Double booked: Two bookworms

Ranko sat with her arms folded under her breasts, staring at the two customers showed up. She glared at Nabiki, who offered her a sweet smile in return. They'd shown up together, neither of them willing to give this a try without the other. Both of them were total bookworms, known for hiding in the library and staying away from all the chaos and excitement. The girl wanted to join the track and field team with some of her friends, but she was also self conscious about her freckles and didn't want people to see them when she wore the track uniform. The boy wanted to join the archery club to make his grandpa proud and follow in the family tradition, but his eyesight was never very good and he had to wear thick glasses. Both of them swore up and down that they didn't intend to use this to get an unfair advantage, they just wanted to participate and have the kind of full school life like all their classmates.

Ranko grumbled under her breath, not liking that all these two were okay with taking shortcuts, but didn't say anything out loud. Nabiki had been stern with her about that after she almost ruined the last two appointments. Threats of circulating those humiliating photos were enough to keep Ranko from insulting these customers. The ledger snapped shut while Ranko was busy complaining in her head, so she didn't hear that Nabiki had sold a chunk of physical talent to each customers along with Ranko's complexion and eyesight.

Ranko groaned and clenched her teeth once the ledger snapped shut. Two people each taking a piece of her was far more intense than what she'd felt before. Her whole body trembled as years of carefully honed reflexes and a finely tuned sense of balance were whittled down and pulled away from her. Ranko's muscles dwindled, only barely visible under her loose clothing, becoming less tightly coiled, less dense, weaker. Even sitting down she felt dizzy and had to hold onto the table to stay balanced.

She looked over at the two customers seeing them groaning, but they didn't seem to be in pain. It was more like they were stretching after a good workout, rolling their shoulders, arching their backs. She noticed the boy adjusting his glasses, like something was wrong with them. He slowly pulled them away, set them on the table, and blinked several times.. But as he did, Ranko's vision started to get fuzzier, with little details becoming blurry in the distance. She strained her eyes trying to refocus them but her concern was shifted to a strange sensation across her skin. Like little water droplets hitting her. She pulled her hands close to her face and saw her skin turning lighter, becoming speckled with little faint dots. A squint and a lean forward towards the girl revealed her face had cleared, taking on the sort of clear, healthy glow of a girl who loved to exercise outdoors.

Ranko watched the two of them compliment each other while she caught her breath. They were ecstatic about the results, with the girl eagerly gripping at the boy's biceps. The two of them headed out after giving their thanks, with the girl eagerly taking Ranko's hand and shaking it without her realizing right away what she was doing. Ranko realized what a hit to her senses she'd taken when Nabiki snuck up behind her and placed the boy's glasses on her face, instantly de-fogging her vision and causing her bigger, expressive eyes to flutter with embarrassment.

Training that evening was a disaster. When she turned back into her male self, nearly all of the changes persisted. His skin was still pale and freckled, his body was noticeably slimmer, and his eyes were still large and feminine looking, and only seemed larger with those glasses on. Ranma told himself he didn't need them, but out of precaution, he pocketed them anyways. His evening training had him tripping over his own feet, stumbling across the dojo, and messing up forms he'd doing a million times. When sparring, he took quite a beating due to his sluggish reflexives and slower, weaker body.

[Nabiki has taken notice of Ranma's degraded skills. She will start going out of her way to find people to sell Ranko's abilities to before they naturally fade.]

His training the next morning was just as bad. His father was certain he was sick, giving how pale and spotty he looked, but Ranma insisted he was fine. He managed to get to school without needing the glasses, but the rest of the day was miserable. He tripped in the halls and spilled his backpack across the floor. He couldn't see the chalkboard and answered several questions incorrectly. He tried to participate in PE, but ended up sitting on the sidelines after getting hit in the head by a baseball that he was trying to catch. Worst of all, he noticed that several of his customers were clearly performing much better than him and creating quite a stir. Rumors were starting to swirl about the girl who had her breasts reduced as well. Some where saying she'd landed a contract as a professional idol because of her natural good looks. And to top it off, just as he was getting ready to leave school, Nabiki splashed him with a bucket of cold water, instantly transforming him into Ranko, and started leading her towards the office.
