SB POV:

Xisuma had called us all into a server meeting and I was confused. Normally I'm not included in them because I have a tendency to not listen.

I arrive with Tango, Impulse and Zed to the meeting and we take our seats.

"So this world has kinda given us all that it can and I think it's time to start anew" Xisuma spoke, and pretty much everyone agreed.

"So it sounds like it's gonna be a world jump?" Tango asked.
"Whats gonna happen with SB? She wasn't-" he seemed to cut himself off before continuing.

I heard my name, this grabbed my attention.

"Huh? What's happening, what's going on with the change of season?"

"We are starting new to do more" Cleo says bluntly.

"Oh ok, when is this happening?"

"Well if all goes according to plan tonight" xisuma said happily.

"...."
"Please don't leave me......" I said softly.

"Sb. We wouldn't leave you. You're coming with us." Impulse reassured.

"This all being said you do have until tonight to gather any memorabilia, also known as things you brought with you when you first joined but nothing that you have gathered in this world besides pictures taken and cyborg parts. Obviously we have a few exceptions for our cyborgish friends, and for clothing. And communicators are a given." Xisuma explained.

"Don't forget Jellie" scar said softly.

"And Jellie."

"Wait what if we gained something such as wedding rings in this world?" Zedaph asked.

"That's included in clothing"
"Everybody is dismissed, except for Sb and Tango."

And just as quickly as we all got here everyone left.

"Sb, I found something mildly concerning within your code. Specifically the gender part of it, is there anything you have on your mind?"

Fuck. Shit. Oh no. Ahhhhhhh.
"Soooo what if being a girl has been adding to my mental holdbacks? And that I would much rather be a boy...?"

"I see. Well that explains why it was slightly glitching. I can set it to male if you would like?" Xisuma mentions.

"You don't have to."

And this is where Tango decides to speak up.

"I see the shimmer in your eye Sb, if it helps you, take the offer."

"Sb, would you like it if I fixed the glitch to male?"

I nodded slightly embarrassed.

"That settles it then, when you join the new world, you will be from then on be gendered correctly."

:D

"Well I guess we better go pack up." Tango suggested.

I followed Tango back to toon towers, it's unreal to think about how in a few hours we won't live there anymore. I'm excited and nervous. And I'll get to be a boy! Finally!

I throw together my cloths, notebook, and sketchbook. And while waiting I took an Iron sword from the mess chest, gathered up my hair, and sliced it to a length going to about my ears. Pulling my hood up to cover it for the time being.

TIME SKIP BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HCS8

Xisuma had given us the all clear and we met back up at spawn. Everyone was here, just like the first time I spawned. Xisuma opened the portal. It looked like the universe opened its mouth.

"You all know he drill one at a time, we are leaving in the evening we should spawn in the late morning." Xisuma informed.

One by one, each person stepped into the portal. I went directly after Tango.

After stepping through, I stepped into a new unfamiliar world. I found Tango, Impulse, and Zedaph and stood by them. We spawned next to a village.

"Welcome everybody to the new world we have 2 new hermits this world, everybody welcome Pearlescentmoon and Geminitay" for some reason Mumbo was doing the introduction....

"Yes the girl power grows there's now 6 of us!" Stress exclaimed.

"So about that stress..." I slightly muttered.

But everyone was more excited to greet new people and start exploring, which is a good thing. I don't really want to mention it.

I just kinda blindly followed Tango, until he found a small peninsula in a spruce forest. I helped him gather up some logs for his starter house. Then I just kinda let him do his own thing.

I had to go meet up with Doc and Iskall to make sure there weren't any bugs or anything in my arm. Though the issue stands I have no clue where they were ;-;

I decided to send a message into the cyborg chat.
<SB> so where y'all at? Y'all told me to meet up with you once we were in the new world to check for bugs or something?
<Docm77> uhhhhh I'm a few galaxy's away I'll be there hopefully later tonight...... that is if the hippy driving this ridiculous hyperspace rv goes to the right planet this time!
<Iskall85> shattered savanna, you may have some difficulty finding it, and climbing it.... So I'll send Etho for ya. Just wait at spawn

I head over to the spawn village, and wait for Etho. After a few minutes he finds me, and has to take a double look at me.

"Did you get a haircut????" He asked.

"Yep." I beamed.
"So remember earlier when stress said there's now 6 girls?"
"There's actually five. I no longer count as girl."

"Ok then, im supposed to bring you to Iskall. Follow me to the savanna."

I followed Etho for a bit, before the mountainous terrain appeared. He led me to a bubblevater that I assume brings us to the top.

Iskall greeted me with the same expression as etho.

"Good afternoon SB. I like the haircut. Im guessing Tango doesn't know?" Iskall laughed.

"He knows, but Impulse and Zed don't."

"We'll that sounds like it'll be a fun conversation. How has your arm been since arriving in the new world? Nothing out of the ordinary I presume?"

"It felt tingly in the portal here... but other than that it seems fine"

He unscrewed the cover and began carefully inspecting the electronics. It took a few hours to inspect everything.

Once he was done, I received a message from tango saying he was sending Impulse and Zed to bring me back safely.

Iskall helped me get down from the shattered savannah.

Once I got down I noticed they were on horse.

"Ready to go- holy moly you cut your hair off." Zed said surprised.
"What in the world would you do that for?"

"Well, I'm certainly not a girl, I'm a boy..... Xisuma helped relive me of that one weight when he noticed part of me was glitched....."

"Cause your a boy? You're trans. Well why didn't you tell us sooner we could of sorted this out sooner." Impulse added

"I was afraid of being abandoned again...."

"We may not always say the right thing and we're not always gonna be perfect. I might slip up and refer to you as my honorary daughter on accident just because of habit. But you're here with us and everyone here cares for you, so if you're our honorary son know then so be it. Just know that no matter what you do or who you are we're gonna be there for you."

"I- thank you Impulse."

I felt relived that they accepted me. Just hoping that everything continues to go well. This new world has a strange vibe to it. Something doesn't feel right, but I shrug it off as just not being used to it yet.
