Well, at least now you were finally getting the chance to introduce yourself to your new neighbor. It felt kind of weird thinking of her as 'the girl' in your head. Hopefully after you gave your explanations she'd be willing to introduce herself back to you.
"So, uh... my name's Shujin. Shujin Kou. I'm a new student at Pandora, this coming week will be my third one at the school. My esper only awakened recently which is why I'm only just now going. As you felt- saw, sorry," You corrected yourself, wincing as the bespectacled girl's cheeks flushed at the reminder that you'd done a reverse face-plant into her bountiful backside only a couple of minutes ago.
Continuing on...
"I live in the apartment complex across the street from you, I was heading home for the day when I saw you outside your, uh, house?" You stuttered a bit at the end. How come you were living in a small (nice and well-kept, but small) apartment while this girl had a whole house to yourself?
Eh, that was a question for later. The look on the girl's face- not quite angry, but still very flustered and more than a little upset- propelled you on. You knew she was waiting for you to get to the part about how your esper worked.
"And, uh, I guess you've been waiting for this part, but as for my Esper..."
"You can shrink things with it?!" The girl's agitated voice spoke up, a look of hope on her face and driving back some of the redness of her cheeks.
"Er... not exactly. I can only shrink myself."
And like that the hopeful expression was gone, replaced by a look of crestfallen confusion.
"But... a-are you sure?"
It was your power, so yes, you were pretty damn sure. Hell, even before being 'isekaied' into this world, you'd picked out a power perfectly tailored for your desires. You knew that your new neighbor was desperately hoping you'd have a power that would let her shrink her breasts (the very notion was heresy to you,) but regardless of what she wanted... even if you'd wanted to do such a thing, that flat-out wasn't how your power worked.
"Well... there is more to my Esper-" And the hopeful expression on the girl's pretty, bespectacled face started coming back...
"But I can only shrink myself, and even then, the effects aren't permanent. Hence why I... grew back to normal."
"Is... Is that so?" You wouldn't lie, you felt more than a little sympathetic at the defeated tone in the girl's voice.
"Yeah, and I'm still pretty new to using my Esper, and I don't have much control over it, which is why I grew back to normal at such a bad time."
"Aww... I thought for sure he'd be able to help me. Figures that the one person I meet with a size-changing Esper still can't fix these huge breasts..."
That probably hadn't been meant for your ears, but you heard the quiet whisper all the same.
"Though, shrinking myself isn't all I can do. The shrinking effect only lasts for ten minutes, but I do have another size-changing power that has permanent effects... though it can't change anything as drastic as making a regular-sized human suddenly tiny."
Maybe you should've just kept your mouth shut about your other power. Hell, that was your 'main' power, and now that you'd brought it up you'd have to spill the beans about it!
"What do you mean?" The dark-haired girl said, leaning forwards slightly. It took every ounce of your willpower to not look down at the way her huge chest strained the buttons along the front of her shirt- you knew from what you'd overheard that the complex she had about her chest stemmed from guys not being able to keep their eyes (or there comments) to themselves. Adding to her complex was the opposite of what you wanted.
Well, here went nothing.
"I can only shrink myself... but I can grow other things-" You outright flinched as the girl suddenly stepped back, a fearful expression on her face as she shielded her big bosom from your sight with both arms.
"Uh... what are you doing?" Well, you actually knew what she was doing (and why) but it still looked kind of funny. Plus, you had to play innocent right now anyway.
Obviously, for a girl who wanted to shrink her overly-ample bosom, being in the same room as a guy who'd as good as admitted he could grow a girl's breasts was a nightmare situation for her!
Well, okay. Maybe 'nightmare' was a bit harsh, but the almost panic-stricken look on her face told you she was not comfortable with learning that information.
Fortunately, your question did its job. You sounded innocent enough (and to be fair, you genuinely didn't have any intentions on swelling her chest. Not right now anyway. It was one thing to blow up a girl's boobs in the name of comedy, but another thing entirely to do it to someone who hated their appearance. That was just plain mean in your opinion.
"U-um... sorry. You're not going to..."
"Going to what?"
The girl's cheeks darkened once again, and she sputtered out the answer you predicted she would.
"M-make my breasts bigger..."
Yup, just as predicted.
"Why would I do that?"
You wouldn't lie, it was honestly kind of fun teasing her like this, seeing how her cheeks stayed beet-red, and she tried to stammer out a reply. At least your response seemed to calm down the girl a bit, as while her arms remained covering her chest, she stepped closer to you, no longer looking like a squirrel trying to bolt from a dog chasing after it.
"S-sorry... it's just... Oh, I can't believe I'm admitting this to someone I just met...... well, I-I have a bit of a complex about the size of my chest. All of the boys at my old school would look at me with such gross expressions on their faces. And the things they'd say about what they'd want me to do with them... or what they wanted to do with me... Ugh..."
Yeah, you couldn't blame her for being creeped out. Just because some guys could control themselves, it didn't mean every guy could. Shit like that made life hard for curvy, busty girls like your neighbor. Hopefully the inherently uplifting, comedic nature of the Harem Protagonist world helped her get better. This was an ecchi romcom world, not a more realistic (or depressing) slice of life world.
"And that wasn't all, but... because I developed early... some of the girls I thought were my friends started bullying me, accusing me of getting implants... But... I-I... I'm surprised that you don't seem to be like the other boys I knew... But in a good way!" She blurted out the last bit, an embarrassed expression on her face, as if she was trying to assure you that she hadn't been thinking poorly of you.
Damn, ecchi anime logic kicked ass. She'd (accidentally) sat on your face five minutes ago in a truly glorious 'lucky pervert' moment but still thought you were a million times better than the guys at her old school. On one hand that meant you had a really low bar to beat, and on the other hand...
Well, she definitely hadn't forgotten about the incident, judging by how her hands were now discretely hovering over the back of her skirt, as if the girl was imagining the sensation of her doughy cheeks squishing over your face again...
"C-can you show me how your Esper works? Please?"
Well, you hadn't expected her to ask that so bluntly, but on the other hand you weren't in the clear yet, so going along with the girl's wishes would probably get you the most brownie points.
"Sure. But... what exactly do you want me to do? Remember, I can shrink myself, or grow something else." The brown-eyed, black-haired beauty gulped nervously at the reminder, though this time she didn't try to hide her chest from your view (not that you were staring at them, anyway."
"M-maybe... you could shrink yourself again?"
Easy as pie. With a thought, the world once again grew and expanded around you, and mere seconds later you were looking way up into the slack-jawed expression of wonder on the girl's face.
You did your best to keep your eyes on hers, as you could just barely see her face beyond her ample bosom... and not staring up her skirt, which she'd inadvertenly provided you a perfect look up.
Sky-blue fabric met your vision before you jerked your head up, away from the unimpeded view up the girl's skirt.
Thankfully, you didn't have to fight the urge to peek long, as the girl reached down, and gently picked you up with two fingers, holding you delicately between the thumb and index fingers of her right hand.
"W-wow... It's true. And h-how long do you stay like this?"
"Only ten minutes. I was waiting downstairs for a while, and I came upstairs with just a minute or two left." A white lie, but again you didn't want her to know you'd been eavesdropping on her.
"A-and... when you grow things... the change is permanent?" Wow, her face was even prettier up close, with you getting a perfect look at the beautiful girl from your position now on the palm of her left hand.
"Yup. I can grow other people in all sorts of ways, but I can also grow inorganic material. Oh, and I can shrink inorganic material to. That change is also permanent. It's, uh, only when I shrink myself that the change is temporary."
"P-promise you won't make my breasts bigger?" Was she still on about that? Yeesh, her complex must've been pretty severe for her to still be nervous around you.
"Promise. You, uh, don't seem to like the size of your chest that much, so it'd be mean to mess with your body like that."
"Oh, that's a relief... but I thought boys liked big breasts?"
"Just because I love huge boobs I'm not going to just mess with you without your permission..."
That finally seemed to mollify the girl, as a smile began to spread across her face.
