So this morning I woke up and looked in the mirror, and looked like Billy. And I was kinda pissed, because like, that creepy body-switching curse just happened last month to me and Euphie, so not fair that I pull it two months in a row.

But, nope. No blue glowy magic stuff. I look weird but I feel fine. Still speedy.

And Billy still looks like Billy. So now we both look like Billy.

I don't get it.

][ooc; 'Thomas' apparently means 'a twin.' Which, you know, he is, but I figured the curse could accentuate the fact. Using

At least when everyone's the same you know what to expect. Sorta. [He lets the door fall and moves alongside her, letting her set the pace of course as they walk.]

[This right here is where Euphie reaches for his hand as they walk. Princesses, you know?] True. Or when we have a break from it all. It's a wonder any of the businesses stay open with all that happens.

[He's not normally the hand-holding type but he is the accommodating type. At least for cute girls, so she's welcome to his arm.] I guess they kind of have to. Like, it's not like people don't need to eat and stuff, even if they're turning into wombats every other day.

[She giggles at his choice of curse.] You'd make a cute wombat.

I'm not sure I've ever actually seen a wombat.

I have in the zoo. They don't look at all like bats of course.

I like being people-shaped, though. [He smiles slightly, leaning in a bit closer than is strictly necessary. Hey, it's cold, he's just preserving warmth, right?]

I guess you aren't so bad when you are people-shaped. [She looks amused and not at all bothered by this leaning.]

Yeah? Thanks.

[At least they're not in each other's bodies this time, right? But that's a little too weird to think about right now, since he's thinking about what she said under the mistletoe.]

You seem okay today, at least. No curses?

No curses. At least none that I'm aware of, but the network is free of my posts and I seem okay to you, right?

You seem fine.

Flatterer. [Teasing.]

Is that such a bad thing?

I don't mind it from you. [Smiling. She's a little amused.]

Good. [He's leading them vaguely towards the park, not so much because he doesn't want to be seen but because it seems a little more pleasant, even in the cold.] I like being able to get away with stuff.

Oh? What else would you like to get away with?

[He stops and gives her a funny smile, shifting so they're face to face instead of side to side, lifting a hand to brush her hair away from her face.]

[She's been expecting something like this, but she finds when he actually does that she starts to blush. Still, she tilts her face up toward him instead of away to hide it.]

[It's not that he's nervous, because he isn't; he just believes in waiting for the right moment. But, with his hand forced, he'll make the most of it. So he kisses her without hesitation.]

[Her eyes close slowly and she kisses him back. It definitely feels different not on a curse day. Well, not on a mistletoe curse day at least.]

[Well, maybe they don't have to go anywhere at all. He draws her a little closer, one hand settling on her waist, kissing her a bit more deeply than he's dared in the past.]

[Anywhere is highly overrated. She allows him access, still kissing him every bit as much in return. She reaches a hand up to settle on the back of his neck. His hair doesn't feel any different at least.]

[Really he's not so different from usual; only in ways that have nothing to do with what he looks like, and everything to do with what's going on. Kissing her, Tommy is perfectly still, something that might seem inconceivable in comparison with his usual over-energetic self. The truth is it's all a matter of focus.]

[When she finally starts to pull away it's only because her lungs are in protest of her abuses. She doesn't go far when she does shift.]

[You'll excuse him, princess, if he looks a little pleased with himself.]
