Excellent stuff. I told you we needed more 9th and Cally.

Lovely! I hope this becomes a series.
But Cally does wear dresses.

Even if she does wear dresses, that seemed pretty Cally to me. :)

Nice. I especially like the last line. :)
And thanks for the heads up concerning redstarrobot's story, which I otherwise wouldn't have seen.

Hmmmm....
There were an awful lot of women "passing" for male in earlier centuries, who - to modern eyes - looked indisputably female. I have a theory that it was because the gender barriers were drawn so much more tightly in past eras, so people expected people who wore trousers/breeches/trunk hose to be male, and generally interpreted what they saw in line with their preconceptions.
Cally, with her lean build and somewhat angular features, would probably be taken for a boy - or as you said, a castrati.
