- Thyra looks at Jason "Jason! You didn't tell me this was a -costume- party!
- We're wearing completely the wrong clothes!"
-
- She smiles at him and her eyes glow brightly. Jason's dark jeans and
- leather jacket flow, shift, and change colors. Now he is wearing a late
- 21st century diver's skinsuit, dark green and hugging -every- contour of
- his body. A slender backpack unit containing a mechanical set of gills
- provides air to his full-face facemask, which is of course provided with a
- drinking tube for consuming party potables. His Cyberdeck is strapped to
- his chest, sealed in a watertight plastic cover with a thin membrane over
- the keyboard. She smilers and then comments "Well, I'm -sure- the other
- ladies would love you just like that, but Pegasus will kill me if we don't
- do a -bit- more for modesty's sake." She grins and waves a hand, and adds
- to his outfit a loincloth of seafoam green, the edges trimmed to look like
- kelp. Jason looks at himself reflected in Kitten's serving tray, and nods
- his approval.
-
- Then her eyes glow again, and her own form shimmers and shifts. The dress
- disappears, and her legs become a pair of dolphin-like tails, covered in a
- glossy, dark-brown fur like the pelt of a sea-otter. The fur on the upper
- half of her body and down the length of her feline tail darkens to match
- her twin fish-tails, and her hair vanishes, leaving a smooth feline pelt.
- Her feline ears and whiskers are still present, but the ears have become
- smaller and fold back flat when she swims. She isn't wearing a top, to the
- delight of several of the male patrons nearby. She grins "There, a
- bifurcated mer-cat. Purrrfect for an undersea party!" She takes a deep
- breath, filling her lungs with the water that now surrounds them both. When
- she exhales, several fine gill-slits hidden in her fur, just below her
- rib-cage, briefly become apparent. "OK, Lets get in the swim of things,
- shall we?"
