Girls' night out!

"I want to go out, but do you mind if I tweak the concept a bit?" Tori asked, as she took you by the shoulders and guided you to the bathroom mirror.

You looked yourself carefully over, realizing that you only had the same body shape as Andrea from the neck down. Your hair color had slightly changed, and your face looked like you'd adopted quite a few of your own facial features in the mix, looking more like what perhaps a child you might have had with Andrea would look like. "...Huh, that's interesting. I'm kind of a stranger that I'd feel like I might recognize from somewhere..." You shivered a little. You felt that the Andrea side of you didn't like seeing her dressed in the bleached clothes, preferring her neat and tidy styles. But, you suppressed her feelings as you turned back to a grinning Tori. "What's your thought?"

"Girls' night!" Tori said, shimmying her hips to really emphasize her words. "I bet Andrea is really good at those, she's got that big network of friends from the city, right? All through high school it was pretty much just us doing everything, then I had a little bit of fun in college until the curse came in. After that, I sort of had to, y'know, keep some distance from people. But! I'm actually suddenly very intrigued by the idea of taking our friendship into new territory. How often do friends like us get the chance to see things from new social perspectives? This will only make us closer, in new ways. Gosh, I don't think any two people have been able to be so well-connected as us!"

You blink, running a finger through your hair. If this were a typical Hollywood movie with the same plot, you would probably be screaming your head of by now. But you merely pondered for a moment, and nodded. "Yeah... yeah. Okay. But!" You reached into Tori's rear pants pocket, pulling out Andrea's wallet as Tori yelped in a bit of surprise at the touch. "I'm paying."

Tori grinned. "Deal. As you said, this is a lesson in curses. And curses can be expensive. I'm lucky I don't just constantly ruin all my clothes when I channel something that makes me a different size. ...Speaking of." Tori took off her fleece jacket and shirt underneath, both technically Andreas, but those garments fit her well enough. It was the bra underneath that was a cupsize too small, so she unclasped that and handed it over.

You gulped, glancing at Tori, looking at her chest. Even if Andrea wasn't exactly interested in Tori's body, you certainly were! She might have normally been shy about this, but seeing as you both were women at the moment, she didn't seem to mind, especially as you removed your shirt again to reveal Andrea's body.

"Hey, um, how exactly does attraction work in a channeling?" you asked, hastily donning the bra. It felt so much better to have some support on your chest, though that seemed like that was more Andrea's personal preference bleeding through, as you'd never had to concern yourself with such things before.

Tori tapped her chin. "Like most things, it's additive, and sometimes can result in some unique emergent traits. Like, if you like girls, but Andrea likes guys, you'll probably find yourself attracted to both. Which... would explain your staring." With a grin and a wink, Tori steps away, picking up a bra of her own that had been bleach stained, but she didn't mind that since once it was on, she put on Andrea's shirt and jacket once again, checking herself out with the clothing swap. "Now with relationship partners, things might get interesting! I think attitudes changed with you and Andrea so this might not apply to you anymore, but let's take our case. Because I'm attracted to you, I assume you're attracted to me, so that would be two minds attracted to the same body that we're in, it might be hard to get over ourselves!"

That could be interesting. Honestly, as you looked at yourself in the mirror, since you were encased in Andrea's comfort in her own body, everything felt natural. Being able to do the same via Tori might be really exciting! But, one step at a time. For now, you were...

"Hey, uh, what should I call myself if we're going out and about?" You asked.

Thinking for a moment, Tori seemed to get a bright idea while you put your shirt back on. "What about Petra? Pretty close to Pete, and even though Andrea's name is on her cards you could just say it's your middle name or something if anyone asks. Sound good?"

You nodded. It was a little weird, the knowledge that you were going to wander town with a new identity and existence, when people knew you as Peter but now would treat you like a stranger! Glancing over at Tori, she smiled. "Put that Andrea brain to use, what's the first thing she would do with her friends in town? Are we gonna go to a stylist? Something with our nails? Massages? Find some expensive chocolates?" Tori glanced back at your clothes. "After, uh, we find something a little better suited for going around town. Maybe Andrea would have some extra clothes in her car if she was going to come up here for a wine tasting weekend."
