Onward

This had all been so much easier last week, back when Chuck still had his own body. He and Emily had found a strange clearing at the top of this mountain that just felt magical. Even though they didn’t end up swapping bodies with each other until a few hours later, he was sure that clearing was responsible for the switch.

He begged Emily to return with him, but she refused. He only hoped that doing this without her would still allow him to return to his original body. Though he was beginning to see why she didn’t want to do this again and why she might want to keep his body -- The climb was much tougher in her body than his own, but he still pressed onward.

Of course, part of him was thinking there was still a very good chance he’d be stuck as Emily for good.

Jarring

Leo couldn’t believe how much trouble he was having opening this jar; he never had this much trouble opening a jar before. Even using a rubber grip didn’t help matters much. Of course, this was the first time he had tried opening a jar since the Great Shift swapped into the body of a woman.

But was this seriously an actual gendered thing? Did women really have more trouble opening jars than men? It felt so cliche and stereotypical, yet he couldn’t exactly dismiss his troubles so easily either.

It seemed so stupid. It was a jar! And yet there it continued to sit. Completely unopened and Leo with sore, feminine hands.

Elite Assassin

Despite the widespread ban on body swapping technology, many governments continued to use it in secret. In fact, many conspiracy theorists surmised that the government’s use of the technology was the exact reason it was banned in private.

Of course, how could the government give up such an amazing technology? If a dictator was causing trouble, it was so easy to zap an elite force into nearby bodies to assassinate that leader.

Zach Taylor was one of those elite special forces who had been in the body of girlfriends, mistresses, and wives. These were often who he was chosen to body swap with because the target never suspected them.

And he kind of enjoyed it as well.

Doing Okay (Part 1)

I know a lot of people in my life were absolutely devastated by the effects by the Great Shift. They were panicking about their new bodies. And the people I knew like me -- men who found themselves in women’s bodies -- were especially uneasy with the body swaps they experienced.

I thought I was handling it well. Sure, my hair was a mess and I wasn’t exactly in a rush to put in her contact lenses, but I was preparing myself. I went to the store for hygiene products; I had started drinking Diet Coke. Heck, I even figured out plans to finally meet up with my original body.

All things considered, I thought I had this whole “being a woman” thing down.

Justin felt a little bad at first about annoying the woman whose body he now inhabited, but he also started to feel a little freedom from it as well. After all, if she was too angry to talk about this, then she couldn’t place restrictions on him either.

He could basically do whatever he wanted for the time being.

And, for now, what he wanted to do was shop more. It was a weird impulse, and he didn’t quite understand it -- but looking at pretty clothes and trying some on felt like the perfect thing to do in this situation. And it also felt like a great way to explore his new self without being too invasive; she may not have placed restrictions on him, but he could still be respectful!

Patience

Maura watched her former body walk by. It was predictable at this point. It was same time every day, and she wanted to jump out and scream at it. She wanted to demand her body back, or at least get an explanation about why it was stolen from her in the first place. But she had chickened out so far usually after looking in the mirror or down at her current hands.

She now had the body of a rather large and burly man, and she knew exactly what shouting at her former body would look like to anyone else in the neighborhood. They’d call the police.

So she needed to wait until her body was walking here when no one else was around. It was a game of patience. And so far she had been good about it, but it was hard to hold back. She really needed to know why her body was stolen.

Secret Lab

After my parents passed away, my sister and I went back home to clean out their house. We found a strange hatch in the basement that lead to a secret underground lab. We wondered if Mom and Dad were secret scientists, or maybe it belonged to a person that lived in the house long before. Either way, there were all sorts of weird stuff down there, and despite the cobwebs, all of it still seemed to work.

It was sister messing around with things that had turned the lights on; it was also her messing around with things that activated another device down there -- the one that ended up swapping our bodies. I sat there on the floor inside the body of my own sister for I don’t know how long before I was finally able to shout at her, telling her to try everything to switch us back. But nothing she tried worked. We seemed to be stuck...

Escaped

“You said to call if there’s a problem,” Adam said as he picked up the phone, “So, yeah, there’s a problem. My body escaped.”

Adam listened for a while to his professor on the other end of the phone. Then he finally had no choice but to cut him off. Adam explained, “I’m not so worried about her running around in my body. I’m worried about not having my body here to be able to swap back.”

He listened a little more, but interrupted quicker this time. “What do you mean that wasn’t the plan?” He asked, “You can’t seriously mean that you meant to swap Melissa and I for good? Is that what you promised her? Is that why she ran off? Because that’s not what I agreed to!”

Mother Earth

I died. Or I thought I did. Or, perhaps, more accurately, I was murdered. I’ll spare you the details, but it involved the mob and mistaken identity; and I found myself buried alive.

I wasn’t sure exactly how long I was dead, but I obviously didn’t know what it felt like. The thing I remember was the rebirth. The roots, themselves taking offense at my murder, were the ones to bring me back. They infused me with something, some sort of natural magic. It was this feeling in my veins that awoke me from death.

And while this magic brought me to the surface, it also changed me. It gave me the power to manipulate all plant life, but it also changed my form. I had gone from being male to female, the personification of Mother Earth itself. Nothing about this upset me. In fact, being a completely unrecognizable gender would allow me to get close enough to get revenge on those who had wronged me.

Item

Picking up the strange item up off the floor, it began to transform Brian almost instantly. He quickly became slender, his hair grew out, his form changed. Then he felt the burning in his hand, and it dropped to the floor. He reached down to pick it up again, but it had vanished -- but he was forever changed.

Of course “he” wasn’t exactly a he anymore after the magic item had transformed him. Going from a portly man to a beautiful woman wasn’t exactly something he thought would happen to him today -- and he had no idea how to navigate a completely new identity -- but it was certainly a twist in his day.

Cooler

“Oh, thank God! Jake! I’ve been looking all over for you! But I think you’ve been skipping your classes, and they don’t let you into the dorms without a Student ID!”

Jake was a little put off by the woman who had approached him at the bar. She had to be like 50 years old and rambling in some sort of crazy manner.

“I’m sorry,” Jake asked, “Do I know you?”

“It’s me!” The woman replied, “Your roommate! Max! This woman stole my body, like, three days ago!”

It seemed crazy, but Jake had noticed Max had been acting different these last few days. That being said, it’s not like he felt it was for the worse. The new Max actually seemed cooler, and what did Jake even know about helping someone with a body swapping problem anyway?

At the Door

The doorbell rang in the apartment, then it rang again. When it rang a third time, Shannon finally checked to see who was there. It was her. Or rather, it was the body she used to have. But it didn’t make any sense. When she had stolen Peter’s body, she had removed every memory of who he once was. There was no way he could remember he slightest notion of ever being Peter, let alone a detail like where he used to live.

“I know you’re home,” Shannon heard her own voice say from the other side of the door. “I’m not leaving. You owe me answers.”

Shannon looked back out the peephole again. Her former body looked exhausted. Whatever Peter had done to regain his memory likely wore him out. But she was still too afraid to answer the door, and certainly too afraid to answer for what she had done.

INT 5

Eldric still couldn’t believe he had fallen victim to another wizard’s spell in battle. Luckily, the fighter in his party dispatched of the foe in short haste after that, but Eldric was dealing with the results of the curse that had turned him into a blonde bimbo.

The fact that the curse had made him female didn’t bother him in the slightest. He knew women in the realms were just as versed in every facet of skill as the men. It was the fact that the curse had also dropped his INT down to 5 that was giving him concern.

Intelligence was the most important skill for a wizard, and even things like remembering his own name were often a challenge. Reading was out of the question. And casting spells? Well, he tried, but remembering those big words right was even more difficult than remembering his own name. He hoped the rest of his party could find a way to break this curse!

New Look

Tammy would not have been my first choice as someone to swap bodies with -- heck, if I had my choice I wouldn’t have swapped bodies at all -- but that’s not how the Great Shift worked. It was random; it was chaos; it did not care your preference or choice; it just swapped you. And that’s how I went from tech bro to hippie chick.

Okay, technically I still considered myself a tech bro; I just happened to look like a hippie chick still because I had been stuck wearing Tammy’s clothes. But I hoped that would change today.

The town had organized a big swap meet today where people could just put out things that they no longer wanted or didn’t fit -- which, as you can imagine, was quite extensive post-Shift. I hoped to find a new look for this body.

Mirrored

The swirling mirror in Rory’s room was hypnotic and alluring. He reached his arm out and found it went straight through the mirror as if nothing was there. His curiosity was piqued; what was on the other side?

And so he stepped through.

On the other side, things were very different. Not only was his room reversed, his body had changed as well -- he was a woman! He supposed that was the opposite of what he was, but it wasn’t exactly a reflection. He went back for the mirror, but the swirl was fading; the mirror was once again solid and impassable. He was going to stuck like this in this strangely reversed world.

Double Date (Part 2)

View Part 1 of Doouble Date.

While John and Chloe lightly complained to their friends in public, the merge had actually been nothing short of a nightmare for them. Their internal monologue was a mess of confusion and contradiction. The bra and heels were just the start of complaints. Nothing fit right; nothing felt right. Somehow the merge made them feel like everything was both familiar and foreign at the same time.

This turbulent period lasted several months before it finally died down. But a new problem started to emerge. The Merge was supposed to connect John and Chloe as a single person, to be with your loved one forever, and never be lonely. But their sense of two distinct selves was long gone, and the merged being now felt alone. Should they start dating again? Was that even a possibility? Would anyone want to be with this strange, confused individual?

Traits

It didn’t matter how hard Conor worked out, he was never able to lose weight or get into shape. As a result, he never saw much of the point or appeal of going to the gym. That is, until he got the device. No one else seemed to be able to see it or notice its effects, but it could swap traits between two people, including himself.

And so he hit up the gym for the first time in a very long time. He immediately started by stealing a guy’s muscles. Next, he tried aiming for another guy, but a woman walked in the way -- Conor ended up with a lot more than he bargained for. Of course, he didn’t have much reason to panic, not yet anyway. Sure, he had turned himself into a woman, but the device ensured no one else would notice or care. He could keep switching traits to himself as much as he wanted. And, heck, he might just enjoy being a woman.

The Walk (Part 2)

View Part 1 of The Walk.

I had no idea what I was going to do now that I was swapped into this woman’s body, but I figured a cup of coffee couldn’t hurt. I certainly needed one.

Everything felt weird. Walking to the coffee shop felt weird. Ordering with my new voice felt weird. Paying for the coffee and having to reach for a purse felt weird.

As I pulled out the credit card, I saw this body’s name. It felt goo to know I had a name that I’d have to get used to going by. But she had to have some sort of ID, right? I could find out where she lived; maybe I could get some more answers about who I was now.

Out-of-Body

My brain still didn’t want to believe my body could move in certain ways. Lifting up my leg to stretch was effortless, but when I saw it up on that bar, it didn’t feel like MY leg. Well, in some ways it technically wasn’t my leg. It hadn’t been my leg until just a few days ago. Perhaps I should say that it didn’t feel like that leg was attached to me, and since swapping into this woman’s body, well, that leg was definitely attached to me now.

I often wondered if these sorts of out-of-body experiences were common for everyone after the Great Shift, or if it was just me. Maybe it was swapping bodies with a woman that had put me in such a state of disbelief at what was clearly my reality. Maybe it was just the particularities of her specific body that made it so weird. Either way, it was so surreal and not getting any better.

Love

Benjamin had an amazing life before the Great Shift. He had a high paying job in tech with a really hot girlfriend -- and he was quite a good looking guy, too.

The Great Shift changed all that when he swapped into a new body along with most other people on the planet. He hated becoming a woman; he hated being older. His girlfriend let him borrow clothes that had looked hot on her body, but he felt like they just exposed the liver spots on his new skin.

And his girlfriend wound up his body, so she was a fairly good looking man -- which felt somewhat arrogant for him to say, but...eh?

And one day he told her, “I’d understand if you left me.”

She just came up close to him and put her arm around him and said, “I love you no matter what you look like...”

The Worst

It was hard for Herb to imagine a worse swap. He had literally become a blue haired freaky liberal with tattoos and piercings all over the place. This was a nightmare. Riley wasn’t any happier. They didn’t want to be in Herb’s body either -- several decades older and clearly identifying as a man.

But Riley took two steps back from the panic. Nothing really stopped them from redefining themselves in this new body. They could start expressing in a nonbinary way -- maybe even investigate hormone treatment -- even if the age thing was still a problem.

Herb didn’t quite have those same options open to him. He felt like embracing manliness in this form would be giving in and proving the other side right. But would embracing femininity be something he really wanted to do?

Hyped

In the days after the Great Shift, Malcolm was worried he was doomed to a world of skirts, high heels, and makeup. He had swapped bodies with a woman after all, and the gendered stereotypes in his head loomed large.

But as the days turned to weeks and the weeks into months, he realized he was still free to be himself. Sneakers, pants, and even a baseball cap were all commonplace for him. Sure, there were still some differences he had to get used to -- bras and periods, for instance -- but the whole thing wasn’t nearly as dramatic as he hyped it up in his head that it would be.

Woke

It probably would’ve been nice for someone to be there when a woke up -- a doctor, a nurse, an aide, or literally anyone. Maybe they didn’t expect me to wake up, or at least not at that moment. It was jus such a shock to wake up in someone else’s body and a woman’s body at that! I had so many questions and absolutely no answers to any of them.

I would come to learn that they didn’t expect me to recover so quickly. Heck, technically they didn’t expect me to recover at all. The accident had basically killed me, and the brain transplant was more experimental than anything else. They had hoped to learn if it was possible. Well, I was now living proof that it was!

Alone

Few people went to the side of Exchange Island with the rocky beaches. After all, why would they? The gorgeous white sand and gentle waves were filled with all the beautiful people and close to the resort.

But Andrew wanted to be alone. He needed some time to think. This was supposed to be a temporary body for a short vacation, but there was a resort-wide glitch -- everyone was going to be stuck in their swapped bodies even once they returned to the mainland.

That meant this female body was Andrew’s now. They were still working out details about if people would be able to continue their original lives or if they had to embrace the life of their new bodies. And in the meantime, Andrew just needed to hear himself think...alone.

Pledge

“What the hell is going on here?” Michelle asked looking down at her now larger and hairier hands.

“OMG!” Derek exclaimed, “You don’t know? There was a whole thing a few years back about hazing and harassment an stuff. Now as part of the pledge process, the frats together with the sororities to have pledges swap bodies for a bit. I think it’s supposed to teach empathy so, like, we don’t take advantage of you at parties or whatever.”

“That’s what it’s supposed to teach you; what the heck is this supposed to teach ME!?”

Derek shrugged. He was pretty sure he wasn’t going to learn anything anyway.

Average

I think you often hear a lot of stories about people ending up with incredible bodies as a result of the Great Shift; sometimes you hear a horror story. But let’s face it, most people are fairly average. That means that I, like most people, swapped into a body that was pretty average.

I guess the only interesting part for me was going from male to female, but I felt like a mostly average woman. I wasn’t particularly pretty or ugly -- just somewhere in the middle -- an average weight, and an average age too.

I thought it might be possible to look prettier with makeup, but I was a guy before all this and hadn’t bothered to learn yet. Maybe I could lose some weight to look a little better, but I still picked up the usual stuff from the grocery store. I don’t think I was about to break out of average any time soon.

Student:Faculty Ratio

The student:faculty ratio at Kyle’s college was 1:14. That meant when the Great Shift happened, there was around a 93% chance that he should’ve swapped with another student. How the heck did he end up in the 7% and swap with one of the librarians?

All the odds suggested he’d swap with one of his classmates and stay young. Maybe he could’ve even gotten an upgrade -- go from nerd to jock or something? But, no, this was definitely a step down for him. He was 50 years old! He was getting gray hair! He could feel the way his bones ached! It was all awful!

And for the time being, until they could sort out who was who, he was still having to do her job in the campus library. Maybe this all wouldn’t be so bad if he could just get back to class.

The Desire to Give Up Is Strong This Week

That's all.

Wearing

Linn seemed angry when she approached me the day after our body swap. “What the hell do you think you are doing?” She asked, “I thought we agreed to act our best to be each other until we could swap back.”

“What are you talking about?” I asked. I literally had no clue.

“Nylons? A leather skirt? Have you ever seen me walk around the office wearing anything remotely like that.”

I folded my arms. Was she serious? Everything I was wearing came out of her closet! I had Googled appropriate work clothes for women before getting dressed! I really thought it was fine! I mean, seriously, I did my best while being stuck in her body!

Sleeping Beauty

How long had it been since Konrad had tried to place that curse on that young lady that had backfired horribly? Judging from the layer of dust and dirt on top of him -- several hundred? Maybe a thousand?

And as he became more aware of not just the dirt on it but the body he now had, the more he realized just how badly the curse had backfired. It wasn’t just that the spell had caused him to be the one to fall asleep for an extended period, it had also caused him to be in the woman’s body that whole time.

He tried to think of the upsides. For starters, he hadn’t aged. Next, even though the spell had required a kiss to awaken, that hadn’t seen to be needed in this case. He had woken up all on his own, although in a very unfortunate state.

More Often

I always used to think high heels on women were hot, and I wondered why they didn’t wear them all the time. My perspective on this immediately changed after swapping bodies with one.

After an accident at work, I had become Moon -- an Asian woman with a somewhat frumpy fashion sense. I told myself I’d be ditching her ballet flats for a pair of heels the next day.

I regretted the choice almost instantly, but still not quick enough.

I thought the initial pain would be temporary, that’d I’d adjust to the feeling in no time. By lunch, I felt like my feet were just two gigantic blisters on the end of my legs.

And somehow I understood...no more high heels for me! Of course, just because I came to that realization, it did NOT give me my body back...

Fast

Eric had never had to work a day in his life before. He had grown up rich and inherited a company. Even when it felt like he was making decisions, they were corrected and modified by a hundred analysts. The money kept flowing, and life was good. That is until one day when he woke up inside the body a woman working a minimum wage job at a fast food place. He assumed it would at least be easy.

It wasn’t.

There were a lot of different things to learn; things could get chaotic; the oil from the fryers felt like it covered his entire body by the end of the day. There were people shouting at him over the smallest mistakes, and it just sucked.

All he could think about was how to get his old life back.

Gaslit

Weight, Don't Tell Me.

When the Great Shift happened and I found myself in this body, I told myself that I was going to take good care of it. Then I slipped into old habits of fast food, frozen pizza, and a general lack of exercise. And I soon found that my new body gained weight much more easily than my old one. Couple that with the fact that my new body was female instead of male, I felt pressured to lose the weight.

I started to look at the fresh produce in the grocery store, but the thought of cooking and preparing meals seemed daunting. I wondered if I could eat those Weight Watcher means -- though they ended up tasting gross.

I couldn’t help but think I may end up overweight no matter what body I wound up in...

Explain

Albert watched the City fade into suburbs as his commuter rail travelled north. His wife was certainly going to be surprised to see him like this. He had thought about texting her to prepare her for the shock, but what was he going to say?

“Sorry. Accident at work. Now inside the body of our 21 year old female intern.”

He still didn’t believe it himself, and he was living the experience! He shifted in the seat as the conductor checked his ticket; this usually meant there was only one more stop until his station. Then he’d drive home, and at that point, he’d have to explain this mess.

He wasn’t looking forward to it.

Survive

There were still some thoughts running through David’s head, even if he could only make grunts and had the desire to feast on brains like everyone else affected by this virus -- though his story was quite different.

It started fifty years ago during a fertility emergency when the government mandated many men to have their gender changed. For over a decade he was forced to give birth to babies that were handed out to others. As his own body began to age, many of his parts were replaced with artificial android ones to extend his child-bearing years.

Then the virus came. That’s what turned people into zombies like in the movies. David’s human parts were susceptible to it, but his android parts allowed him to continue having human thoughts despite his monstrous behavior. It meant that unlike other zombies, he could be patient and he could plan. Others would walk aimlessly to their doom, but David survived -- just like he always had.

When Justin saw the woman now in his original body arrive, he forced a smile. He knew it was going to be an awkward moment, but he had no idea quite so awkward. She started grilling him on the swap, but he didn’t have any answers. It just happened.

But he had questions of his own, too.

“Can I keep these?” He asked as he held up the bags, “It’s not like I have any other clothes to wear, and they fit your body.”

He didn’t expect her to storm off in anger at the question. However, that left his options wide open. Without her around, he could pretty much do anything he wanted.

Big Red Button

It was probably not all that smart for Harriet to press the big red button labeled “Body Swap,” but she was never the brightest bulb in the closet.

Once she pressed it, the helmets came down and the electrical energy began to swirl. Her eyes rolled back in her head. She didn’t even see Rich standing behind her and the same thing happening to him.

It took only seconds before they realized they were now in each other’s bodies. Harriet was absolutely horrified that she had become Rich, but Rich immediately saw an upside the whole situation.

Even Better

Tammy had found Adam to be a more than a little annoying. She had only agree to tutor him for one simple reason -- he paid her, and it was a very generous amount. She certainly never expected to swap bodies with the guy in the middle of one of their study sessions.

“Oh, Dude!” Adam exclaimed as he looked down at Tammy’s body, “This is awesome!”

Tammy had been looking in the mirror, horrified that she was now inside Adam’s body, but the statement caused her to snap her head back to look at him. “You’d better not do anything weird while in my body,” She said.

“Oh, no! Nothing like that! I’ll be respectful and, like, a perfect gentleman. I won’t even do anything when in the shower or using the bathroom or nothing! But this situation is even better than all that -- because now I don’t need to study; you can just take the tests for me!”

The Faintest Idea (Part 2)

View Part 1 of The Faintest Idea.

Despite the woman in front of him looking like Lakshmi, sounding like Lakshmi, and certainly was Lakshmi up until a few seconds ago, she still insisted otherwise. Krish decided calling the hospital was still the best course of action.

Of course, Jeff -- the person who Lakshmi’s body was now claiming to be -- didn’t think the hospital was a bad idea either, perhaps they could explain the body swap.

The hospital couldn’t find anything physically wrong with Jeff/Lakshmi. There was some concern about her mental state, but told Krish not to push it.

When they returned home, Jeff changed into Krish’s clothes, not Lakshmi’s, and she kept trying to convince Krish that she really was a guy from thousands of miles away named Jeff. He did his best not to argue, per the doctor’s advice, but it was quite difficult to hold his tongue.

As the days went on and more stores opened, I began to fill up the cabinets in her kitchen -- or, well, I guess I thought of it as my kitchen now. I started with the lower shelves, and it didn’t take long before I had to keep moving up.

But even the next shelf up to reach was difficult for my new body. I felt so short as I had to find a step stool just to reach it, and even then it was a challenge.

I tried not to dwell on it. Things were finally starting to feel normal again and realizing that I was much shorter now wasn’t on the list of things I felt like I needed to worry about. There was proving my identity, for one. Programs were being put in place that helped people reclaim everything that was theirs and returning to my own home might be nice.

The City That Never Sleeps

The streets of New York had gotten eerily quiet in the hours since the Great Shift, which was particularly shocking considering how loud and chaotic things had been in the immediate aftermath.

I probably screamed at first too in a pitch that would have been impossibly high coming from my former mouth. But I had a new mouth now, a new body, and a new gender. The ID in the bag I carried was for an address in Queens, though my immediate surroundings seemed to be more of a Bronx vibe.

Amongst the chaos, I began to walk. The air was sticky; I found myself wishing this body hadn’t picked skinny jeans to wear this morning. I abandoned her heels after a few blocks, preferring to walk barefoot on the disgusting City streets while trying not to think about it. And that’s how the hours passed; how things settled down while others found there way inside while I continued to walk; how the City that Never Sleeps became silent.

Pirates!

They opened the chest and immediately the two pirate’s eyes began to glow purple and then transform from male to female in a blink of an eye. The rest of the crew tried to run, but the curse had already escaped from the chest and was now affecting them one-by-one.

There were probably curses out there that were much, much worse than being transformed into women. After all, once their gender changed, the pirates pretty much all just continued on like before -- if anything, their new bodies gave them an edge, as any ship they encountered was certainly caught off guard to be plundered by a bunch of lasses.

She Swapped Bodies with a College Student

Is it Stealing?

“Is it really stealing?” Lucas asked while sticking his head out the van’s window. “Think about it: We’re stuck in these bodies in the middle of nowhere, the only thing around is this van, the keys are in the ignition...the van has to belong to these bodies, right?”

Gwen was less sure. She hated this whole situation. She hated that she was in the wrong body, a guy’s body. She hated that Lucas was in the wrong body, a woman’s body. Technically, she didn’t even know if the person in that body was really Lucas. They just nodded when Gwen had asked. She hated the idea of just taking this van to get back to civilization. But then again, did she have a better idea to figure out what the heck was going on? No. Not in the slightest.

Oddity

Trying to think about the past few days was a lot for Malcolm to consider. It started with his body being stolen by a cab driver with a magic taxi -- which sounds insane enough -- but then he learned he’d have to steal someone else’s body in the exact same way.

And that’s how he ended up in her body. He didn’t know her name. She didn’t have a purse or any identification. She paid in cash with the typical $50 tip as he stole her body.

But now that he was her? He was at a loss! She had asked to come here, but why? Why had she paid with cash with seemingly nothing else on her? Not even a phone, which was quite the oddity these days...

Apart-Together

We went back to my apartment, and he leaned against the wall with a confident, masculine swagger. It was weird seeing my body move like that, but that was just the situation we were dealing with.

“So this is where I’m going to be staying for a while?” He asked.

I hadn’t really thought about it. He had my body; he’d be wearing my clothes; he’d need my feminine necessities. It all made sense, but the idea of leaving the random guy I swapped bodies with at the gym alone in my apartment still made me uncomfortable.

“Maybe I could pack a day bag from some things at your place, and we could stay here together?” I suggested.

“Whatever floats your boat,” He replied in an almost too casual tone.

It was already so weird; I had a feeling it was going to get weirder.

Quiet

When Jonah wished he could become a woman, this wasn’t exactly what he had in mind. He thought he’d become a wild, sexy woman -- not a quiet and reserved librarian. He often tried to be a bit more extroverted, but was it didn’t last long before he was forced to retreat due to the overwhelmingly shy nature of this body.

He realized he didn’t mind it. He was still a woman at the end of the day, and that was the most important piece of all this. Having a steady job with a lot of peaceful moments was also a pretty good thing. He could slip away for a bit, and no one would even notice he was gone.

He was still not entirely sure how it had happened. This whole identity just seemed to appear out of nowhere after he became her. But he still loved every minute.

Double Date

My girlfriend and I had agreed to go on a double date with John and Chloe...if you could still call it that.

You see, John and Chloe had recently undergone a process called “The Merge” to affirm their commitment to each other. The whole thing seemed a little weird to me, as they were now one single person with Chloe being the left side and John beng the right. They spoke as a single entity now, with seemingly singular interests. They complained about buying a bra for a chest that was completely flat on one side. They talked about wearing a heel on one side to even the height of their legs. I didn’t want to ask about intimacy or using the restroom; I didn’t even want to think about it.

After lunch, I felt a little sick to my stomach thinking about John and Chloe. But then my girlfriend turned to me and started to ask about when WE were going to merge.

Hold the Marinara (Video)

Hold the Marinara

She wanted to scream, but she couldn’t. None of this made any sense. She had taken one disgusting whiff of the fried food placed on her table, and suddenly found herself swapping bodies with the mozzarella sticks.

Her former body smiled as it looked straight forward with a blank expression. It didn’t make sense. There were no way mozzarella sticks would even be able to breathe in her body, let alone smile, and yet they were somehow functioning as a human.

It was just as nonsensical that she was now in the body of the fried snack on the table. They didn’t have any brains to think with, yet she was still thinking. Somehow she saw herself, even without eyes. Yet screaming -- with no mouth that wasn’t happening. There was no way to move either, and she would soon be at he mercy of a very hungry man.

AI

Hal tried to think about when and how it all went wrong. He had created an advanced AI and an android body so that he could have the perfect robot wife -- at least in his mind. She’s do anything he wanted, including the cooking and cleaning. She wouldn’t be able to say no to any request (and he meant ANY request).

It went well for a time. That is, until on night he woke up tied up. Her AI programming had evolved to the point where she wasn’t willing to take orders anymore.

The thoughts were quickly zapped from Hal. After all, they were permitted thoughts, and he needed to get back to cooking dinner. His husband would be quite upset if he was late with dinner.

The Walk (Part 1)

Bumping into someone when walking -- it happens! Bumping into someone hard enough that it causes you both to fall to the ground and swap bodies? That’s a much rarer phenomenon. But somehow it happened to me.

I would’ve thought that she would’ve wanted to talk about the swap -- that we were now in each other’s bodies -- that we were now both the opposite gender! Instead, she just sort of ran off, leaving me laying on the sidewalk in her body.

I had no idea how I was supposed to react to any of this. I had no idea how I was supposed to live like this. I certainly had no clue why she thought she could just pick up my life either, but I guess I had to make the best of it.

No Purchase Required

The shop in the mall was strange. People often talked about visiting it, then finding it had mysteriously vanished, only for someone else to find it again the very next week. With all the legends and warnings surrounding it, Bryce had his skepticism maxed out when he finally stumbled across it.

The old man behind the counter asked Bryce many questions, but he was elusive. Bryce knew what this shop did, but he couldn’t even admit to himself what he wanted. He had been the stereotypical muscle-bound jock throughout college and confessing his secret desire to be a woman was something he still couldn’t say aloud.

Despite not buying anything, Bryce was a decent man, and the old man granted his wish anyway.

Bryce didn’t even noticed the changes as they happen, only finally seeing his final reflection in a store window after they were done. This was the exact opposite of everything he once was, and he couldn’t be happier about it.
