15 - Making the best of an awkward situation

Hey, guys, you know if you need clothes Bianca doesn't need a special office to make or adjust them, right? Just thought I'd remind you all. And I've got some of my sister's clothes if anybody needs 'em. Men's clothes are way easier.

[ Steph knows exactly who she was yesterday, but giving it away right at the start wouldn't be any fun, now would it? Still, she's happy to lend out her clothes and make adjustments so that she has something to wear too. ]

If you don't have anything to wear to pick up new clothes, lemme know. I'll bring you a towel, if nothing else.

And try not to get too excited about your new bodies. They're temporary, remember? [ Side-eyeing you, John. ]

[What the fuck.]

Your... sister.

[Translation: bullshit.]

[ Shhhh Cassie shhhhh ]

Yeah, Becka. I talk about her all the time. Still in high school?

[She purses her lips.

She watches Steph with a very unimpressed look for a very long time.

And then she sighs and switches over to private. Your secret is safe.]

Why lie? What's the point?

[ She never really thought she could fool you, Cass. ]

Call it a new perspective. It's not like I'm going to do anything really bad, just have some fun! [ And she does mean it, really. If things start to get troublesome she'll stop. She doesn't want to actually hurt anyone. ]

This is fun? Pretending to be a boy?

[She's not really one to talk since she was perfectly fine with people assuming she was Batman when it was too dark to tell otherwise, but she never pretended. She was going to be Batman one day, it was practice.]

I'm not pretending! I have the junk to prove it.

[ Steph why are you proud of this ]

[And why are you telling Cass about your junk? Nothing about this makes sense.]

Guess we know... you're enjoying yourself, then.

[ WOW WAY TO MAKE ASSUMPTIONS, CASS. ]

Not like that!

[That takes her a second.]

Tricking people. Not... that.

[Not that she'd necessarily blame Steph for testing out the equipment or anything.]

[ Welp, guess that makes Steph the pervert. Oh well, what else is new? ]

It's interesting. And it's not hurting anyone.

[Steph is the pervert, but now Cass is thinking about what her new dick might look like so at least they're on the same page.]

No, you're not. You wouldn't.

[See, she still has faith in you. Always there will be faith that Stephanie will do the right thing.]

Picked a name, yet?

Well, Jack - Bianca, I mean - already let the "Stephen" cat out of the bag. It'd be weird if I tried to change it now.

Stephen. Would have... made for different dynamic duo, I think.

[Now that she's imagining what things would have been like if Stephanie had been Stephen the whole time, it's... kind of odd. Sneaking into his room, the time spent half naked and training together. It all would have been a vastly different ballgame then.

Maybe she never would have had to jump a train to Smallville to visit Superboy. Not with a very male Robin to-

No. That's a thought that needs to stop right there.]

Batgirl and Robin? It's practically a tradition.

[ Wait. Steph wait. No. Stop that train of thought before it even starts, because you're already starting to get some embarrassing side-effects. Dead puppies, dead puppies, dead puppies... ]

I mean, it would be pretty much the same I think. Yeah, totally the same.
