“How are you feeling?” She asked smiling.
I stretched and checked that everything seemed to be functioning properly. “Pretty good, I think.” I sat up cautiously and looked down.
All I could really see was my bosom. “Do you have a mirror?” I asked.
“I do in my room. Would you like to see my suite, now that you are living with me?”
“Yes please.” She showed me around. It was a beautiful area. Besides the two bedrooms, there was a large living area, with a proper bathroom. I know modern toilets don't quite fit the rest of the décor, but I am not sure people would be willing to stay a week without modern plumbing. The shower was not a shower, but a mini waterfall and it led to a carved out section that could be used as a large bath. There was also an outside courtyard that was completely private with a clear space in the middle and potted plants around the edge.
Her bedroom was a larger version of mine. There was a full mirror next to a much larger table that had a lot of documents on it and a chair. I stood in front of the mirror seeing an exact replica of Myra.
“Do you want to take your dress off and have a proper look? I can give you some privacy if you like.”
I did want to take my dress off and look and, although I was shy, I think because I was the same as Myra, I didn't mind her presence. “Yes I would like to have a look, but you don't need to leave.”
“OK.”
Still looking in the mirror I took my dress off. I still had some panties on, so I took them off too. I looked amazing. There was no hair anywhere other than my head and eyebrows. “Err.. is it usual to not have any hair down here or even under my arms?”
She came closer and looked at the mirror me rather than directly at me. “You're an elf now. We don't grow hair there.”
“Are there other things I need to know that are different between an elf and human?” I enquired.
“Well, we have a different language, that I will have to teach you. You might pick it up very quickly as you are a copy of me. We used a slight adaptation on an old spell so I'm not sure about that. Our joints are articulated a bit differently which makes us a bit more flexible. We are considerably stronger, faster and have more stamina than the average human. We can't digest animal products, they taste revolting and tend to upset our stomachs. We don't age as humans do.”
“That all sounds pretty cool. So how long do we usually live?”
“Provided nothing kills us, we live until we don't want to any more. When we have had enough we fade away.” She pointed at me. “You are not allowed to do that until long after I am gone.”
“Wow, quite an upgrade.”
“Especially the changing gender,” she replied seriously and I laughed.
“How do you manage these things,” I said, indicating my breasts. “If I run they are going to be bouncing around.”
“I have wondered why none of you adventurers wears the proper undergarments.” She went into her chest and pulled out a corset. “This is what you will need if you are going to be active. It will hold everything firmly. You can have this one.”
“Can you help me put it on?” I asked holding it like it was a poisonous snake. I had heard these things were a medieval torture device.
“Sure. You can wear it all the time if you want,” she answered with a chuckle. “Remember to put it in the chest each night for the cleaning spells to work.” She helped me into it. It was definitely a two-woman job. Now that the girls were held securely I felt a lot more comfortable, not quite what I was expecting.
“Do you have any suggestions for today?”
“Yes.” She put her hands on my shoulders and looked into my eyes. “I think you should embrace your womanhood. Allow yourself to enjoy the pleasures of the flesh. Go to their room or bring them back here. Believe me, you will have plenty of takers.”
I took a deep breath. “OK.” That was not what I expected my surrogate mother to tell me.
“Why don't we have breakfast first. Don't forget. When we leave this suite, you need to address me as high priestess and accord me the proper respect. I will have to sit at the head table so we can't sit together, I'm afraid.”
“I really appreciate everything that you have done for me. I will do my best to make you proud of me.”
“Be proud of yourself, for yourself, not me,” she said with a smile.
We left together and went to the dining hall. She then left me to go to her assigned place and I found an empty spot.
Chapter 6
Breakfast for me as well as the other elves that I noticed, consisted of fruits and nuts. Still, I found it delightful and filling. I was so much more comfortable now that I was only getting appreciative looks from other women and the men were ignoring me. I was getting suggestive looks, but no one outright asked me, so I wandered to the staging area to go adventuring.
Last time I was in a group of guys and this time I had to choose between different groups of girls. I chose one which was all elves. I hoped I would get to experience some of the cultural differences, but I don't think they acted much differently from a group of human girls. There were two warriors, Ash who used a spear and a shield, and Holly who used a double sword technique. We had a mage called Celine and she could shoot spears of ice. My job was to heal them when they started taking damage and otherwise, stay out of the way.
I don't think anyone bought this game for the adventuring aspect. We had a pleasant walk through woods and fields. The orcs and goblins that we fought got the adrenaline pumping but never seriously challenged us. None of us came close to dying. I hit it off pretty well with Celine, so when we decided to return after lunch, she started getting a bit touchy-feely.
I decided what the hell and went with it. We kissed and rubbed and really got my passion up. It was so different from all my previous experiences. How to explain it. It was a much slower build up, but it involved my whole body rather than just one area and although it slowed a bit when I lead her back to my room, it re-kindled rapidly and led to an amazing level of pleasure. Way, way better than I had ever experienced. And when I thought I was getting over that, we started again, and again, and again. I found out what Vee meant about the tongue and hands. OMG. When Celine left me, I was a puddle on the bed, blissed out. I tried to give as much as I got, but she was much more experienced than me and seemed to be a bit more dominant, directing me. I was happy to follow her instructions.
As enjoyable as it was, there was an element missing. There were a few times that I wanted it to be Vee rather than Celine. Celine was amazing, but I wasn't emotionally connected to her. I knew it wasn't healthy to want Vee, she had given me no indication that she would be interested and she only saw me when I was male, which she was not attracted to. So when that happened I tried to shut that part down. Maybe it was a female thing, but I just couldn't completely push my images of Vee away.
I must have fallen asleep and slept through dinner because the next thing I noticed was the pitch black vision that indicated I was back in the real world.
Vee still wasn't back yet. I put the headset on charge and started making a vegetable pasta. I was going to have to talk to Vee about my change in diet, I have a suspicion that it is going to be permanent. I wondered if I was vegetarian or vegan now. Then I realised that I hadn't actually tried meat in my physical body. After my experience in the game worlds, I hadn't really fancied it.
I cooked some bacon, just one piece, made some scrambled egg, a bit of butter on toast, some milk and a piece of cheese. I needed to find out just what I was able to eat. Normally the smell of bacon cooking is a mouth-watering experience, today, I had to open a window to keep the smell down. I didn't want to jump to any conclusions, but let's just say the bacon test was not looking good. I put a small piece in my mouth and tried to chew. Within seconds I had to spit it out and then rinse my mouth with water. I guess meat is out. The egg was not on the same level, but I didn't enjoy it. My guess is that I could probably tolerate it in small quantities. The butter, milk and cheese wer
e fine. Thank goodness. All I really had to cut out was meat. I wondered about fish, but I had nothing on hand to test so that would have to wait, or maybe I could just ask the high priestess, Myra.
I heard the keys in the lock followed by “Hi honey, I'm home.”
“Hi Vee, I'm in the kitchen,” I responded.
She came through with a large box in her hands and a massive smile on her face. “I've bought you a present.”
The box wasn't wrapped so I could see immediately what it was. “Vee, one of those costs the same as a small car.”
“Don't worry, I'm not giving you this one. You get my old one and I get this one.”
“Have they come out with a new version or upgraded it somehow?”
“No. It's the same, but this one is pink. Look, I have enough money and in the not too distant future, I am going to have a lot more. And I did this for me, not for you. I really like the idea of going together and seeing the girl you.”
I sighed. I really hated when you gave a gift to someone and they disrespected it somehow and made you feel shit for giving it. “This really is too much.” Then I smiled. “But you know what. I really want to go and enjoy Lagbit's World together too.”
“Yay. I will go and set it up and put it on charge. We may have to wait a couple of hours before we can use it. I asked about connecting the two at the shop. Whenever we enter VDR we are essentially creating our own world. Even the characters behave differently, because of how we perceive them. In order for us to join together, I will have to enter your world. I will become a new character in your world rather than joining the 2 different worlds together. I am fine with that. I have never really entered the game to level up or anything.”
“No, I know precisely why you have been going there,” I answered with a knowing smile.
“That sounds like the voice of experience. You've already had a turn haven't you,” she answered with a unrepentant look. I blushed, which seemed to be enough confirmation. “You have. Did you take my advice and try an elf girl?”
“Err...Let me just get this food down before you start your inquisition. Now on a dietary front, I have discovered that my taste is now mimicking my VDR elf taste. I can't eat any meat. I am not sure about fish and I seem OK with dairy. Thus, vegetable pasta. I did cook a slice of bacon that I can cut up and add to your dish if you wish.”
She grinned at me. “Nice change of subject. Yes, I would like the bacon in mine. You do that and I will set this thing up, then we are going to have a talk, girl.”
She rushed off with her box while I was still pondering how I felt about her calling me girl. I shrugged my shoulders. It didn't upset me, nor did it feel that jarring. I put the dinner on the table. I don't know why I felt like it, but the meal didn't feel quite complete until I had found a vase with a fake flower in it and 2 glasses with a bottle of white wine. Luckily she came back before I could decide to start a search for some candles.
“Very nice,” she said, looking at the table arrangement. She had changed out of her everyday clothes into a little black dress and I could tell she had redone her make up to really make her eyes pop. She had these gorgeous blue eyes that had a ring of lighter blue around the edge of her pupil. Her long dark brown hair had been brushed out and was now hanging halfway down her back. It looked so shiny, healthy and soft that I had to resist the urge to run my fingers through it.
“Very nice to you too. Do you want me to go and change? With you looking so glamorous, I feel like I have dressed down.”
She looked me over with a smile on her face. “I don't think I have any dresses that would fit you. Let's eat. Then you can tell me all about your latest trip in VDR. Remember, girls can be quite detailed in their sexual descriptions and I want to hear everything.”
I swallowed hard. Rather than answering I started eating. Every time I looked up, she met my eyes. What on earth was I getting myself into, I wondered. Still, it felt exciting. There is only so long that you can use food as a distraction. Eventually, the food is gone and you are expected to carry on a conversation.
I think she worked out that I was struggling to talk about it, so she started. “So, what was her name?”
“Err...Celine.” I smiled a bit awkwardly.
“Was she an elf?”
“Yes, an elf mage.”
“So you went adventuring. Now, did you approach her or did she approach you.”
I had to think about that. “She approached me.”
“What did she look like?”
So I went through a description as detailed as I could. Then the big question.
“What did you think?” she asked.
“From a pleasure point of view, it was amazing. Better than I could have ever imagined. I definitely think girls have more fun in the bedroom,” I admitted looking down in embarrassment.
She put her finger under my chin to force me to look her in the eyes. “And from the non-pleasure point of view?”
I sighed. “She was great, don't get me wrong. I just felt it was lacking on an emotional front.”
“You are such a girl,” she said with a laugh. “Can you hear yourself? If a guy had the most amazing sex in his life, do you think he would care about the emotional aspect?”
“Not most guys admittedly. But I think when I was a guy, I would have.” I just realised that I was putting my guy self in the past even though, here I was, sitting like a guy. Weird.
She smiled brilliantly. I don't think that slip went unnoticed. “Now I want to get a bit personal.”
“Are you saying what we have been discussing wasn't?”
She waved that off with her hands. “In most relationships, one of you tends to be more dominant than the other. It doesn't have to be extremes with handcuffs and whips, but usually one directs and one follows. Which were you?”
“A follower.” At the time I thought that was because I had less experience, but now thinking about it, it was more about wanting to please my partner.
“And how do you feel about that. It suggests you are slightly submissive, at least sexually.”
I pondered that for a bit. As a guy being in any way submissive would be considered a bad thing. Being honest with myself, when I was a guy, my shyness with girls was probably evidence of the same thing. There I was again, thinking of being a guy as a past thing. “Err... I don't think I have a problem with it. I liked someone else taking control. I don't think I would have liked Celine asking me to do anything I didn't want to do. In fact, I would have refused, but everything she suggested seemed a good idea. And what about you?” I said, trying to turn the tables.
“Me? I am a bit dominant. I tend to be the one to approach and start off the action. I like deciding what to do and I don't mind if I am refused. So not majorly dominant. Like you are not strongly submissive, just a bit.”
Perfect for each other is what I was thinking, but, that could not be said. Let's face it. My mental image may have become female, but I was still physically a man and that would not interest a lesbian. Vee was not for me, despite my yearnings.
The new VDR headset was not charged yet so we both did our different projects while we waited. I was ahead of my Uni work was now fleshing out the idea I had previously about clothing. The first thing was to work out how inputting measurements could result in a fairly accurate avatar. This was most likely to be exclusively for women so I started studying women's shapes and working out how many measurements and where I would need to work out what shape they would be.
I did cheat sometimes in my efforts to make money. Never on any work related to my University degree. This was such a potentially big project that I felt the need for help. There was someone in India who I paid for doing some programming tasks. I would give an outline of what I wanted, I would get a quote, which considering the work involved was ludicrously cheap by western standards and if I gave the go-ahead the work would be done and sent to me. Usually pretty quickly. I sent an outline of what I wanted.
Since I wanted to stop
there, I went to check on Vee. She was studying some lines in her room. As soon as she saw me, she jumped up leaving the book behind and checked the charging dock.
“It's ready. Shall we give it a go?”
Chapter 7
We lay together on Vee's double bed, holding each other's hand with the helmet on. My headset had the game loaded and my option was resume yes or no. Vee's had 'join yes or no' and she had already pressed yes and was just waiting for me. The chances were we would wake in bed in different rooms and it could be awkward finding each other, so we had agreed to meet at breakfast.
Whoever got there first would save a seat for the other. She knew what the high priestess looked like and I knew what she looked like so there shouldn't be a problem. The high priestess herself had a special dress, white with gold edging, so the distinction between us should be clear. I selected yes and allowed the helmet to do its thing.
