Mary decided that her best choice of clothing to wear during her next 'teleport', would be something dark and skintight. She'd found that, after merging with clothes and becoming a part-clothes girl, their fabric would stick to her skin like they'd been glued to it, and with wearing skintight clothes, she hoped to make that look less noticeable. By choosing to wear something dark, her changes would likely be even less evident.
Mary quickly found that most of her clothes were rather vibrant in their colors. There were some plain grey shirts or hoodies she could wear, but there was no originality in them, so these options weren't appealing in the least.
Looking through some more drawers, Mary eventually stumbled upon treasure. One drawer was meant exclusively for swimwear. She had several options like a one-piece or a two-piece swimsuit, the one-piece option actually dark blue in color, but what stood out the most in this particular drawer, was the wetsuit she used when surfing.
Darker colors? Well, it was black on the front and back of the torso and legs, and grey on the arms and the sides. Check! Skintight? Its initial function was for it to stick close to the body, so Mary's body would be kept warm even when swimming. So check! In addition, the material it was made of was pretty thick and smooth, the neoprene wetsuit came with black boots with rubber soles and a pair of gloves with better gripping material as well.
The wetsuit was supposed to keep the body warm underneath it with its multiple layering and unique material. By trapping water between the first layer of the suit and Mary's own skin, said water would warm up to her own body temperature, and keep her warm even in what could be considered ice-cold water. The outside layer of the wetsuit was actually water repellant, meaning that she could remain dry even if she drenched herself in it. The way it worked was really fascinating, and it made Mary eager to try it out, now that she knew of the teleportation machine's exploits.
Putting the thing on was a chore, as always. Typically, Mary only wore it in late spring or early autumn, and now that the water was getting warmer again during summer, she didn't really need to be kept warm by the wetsuit all that much, just enjoying her time on the plank in her bikini outfit. Perhaps it was an idea to fill up the bathtub after her change to see its effects.
Once her arms were inside the rubbery sleeves of the suit, Mary reached behind her back to zip it closed. She put on the boots, the material on the bottom similar to the rubber of an actual boot, great for walking over wet or muddy surfaces without getting any filth, like sand or clay in them. Testing out the gloves on her hands, Mary found she could still move her fingers individually with ease. Rubbing her hands together, the rubbery material in her glove's palms and on the fingers met each other with resistance, which was a useful tool for windsufers to have stronger grip against the handlebars on the sails they were using to race over the water with.
Pinching the fabric in places where it sat awkwardly, in hopes to prevent any wedgies from forming, Mary hopped down the stairs from her room and towards her dad's laboratory in the basement.
Activating the teleporter, Mary stepped into the first chamber for a second time, and waited for the machine to activate. There was the bright flash of light again.
