this."
Things like this!? What am I? A fucking object to be interested in?!
"She is a walking legend!"
Since fucking when!?
"That doesn't mean you shouldn't treat her like a person!"
I am too tired for this... I feel myself start to fall slightly, quickly righting myself and blinking a few times.
"Shit... you're right, sorry again." He bows to me.
"It's fine..." I say.
Leo lets out a sigh, walking over and sitting on the other side of the couch, Reggie quickly follows and sits next to him.
"So how was your travel?" Leo asks him.
"It was fine. It took a second to get used to being a little shorter but I am fine now." Reggie shrugs.
"At least you got used to it fast..." I mumble.
"Oh, were you not... wait, how tall is your character?" Reggie asks me.
"7'3... I was definitely not 7'3."
"Ah, so that's why you lost your balance?"
"Mhm." I nod.
"How tall are you in real life?" He asks, then his eyes go wide. "Shit sorry, you don't have to answer that."
"It's fine, I am 5'10."
"Holy shit that's a big jump." He says surprised.
"Yeah... it's been pretty hard to walk, the tail isn't helping either." My tail flicks.
"An extra limb probably isn't as weird as switching genders." He nudges Leo, causing Leo to look at him deadpan. I can't help but just stare at him too.
"What?" He says, looking back and forth at us. I shrink back and pull my legs up to my chest.
"Do you want me to tell him?" Leo asks. I nod, as I don't really feel like saying it again, I am already embarrassed enough.
"Camaella was a man before." He says, making Reggie's eyes go wide.
"What!?"
I nod again, shrinking back further.
"You have a lot more going on than I thought, I should have been more respectful and less nosy, sorry." He bows his head.
"It's fine..." I mumble, trying to calm myself down.
"Let's change the subject off of Camaella for a little please." Leo says, helping me out.
"Okay, well, how was your day so far?" Reggie asks Leo.
"Just a bunch of paperwork."
"Really? So the second you get into a GAME, you do WORK..."
"Pretty much, but hey, I'm a roleplayer at heart so it wasn't that bad." Leo shrugs.
"The first thing I did was fall on my face as I tried to walk." Reggie says.
"Did you run into any problems on the way here?"
"No, other than the random bullshit on the roads." Reggie shrugs.
"So normal travel, Ms. Camaella over here had anything but a normal trip." Leo says teasingly.
"I'll promise to protect myself better if you drop it." I shoot him a look.
"Oh, no no no, I got to hear this now!" Reggie says excitedly.
"Don't you-"
"She almost got raped."
I growl, causing them both to look up in surprise, they quickly shake it off though.
"How did that happen?!?"
"I just thought this was a dream, so I was just kind of witnessing what was happening without doing too much..."
"And you were just going to let someone have their way with you!?"
"No... I was uninterested in killing them, so I didn't."
"What were you going to do?"
"I don't know..." I shrink back again.
"Were you just going to use some magic or something?"
"Oh um, I don't know how to cast anything right now..."
"That's definitely an issue..."
"Alright, we ended up talking about Camaella again... Anyway, have you by chance heard from anyone else yet?" Leo asks Reggie.
"Nope, though maybe the message system still works? The inventory system seems to work like how it did."
"You can store water now at least." I say.
"Oh that's handy." Reggie says while pulling up a menu I can't see. "I sent a message to Isvald, I'll let you know if- Oh, he responded."
"Well that confirms the message system working, I'll message a few people as well to see if we can get a bigger group set up. I don't know about you guys, but I don't want to risk seeing if death is the same." Leo says, making me shiver at the thought of what death might do.
A few minutes later and it seems as though they are done sending out the messages. Leo looks over to me, "I didn't really see you move a whole lot, not going to message anyone?" He asks.
"I uh... don't really have anyone to message, I wasn't really 'friends' with anyone... just... played together a few times and they sent a request. I have you and like, 4 other people at most added as friends."
"Oh, alright." He kind of gives me a side eye, but I don't think he meant it in a bad way... I hope he didn't at least. I start to nod off again, snapping my head back up as I feel like I am falling.
"You should really get to sleep, you look like you are about to pass out." Leo says.
"I guess... yeah..." I nod, laying over and getting comfortable on the couch. I shift my tail a little but can't get it in a good position laying with it against the back of the couch. I turn the other way and have my tail partially fall off the couch, for some reason that's more comfortable for me at the moment.
"Do you have any water I can drink?" Reggie asks Leo.
"Yeah, one second." I hear some shuffling behind me, I can feel the sleepiness hit me hard as my body starts to relax.
I yelp as something brushes my tail, making me jump and turn around quickly, pulling my tail towards my chest.
"Oh, sorry!" Reggie says as he puts his hands up. "I wasn't thinking and was curious how it felt- OW! Again!? Really?!" He is hit on the head again, even harder this time.
"What the fuck is wrong with you!?" Leo yells.
"I'm sorry! Really! Like I said I wasn't thinking! I know I should have asked first." He shrinks down.
Leo growls, "Are you okay Camaella?"
"Uh, yeah, just startled me is all." I say as I start to calm down, letting my tail fall next to me.
"Alright, go ahead and go back to sleep, I'll keep an eye on dipshit here..."
"Okay..." I say as I lay back down.
I slowly wake up, almost falling backwards as I am still extremely groggy. I take a look around, Leos room coming into focus. I sit up, looking down at myself, letting out a sigh.
"Ah, you're awake." Leo says from a small desk in the corner of the room.
"Yeah..." I say, rubbing my eyes. "How long was I asleep, and, why am I in your bed now?" I ask because it doesn't look like the time of day has changed, and I am confused on how I got here.
"It's been a day."
...
HUH!?
"What!?" I say, looking around again. "Why didn't you wake me up!?"
"I tried... multiple times actually, um, and I feel like I should apologize..."
"Why..?"
"After a few hours, Reggie left to try to meet up with some of his friends. I tried to wake you then, but you didn't even budge. You seemed to be sleeping alright, so I left you alone."
"Uhuh?"
"After another hour or so, you started to whimper and tremble, so I rushed over and tried to wake you. You didn't respond still, so I tried touching your tail to wake you, but nothing worked."
"Oh, is that why you want to apologize?" It's not that big of a deal... but that doesn't explain you moving me to the bed.
"Well, yes, but that's not the end of it."
"Oh..."
"You started crying, so I just held you until you stopped, I don't know how long you were crying for, but it was a while. By the time you calmed down, it was well into the night, so I carried you in here so I could keep an eye on you and fell asleep."
"Ah, that's why were here. I thought you may have changed your mind about 'trying to get into my pants' and took advantage of the situation." I tease him. But why was I crying?
"Fuck no, and your wolves would have tried to tear me to shreds if I did anything. It was hard enough to get them to allow me to move you."
"Not like they would have been an issue for you..."
"No, but I don't think you would have liked that."
True.
I close my eyes stretch my back, letting out a tense breath as soreness starts to radiate through my body. At least the headaches gone... I look back to Leo as he stares at me, letting out a sigh.
"You are going to need to pay more attention..."
"What the... What did I do now?!"
"You are wearing a loose shirt..."
"And?!"
"Stretching like that... you know, stretches the fabric around your chest."
"Mhm?"
"God damnit you are female right now! You have boobs! Doing that accentuates them, and it's not like they are small!"
"Oh... right..."
"Jesus fuck..." He pinches he bridge of his nose.
"And to think this was set just below half..." I look down at my breasts.
"Yeah, I remember seeing people with the characters breasts maxed out, I can just think about how much their back hurts right now, and how much they regret being overly horny with the creation of it."
I shiver at the thought... "Yeah, I'm just glad I didn't do that."
"Yeah, you just made the character look good, I respect it."
I feel my face heat up a little. Why am I getting flustered from that?
