Uniqua's Growing Up

[artemis]

Let's get the ball rolling

(For the sake of purity, i ask that people not involved in this not to post in this topic. Only uni, juli, ed and myself please.)

[juli]

ok, I'm ready when you are....

[Uniqua]

Just got in here. I'm in a message board!

[artemis]

Welcome Let's let the good times roll! I beleive you're the one to kick this thing off uni.

[Uniqua]

Workload is heavy today, so I will be slow to respond and it will always be between talking to someone. Crazy but neat

[artemis]

As it's play by post we don't need to do all of it at this moment, it can be added on to during the week.

[Uniqua]

(sorry, on the phone with someone functionally illiterate)

The changes became concrete over the course of the walk. First were her eyes, which came to closely resemble those she was born with, a flashing gold behind eyelids that now are often half-lowered.
Her hair became a writhing mass that descended to the ground, and slowly bound itself up into a tight braid hanging near the small of her back, bangs descending to brush her shoulders. By the inconsistent light of the sun, its hue wavered between light greens and jet black.
Her skin roughened and darkened, sword-callouses covering her hands and a scar parting her right eyebrow
Her form grew until she stood a full head and a half above her previous stature and her body thickened proportionate to this change.
As anticipated, her bust also increased over the course of the journey, though not by anywhere near as much as Art's jokes might have implied.
With that the visible changes were done, and she asked her companions in a richer, deeper voice, whether and what they thought.

[artemis]

*gives a low appreciative whistle*
"Wow..."
*taking a few minutes to look you over a little more carefully*"Not going to include the scar on your arm?"*seeming like it's only a partial suggestion, before grinning*"I wouldn't mind Cat's ears and tail, but I think that's more my want then what would actually suit you"*he teases*

[Uniqua]

"Maybe, I'm working with the changes that everyone will be seeing first. And I'm sure we can find a way to accommodate your other suggestion...later. Still, either we've become better known or this world has become much safer. This has been a relaxing journey."

[artemis]

"We're a dragon, an immortal highly magical wildling, and a possible demi-god or godling...I think everything in a wide radius has run for the hills already. Anyway, you look stunning Uni"*as he hugs her*"And I know I'm going to get blamed at first for your changing"*whispering*

[Uniqua]

*grins a very carnivorous grin* "They can blame the sky if they want to. Besides, you're not entirely without blame."

[artemis]

*chuckles and eases the hug, though puts his arm arround your waist*"Well, this is easier with you this tall now. What changes did I inspire?"

[Uniqua]

"I'd like to say my fierce complexion, but mostly the larger breasts."

[artemis]

*chuckles a little*"Well you're about the same as non-super Jenna. It makes you look older without looking overly sexualized like some of the girls on board."*as he reaches into a pocked on his robe and takes out a set of measuring tape*"May I? I want to make sure you're new outfit fit's properly"

[juli]

*walks a bit behind, looking a little awed and uncomfortable*

[artemis]

*looks back*"Something wrong Anna?"

[Uniqua]

*Chuckles* "Sorry about that Anna, this was a little side project I was going to be doing while we walked. Mostly, what I was hoping to do was learn about refugees and other people who've lost their homes from yourself and Artemis."

*takes a few steps back and touches Anna's shoulder lightly* "Have I offended you?"

[artemis]

*silently waits for Anna's reply, curious what exactly is on her mind*

[juli]

*shakes her head* "I'm not offended, but this seems to be a bit...well...personal. I don't want to get in the way"

[Uniqua]

*Laughs* That's because it is personal. It is the body I'll be wearing for the next little while. Which is not to say that it's private. Besides. My social circles are very incestuous and a new take on the products of my thoughts and ideas of personal aesthetic can't help but be good for me.

[artemis]

*Grins at Anna*"Did you really want me being the only contributing voice to your leader's body. You aparently don't know me very well either...."*chuckling*"Seriously though, you're not tagging along, Uni invited you specifically."

[juli]

*chuckles softly* "ok then..." *looks at Uni critically* "it's a good look for you I think. Can you change that at will?"

[Uniqua]

"Thanks. And yes, I can change it at will. Any suggestions?"

[juli]

*shakes her head* "I don't really know you well enough to make a suggestion. "

[artemis]

*grins*"I have another. Why not let your draconic features shine threw? Maybe keep your wings and tail with this body? Smaller versions of course"

[Uniqua]

*After a few seconds, spines and horns start growing from Uniqua's neck and head(as well as down her back). A few short spines grow near her eyebrows.*

"I think that looks about right. I don't think I could bear to wear tiny wings and a miniature tail though. A girl has to keep her pride."

*Uniqua tidies her hair around her new crown of horns*

"On more important matters, I was wondering what experience you've both had with people forcibly ejected or fleeing from their homeland. Have you met any?"

[artemis]

*watches the change and ponders it for a moment*"Well, we used to deal with some during the circus, but I have only seen them from afar. There are people back at two moons that process them and deals with integrating them into the town might be able to offer better insight. "

[Uniqua]

"Oh! That's a great idea. Of course there would be people in reasonably enlightened societies who would go out of their way to help people like that enjoy living in a new home and getting over losses."

"I may just visit there after we finish up with today's outing."

[artemis]

"Well, what do you want to do with this outing? Now that you seem to have found your outer self?"

[Uniqua]

"If neither of you have any other experience or ideas, I suggest we make our way to Center. That way, we can learn about those galaxies' political climates. Who knows, we might even find something good. While we're doing that, maybe I can get to know you, Anna. How'd you wind up here, anyhow?"
