Close Shave

When the Great Shift swapped Ben into the body of a woman, he rejoiced. It meant he no longer had to put up with shaving his face each and every morning. However, he soon discovered that as a woman there were plenty of other places that needed shaving -- though luckily not every day. Yet shaving his legs and armpits also took much more time. As he sat in the bathtub taking care of his beauty routine, he realized the trade off may not have been worth it. After all, now he not only had to put up with shaving, but he also had to contend with hair, makeup, and up-to-date fashions just to stay competitive and professional at work!

Brett tried to get a better look at Ami’s body -- no, a better look at HIS body! He had no idea how hard it was to check someone out from a first person perspective! He wondered if standing up would help, but he was having a bit of trouble. His mind had apparently not yet adjusted to the weight distribution of this new body. The best he could do for now was just to flip himself over. For the next few hours, he just worked on getting himself used to his new body as well as getting up on his own two feet!

Edgar was elated that the magic had worked and that he now had Julia’s body. Due to the nature of the magic, she wouldn’t notice the swap for several hours. He’d be long gone by then, but he stuck around a little while just to watch his own body act on autopilot. He pretended to look at shoes while keeping an eye on his former body. It was weird seeing it act as he normally would without him actually being in control anymore. Of course, he realized it might even be weirder once Julia takes control. She’d probably act quite feminine in his body. Speaking of which, he’d probably have to pick up some new mannerisms himself.

Mathematics

Dave examined the blackboard nervously. All the equations had made sense yesterday when he first used the calculations to switch bodies with Andrea. He wondered if it was an effect of the swap. Sure, Andrea was a smart woman, but she wasn’t anywhere near the level of genius he was. While he had his own thoughts and his own memories, he still had her body. That meant he had her brain chemistry and her neurological pathways. If they just weren’t firing at the levels he was used to, this sort of stuff might be well beyond his ability as long as he was in her body. Of course, he couldn’t get back to his own body unless he could make sense of these equations that switched them in the first place. His only hope was to enlist Andrea’s help to figure this all out. Surely if they worked together, they could decipher these complex mathematical formulas.

After a few more fluff questions for the day, the researchers stopped. They didn’t want to pressure Dwight too hard today. In the moment of silence, he turned to the door and asked, “Is that it? I’ve got a second hair appointment today for some hair extensions.”

“Didn’t you just get it cut?” Asked one of the researchers.

“I like mixing it up. What else do I except for my looks?”
