Why This Must Be Read: This second-person POV story packs a powerful punch in just a few words. It's a remix of a D/s fic bytelesilla (Strong Enough to be Your Man) that I also really like. This remix is darker, giving us a John with gender dysphoria who makes himself go along with Rodney's scene rather than try to talk about it, as a last interaction before he leaves. They meet again much later, and it's left hanging whether Rodney can adapt to the changes, and whether John will let him try. Powerful, and deserves several re-reads to appreciate the nuances. The second person POV is essential to get us inside John's somewhat dissociated head, especially as, for several reasons, he can't say what he needs to, out loud.
You wear the dress.
You could say no, could safeword, but then you'd have to tell Rodney something, make up some excuse, and in the end it's just easier to wear it.
The waxing should have been a clue, but hindsight is twenty-twenty. At the time you'd just been happy to be rid of the hair, weird as it was to have some woman doing it. You've shaved your legs before, of course, and even your chest once or twice, but not in years. Not since before Nancy.
And waxing is nothing like shaving anyway. When you step into the dress, there are no nicks or missed patches for the fabric to catch on. You already have the panties on, fancier than anything you've worn before, just a bit of lace that barely holds your junk in place. Rodney didn't leave a bra, just panties, shoes, and dress. That's fine with you. Wearing a bra only ever makes it worse.
There was lipstick and eyeliner in the now-empty bag on the bed (it's not like Rodney knows about your stash), but no wig or anything, so you're pretty sure Rodney doesn't want you pretending to be a woman.
That's fine with you, too. You're not very good at being a woman, but you've got forty years' experience pretending to be a guy.
