"Well, can't I requalify?" Harper asked peevishly, crossing her arms over her chest, the sensation unfamiliar as now she had a fair bit more on said chest.
"Hmmm..." Erin flicked through the manual. "Ah, here's an idea. You could work as a school librarian at the local high school, while doing night school? It's not the most onerous job, you could do some studying at work, you'd have access to the library. Wouldn't even have to really interact with the kids much unless they were really shorthanded."
Harper looked sceptical for a moment before relenting. "Well... there's no harm trying it. I take it people can resign from jobs on this world?"
Erin laughed. "Of course, why wouldn't we? Anyway, you could actually get started off tomorrow!"
And so Harper spent her first night in this strange new reality alone in a small government-provided apartment, still sparsely furnished. She'd been given some clothes and some assurances she'd be provided with a little more furniture to fill the place up, and that Erin would be just a phone call away (hell, she was the only number in Harper's phone!), but otherwise it was a very lonely night.
Erin picked her up the next day, in the same government suit. "Nice dress!" Harper rolled her eyes, feeling a little unsure about the choice, a red summer dress with pink roses. For some reason, she felt like dressing girly... god, was she getting used to this. "So how much did you masturbate last night?"
Harper turned beet red and looked at Erin, aghast. "I... what... why would you?" She turned even redder. In truth, she'd found herself experimenting, stuffing herself over and over with a dildo she'd found in the apartment.
Erin laughed. "Don't worry about it, I'm just fucking with you. All the ones who used to be guys, they just go at it. Perfectly natural. Anyway, the headmistress is called Mrs Willoughby; she'll meet you inside, anything you need or any culture clash questions, give me a phone."
Harper felt odd walking into the school; but everyone had been very kind, very welcoming, and in no time she'd been ushered through to the school library and left to get settled in, reviewing her shelves and her desk and what she had to do to pick up from the former librarian, it was surprisingly normal for having yesterday been a male lawyer and now being a female librarian with a celebrity's face, only in a world where she wasn't famous. But the peace couldn't last forever, as soon...
