A year after the Great Shift, Alex had the strangest encounter...with himself! Or, rather, it was with the person now in his body. The woman in his body had hated being male. She hated what the Shift had done to her. She drank heavily and had tried to commit suicide more than a few times. Alex finally realized how lucky he had it. He had tried to better his life since the Shift. He saw it as a new start, a new life, and a way to have new experiences. He had truly fared well.

Sometimes comments are amazing...

This post on one of my archive sites got one of the most epic comments ever. I was sort of floored at how someone would break down a caption, interpret it, and dispute it so thoroughly.

Broke down (Part 1)

Luke couldn’t imagine the kind of trouble he’d be in when he finally got back. He was already running late when his car broke down. It wouldn’t be the biggest deal in the world except for the fact that he had cast a spell with his friend Gretta that swapped their bodies. If he didn’t get back within the hour, the body swap would be permanent. While he had enjoyed his day, and he certainly wouldn’t mind keeping her body forever, he knew she wouldn’t be so thrilled. He tried starting the car again to no avail, his cell phone had no bars, and no cars had passed by since the break down. He started walking down the road in hopes of finding someone -- though he hadn’t remember seeing anything as he passed. He felt a little silly doing so with what he was wearing; he had wished he brought a change of clothes on his trip to the beach!

Eric searched through the house. It was run down with holes in the walls and graffiti everywhere. There was no electricity and no phone. He sighed. He was miles away from anyone inside the body of a woman, and he had no way to contact the outside world. The situation sent chills up his back.

Improbable (Part 2)

Jason decided he’d introduce himself to his double. He tried to smile as he headed over, but it was the act of walking that clued Jason in on what was really happening. Walking just felt weird -- from the shoes on his feet to the hair on his head. He looked down to see his new body, and he realized he wasn’t headed to see his double, but rather he was going to see the person he just switched bodies with! He decided that he should try to wipe the smile off his face; it could send the wrong impression!
