You also look a little different

My skin was barely gray at all now, and the roots of my hair were almost completely black. There were two gray streaks at the front, framing my face, that hadn't changed at all. But everything else was dark.

I'd look like a completely different person in a few weeks.

I didn't have any particularly strong feelings about that, but I was irrationally excited for my hair to grow out dark. I'd always loved the color, as a kid and a teenager. It reminded me of my mom too, even though I tried not to think about her much.

Is anyone eyeing my car?

Me

Not yet

I can leave some of my shadows with it while I'm inside, to keep it safe, though. Now that I'm changing, I actually think I could ditch them for a little while.

I should try that with you, too

Dare

I don't like the idea of you without your shadows in a place where my car is at risk

Me

It does seem like an expensive car

Dare

It's not the car I care about

Me

We'll both be fine

Dare

Can you share your location with me?

Me

I could

Me

I'll think about it

And since we're not even to the point of having actual sex yet...

Dare

Ouch
