Pantsu part 3 [Video]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[The face on the video is in fact one Rei Hino, but it something certainly seems off about her. For one, she looks completely disheveled and distressed- two, she's dressed in clothes that are not only bright and obnoxious but also roughly eight sizes too big.]

[There's an equally distressed Fletchling flitting in and out of the feed with a chorus of "FLETCH! FLETCHLING FLETCH!" in the background.]

Um. It seems like I'm not the only one that woke up different from when I went to sleep! Ah...

[Oh god this is so awkward. Why did he end up a girl. Why did he also end up his cousin.]

This- This is Eiji Hino, by the way. Has anyone seen me walking around?

[Private to Rei]

Rei-chan? I know you went to a party last night, are you okay? [ARE YOU HIM?]

[Despite the fact that he's asking if she's okay, he looks awfully nervous himself.]

Comments

[faithfulflame]

Thanks...[She takes them and slips into the tent, returning a moment later changed and with some extra clothes for him.]

You should put these on. It'll be less awkward for you.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[Less awkward, she says. He takes the clothing, looks down and turns bright red. He was hoping he could actually avoid any sort of dressing or undressing while stuck in this body. Looks like that was not the case!]

[Also, he was really hot in these clothes. He was really hot in general which is weird because he's always sort of been the opposite.]

[Wait what's that smell. Oh. The clothes were on fire.]

[faithfulflame]

Eiji-kun! Y-you're on fire! Quickly! Get out of those clothes! Mine are f-fire proofed!

[underwearfortomorrow]

[Eiji does a funny thing, a thing that might not be all that surprising to Rei if she picked up on Eiji's disinclination towards fire. He screams.]

[He screams, drops the clothes in his hands and proceeds to completely rip off whatever else he's wearing in a fit of abject terror. It probably looks like a completely overblown reaction unless you ...knew Eiji's past with fire...]

[faithfulflame]

[Which triggers a pretty similar level of freakout from Rei. Because how do you handle that? She's just...she's not in the right body, and if she was she could do something about it! She does the only thing she can even think to do at the time.]

Moeris! Bubble Beam!

[And scuttling out of the tent comes the big Kingler, immediately spraying Eiji down with bubbles. It...probably actually stings a bit, but it should put out the fire.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[Honestly, in his frame of mind right now, he doesn't even feel it. Yet. He'll probably be sore later. The blast of bubbles knocks him to the ground where he just kind of curls up on himself, hyperventilating.]

[The fire is out, but the sound is still in his ears. He can hear it burning down around him.]

[Hina had been circling around overhead but when the screaming started she flew in closer. She lands in front of Eiji, cautious but clearly concerned. She perched on some part of him and tries to nudge him worriedly.]

[This is Eiji. Eiji doesn't look like Eiji but this is Eiji and he is upset. This is not okay :< ]

[faithfulflame]

[Rei drops to her needs beside him, reaching out to just start pulling off smoldering clothes. That's got to be the first thing, everything else is secondary. It's not like it's not her body, anyway.]

Eiji-kun, help me. The fire's gone, but we need to get you into some of my clothes so this doesn't happen again.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[It takes him a moment to get his breathing under control. He finally looks up at her and takes a deep, less panicky breath. He nods wordlessly and starts helping her with the clothes.

He's a little less concerned about the embarrassment now, at least. Only, now he's kind of mortified for freaking out in front of her like that.]

not even gonna attempt linking icons on my phone:p

[faithfulflame]

[Once the fire is out and he seems calmer, Rei squeezes his hand reassuringly. Despite the awkward size of her new palms.]

It's okay. My body won't burn. I promise.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He gently squeezes her hand back, quirking a faint smile but not really meeting her eyes. Hina is just going to aggressively burrow into the crook of his neck.]

[He'll just straighten his news clothes a bit and get back to his feet.]

Sorry. I ah- guess I'm not very good with your abilities.

[faithfulflame]

It's not your fault. I...you...just run hotter than the average person. I've had special clothes made since I awakened. Just trust me, you'll be okay with them.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He looks the clothes over a bit. With a nod he looks up and finally looks at her, putting on a bright smile. Hina gets a few scritches also which she is pleased about.]

Thank you. Ah- I wonder what we should do from here. Have you had any difficulties with my abilities...?

[faithfulflame]

No, not that I am aware of. I...am really cold, though. I've just been trying to keep concentrating on not doing anything.

And...I don't even know what you can do, really.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He's thoughtful and then he nods sympathetically when she mentions the cold. It's become pretty normal for him, but this is also a reason he is always dressed in so many layers.]

When we get back to the Shrine I can give you more clothes. Ah...

[Right. His powers.]

They're not so different from yours. I can create ice but ...they're very unpredictable so I try not to use them.

[faithfulflame]

I think...I'll probably avoid doing much where I can.

[She steps closer to him, reaching out to touch her...own...hand...just for warmth.]

I don't know how you stand it.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He nods. That's a very good idea, honestly.]

I've gotten pretty used to it. [Here you can have both his hands.]

Though, my heat tolerance isn't very good, myself. It feels like I'm melting.

[faithfulflame]

[Let's be real, she just hugs him.]

Well. At least our bonds seem intact. [She looks to Hina.] Sorry, Hina. I really am.
