Small note: Robin is an alternative name I have for Chelsea.

"Hey, Mr. Robin, we're almost at your destination!" the boat captain called out. Robin smiled as he turned back to the mirror.

"I wonder if the people will like me..." he thought as he adjusted the sarashi he had wrapped around his torso.

Whoa, whoa. Hold up. I thought you said Robin was a girl? And what's a sarashi, anyway?

To put it simply, samurai in Japan used to wear them under kimonos to resist injury. It is also used commonly by girls to bind their chests when crossdressing. In Robin's case, it was the latter, although I should say that the binding was only a little bit necessary.

Yes, Robin was, is, and forever will be a girl. Due to her boy-short hair, gender-neutral name, boyish attitude, and her body shape in general, she was constantly mistaken for a boy. Back in sixth grade, everyone, even the teachers called her 'young man'. Boy, were they surprised when Robin showed up on the last day of school, wearing a dress!

"I'm coming up!" Robin yelled, dropping her voice a few notes lower. "Just hold on a second!"

She finished her adjustments and pulled on her shirt to hide anything that might have shown. She had decided to crossdress in what she called 'the right way'; basically, she had flattened her chest as far as it would go, pulled some boxers on under her pants, and she was holding up her pants with a pair of suspenders instead of a belt, both to hide the curves of her lower body. Over those clothes, she was wearing a black muscle shirt and a white button-up shirt, which was slightly unbuttoned at the top. To top it all off, she had mussed up her hair and put one of her baseball caps on top, letting some hair fall onto her face from under the brim. Basically, no-one would be 'mistaking' her for a girl.

Grinning at her final appearance, Robin made her way to the deck, where the boat's captain was waiting. The boat captain looked a little like someone else Robin's friend Akari told her about... his name was Paddy or something like that, she couldn't remember. This boat captain smiled and gestured to the land mass that was slowly inching toward them.

"There," he said, "Are the Sunshine Islands."

SO. This is the first part of my new story! Problem is, I'm having a teeny bit of writer's block for this story. Maybe you can help by suggesting what could happen in the reviews *nudge nudge*
