Trolls.
That was the word on my brain when I woke up, and the first thing I wanted to do was find out if Xyla was okay.
But I had errands to run. I didn’t know what trolls were like, but I knew I didn’t want them on Earth. There were boxes of things I’d ordered online on the porch. I’d almost forgotten about them, but I brought them inside. Then I went on a hardware store run to get locks.
Kathy popped out of her house when I got ho, as if she’d been looking out the window waiting for .
“Abel!” she called.
“Oh, hi.” I hated that I didn’t have ti to chat with my pretty blonde neighbor. “How’s it going, Kathy?”
“Pretty good. You get all your packages?”
I nodded.
“I was surprised that you left them there overnight.”
I shrugged. “I guess I got kind of wrapped up in my work.”
Kathy laughed. “Or wrapped up in sothing. I saw that girl in the green paint.”
I guess that was, from her perspective, a more logical conclusion than green skin. “Ah, yes, I had a friend over.”
“Cute friend. I’m not surprised that you have ‘friends.’ Although maybe not play in front of the windows, hmm? Anyway, when you didn’t bring the packages in I started to be worried that sothing happened to you. Neighbors need to look after neighbors.”
“Nope, I’m fine.”
“I look forward to seeing what you’ve done with the old place,” Kathy said.
I nodded. “Well, let get it a bit more in shape first,” I said. “It needs a lot of work. Speaking of which…”
“Yes. I’ll let you get on with it,” Kathy said, looking disappointed, which confird my guess that she had been fishing for an invite.
I installed the first lock on the door to the basent, which didn’t have one on it before. I didn’t want anyone wandering down there, for obvious reasons, but Sandra would want to be invited over, and it sounded like Kathy might co knocking at so point, too, just being neighborly. They’d probably all want a tour, but the basent had to be off limits. I wasn’t going to keep it locked all the ti, because that would be annoying to , and anyone who could get through my front door could get through the one in the basent, but it gave an option if soone ca over.
The basent was dangerous. Soone could fall through. But my nightmare scenario is soone informing the governnt.
I took all the boxes to the basent and opened them there. A compass, and new clothing. Jeans. Skirts and cute tops. A bra. I wanted to try them all on, and of course I couldn’t do that in the basent. I reminded myself that I had to focus on more important things, but I’d opened the box because I still needed to wear sothing in Amaranth today, unless I was going to run around the woods naked, in a dress, or in clothes I’d been wearing for days and which needed a wash.
I repacked everything I wanted to take down into a couple of boxes, stripped, and went down to Amaranth carrying the boxes. Temporarily, the boxes would serve as downstairs dresser. At so point I’d pick up sothing at a yard sale, maybe. In my copious free ti.
The transition was feeling more and more normal, now. Being Abby was feeling more normal, too. It wasn’t just a strange body I turned into. It was , just as much as Abel was.
Once downstairs the first thing I did was put on the bra. It felt pretty strange, although compared to suddenly getting breasts nothing felt too peculiar. I wondered if it fit right, and I rembered seeing so ad or article that claid that most won wore the wrong-sized bra. Apparently there was more to it than just asuring in a couple of places, or maybe bra sellers just figured it was smart to make won nervous and want to buy new bras.
In any case, it didn’t seem to give double boob — I checked in the mirror — and it wasn’t too tight for to breathe, so I thought I’d give it a try today. I had things to do, and I didn’t want to waste too much ti.
I’d also gotten so underwear designed for trans won and cross dressers. It fit pretty well, looked feminine, and did a pretty good job of keeping my penis tucked away, at least as long as I didn’t get hard. I felt a little ridiculous in it, but not as ridiculous as I’d feel in Abby’s sexy body wearing boxers or tightie whities. I wanted to have options besides hanging free.
I finished with a tank top and a short skirt, and thought when I was done that no one could tell that I was anything but a very hot girl. Why did that make so pleased? The jeans would probably have been a more practical choice, but I wore jeans all the ti, and I liked the idea of wearing a skirt for a change.
In any case, I had more work to do. I got out the drill, and went to it, installing a modern set of locks on the ancient doors.
The previous day, when I was out in the woods with Xyla, it occurred to that anyone could wander in. That didn’t seem that important in a world full of deer and squirrels and one sexy dryad, and everything else far away. But trolls? No. They were not getting to Earth on my watch if sothing as simple as a lock could stop them.
On the other hand, I didn’t want to get locked out from my ho planet because I forgot my keys sowhere. So I had two lock boxes with keys in them, and combinations. My intention was to bury them nearby, not deeply, for ergencies. Two might seem overkill, but it wasn’t as if I could call a locksmith if things went wrong.
I realized my outfit lacked one very important thing — pockets. It wasn’t as if I hadn’t heard enough won complain about that. I tucked a key in my bra and went outside to bury the lockboxes.
I didn’t get to it, because I had visitors.
Xyla, wearing nothing but three leaves, would normally have held all my attention. But next to her was a six-foot tall blue woman.
I knew imdiately that she was a troll. Enash had said that troll won weren’t bad looking, and in her case it was an understatent. She looked like a punk amazon goddess — okay, one with cyanosis, but blue looked good on her.
She had long, violet hair that was shaved on the sides, to reveal slightly pointed ears. She wore a sort of asymtrical dark brown leather skirt and a bandeau top of the sa material, both of which looked like their form had as much to do with the shape of the skin of the animal as any attempt at fashion. That left a muscled stomach and long toned legs bare, as well as shapely shoulders. And she did a good job of filling out the top, too.
She held a bow in her right hand, and a long wicked knife was strapped to her belt. A gold bangle with red stones in it adorned her wrist. I could see the feathers of arrows poking over her shoulder, presumably in a quiver of so kind.
There was perhaps a little too much Barbara Streisand in the nose, but that was quibbling. And maybe she could sing.
And now, she knew about my hideout.
You can keep your secret if you bash her head in with your shovel. Best way to stop people from rembering things. But maybe you want to fuck her first. Although second works, too.
I realized Enash had been very quiet while I’d been dressing earlier. Maybe he figured that his input might’ve driven to put on sothing that covered more. He was probably right.
“Abby!” Xyla rushed and nearly toppled over with a hug. Apparently she wasn’t worried about the troll woman, so I tried to let myself enjoy the resulting boob squish as I gave her a tight squeeze. “I’m so glad you let know you were back.”
The troll watched curiously.
Let her know? I hadn’t fired up the line trimr or the chainsaw — ah, the drill made the sa kind of noise.
“Abby, this is Princess Gren. Gren, this is Abby, I told you about her.”
Gren nodded. “You told she had a penis.”
“She does!” Xyla said. “Want to show you?” She knelt down in front of and reached for my hips.
I stepped back, wanting more control over the situation. “Whoa. Um, pleased to et you, Princess Gren. I’m Abby. I like to think there’s sothing more to than just being a chick with a dick.”
Gren giggled. “Chick with a dick!” she said. “Haha. Still, it must be much smaller than Xyla said. Anyway, it is nice to et you, too, Abby chick with dick. And you can just call Gren, no need for the Princess thing.”
“You can just call Abby, no need for the chick with dick thing.”
“A deal!” she said, and spit on her hand. She offered it to .
“You spit on your hand and shake it, to agree,” Xyla said. “It’s a troll thing.”
Other cultures are not wrong, they are just sotis weird. I spat in my hand, feeling rather unladylike, and shook Gren’s. Her handshake was firm and wet. I calibrated my pressure to match hers. She squeezed a little tighter, and I squeezed back. Then she locked gazes with and upped the pressure again, and I responded in kind.
“Xyla said you were strong,” Gren said. “Now I know.” She let go. Apparently I had passed the test.
“Gren and I are friends,” Xyla said. “Or more than friends. We made love again last night. It was a sha you couldn’t join us.”
Okay, now there was an image.
“You would have been welco,” Gren said. “Even if your penis is not as large as Xyla claims. You have fantastic tits.”
It’s good to see a troll that appreciates quality worksmanship. Not too firm, but not so soft that they sag. Big enough to draw the attention, but not so much so that you topple over. And the work I had to do on your back to make sure the whole structure could be supported without injury! Making bodies isn’t easy.
“Um, thank you. You’ve got a great rack, yourself.”
“Yes, don’t I? I can make any cock disappear between my massive jugs.”
Okay then.
I looked between Xyla and Gren. It seed undiplomatic to ntion that I was under the impression that trolls and Xyla didn’t get along, but I wanted to know what was up. And I definitely didn’t like the idea that the trolls now knew about the tomb. I’d gotten the locks on just in ti, although I was already thinking that maybe a combination lock would be better. You could normally break them easier, which was why I hadn’t gone that route, but I could be mugged for the key.
I didn’t want a troll invasion of Earth. Even with magic not working, I imagined they could cause so trouble, but worse, they’d draw attention to the gate.
For now, I’d wait.
“Abby,” Xyla said, “We have a problem we need your help with.”
I leaned my shovel against the wall and put the lockboxes down. If we were going to be a while, I wanted to get folding chairs, but I wasn’t going to open up the crypt in front of Gren to do it. There probably wasn’t a good way to sit on the ground in my short skirt. I leaned against the wall, and realized I was doing hooker stance.
Ah well, maybe that didn’t have the sa connotation here. “Tell about it,” I said.
