"Thank you for your help, Ms. Mia," Gen said politely as the woman left the room.? He then looked to Akira, a little uncertain.? "So... I guess the school store is next?? I could use some clothes.? All I've got is what I've got on right now."? He chewed his lip a bit.? "Most of the stuff is easy, but could use some special shirts? For, like, when I grow wings to fly with?" ? "And I could use some other things. Girl things.? For when..."? The androgyne sighed.? "If we're going to be roomies, you might as well know.? This is something else I can do."? He closed his eyes and concentrated, and his body and face began shifting, his breasts growing more prominent, his hips more curved, his features softer and more feminine.? He opened his eyes and looked for Akira's reaction.? "Is it okay?" he asked, anxious but hopeful. ? (Akira) Akira also thanked Mia as she left. "Yep, guess so. I figured if you were on the run, you didn't have much." Then he watched as the boy before him shifted and became a girl. "Well, interesting. Not sure what purpose being able to change from male to female would play in your creation, but yes it's okay." Then Akira gave him a wink, "I prefer the other form of you."

"I was primarily designed for the exploration and possible colonization of other worlds.? So in addition to needing to be adaptable to a number of extreme environments, I was also designed to be adaptable to, well, the needs of my fellow explorers or colonists." She shrugged a bit awkwardly.? "I know how that must sound, but it was really a matter of practicality.? To insure the success of the mission.? And the survival of the colony if it was a colonization mission."
?
At Akira's wink and comment, Gen concentrated and shifted back into her male state, her breasts disappearing, her face and frame becoming more masculine.? "Is this better?" he asked.? "I... I kinda sensed you preferred male to female, but I didn't want to assume."

(Akira) Akira was a bit taken aback when Gen said that he more or less could be used to help colonize a place. "Well, glad you didn't have to be used that way." He said as he stood and gathered up their trays of dishes and walked them to the window where that sort of things would be taken care of.
He turned to Gen at that point, "so, ready to go and do some shopping? The campus store is quite large and we can find most anything we might need or want there."

"Sure," Gen replied eagerly.? "I've never really been shopping before.? I mean, I've been in stores, but I never had any actual money.? Most of the time, if there was anything I needed, I had to scrounge around for it.? It's amazing what some people will toss out.? I've got a bunch of stuff back at the lighthouse that I found going through trashcans and dumpsters."
?
"There'll probably be books and stuff that I'll need, yes?" he asked.? "Will the store have, like, a list I can go by, for the courses and stuff?? And I'm guessing I'll need a laptop too, maybe? And what about clothes?? I have what I've got on, and stuff I've scrounged, but I don't know what's good or appropriate." He glanced at Akira uncertainly.? "Can you help me with that?"

(Akira) Akira slipped his arm around Gen's shoulders, "slow down there, friend. Let's just start with your basic needs. Clothes, stuff for showering and what not. Then we can figure out the classes and stuff. Most of the regular classes have the books already in them. We don't get them from the store. Yes, I will gladly help you with clothing." He said with a smile as they entered the store that wasn't that far from the cafeteria. Tag: Gen

Gen tensed when Akira slipped his arm around Gen's shoulders, confused by the gesture.? Did it mean anything?? Or was it just a casual platonic gesture that a normal person would make to a new acquaintance? .Why did it have to feel so good?? The androgyne just wanted to melt into the embrace, to increase the amount of bodily contact, to soak up the warmth he could feel coming through the thin garments they were wearing.? And Akira's off-hand comments about "stuff for showering" and "help you with clothing" were, however innocent, stirring fantasies in his head.? But the signals he had picked up earlier had made him think that the other boy wasn't "that way".??
?
Walking into the store prompted Gen to focus again.? He knew that he'd been given some kind of credit with the store and so could actually purchase some things, so he started paying attention to the clothes on display.? And on the toiletries he might possibly need.? "Does this look good?" he asked, looking at a combination of green pants and orange shirt that caught his eye.? "And does this stuff make you smell good?" he asked, picking up a bottle of strawberry-scented shampoo from a nearby shelf.? "I want to, you know, smell good," he said, looking self-consciously to Akira for his opinion.

(Akira) Akira kind of chuckled at Gen with the color choices, "um....not together, but sure those colors are good. Maybe a black or white top with the green pants and blue jeans or something like a brown for pants for the orange shirt." He suggested. "How do you normally dress?" He asked curiously as he moved to the strawberry scented shampoo. "Sure, it makes a girl's hair smell good. But you don't come across as someone who would like to smell like fruit."

"Normally?" Gen had to think about it.? "Normally I wear whatever I've got or whatever I can find.? Stuff that people have lost or thrown away.? I never really had money to buy stuff before.? I try to wear stuff that I see other people wearing, but it gets confusing sometimes.? Some clothes seem to have meaning to them that I'm not aware of.? ? Uniforms, for example.? I've learned to avoid uniforms.? Police, fire department, EMT's, even hospital workers.? People keep expecting me to know things that I don't know and wanting me to do things that I don't know how to do.? So I try to look as ordinary and uninteresting as possible."
?
"Are girls supposed to smell different from boys?" the androgyne asked, curious once again.? "If something smells good on a boy, shouldn't it also smell good on a girl?? Or does it have something to do with attraction?? I have noticed that some boy smells induce attraction even though they're completely different from girl smells that also induce attraction." Without thinking, he leaned in close and sniffed at the other boy's neck.? "Kind of like you do."? Realizing he might be crossing some proximity no-no, he quickly backed up and looked apologetic.? "Sorry.? I keep forgetting."
?
Looking at a pair of black jeans, Gen turned and showed them to Akira.? "Are these okay?? And how do you know if they'll fit?? Do you have to try them on?"

(Akira) "Well, you at least have figured out how to dress like others. That is a start. Good thing that we don't have to wear uniforms here. So, let's do this, you pick out stuff that you find interesting. We will put it all in this basket and then figure it out from there. And yes, there is a fitting room or rather a place we go and try on the clothes."

(Akira) Akira chuckled, "of course girls are supposed to smell different from boys. All that sciency stuff and you were not taught about pheromones. Interesting." He giggled when Gen sniffed his neck, "that is fine. And I am not wearing anything like cologne or after shave. We all put off our own smells. Some are nice and some are not so nice. Some people just down right stink," he wrinkled his nose, then quickly added, "but, unless you are really close with that person, you don't tell them they stink. That is just rude."
He picked out a few clothes that he thought Gen would look nice in and placed them in the basket as they walked and talked and looked at different clothing items.
