What had she done?  That was a good question; the kind that hit Gerlinde in her stomach with a sack of ice.  The kind that demanded answering.<br/><br/>She kept her hand cycling as she worked out what to say.  The smooth turn of her palm on the lean of Lisle's cheek was soothing; it brought to mind Yoga classes, where she had learned that breathing rhythm governed the energy of the body.  Rubbing Lisle's cheek, exploring its soft, endorsing the blush and press of the girl - these would serve as the breathing rhythm of Gerlinde's soul while she tried to cut that question into an answer that was not frightening or strange.<br/><br/>She kept her eyes stable, too - sky blue; the color of levitation.  She let Lisle hide her wondering, pained green eyes there.  She took calm from it herself.<br/><br/>She kept silent for about four seconds, then answered.  "You're a little more special now.  It's like we talked about - I have to make you that way so you get treated special."<br/><br/>Gerlinde fought down the urge to swallow hard as she thought on what making Lisle special had meant.  She fought down the demand of her suddenly rigid cock, as its branchlike hardness gouged at her for attention.  Part of her was transfixed by that point - a part that put a sultry breathiness in her voice.<br/><br/>"You're a kitty now.  Becoming one."  She bore down on that voice to keep it steady.  Her heart melted a bit, dripping sympathy, as she thought of what was now beyond Lisle - piano lessons, video games, driving.  Her balls ached happily in thought of what was to come.  "I made your hands into paws.  I made your legs more feline.  You'll find you can balance on them fine."<br/><br/>Her hand circled steadily, petting confidently - a confidence Gerlinde was resolute in feeling.  "It's scary for you, but everything is alright.  You'll be alright.<br/><br/>"You can tell me anything."  Gerlinde didn't know why she said it.  She didn't know why she fell silent with listening.  Perhaps, she wondered, she wanted someone to listen to her own horror.
