[She likes to think she doesn't need to be carried... look at her go, she's made it a few more steps even! But she tries to think about her hips, though at first that just makes them gyrate awkwardly like a bad dancer before she gets them back under control.]

If Doumeki carried me... I might actually be the right height again... !

[And that's a funny thought, admittedly.]

[ Doumeki nods. He knows judo thanks to his police training, so he's got some knowledge about balance and that kind of thing.

Balance is certainly one of those things you never notice once you get used to it. Poor Konoha is doing her best! ]

Do you want to try? I can place you on my shoulders.

[As a grown woman and a respectable(?!) wife, Konoha knows she shouldn't... But at the same time... she can't help but be curious, staring up at him. She'd seen it all the time at home, of course, people carrying their children on their backs or shoulders, and she'd been rather jealous as a filly, having long grown too heavy for her adopted father to carry while the human village children were still happily laughing along with their parents...

And so with only the briefest of hesitations... she snaps awkwardly back to a stand, holding up her arms shamelessly to assist in being picked up.]

Yes, please!

[She just wants to see what it's like! Better late than never!]

[ Propriety is nbd when you're close friends! They're family! Doumeki thinks nothing of it. ]

Please hold still.

[ Doumeki grabs her by the underarms, lifting her up with ease and turning her around before placing her up onto his shoulders, with her legs hanging down over his front. She's really very light, especially compared to how she is as a jinba. ]

Better?

[This... is... amazing! Even when Gonta lifted her, she could still tell it took effort. He might have a few hundred pounds on her, but with the distribution of muscle it was still hard to hold half a ton in his arms...

But Doumeki makes it look so easy! It must be the up and down human shapes... that and the whole... being a tight one fifty now. (Muscle, it's dense.)

Obediently, she remains as still as possible so as not to upset the process even if she wants to vibrate excitedly... which she starts to do once she's sat on his shoulders. For safety reasons... she wraps her arms around the top of his head, trying not to clench her thighs or topple backwards.]

W- Wow, I think this is even taller than I usually am... !?

[She is having. An amazing time.]

[ Doumeki has all that strength from all his dumb weightlifting, so Konoha really is no problem to lift. He just has to make sure he stays balanced, which is a little harder, but as long as she doesn't sway too much they should be fine. ]

Mm. You are taller than when I am exalted.

[ Just be careful... Don't fall... ]

Are you balanced?

[Is this how Gonta sees the world? Konoha is getting even more excited looking around, maybe accidentally wriggling a bit in a way that may make it hard for... him to balance...]

Yeah! Can we move?

[She.. doesn't know where to go but! Somewhere! She's reliving the childhood memories of being carried that it had been impossible for her to have???]

[ Doumeki does his best to remain steady. He's got a tiny little waist, as you know, so it's a little bit of a wobble... But he stays upright. ]

Very well. Hold on.

[ He'll just go ahead and... walk around the house? At least they have tall ceilings. This is good exercise if nothing else. And Konoha is enjoying herself, so that's good. ]

Should I take you outside?

[fnekwlf is he wobbling? Is she wobbling? Konoha holds on just like he says, and to be honest... she's kind of glad Doumeki is gay for a hot second because wrapping her arms around the crown of his head accidentally slips into a lot of boob pressing and thigh squeezing as she struggles to balance, but-

They're! Moving!!!]

O- Outside is good! Where there's really soft grass with no sharp things... !

[Because her bare feet are so sensitive? It's not like she didn't know humans had to wear shoes for a reason, she just didn't expect it to be this weird?]

[ Never fear, Konoha, the boobs do nothing for him. Doumeki remains firm, unaffected by the warmth and gentle moonlacing from her body. It's just the same energy they'd get from holding hands, so it's not a big deal if you ask him. ]

Are your feet sensitive?

[ She did have hooves before... that tracks. All the same, he starts leading them outside. Careful steps. He's got this! ]

I will be careful not to drop you.

[Thank goodness for the Stoic homosexuals... She's so relieved not to have to worry about that on top of, oh, you know, being in a human body? In general, she is very excited and curious, but... there is a certain underlying shock to it all. When he asks if her feet are sensitive, she initially starts to nod her head, a motion understandable through how her chin knocks against the top of his skull, but-]

Ye- Or... no? Yes? I don't know if they're... anymore weak than normal human feet... it just feels really weird?

[As he walks, she tries to demonstrate, carefully stretching out her legs in front of him and trying to flex her feet. (Curiously, her left foot seems to have a spot of vitiligo-esque lack of pigment going on compared to her darker right foot, in echo of the white sock on her usual equine back leg.]

With hooves, you don't really feel anything but the impact... ? Does that make sense? Like, the frog in the middle is a little more soft, but... I didn't expect it to be this different...

Edited 2020-11-19 16:12 (UTC)

It must feel strange.

[ He'd only been a jinba for a little bit in her dream, so he hadn't really had the time to think about such things. He nods along to her explanation, though. He doesn't know much about horses, but considering they put metal shoes on them, it must be difficult to feel much.

He takes a hold of one of her feet (the lighter one, which he remembers from her usual legs,) mostly since she hasn't felt very much, to help her experience it for herself. He's not going to tickle her... but he's tempted. Just a little bit. ] ]

Have you felt the grass? I can let you down, now that we are here.

Yeah, it-

[She's about to say that it does feel strange... but then he. Touches? her foot??? And he might not be actively trying to tickle her, but the sensation is so foreign that she can't help but kind of twitch her ankles, and the feeling of skin on skin contact there is...

Weird? It's weird, but like... she accidentally half-splutters and half-laughs in surprise. Quick, act normal!!!]

G- Grass could be fun? It looks soft!

[ Ah, it looks like his touch did tickle her. It's probably better that he sets her down, before she shakes too much and they both end up on the grass. So he's careful as he reaches up and lifts her off of his shoulders, setting her down in the soft grass. ]

There you are.

[ He nods. Though actually, that was a little more strenuous than he let off, so he might just go ahead and sit down... ]

It is pleasant in the morning, when you can feel the dew.

[She's airborne again... ! Obediently, Konoha tries to lock her joints and freeze so he can move her however is best, no matter how might ridiculous she might look and how right before he sets her down she suddenly pulls her knees up as if afraid to put her feet down in the grass after all, but-

She did it! She's standing in the grass- !

And... waddling all over the grass with another vaguely tickled laugh, straight out marveling at how weird (again!) it was.]

You can feel all the different blades of grass... I never imagined that!

[... Maybe not all of them, but.]

Doumeki, quick- Show me your feet!

[ He nods, nearly smiling as he watches her enjoy something he takes for granted. He'd never thought of what it would be like to never feel the grass beneath your feet... ]

It's a unique feeling.

[ He tilts his head at her question, though. She wants to see his feet...? Well, she did ask him to do something. And Doumeki always does as he's asked. ]

One moment.

[ He reaches over to untie his shoes and remove his socks, tucking them away safely. He definitely hasn't gone barefoot in a while. ]

What about them?

[ His feet are pretty big -- proportional for a guy his size, but still. Compared to Konoha, he's huge. ]

[While Konoha has never considered anything as crazy and impossible as “what would I look like if I were human” with anything more than passing whimsy, for some reason... well, for very large being-a-jinba and being-used-to-tallness reasons, she’s never imagined she’d be short.

But here she is, barely five feet tall even though she retains the thicker muscles and strength of her mountain breed blood, the white sock that is now a... white foot? Whatever!

She curiously (and very awkwardly, nearly toppling) manages to coordinate a flop onto her butt across from where he sits so she can strength out her legs... and touches their feet together. It makes her giggle a bit again, flexing her toes and curving the sole as far as she can, comparing the rather dramatic difference in size.]

My feet as so small... ! No wonder I can’t balance good!

[His are so big they must be so useful?!?]

[ Doumeki watches with mild curiosity. He supposes it must be like when he'd first grown a tail or woken up half-fish. New appendages always feel strange. This was very new for her, so it's nice to see Konoha enjoy it. ]

It is proportional to our height, generally.

[ Poor Doumeki had shot up like bamboo when he turned 14, and hadn't stopped growing for a long time. But she's right, it's supposed to be for balance, which is why they grow first. He doesn't mind wiggling his toes for her, if it makes her laugh. ]

[It definitely makes her laugh.

Admittedly, laughter and smiles came easily to Konoha, so maybe that wasn’t impressive, but. She stretches a foot up to poke his toes with her toes, then, dried by a curious idea... okay, you can lace fingers between people, can you lace toes???

Attempting it, she tries to spread the digits as wide as she can, expression betraying fierce concentration...

Until instead of victory she feels a twinge in the middle of her sole, another... and then a sudden clench of tightness in a- what’s in feet? Tendons???]

O- Ow?!

[What is a Charley Horse and also why is it called a horse???]

Oh.

[ That looks painful. She's not used to having toes, is she? Doumeki winces sympathetically. ]

Be careful, Konoha-san. Humans have many nerves in their feet. It can be very painful if you injure them.

[ Like stubbing your little toe... ouch. ]

[Not "oh", Doumeki? Ow! Ow?!

Looking totally betrayed by her new feet, Konoha pulls it back close to her body and tries to cradle it in her hands, completely caught off guard by the weird feeling of... muscle? in your foot... when a hoof was... well, more nail...]

You can injure them just stretching weird?!

[She knew they were a weak point, but- ! Still being near comically dramatic about this completely new type of pain, she struggles to figure out how to make it stop, pulling her foot this way and that to try and make the twinging stop (and hissing when a move backfires and makes it worse).]

[ Oh... well, and ow. Doumeki watches her with some sympathy, even if his face stays mostly the same. ]

Yes, they are not meant to move that way. The range of motion is quite limited.

[ Doumeki holds out his hand for her, completely unbothered by her feet. ]

I can rub them for you, if you are sore.

[The toes had looked so fun and flexible... what is this betrayal...

Still nursing her Charley horse, Konoha considers the offer for a moment, wondering if it might be a bit weak to give in already... but her mother sometimes rubbed her father’s feet and he always seemed like it helped, so-

She finally extends the darker of her two feet his way, still half twitching with the cramp.]

Can you make it stop... ?

[He’s a human he must be an expert!]

I believe so. Where does it hurt?

[ Doumeki reaches forward and wraps his big hands over one of her tiny feet. Really, he could probably fit one in each, huh. Well, either way he starts by rubbing the soles with his thumb to encourage blood flow. ]

I will start gently. Let me know if it is too much.

In the middle...

[Right in the arch of the foot, the unexpected twinges making her toes curl in right and leg tighten up as she tries to trust that he knows best...

But that... feels...]

Wh- What's "too much"?

[She might lose her mind... how weird is this? She can feel his thumbs moving on the bottom of her foot... it's so different from how it felt if someone were to tap on her hoof???]
