Conversation

RaeXitchilla knew she'd not had a normal childhood. For starters most kids are not the result of ten years of genetic and biochemical tinkering by their parents, blending two incompatible lifeforms into a coheisve whole.

She had to admit they'd done a good job. Being able to shift in appearance to conform to either bauplan, and look good at it, was a plus. On the down side, all forms of teenage rebellion had to be carefully examined for possible interactions with her distinctly unique biochemistry. At least she got to see her brother struggle through it as well.

Dating had been the worst bit. When she let go, various bits of both her base forms tended to emerge. There had been the people who were revolted. There had been the fetish creeps. And the fact that that had applied to both species was the bit that was really disappointing.

Still, there had to be someone out there. She just had to find them. Maybe there was a third intelligent life form out there. Or maybe there was someone on the two worlds.

Somewhere.
