The question was - what should I do? I realized I had several options. I could just make myself accept the idea of submitting to a woman. I could, I supposed, change my sexuality and submit to another man. But the truth was, the ideas didn't appeal to me as much as actually becoming like her. If I was going to do this, I was going to take it all the way. I was going to change myself into a submissive girl.
Well, not quite a girl. A young woman, a college freshman. I had no previous experience with submitting, and part of the allure was to explore it. I wanted the new, temporary me to be inexperienced, and figured that making me younger was a logical thing to do. I also wanted to become petite. Part of the idea that I could not see myself as submitting as a man was the idea that I would be physically superior, so the new me would have to be short, slender and feminine, without much strength.
As I played around with the settings I discovered that the program was surprisingly user-friendly. When I changed my sex, the program asked me if I wanted it to automatically make personality changes to fit the new me I was creating. I pressed yes. Sliding my height down to 4' 11" also reduced my weight considerably, and helpful tooltips popped up to guide me in adjusting different settings the way I wanted them to be. For most things, I didn't really need to go into the advanced menus, though I did play around with a few of them. The exception, obviously, was the sexuality tab.
Switching my sex to female had not changed my sexuality. Or, depending on your definition, it had flipped it. It was still at heterosexual. The original image in my mind had been of me submitting to another woman, but after a moments thought I decided to nudge it just a little in the direction of bisexual. If I was to become a woman, why not experience how it would be to be with a man? My libido was alreay quite high, but I nudged that a little bit higher just because. For my sadomasochistic urges, I completely removed any dominant tendencies, while turning the submissive urges up high. There was also an exhaustive list of more specific likes and dislikes, which I decided to let the Chronivac randomize somewhat for me. I went on without studying it, figuring that it would be more fun to discover them as I explored.
Over in the Personality tab, I noticed that the Chronivac had made a personality profile very much in keeping with my sexuality. I would long to submit to the right man (or possibly woman), finding fulfillment in that position. As a last move, I decided to give myself a leg up in that department. I decided to give myself a budding relationship. Daniel, an old friend of my ex, was both single and very much a dominant man.
"Warning: Relationship Match Not Optimal", came a pop-up once I added him. "Use the slider below if you wish to improve the match (current match: High)". Why not, i figured, and slid it the rest of the way up. This prompted another pop-up; "Subject Daniel Henson out of Chronivac range. Applying changes to primary subject only (changes: fairly minor)".
Done, I hooked off for reality change, set my own awareness to on, and finally clicked the "Apply" button.
