Blog: Magic Glasses

It was bound to happen. Heck, I’m shocked Attitude didn’t do it before.

I’ve mentioned several times before that faerie magic can’t really affect me, not without the faerie making tremendous efforts to make the spell stick–and even then, it’s not going to be for very long. The problem is, that immunity (or, for you gamers out there, that magical resistance) only applies to my self, not to objects I’m using or wearing. Like my glasses.

I should back up.

Last night, Attitude was in one of those moods. She had spent most of the day (or, at least, claims that that’s what she did) discreetly following Jo around to see if she could find out more about the Unknown Faerie that might be affecting her. That apparently did not go according to plan and she came back home fuming. Maybe my tone was a bit too cheerful, but she did not like my encouragements and told me to shut up. I may have made things worse by rolling my eyes and giving her some sass (“Well, excUUUUUse me for caring.”). She just snapped, turned in my direction, and flung a spell like a pitcher throws a baseball. It hit me squarely between the eyes, leaving me momentarily dizzy before my “immunity” dissipated the magic. It was only this morning, after I left my place, that I discovered what she’d done.

My glasses now see through everyone’s clothes. EVERYONE’S.

It wasn’t so bad standing near a total hottie and (discreetly) ogling her assets and hoping she didn’t notice my raging hard-on, but the chubby and hairy bus driver was a big turn off.

It was much, much worse at the office, sitting across from Jo and watching her type emails on her computer with complete professionalism, unaware that through my glasses, she was stark naked. (And the boobs on that girl are spectacular, let me tell you.)

I sported a rather big boner all afternoon. I was glad she had to leave on time. I made up some excuse that I had to stay a bit longer to wrap up some projects, so I had time to “calm down” before leaving.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but spells cast on inanimate objects tend to be easier to do and last longer. So I don’t know how long I’ll be able to see through everyone’s clothes this way…
