The Comic Store Slut

If there was one place Lucy had noticed was a total hotbed for hot guys it was the comic book store in the high street. She knew next to nothing about comics, and didn't find the concept of them very appealing, but she felt the exact same way about sports, and that hadn't stopped her going to matches when she had dated footballers. If she wanted to catch quality dick, she knew where she needed to head.

Lucy's new nerd girl appearance wasn't the total success she had hoped it would be. She didn't get much unwanted attention from regular guys now, but the men in the comic store still weren't reacting to her in the way she would have liked them to. If she approached someone and initiated a conversation, by asking for recommendations on what to read, they were invariably polite and helpful but showed no signs of hitting on her. She couldn't figure out what she was doing wrong.

Eventually she spotted another young woman in one of the aisles thumbing through a colourful annual. She figured this girl was probably trying the same trick she was, since she also appeared to have adopted the tactic of dressing like a dork to fit in. Lucy decided she may be able to pick up a few helpful tips as to what she was doing wrong.

"Hey, did you come here to check out all the hot guys too?" Lucy asked conspiratorially as she sidled up.

The girl turned around in surprise, then scanned her horizons and took in the male customers that were in close proximity.

"Don't be mean" she frowned "The guys who come here are really nice people. I'm here because it's the only half decent comic book store in town"

"I wasn't being rude" Lucy explained "I think the guys in here are really cute, I just can't figure out why they aren't into me. When I did myself up I couldn't even get them to look me in the eye, now I've dressed down they are pleasant and polite but that's it. I'm not sure what type of girls they even go for"

"They kind of don't" the young woman answered.

"What? Are you saying they are into guys?" Lucy asked in dismay "They can't all be, surely?"

"No, that isn't what I meant" the woman sighed "Look, I still can't tell if you are serious or not, but if you've come here to get hit on you've picked the wrong place. The guys you'll find in this store aren't exactly players. A lot of them have probably never made a move on a girl in their life. I expect more than a few are still virgins"

"Really?" Lucy's eyes widened in astonishment "So I'd be their first? Damn that would be hot! I'd absolutely love to find myself a cute virgin here. What kind of girls are they attracted to though? If they don't like professional models and they don't like badly dressed nerds, what do they go for?"

The female comic enthusiast pinched her nose, really wishing she could just get back to her annual already.

"Try cosplay. They'll probably find you pretty hard to resist if you dress as Harley Quinn or something"

"Haley who?"

"Harley. Quinn. Seriously, what are you even doing in here?"

Lucy thanked the girl for her help and walked out of the store with this insightful intel fresh in her mind. She was about to look Harley Quinn up on her phone when she noticed her Fairy Godmother had made an unexpected reappearance.

"Hello dear! I couldn't help but overhear your conversation in the store and, as luck would have it, there is a very timely wish I can grant you that should help resolve your current predicament!"

"Oh? Which one?" Lucy asked with interest.

"You made it backstage during one of your catwalk shows a couple of years ago when you said 'I wish I didn't have to spend so much time changing costumes' Well, now you can do it in an instant!"

"What do you mean?"

"From now on, all you have to do is say what costume you would like to be wearing, and you will be transformed accordingly!"

"Seriously? So if I said I wanted to be dressed like Harley Quinn..."

Before she could even finish her sentence, Lucy was enveloped in a glittery explosion, which quickly cleared to reveal the new look she had requested.

"That's incredible! Thank you!" Lucy practically squealed as she caught her reflection in the mirror "Is this really what these guys go for though? I feel a little like a clown!"

"I suppose there is only one way to find out" Priscilla answered "Good luck, precious!"

Lucy shrugged to herself and walked back into the store.
