Description Hey everyone, I know it has been awhile since you've heard from me. Sorry about that. Hopefully, I'll be able to keep my motivation up and start doing more writing more consistently. 

Here is the second chapter of School Spirit. Lena is learning more about her new body and having to deal with her younger sister.  A few disclaimers: this chapter, in particular, contains no transformations. While I do enjoy writing the transformation sequences themselves, I have had just as much fun trying to write the after-effects of the transformation; though I understand some may not share that view. There will be more transformations to come with this story. Also, for those who haven't been completely drawn in by School Spirit as you have with some of my others, don't worry. I'm not planning on focusing on this one at the expense of other writing. In other words, you shouldn't have to wait for me to finish School Spirit before you see different stories from me again. 

Following in my own tradition, I have NOT proof-read this before posting, so if there are any glaring errors, please let me know and I will change it. As with the first chapter, feel free to give me content feedback and I may decide to do some editing based on that feedback. And as always, please be civil; criticism is accepted, but please keep it constructive. If this genre of story is not your cup of tea, please move along and refrain from passing judgement on those who enjoy this particular brand.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy.

EDIT (7/15/16): I removed certain aspects of the ending of this chapter and updated the file.

What a cool story! Except for the transformation itself of course, it all sounded so realistic. I love these detailled psychological aspects.
(Good thing i learned english in school instead of french.) I hope, you will proceed with this story soon.

I don't think you have much at all to apologize for in this ongoing story--you're being quite thoughtful about the changes the new anatomy would have on her daily life and how she'd interact with people.  She's in for some mental issues--her memories are in a different body than the one that shaped her earlier, there will be new urges and instincts.  I thought the 'preview' at the end was a bit out of place, but I very much enjoy this tale and hope you don't subordinate it to your other work.

Just asking, when are you writing another tg story?
Thanks, and awesome story so far.

Thanks.

Sadly, I don't think I can offer a time-frame. I always have different story ideas (many of which TG-related) swirling around in my head; hopefully I'll be able to focus on one enough to put it down on paper soon. I have a couple of somewhat concrete ideas at the moment. But I am also fairly busy with school, which has affected my creative productivity. The best I can say is that there will be more.

My most recent TG story (The Drink) was removed from Deviantart due to content violating the terms of service. It was kind of the sequel to The Vaccine. If you didn't have a chance to see that one before it got taken down (I think it was up for a week), I have posted it elsewhere. Feel free to PM me and I can send you a link to that story.

Yes I did read that one and it was amazing. And I understand you can't get another tg in because of school.

A great chapter.  Lena is learning quickly.
I found 2 errors, but I lost one of them. 

After a bit, I let Aurora go and laid up partially onto my belly, though I allowed my hind legs too sit out to the side.
too should be to

edit:
Found the other error.

I felt a discomfort in my guy and I frowned.
guy should be gut

Wait.  You said you didn't proof-read this?  I'm not sure I believe that...

I'm glad you like it so far. Thanks for pointing out some typos for me, I'll make sure they get changed.

And yeah, I finish a story or chapter and then submit it almost immediately. I imagine the quality of my writing (wherever you want to rate it) is probably a skill built from necessity. I am in graduate school right now and have to write a lot of papers. The problem is, I really do not like proof-reading my work, so I usually don't. Therefore, I have had to become incredibly conscientious while writing so I don't lose too many points

I think you managed to roll the writing and proofreading into one step.
