I guess I should go see people... Right?

@Intrepid

I guess so! Not sure who, though. Techi, probably.

*Giggles lightly*
I suppose I couldn’t really get mad anyone for it. It’s understandable.

@Intrepid

*Laughs* That’s what friends are for, Vi! Well, what would you like to do right now?

Hopefully it doesn’t last long. It’s going to be great to ease their concerns, but I’m not a fan of preferential treatment.

@Intrepid

It’ll just be prefe-friend-tial treatment!

Spirit, about the storm thing.

@Intrepid

-Spirit- Somehow, it is being channeled through your body. You have some of the translucence of Spectre, so the effects of the storm are visible in your skin. I suspect they will only escape if you let them, however.

I’m sure I’ll catch a lot of people staring at the very least.
*Traces some of the purple lines on my arm from the storm’s effects*
I think I see what you mean, though.

@Intrepid

Sorry, which one of us?

That sounds like the feeling. I suppose giving me at least a copy of my old body wasn’t doable for whatever reason. I don’t feel like I look human at all.

@Intrepid

I’m sorry about that. It must feel so strange, looking into a mirror and seeing a kinda-different you. You do look beautiful, though, Vi!
-Spirit- We could not restore your original, organic body. Your soul was transformed by Surgespace, and it will forever storm, so we had to create something that could handle it.

It’s really weird. I definitely feel out of place because this isn’t what I’ve been used to all my life, but it doesn’t really feel.. Wrong, either.

@Intrepid

What a juxtaposition! That must be kind of dissonant. So it’s like... That sounds like how I felt when I first learned I have powers. It was like I was completely new, but using my magic just felt right.

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Well, I did? Spirit did?... We did? I don’t know exactly how it worked.

@Intrepid

Oh! Neat. I’m sure he did well. I can’t imagine you feel quite at home in it yet, though, or do you?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Wow. Not all of your past selves were very good people.

@Intrepid

-Ruby- No, ma’am. I hope someone good made your body, though.

“Pretended”? I don’t think I’ve heard that story from you before.

@Intrepid

It was when I started learning about my magic. All the old Ladies of Order had been in a battle for which of two should take over, and they tried to trick me into letting one of them have full control.
