Sybil and a Jaromira in Milliways
Permalink

The door opens. A faint yet pleasant fragrance wafts through, and a woman(?) steps inside. She has long blonde hair in a loose braid, and is wearing a sarong and some kind of wrapped tube top, as well as a stud in each earlobe and three cartilege piercings in her right ear.

"This," Jayithasi says thoughtfully, "is not my studio."

"Nope. Magic bar. Surprise." Blue jeans, black T-shirt, no ear piercings, rattan cane dangling from her arm where she sits at the bar.

She inhales deeply, then frowns in puzzlement.

"Magic bar. Curious. I am Jayithasi Yasmara, and who do I have the pleasure of meeting?"

Permalink

"I'm Isabella. Pleased to meet you."

Permalink

"Pleased to meet you. Sorry, but is your scent unusually faint or something, I can't quite place you."

Permalink

"...I'm not following you."

Permalink

"...I can't smell you? So I'm not sure what gender you are."

Permalink

 

"Interdimensional magic bar."

Permalink

"Ah. And people where you're from don't smell as strongly?"

Permalink

"It is not customary to discern any features about other people by scent where I'm from. Except, like, 'do they shower', 'have they encountered a skunk'..."

Permalink

"Peculiar. Where I'm from it's an important secondary sex characteristic."

Permalink

"We've just got minimally-smelly anatomical differences. Plus role, which is communicated by presentation details of haircut, outfit, body language, and speaking style, but does not have a biological basis."

Permalink

"Role? You mean like--" she tugs on her right ear. "Anyway, I can tell you're hari by your visible anatomical differences, but I can't be sure of more--I'd guess haran, but the other two aren't impossible."

Permalink

"Whatever that is isn't translating, and neither are your earrings."

Permalink

"The earrings communicate that I'm both a sadist and a masochist, but more the former than the latter."

Permalink

"Role is - related to but not exactly that. Dom and sub are relationship styles and only correlate with interest in pain in either direction."

Permalink

"...Huh. So what gender are you, if none of the ones I said are translating?"

Permalink

"I'm a female and a dom."

Permalink

"Yeah that's not translating for me either."

Permalink

"...I'm theoretically capable of bearing children and would prefer to be in charge in any romantic relationships I might pursue."

Permalink

"Four of the six genders I'm familiar with are capable of bearing children and I'm not sure what being in charge of a romantic relationship means."

Permalink

"We've only got two-ish genders and two-ish roles. Uh... I would be the one to make most major decisions including how much to consult my hypothetical sub about them, am statistically more likely inclined to sadism though I'd consider that fairly personal information in the specific, and would generally receive indications of deference from a sub I was involved with."

Permalink

"...That is not a thing where I'm from, so far as I'm aware."

Permalink

"...well. Interdimensional bar."

Permalink

"Anyway, welcome. The bar is a person. Here is my explanatory napkin, I'm done with it." She offers an explanatory napkin.
