Angron had thought he'd seen everything, but this current situation involving the Imperial Princess, Magnus, Perturabo and Mortarion took the proverbial cake. He had managed to make time to visit his sister five years after she awoke from her coma and had no idea what he was about to step into.
"Okay…" he breathed out. "What happened?"
"Magnus was experimenting again and we all got gender swapped," Perturabo's now effeminate voice grated Angron, disturbing him greatly. His three brothers were now well endowed women while Alesia looked like a younger copy of the Emperor and clearly mad at the Scarlet King.
"We go to grab him for some game time and this is what we get," Alesia grumbled, disturbing everyone with how similar her voice was to their father's if he were younger. Alesia may be thirteen years old now, but she (he?) looked more like a fully grown adult now.
"According to Malcador, we should be back to normal within a few days," Magnus said, looking extremely sheepish for putting them in this predicament. "In any case, now we know we make—mmf!!"
"Finish that and I'll make you regret all of your life choices," Mortarion silenced his now sister. "Hell, I'm ready to throttle your ass right now! I sure as fuck didn't sign up for period cramps!"
"Wait, what now?" Now Angron was firmly in the 'beyond disturbed' territory.
"Everything is real and functioning," Perturabo explained, "including the reproductive parts. By the way, Alesia, I am so sorry you have to deal with this every month."
"It sucks, huh?" The Imperial Prince(?) deadpanned. "And I'm surprised you three even got it, let alone at the same time." He turned and began walking out of the room. They had met up in Magnus's study to discuss which game they would play, but now it looked like that wasn't going to happen today. "In any case, I'm going to hole up in my room until this wears off and resist the urge to strangle a certain someone."
"Wait, you're not going to share your girly wisdom with us?" Mortarion called out only to shrink back from the arctic glare he received.
"You were saying I should suck it up the last time I bitched about cramps, so practice what you preach, Morty, and suck it up."
Kithes snuck into his charge's room, knowing the Imperial Princess would attempt to toss him out again, but was determined to uphold his duty to guard her. While the Princess had been gender swapped, his ward had expressed her gratitude he kept referring her by her actual gender.
"What part of 'I need space' did you not get?" Alesia inquired from her cocoon of blankets. Her four original wolves had cuddled around the mound that was the Princess's sulking nest and Loki appeared to be trying to dig through the blankets to get to his master. "This is why you don't get nice things, Loki!"
"Your father's orders to protect you overrides your need to sulk, child," Kithes decided that some teasing was needed to cheer her up.
"Argh! Why was Magnus even experimenting gender swapping in the first place?" She groaned in frustration. "This feels so wrong!"
"Be glad your father isn't here to make an Austin Powers reference." The nest visibly shivered at that and he couldn't blame his charge for her reaction.
"Yeah, there's that…" Even when buried under a mound of blankets, Kithes could hear the change in his charge's voice. The pile shifted around, stilled for a moment, and the Princess jumped out. She was noticeably feminine again and was practically dancing around the room.
"I'm back to normal!" Alesia almost sang and then the most sinister grin Kithes had seen graced her face. "And I have the perfect prank to pull on Magnus."
Mortarion was glad to be a guy again, despite it taking him three days to turn back unlike his little sister. He, Perturabo and the Scarlet Dumbass had to suffer through the gender swap for three days, but he had a feeling that the proverbial other shoe was about to drop.
And it didn't take long for it to happen.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!!" He heard Magnus from his personal quarters. Mortarion set aside his Fenrisian beer, casually walked to his giant brother's door as a whole lot of cussing followed the initial exclamation and stuck his head in…to see Magnus's entire library turned into Nekona's ideal reading nook. All the book covers were the same shade of rosy pink with no noticeable title, making it neigh impossible to tell which tome was which without opening said tomes. The walls were likewise pink with white accents and the furniture were replaced with cutesy versions that were not to Magnus's taste.
Mortarion just turned right around, walked back to his room, shut the door, and busted out laughing knowing his little sister had gotten her revenge.
"Remind me never to piss her off," Malcador said to his long time friend, Neoth, when they saw the Princess's retribution. Poor Magnus was still trying to figure out where all of his research got moved to.
"Ha! I'm taking notes," the Emperor snorted before addressing his red son, "Magnus, you do know this is an illusion, right?"
The Scarlet King froze, then snapped his fingers. The frilly pink nightmare dissolved before their eyes and his library was back to normal. No tome had been moved; the reorganization had also been a trick.
"She got you good!" The Master of Mankind laughed at Magnus's expense and the Sigilite couldn't help but join him.
