I'm writing this chapter chatroom style with several chats going on simultaneously. I'm bolding and left aligning all side chats. The side chat remains the same until a different side chat is declared, the main chat will be centered. And no, Sam's gender will not be the main plot just one of the subplots I plan on writing for this story.
All Lyoko Warriors' chat
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Odd: Hello, new lyoko warriors! This is Odd one of the OG Lyoko warriors!
Yumi: Ok so does everyone have everyone's number or do we all need to introduce ourselves?
Ruby: no one sent us any of your numbers sam :(
Sam: They never game me their numbers
Ulrich: that would be my fault I never game him our numbers
Ulrich: This is Ulrich btw
New chat: Sam, Odd, and Jack Odd: Hey sam! There's soemone I want you to meet Jack: I'm Odd's friend Jack Sam: I'm Sam, but I'm sure you already knew that.
Jeremie: all of us "OG" warriors have all of your numbers. This is Jeremie Belpois.
Yumi: Yumi
Sam to Rebecca Sam: can you ask them to send selfies so I know who's who... Rebecca: ok, you get nervous about the weirdest things3 Sam: you're one to talk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aelita: I'm Aelita, but we have something important we need to talk about
Aelita: (typing)
Rebecca: can the OG warriors send selfies so we can match names with people
*Aelita stops typing and all of the OG warriors sent pics of themselves, Jeremie takes selfies like a boomer* Sam, Odd, and Jack
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jack: Odd told me your trans
Jack: I'm a transman too. I'm trans too I've been living as a man for years I've been on T for almost seven years. I got top surgery last year too much gatekeeping
Aelita:(typing)
Sam: no need to brag
Aelita: now that we all know introduced ourselves we have something very important to talk to you all about. Since we went to Lyoko again XANA maybe after us so you should check in with us before doing a return to the past.
Jack: What I'm trying to say is if you want I can be ur big brother and help you navigate the world while trans because I was once in your shoes
Natasha: then how will we always know when XANA attacks, the super scan program you left us doesn't always pick up everything. Sam and I worked on it a little but the code is so convoluted that we don't know how to fix it
Natasha: have you ever heard of commenting your code?
Natasha: Sam I'm talking to you too.
Sam: IF you know what I go through I could use a big brother.
Sam: My parents practically kicked me out when they found out that I like girls
Sam: There's no way can find out that I'm not cis.
Jeremie: Well, I wasn't expecting other people to really be working on it and I knew what I was coding so I felt no need. Let's have everyone evolved with coding meet me at the factory at ten am tomorrow morning.
Jack: My parents kicked me out when I told them so I know the feeling Sam: How did you survive?
Natasha: I can't wait I have so many questions!
Jack: I know that this sounds cheesy but it's true, my friends Odd: mainly!? Jack: ok, I moved in with Odd for a bit lol
Jack: mainly Odd
Aelita: will Sam be coming as well?
Jack: I was also almost done which collage and managed to land a job quickly Sam: Ok I'll be your little brother
Jack: I haven't talked to my family in years
Natasha: he doesn't seem to be paying attention to this conversation but he's definitely doing something on his phone idk what's more important than this
Sam: I'm talking to someone else
Sam: yes I'll be there
Diana: I'm saying this in the nicest way possible since when do you have other friends?
Sam: I'm just going to ignore that comment Ruby: lol
Sam: Odd introduced me to his trans friend
Sam: So I'm talking to him
Damian: I'm glad that you have someone that you can talk
Yumi: so was that who you were texting all night
Rebecca: It's great that he has someone to talk to about this especially since he refuses to use social media.
Jack: I gtg but before big bro needs to know if your binding in a dangerous way Sam: I can't get a binder because I know I will wear it for too long Jack: Look into transtape it's a way to bind that you can safely wear all day even when you exercise Sam: I don't have any money Jack: I'll pay for it Sam: thanks brother Jack: I know how terrible dysphoria I can't imagine how bad it is when your not out and are constantly deadnamed and misgendered Sam: I'm at boarding school I have to use the girls bathroom locker room and showers there are no non gendered options Jack: I'm sorry Sam but I;m here if you ever need to talk Odd: I'm so glad I introcued you to!
Sam: I also do a lot of surprise exercise
Sam: I stack sports bras and wear baggy shirts and hoodies
Sam: but dysphoria still drives me crazy
