Scouting the School in Disguise

Too bad for Valdez/Lauryn Claudia read everything that she needed to know in Mercedes shocked expression before she could compose herself. Not that she let it show though.
"Uhm hi Lauryn... Claudia," Mercedes said a little uncomfortable and uncertain, looking from one to the other, "Can I help you...?"
"Hi Mercedes, as you can see Lauryn is in need of some more feminine clothes," Claudia answered not feeling like small talk anymore, "I was hoping that you two would have at least a similar size and that you could borrow her some of her clothes?"
When Mercedes nodded and said something along the lines of 'sure' Claudia smiled and nodded as well.
"Okay then I'll just leave you too it then." Claudia said and gave a small salute as goodbye before walking out of the room and closing the door behind her.

Lauryn couldn't help but pull a face as Claudia said she figured she and Mercedes had about the same size. Great, he groaned inside his head, I've got the same size as the woman I'm doing...

But then he got distracted by the great hurry Claudia was in. He couldn't help but feel a little suspicious about the speed at which she suddenly excluded herself from the situation. He didn't get much time to linger on it though, as she had already left the room before he right and well realized it.

Now she stood opposite Mercedes, feeling extremely self-aware and awkward. "Uhm... so..." she started. But then he decided to first turn back into himself, before going into any kind of talk with her. He took off the ring in a bit of a hasty, embaressed gesture, after which he turned back into himself*.

* At which point he remembered that he'd tightened his belt a little while earlier, to keep it from flapping around his waist uncomfertably. Now that his waist had expanded to a it's normal size, his organs nearly popped out of his nose (ok, that's a bit overboard but he did find his belt to be very uncomfertably tight.

Mercedes was very uncomfortable standing in her room with a female version of the man she was in love with. She let out a sigh of relief when he took of a ring and turned back into himself again. She smiled at him as she gestured for him to take a seat on the bed besides her.
"Explain," she said, meaning for him to tell her why he had been a she.

A small laugh escaped Valdez' mouth as Mercedes asked him to explain; perhaps it was the way she asked it, or perhaps just the awkwardness of the situation... Either way, he sat down on the bed next to her, an ambigious expression on his face, as he wondered where to begin.

"I asked Maudre for an illusion spell, so I could walk around this place without being recognized," he told her, "it's in this ring," and he held up the ring for her to see.
"I'd just put it on to see it's effects when Claudia walked in and... well..." He scraped his throat and looked away, still ill at ease and hoping Mercedes' reaction wouldn't be too bad.

Mercedes was glad when Valdez sat down next to her and took the ring from him to study it more closely. Not really understanding magic in the least, it looked so much like a normal everyday ring. A part of her was curious to what would happen if she would put the ring on.
"Well you do need clothes that go with your disguise..." she mused, "You want to try and see if Claudia was right?"
She held out the ring for him, leaving the choice to him whether or not he wanted to find out now or save it for a later moment.

Valdez looked at the ring a little hessitantly, then sighed and put it back on. As some fine bodily curves had formed, he got up and looked down at his body for a moment,then up at Mercedes with an awkward expression; "somehow this is extremely uncomfertable when I'm near you."

He then didn't know what more to say. Asking her about seeing her clothes would really just make him feel to embaressed. Already being a bit homophobic to start with, asking his lover/girlfriend/whatever-they-exactly-are if she had anything nice for him to wear was going a little bit of a lot too far.

Standing up along with Valdez, Mercedes very much not really looked at him. Him being a her made her uncomfortable as well, even though she didn't have any homophobia issues. Instead she just rummaged through her bag for a dress that would pretty much fit anyone of similar lenght and build as her. It wasn't exactly a flattering dress, but it was an easy dress. She handed it to him/her without really looking and without saying a word. Then she fully turned her back on him/her not because she was uncomfortable with seeing another woman undress. But because she was uncomfortable seeing her lover/boyfriend/something undress while looking like a woman.

Valdez- I mean, Lauryn(!) took the dress from Mercedes and held it out in front of her - at an arms lenght distance, as if it was some weird or suspicious object that she'd rather not have anything to do with.

She looked at it for a moment, an aggrieved frown on her face, then looked past it at Mercedes who was standing with her back towards her. She wanted to say something at first, but finally just sighed, put the dress on the bed and started changing.

This was quite an oddly confronting procedure. At the stage where she'd undressed almost all of her upper body, to the point where her torso was only covered by a shirt, she hessitated to go any further. Already being wildly uncomfertable with the general shape of her breasts being very visable through the thin fabric, she wasn't at all sure how she'd feel being completely bare.

She inhaled deeply, then let out a deep sigh, and then very hastily took her shirt off. With a quick gesture she threw it on the ground somewhere and hurried to the dress, which she quickly put on. As such, not even 10 seconds later she stood there with the dress on, her trousers still underneath them. To her disappointment keeping the trousers on wasn't really an option, as it was very clearly visable underneath the dress. So she reluctantly started taking those off too, being very careful to avoid confrontation with her lady parts.

Finally she pulled everything right and straight, made sure none of her hair - which was longer now than when she was a man, for some reason - was stuck inside her dress, and with lacking enthusiasm asked: "well...?"

Mercedes calmly and very uncomfortably waited for Lauryn to put on the dress. When she said 'well' she took a deep breath and turned around. Her expression betraying that she didn't wanted to see this.
She gave Lauryn a quick up and down and then nodded in approval, the dress looked decent on her.
"It's good," she said, "could you now please take off the dress and the ring off...?"
She turned her back to Lauryn so that she could change clothes and sex.

Lauryn frowned at Mercedes reaction; (s)he could understand why she didn't like it - (s)he wasn't a big fan himself - but (s)he somehow failed to see why she minded this much.

"This really makes you uncomfertable, doesn't it?" she aksed, a small grin forming on her face, her tone betraying she was starting to find this amusing.

Knowing Valdez and with that Lauryn long enough to know that (s)he was planning something Mercedes turned around with a raised brow. She looked straight into her eyes, they where the one thing that had stayed the same and the one thing that had betrayed his disguise.
"Either you physically turn yourself back into a man," she said in a no nonsense tone, "or I'll put you in a corset and I'm not gentle when tightening a corset."

Valdez (I mean, Lauryn... I mean Valdez... ugh, both of them, I guess?) felt a little confronted at first, when Mercedes looked her straight in the eyes. But then came the threat of the corset, something that made less than the (probably) intended impression; instead of taking of the ring Lauryn just let out an entertained and slightly taunting chuckle; "o really..?"

She wasn't impressed, for starters, because she knew herself to be stronger than Mercedes, even in this female body. Also, as being a male previous to that moment, she had no idea how agonizing a corset could be - in as much that he'd heard women complain about them, but decided they were just making a scene.
But then he realized this probably wouldn't count as a good situation to upset Mercedes.

"Fine," he sighed, "turn around then, I'll change."

On the one hand Mercedes was a little dissapointed that she couldn't put Valdez in a corset. But she was more glad that he was going to look like himself again. So she turned around rummaging through her bag again, just in case she needed to put Valdez, him being who he is, in a corest after all.

As Mercedes turned around so Valdez could change, (s)he sighed and started working his way out of the dress. Before (s)he even had the one arm out of its sleeve though, (s0he had the irrisitable urge to do something (s)he knew was probably unwise (a tendency that always seems to characterize him).

As a grin formed on her face, she snuck over to Mercedes with the soundless stealth one can only expect from a dark-haired vampire. She put her arms around her from behind, the one around her waist and the other over her shoulder, Mercedes' chin clenched carefully between her fingers. Like that she kept her head straight, looking forward, as she placed a rather sensual kiss on her cheek.

The second Lauryn came up so close against Mercedes she tensed all over. She tried to move away, but Lauryn's grip around her and especially her chin where as solid as Valdez's. It didn't kept her from trying to squirm her way out of it. In the end she decided to just elbow her in the gut seeing as Valdez no longer had any physical balls.
Her hands where itching to put Lauryn in a corset and pulling it as tight as possible. But with that 'small' demonstration of how much stronger Lauryn was then her. So instead she got a better idea, getting the ring from her. Turning around the second Lauryn let go of her enough she reached for the hand with the ring. Hoping to succeed before Lauryn would realise what she was doing.

Lauryn let out an uncomfertable cough as Mercedes ellbowed her in the gut; it didn't reall hurt, per say, but nice was different. In a matter of seconds, she was back to grinning amused at Mercedes' discomfort though.
"Aw," he said in a very unconvincing sad tone, clearly repressing a chuckle, "you treat me so coldly..."

She didn't really notice Mercedes going for the ring in the mean time; she figured Mercedes was just trying to grab her hand, or wrist, or something, to try and push her off. Taking the ring off probably wouldn't take much effort anyway, as the ring sat a little loosely around Lauryn's thin female finger - as a contrast to Valdez' ringfinger on which it fitted perfectly.

Only getting ticked off farther Mercedes grabbed Lauryn's hand fast. Fearing that Lauryn would see through her plan any second now she grabbed the ring as fast as the could manage and pulled off her finger. With the ring in her hand she took several steps away from Valdez, holding the her hand with the ring behind her back.

Lauryn did see through the plan now, but too late. She tried to clench her hand into a fist, making it impossible for the ring to be slid off her finger but - even with vampiric speed on her side - she'd simply noticed too late to prevent it from happening.

As she was no longer wearing the ring, she became a he again, with all the size-differences that brought; it was a good thing the dress Mercedes had given was adjustable in size, because if it hadn't been it would've surely ripped - at the shoulders and the chest at least. Instead it stretched along, leaving Valdez to stand there in Mercedes bedroom wearing an uncomfertably tight-looking dress.

He looked down at himself confused for a moment, then up at Mercedes a little angrily; "give it back," he said (not raising his voice though, as he didn't feel like anyone coming in right now). As he asked (READ: demanded) this, he extended his arm, hand held up for Mercedes to hand the ring over. Making this gesture caused an unpleasent tearing noise from the dress though, hinting that if he would stretch it further it would surely be shredded. So first Valdez took off the dress and threw it aside, leaving him standing there in nothing but his underwear - still better than a dress though, he figured.

Admittedly Mercedes got a little distracted when she first saw Valdez in a dress and shortly after that in his underwear. It didn't made him look all that impressive, nor strenghten his 'request'.
"No," she answered with possibly more ease then if he where fully dressed, "I'm not going to give you the ring as long as you are in my room. Not if you are only going to use it to make me uncomfortable for your own entertainment."

At first Valdez wanted to argue that any kind of item would have little value to him if he couldn't use it to make people feel ill at ease... but then he decided against that.
For starters because he figured it wouldn't help him much, but also because he actually did feel somewhat lacking dominance now that he was practically nude. So instead he just sighed (though he first picked up his trousers from the floor and put them back on) in a dissatisfied tone; "fine. I'll play nice, ok?"

He extended his hand once more; "now can I have it back?"

Mercedes raised a brow at him in disbelieve. Did the man really think she was stupid? Even if he did mean he was going to 'play nice' for the moment sooner or later he would 'tease' her again with the help of the ring.
"No," she said still holding her hand behind her back, feeling a lot like a teacher with an unruly student, "you can have it back when you leave my room. It's not like you'll be needing it before anyway."

Valdez raised a brow back at her, a very dark look on his face. Like that he stepped over to her, his angry gaze unaverted.
Then, when he was just in front of her - less than a feet away - he grinned and said in a soft vioce; "has anyone ever told you that you look incredibly beautiful when you act bossy?" He put his hands on her upper arms, stroking them gently with his thumbs.

((ik ben echt inspiratieloos XD))

Mercedes took a deep breath, steadying herself for whatever hell she had summoned upon herself as Valdez walked over to her. She relaxed when he grinned at her and his thumbs stroked her upper arms. She smiled and gave him a light peck on the lips, stroking his cheek with her free hand.
"That's really sweet of you, but it's not going to get you the ring back."

At that Valdez tightened his grip on Mercedes' arms a little more, and steered her to walking backwards, until she had her back against the wall. When there, he grinned a naughty (READ: *censored term*) grin as he replied; "good. As you said, I don't need in while I'm in here..." then in a whisper he added, as his hands slid over her body, "not for this..."

((all the nice children should stop reading now :3))

((censor the skip the skip skipper the skip censor))
Laying in the bed. Clothes tossed all around the floor and the sex change ring on the nightstand beside the bed.
Mercedes let out a small sigh and traced the lines of Valdez' muscles. She was glad that he had stopped teasing her with the sex change ring. She liked him much better when he was just being kind to her.
"No more using the ring around me," she said, "except of course when we are in the hallways or something. Okay?"
