Awkward was the name of the game. Some random monster appears and Woody wants to appear masculine... The fight lasts so long that Quester just went and punched the monster to death in a second or two. Woody wants to see if Quester wants some girly clothes at the town's vendor?.. Quester tried them but didn't exactly resonate, and only bought one outfit that Woody had paired because they were lovely on her. She had even changed into them when she figured out about the cosmetics slot. Woody had gotten them reservations at a restaurant that was nice, but Quester seemed to wish that Woody had made food for them instead claiming it tasted better.
By the time the date was wrapping up it was evening when the real killer came around. When approaching the edge of town a little girl in the robes of a body mage asked "Say, you wouldn't happen to be going to Faldon would you?"
Quester turned and said "Yeah, that's where the guild portal is... Wait... you're the body mage that made me a woman aren't you?"
The body mage asked "Ah, enjoying the female life to it's fullest?"
Woody sighed and Quester explained "Kinda... My friend here asked for a date and... I mean he's kinda cute, but it just wasn't meshing."
The body mage chuckled "If you escort me I'll switch you back... could even do it now, you seem like a fine... well not gentleman exactly."
Woody felt like something died when a pile of goop had returned Quester to a man and the outfit he had picked out had reformed as... Well a similar outfit but fitted for a man. Still looked real nice. The walk home felt quiet, and when they got to the guild portal Quester invited the body mage for a drink after having heard the body mage was an adult but just liked to shape their body in different ways. One drink turned into two... then three... There were some laughs till...
"MAKE ME A WOMAN!!!" Woody blurted out drunk and uninhibited.
The body mage raised an eyebrow as Quester said "Calm down Woody. There wasn't anyt-"
"YES THERE WAS!" Woody asserted "...There was something there it's just... I think we were the wrong sexes..." Woody went for his rune pouch and then dumped hundreds of runes on the table "There's the runes!" Woody put a thousand gold on the table "and there's the gold, DO IT I'LL SHOW YA I'LL BE A GOOD GIRLFRIEND!!!"
The rest of the clan quieted down and stared. A number of the few girls around were looking, judging, and waiting to see whether or not they'd be ridiculing Woody for the rest of his life... or maybe letting a new sister into their sisterhood. Quester looked annoyed, but there was a bit of apprehension... near the start there was that little spark, and while he no longer saw Woody as the handsome man he could love...
The body mage chuckled "Ah, now this is what I live for." as they pocketed the coins and runes and cast their spell. Woody turned into a pool of goop as the body mage felt at the essence of what Woody's template was and shifted a Y-chromosome into and X, extrapolated, tried to figure out what the female form looked like... man was Woody going to be tiny. 4 foot 10 inches... body mage 23 decided to shift the rest of the mass to breasts and ass like usual, and when Woody emerged she could feel her alcohol tolerance drop as she stumbled with a light head. As she was about to drop Quester caught his friend who... His eyes caught Woody's cleavage as his face got a bit redder. The girls quickly went into action as they carried maybe a new sister back to her room. Body mage 23 chuckled as they followed "Hey, let me join ya. I live for this drama!" Quester was left alone for a bit as he finished his drink and then decided to go to bed as well.
Ama (last name Zone) looked at the body mage and asked "So why the hell is Woody so stacked? Are you just some guy with a fetish?"
The body mage shrugged "Creating or destroying matter is a pain, I prefer to redistribute unless I'm being paid A LOT... and with her being so naturally short... As for the second question would you believe a body mage if I said yes or no?"
"Don't yall mage types have a guild together or something?"
"It's more like Hogwarts without the Hogwarts. A number of mages who share tips and tricks and teach each other. No guild, just a lot of friend requests." Ama wasn't the guild leader, she had a decent amount of sway in the guild though being he head combat specialist. She sent a message to the guild leader who just accepted body mage 23 into the guild.
"So then newbie, what's your nickname?"
"Call me 23"
