Hi! You've reached the voicemail of Chloe Sullivan. Leave a message after the beep, and I'll get back to you!

*beep!*

As long as this gets posted before the picnic, I haven't missed the bandwagon, right?

Ahem. I've only got one new person, who actually isn't all that new, so I'm just going to link to the old infopost for the rest of my guys and make this all ( about Chloe... )

Chloe laid back on the bed in her hotel room, drowning herself in the pillows in an attempt to relax. The last few days were still a blur, and while thinking about it was making her start to second guess her actions, she couldn't make her brain shut down.

( In which there is tell, not show, because this canon, oh god I cannot even. )

[Finally taken from Smallville episodes 10x01 and 10x02, and done this way because I love you all too much to subject you to this plot canon catchup-style. :) Establishy and OOC okay!]

Just because this had happened before, it didn't mean Chloe was prepared to wake up as a boy again, especially since Jimmy seemed even more disturbed by the whole thing than last time.

"What's wrong?" she asked. "I mean, besides the obvious. I told you, it's a Fandom thing, I'll be fine by tomorrow. Surely, you can go without kisses for one day."

"It's not that. I mean, it's kinda that," Jimmy said, because really, it wasn't like there were any other girls like Chloe willing to kiss him all the time. "It's just--I really don't like this, even more than all the other weird things."

"Would you rather have had me woken up as a little girl?" Chloe asked. "What's so much more terrible about this?"

Jimmy squirmed on the spot for a moment before finally saying, "I don't like that you turn into a guy who looks like a douchebag."

Well, Chloe thought as she looked at her reflection, she couldn't really argue with that.

[Establishy! *halo*]

Looking back, Chloe still wasn't entirely sure what had happened. She'd agreed to meet up with Lana and Oliver to discuss his new job for her, one that would actually keep her in Metropolis for a while, and Chloe had ended up amazed by how everything about the Isis Foundation appealed to her. Getting to help the meteor infected before they went crazy and homicidal? Using Luthor money - thanks to Lana's divorce from Lex - for good? There was so much good work that could be done there, and Chloe had felt honored that they wanted to include her in getting everything officially off the ground and running.

She didn't remember who suggested going out for drinks to celebrate, but she did remember that she hadn't had nearly as much to drink as Lana, and the two of them combined hadn't had as much as Oliver. Chloe had been riding a natural high for the last few days, and she'd assumed that it was just an increase in feelings for Jimmy until she found herself pressed tightly into a corner booth, her heart beating faster every time her leg brushed up against Oliver's, and a heady feeling taking over when her hand ended up on Lana's thigh.

( One thing Chloe was certain about was that she'd made the first move. )

[Hey, look at that, I am capable of moving Chloe's story along sometimes. :D]

It had only been a few weeks since Chloe had been back in Smallville, but her assignments, or lack thereof, were the last thing on her mind at the moment. Putting the finishing touches on her tea party was taking up most of her attention, and what was left was going to watching Jimmy as he paced around the bedroom, talking to himself about how something was terribly, horribly wrong. Chloe didn't know what he was talking about - she felt great, except for being sad that he was saying bad words about Fandom again.

Obviously, he needed some tea to feel better.

"Jimmy!" she yelled. "If you don't come and have tea with me, I'm gonna tell everyone you're the meanest boyfriend ever!"

She didn't know what he meant when he muttered that he'd always wondered what prison would be like. Boys were so stupid sometimes.

[Establishy, but open for calls if anyone wants!]

For the longest time now, I've wanted to change Chloe's username to something a little more original, and those of you who pay close attention to your userinfos might have noticed that I finally went ahead and did it. To those who have had the misfortune of getting to listen to me complain about exactly how horrific Smallville has gotten lately, I promise, this was very therapeutic, and my ranting will be more infrequent now. Possibly.

Chloe had spent the last three weeks in Arizona with Jimmy, looking for evidence of a Luthercorp facility for Oliver. Three weeks of learning exactly what defined "a dry heat" meant that waking up in an uncomfortable state wasn't such a strange thing. Realizing she was uncomfortable because her breasts were gone? That was far more surprising.

Luckily, Jimmy was a heavy sleeper, which meant Chloe managed to escape their bed and run into the bathroom without waking him up. After discovering that yes, she really was a boy - and a poorly endowed one at that - she wondered if a certain school could be blamed, and snuck back out to where her laptop was sitting on the hotel room table.

( E-mail cut! )

With that done, she went ahead and started up the mini-coffee maker, trying to figure out what she was going to tell Jimmy when he woke up.

[Chloe's contact list is long, so feel free to assume you got the e-mail if you want to. YES SHE'S CMM BECAUSE SOMEONE HATES ME GRRR ARGH.]
