Army experiment (Part 1)

Private Owen Nevins signed up for an Army experiment to put his body in stasis until the technology existed to revive him. It took nearly 1000 years. He awoke slowly and started to stretch when he realized the stretching was being done with a very unfamiliar body. The doctors explained that while they couldn’t revive a body, they could revive a brain, which they did by placing him into a new body. He questioned why they had put him in a woman’s body. The doctors were confused. Sexism was a thing of the distant past by now, and the gender of the two patients were inconsequential to them. However, it was a very big deal to Owen!

Gaining weight

Harvey had no objections to being swapped into a new body by the Great Shift -- mostly because he got a fantastic body out of the deal, but he never anticipated how much maintenance a beautiful female body would be. After a few months, he realized that he just couldn’t stop his new body from gaining weight. He tried exercising; he tried a diet; none of it seemed to work. Just how did skinny girls stay thin? How did this girl do it before? The answers eluded him as he looked at himself in the mirror a year later. The same outfit he had wore the day of the Shift now felt so much tighter on his fatter frame. He was still attractive, but he longed to have the same skinny body that he had right after the Shift had swapped him!

Shut

When Charlie saw his reflection, he shut his eyes and turned away. He didn’t want to believe the mirror. He hoped he was just dreaming, and that when he opened his eyes, he’d be back to being in his own body. He pressed his eyelids together tighter as a breeze blew up his dress. The cool air reminded him that he was certainly not dreaming. He had become this woman. Her body was his now.

Chuck knew things could have been worse. He looked down at his legs. He knew he was attractive; in fact, he was gorgeous. He was also still young enough to shape this life in any way he chose. He found her college ID in her purse -- she was a sophomore majoring in fashion design. He could continue that, but it also wasn’t too late to change majors. This wasn’t going to be so bad, quite honestly. He should think of this as the start of something new, a chance for open opportunity. And so he started his new life.

Best purchase ever

It had to probably be the best purchase Sean ever made on ebay, and it was one that was completely accidental. He had bought a dress secretly on the site, hoping no one would ever find out he loved to crossdress, but in the box along with the dress there was an odd medallion. He soon discovered that he could wear the medallion and touch the dress to it and transform into the woman who had sold him the dress -- he recognized her face from the modeling shots from the product page. Soon he discovered he could change himself into anyone as long as he had a piece of their clothing. He certainly did not let this go to waste! Before long, he found he was transforming himself into some pretty gorgeous women. It wasn’t just his best ebay purchase, or even his best online purchase...this medallion was the best purchase he ever made!

On the beach (Part 1)

What the heck was going on? It was such a strange and sudden shift. One moment, Alex had been sitting in his office and the next he was on a beach. He also felt quite naked. He wasn’t, but he was quite shocked to be wearing a bikini -- and to have breasts! He soon started exploring his new body and discovered a mess of hair on top of his head as well! What was going on here?

Volleyball (Part 1)

Trevor wondered how he had gotten himself into this situation. It was probably his big mouth; it was always his big mouth. Saying the wrong thing to a witch on the beach got him trapped in her body while she was in his. He only made things worse as he continued to open his big mouth. Now they were playing volleyball with very high stakes. If he won, he’d get his body back. If he lost, he’d be stuck in her body for good. Right now, the score was tied. He needed two points to win, but two points against him and it’d be over. He took a deep breath as he prepared the serve.

The class

Dan had been working on his invention for five years. It was intended to be a method of revenge. But his life at school hadn’t been so bad lately, and the machine still lacked proper controls. With his eighteenth birthday behind him and high school graduation only a few days away, he never expected to be tormented so greatly. He came home in tears, digging through a few boxes in his basement to find it. He didn’t care that the device wasn’t complete, he just wanted his revenge. It would be an equalizer -- swapping the bodies of everyone in his class. He couldn’t control who would be who, but...

His thoughts drifted away as he was sucked away and placed in a new body. He looked in the mirror. Andrea Chow looked back. He actually had nothing against her. She was pretty, but she also was actually nice and kept to herself. The one thing he had never noticed before was how skinny she was! Well, now that he was in her body, he could fatten it up -- just a little! He was way more excited about seeing what bodies his other classmates ended up in. He hoped that the jocks who picked on him ended up in nerdy bodies. It would be fitting justice!

Innocent

The case seemed fairly open and shut. They had found the woman next to the murdered body. The police asked for her story, and she told them that they wouldn’t believe her if she told them. They asked for her name, and she said the same thing, so they dubbed her Jane Doe. It wasn’t long before Jane was awaiting trial in prison. One night she reached through the bars and shook the woman in the cell next to her awake.

“They’d never believe me if I told them,” Jane said, “But I’ve got to tell someone. My real name is Fred Sanchez, and I’m innocent. I was home when I heard screams next door. I ran over and saw this woman over that dead body. Then she did something somehow and switched bodies with me. It was some weird voodoo shit. I knew the police would never believe me. Heck, even I don’t really believe me. I often wonder if I really am this woman, and I just couldn’t cope with the psychology of killing another person and invented a previous life for myself in my mind. But I remember my life as Fred so clearly that I’m sure I was him before all this. I’m sure of it. I’m sure I’m innocent.”

Barefoot

There was no shortage of chaos at the theatre when the Great Shift hit. Both audience members and actors found their bodies swapped. Screamed echoed from the stage to the balcony. Many rushed for the exits, others like Thom just stayed put. As the crowd dwindled, he stood up. He had trouble in the heels he now wore, so he took them off and walked around the theatre barefoot. He tried to think rationally about the whole thing. So far all he was able to determine was that he had switched bodies with a woman, and that everyone else had switched bodies with someone as well. It wasn’t a lot to go on, but he still saw no reason to panic.

Purse

Jay didn’t quite know what to make of what was going on. He was in the back room of some place and in the body of a strange woman. He quickly started looking through the woman’s purse for some form of identification. He noticed the other woman in the room doing the same.

“Did it happen to you to?” Jay asked.

“Yeah, my name is Tom. Did you find anything.”

“Only a scrap of paper with an address, but I have no idea if it’s her address or someone else’s.”

The satchel (Part 2)

Adam ran his fingers through his hair. The whole bodyswitching thing piqued his scientific mind. He was sure it had to be one of the lab’s experiments. He held back his giddiness; he was glad to finally be part of one of the tests. He hoped the woman in his body was equally excited, and judging from his what was around him, he knew she had to be nearby.

The gym (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

There was a great deal of shock in the gym after the swap, but many continued exercising in shock, like they were on auto-pilot. Barney was among them. He had paused for a second, but he quickly got back to the weights the woman had been lifting. They weren’t very heavy. Things got sorted out slowly, but after a little while, Barney learned about the woman he swapped with. Her name was Tammi, and she was actually an employee of the gym.

His body jerked. Matt could tell the switch was faster this time, as though it was reacting to his suicide attempt. Trying to kill himself simply wasn’t an option, but would he ever even die? Switch bodies all the time was bad enough, but literally switching forever? The thought sent an unpleasant feeling through him -- no, wait, that unpleasant feeling was something else. He realized he was having trouble with his motor control. Then he realized -- he was now in the body of a baby! Things had gone from bad to worse, but he felt terrible about what this meant for the poor child swapped into the woman’s body he had just been in!

Compulsion (Part 1)

About three weeks ago, Tyler had taken a cab ride that would change his life forever. As he exited the cab, he instantly swapped with the driver, and he found himself driving away like a zombie. He read the cabbie’s journal to find that as the new driver, he could steal a body as well. He had never found any that interested him, but the taxi had a way of forcing the situation. He didn’t want to swap with the woman in the back that night, but the magic words slipped out of his mouth anyway. “Have a nice day,” He told her. The next thing he knew, he was her. And once again, he was in a zombie-like state for a moment. But this time, instead of driving away, he pulled a cigarette out of his purse and started smoking. It tasted so gross, but he just felt the compulsion, and he couldn’t help it.

Stay inside

Michelle wasn’t sure who she was angrier at: her dad for inventing that damned body switching machine or her little brother currently inside of her body. She probably couldn’t hold too much against her brother. He was just playing a game of dress up, but wearing her crown and gloves from last year’s junior prom just made her body look silly. She begged him not to go outside until their father could fix the machine, but she had a feeling he wouldn’t listen. He was at that age when anyone tried to tell him anything, he’d do the exact opposite. She tried distraction. The mirror was quite good at it. Her brother apparently thought so as well. It was weird to see a different body react, but it was also weird to see your own body NOT react. Michelle hoped her father would work quickly!

Gift

Janet had promised a brilliant surprise to her boyfriend Clark for his birthday. He had no idea what it could be. He kept asking to no avail. However, at 11:59 on the night before his birthday, he got a phone call.

“Are you ready for your gift?” Janet asked on the other end of the line.

“Yes!” Clark responded, his palms sweaty with anticipation.

It suddenly felt like Clark was sucked into the phone, and he soon found himself on the other end and in Janet’s body.

“Happy birthday,” He heard his own voice on the other end of the line say, “Feel free to do whatever you want with my body for the next 24 hours.”

The couple hung up, and Clark had to admit he was astounded. For the day, he was in Janet’s body! She had even donned it up all wrapped up for the occasion. He wasn’t sure how she did this, but he sure did appreciate it!

Master plan (Part 1)

Kimberly had always felt a little bit of guilt about being born into such a life of wealth and privilege. Her rich friends would often laugh off these concerns, but when the conversation was overheard by a poor engineering student named Jason, things would change. He had a device that could change everything. He aimed it at her and fired. Now it was only a matter of time before it would take effect. Jason was surprised when he started to feel strange later that day; he hadn’t expected things to start working so soon. Within moments, he was at a charity ball inside of Kimberly’s body; the device had worked! He quickly excused himself and headed to the bus station. He knew that everyone in the upper crust of society would be looking for Kimberly, but no one would ever think of looking for her at the bus station. He’d lay low for a while. After all, he did have a master plan in the works.

Body wash

Sasha looked at her brother and sighed, “You’ve been using my magic body wash again? I’ve told you it’s for girls only, and every time you use it, it turns you into a girl for the day!”

“Actually, Sis,” Brian smiled, “This is MY bottle of body wash. I love going through the day as a cute girl sometimes! You are actually all out of body wash, which means you’ll have to use that other magical stuff in there.”

“Oh, no, not...Please can I borrow some your bottle?”

“Nope! I hope you enjoy having a penis for a day!”

Pleasant surprise (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

Once the transformation was complete, Timothy couldn’t help but smile. He had only been a woman for a few minutes, but it actually felt pretty good. He hadn’t asked for this, but he had to admit that it was a pleasant surprise. He wondered if his whole life had been transformed too. Did people always remember him as a woman? He could worry about stuff like that later, he had a new body to enjoy right now!

Are you okay? (Part 1)

Zach had just been lounging at home when a weird flash hit his eyes. Instead of sitting at home, he was now standing outside. He nearly tripped at the sudden change. But it wasn’t just the fact that he was now standing, it was the fact that he was now standing in high heels! In fact, his whole body was different. He wore a tiny bikini! He had boobs! He was even more shocked when a hand suddenly grabbed him, and he heard a female voice.

“Amy?” It asked, “Are you okay?”

Zach realized that voice was talking to him!

Prosecute

It was hard for Mindy Fuller to prove their body had been stolen; it was even harder to find the culprit and prosecute. However, after months of searching, they found their man. He was surly and uncooperative inside of Mindy’s body. He snarled as his mug shot was taken and growled at the cops.

“You’ll never lock me away for good!” He said, “Without the device that did this, you’ll never prove anything. And I ain’t gonna tell you where it is. After all, even if you do manage to succeed in convicting me, good luck trying to convince a judge to allow Mindy’s body to be put away for my crimes!” He laughed, “You probably wouldn’t even know whether to put me in men’s or women’s prison!”

Jogged (Part 1)

Every morning on Henry’s jog, he’d pass a woman. He’d smile and her, and she’d smile back. It was not only the best part of his jog, but often the best part of his day. They never spoke a word, but it was a pleasant non-verbal exchange. On one morning, he didn’t see her. It was a let down. The next day when he saw her again, he decided to break the silence and open his mouth. As she passed him and the two exchanged smiles, he said hello. As the word spilled forth, he soon felt woozy. Something felt wrong as if he had lost body mass. As he looked over, he saw his own body, and then he looked down. He had switched bodies with the woman!

What if

It had been a few years since the Great Shift had happened, but there wasn’t a day that goes by that Frederick didn’t think about what his life would be like had the body swapping event never took place. He often came to the ball field to wonder. After all, this is where he’d been, playing a game for his high school team. He swapped with the girlfriend of one of his teammates. She was gorgeous but not athletically inclined. He knew the swap meant the end of many of his sporting hopes. But being in her body opened many doors as well. A very successful modeling and acting career and several million dollars later, he returned to his hometown, back to this field, and wonder what if it had never happened at all.

The book (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

Jack began to think. He wanted to figure out a way to keep Anne’s body. He needed to trick her! Could he tell her he had already recited the spell, and it hadn’t worked? No, then she might just want to try again. Maybe he could hide the book and say that it had been lost or stolen? No, then she’d look for it, and if she found it, it would be obvious that he had hidden it. He couldn’t throw it away; the spells in there were way too valuable. Maybe he could switch back with Anne and then use the book to steal another woman’s body? No, he didn’t want to be just anyone. He liked being Anne!

“Do I really have to change?” Mike pleaded with his sister.

She rolled her eyes, “Of courseyou do! Remember, that’s MY body you have. MY reputation. Unless you want ME to change your body. I warn you. I’ll put on a dress!”

“Okay! Okay! I get it! I’ll change! But you’d never fit my body into one of your dresses!”

Spirit

A horrible car crash had sent Seth into a coma. As he lay in his hospital bed, he could feel himself looking down at his own body. He watched as the doctors feverishly worked on him, and as he watched, he realized he was having an out-of-body experience. He was about to jump back into his own body when he noticed the form his spirit had taken. It was the form of a young woman. He began to think about his life, and while he’d never claim to feel unhappy, he also always felt like there was something off, as though he wasn’t quite comfortable in his own skin. He looked as his body. He was an attractive man, but a man nonetheless. He looked as his spirit, just to confirm it was female. He decided he wouldn’t return just yet. Maybe the body that matched his spirit was out there somewhere! At first he checked the hospital, he floated through the halls to no avail. He wasn’t ready to give up yet though! His body was in stable condition, and he was on a mission! He floated throughout the city from crowded streets to empty train stations, but he could not seem to find a body that matched his spirit. He started to wonder if the search was hopeless.

“So, Al,” Keith said while placing the pool cue seductively between his legs, “What’s this big long wooden thing for? Can you show me how to use it?”

“You bet,” Al responded while slowly taking the pool cue by gripping it very close to Keith’s feminine crotch, “I’ll show you how to use it, and you show me your rack...I mean, you rack my balls. I mean, rack the balls.”

Keith smiled. This guy was already distracted -- he was going to be so easy to scam!

Heart's content

Angela banged on the door loudly for twenty minutes before Curt finally opened it up.

She held out her hand before demanding, “Time to give the medallion back so we can fix this body swapping mess.”

“Give it back?” Curt smiled, “Fix it? Why would I want to do any of those things? I love that the Medallion of Zulu swapped our bodies. I love it so much that while you were out here banging, I was finding a way to get rid of that thing and eliminate any possibility of swapping back.”

“You’re lying. It’s got to be in there somewhere.”

“Do you want to come in? You can look for it to your heart’s content, but you won’t ever find it.”

Ingredients (Part 3)

Click here for Part 2.

The phone beeped, indicating a text. Ricky checked. His sister had answered him, but she really wasn’t any help. She only suggested placed he had already tried for the final ingredient. He pulled the hood further over his head as he groaned. He couldn’t believe that he’d be stuck like this if he couldn’t find it!

Nothing

“I know it probably sound crazy, Mark. I look like your girlfriend Kaity, and I sound like her. But I’m actually your best friend, Richard. This crazy medallion somehow ended up switching our bodies. And now I’m in Kaity’s body, and she’s in mine!”

“Uh...” Mark obviously had his doubts, “I’m sorry, but body swapping medallion? It sounds crazy.”

“It’s right here in my hand,” Richard said while gesturing to an empty fist.

“You really HAVE lost it, Kaity. There’s nothing there.”

“But it was! I swear! I felt it in my pocket just a minute ago, and pulled it out...but...where did it go? If it’s gone, Kaity and I have no hope of getting our bodies back! Help me find it!”

Mark could only stare. From his perspective, it seemed like his girlfriend had lost her mind, but it was just the tricks of the Medallion of Zulu.

Late (Part 3)

Nathan walked around looking for his own body. He never found her, but he did spy the blue light once more. He wasn’t sure what it did this time. Maybe it had done something to someone else, But he also realized he was suddenly less concerned about being in the wrong body. After all, he knew enough about Kristen’s life to get by. No one would ever suspect he wasn’t Kristen anyway. He realized that he’d never be complaining about dating women again either. Of course, this was just the start of him complaining about dating men.

Super

Lex Luthor smiled at his handy work, and he couldn’t believe the woman was now dumb enough the smile back. It started with a simple hypothesis. Superman would be easy to defeat in any other body. The brain swapping device had taken Luthor months of work, figuring out a plan to lure Superman took even longer, but hiring the streetwalker he planned to swap with the Man of Steel was simple! Of course, despite his new body, Superman’s mind was still as sharp as it had been, but Luthor had a plan for that too; a few quick injections of Kryptonite straight into the brain and Superman’s actions soon matched the body he now had. It was a perfect plan that had succeeded beyond Luthor’s wildest dreams.

On-camera

How was this even possible? Lance had woken up in the morning to a strange surprise. He now had a woman’s body. He didn’t want to waste this opportunity for a second. He quickly pulled out his video camera and started filming himself in all sorts of compromising positions.. He knew people on the internet that would pay a lot of money for videos like these. Of course, he could not wait for some off-camera enjoyment as well!

The power

Max couldn’t believe the power he held in his hand, at least theoretically, if the person who had given him the gun was to be believed. All he had to do was think of something, aim the gun at someone, and fire, then that person would transform into whatever he thought of in his mind. The only catch was that it would only work once. Max stood a safe distance away as he aimed the gun at the biggest jerk he knew, a womanizer from his office. He thought of a a gorgeous Asian woman in a tight leather outfit, one who was submissive to Max’s every whim. He aimed the gun and fired, but soon realized he had aimed the gun the wrong way. Max’s body soon transformed into the image in his own head. He gasped with a now soft feminine voice knowing he was stuck. He breathed one sigh of relief. At least the last part of what he was thinking meant that he’d only be submissive to his own whims. Thank goodness for small favors!

Pixie (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

Francis felt like a total freak. Not only had he been turned into a woman by a weird magical fish, he had the strangest features accentuated. He had such skinny limbs and large eyes. He felt almost inhuman. In a way he was. Though he hadn’t realized it yet, the fish had made him half-pixie. The strange thing was that when he went out, everyone just seemed to see him as a normal woman. While he was out, he noticed others who with proportions here and there. How had he never noticed such people before? He spoke with one who seemed genuinely shocked by his confusion. She sat him down, telling him that he must be a new pixie. Francis was confused. The woman continued. Only pixies could really see other pixies, to human beings, they just looked like normal humans. Being a pixie also meant having magical powers. Francis’s head was spinning with all the knowledge he was getting. It all seemed so unreal. But his head perked up at the words “magic powers.” Maybe there was an upside to this transformation after all!

Job to do

It was a daily event at the construction site for workers to shout rude comments to the passing women. None of them ever expected one of those women to be a witch. Craig had been shouting down one minute, and the next he was on the ground in the woman’s body he had just been yelling at. It was disorienting at first, but he soon rushed to gather safety gear and get back to his post on the building. It didn’t matter whose body he had, he still had a job to do!

Crazy woman

Bill had been trying to flag a car down for an hour before the Jeep finally stopped. He told the driver how thankful he was for stopping and then started to explain his story. Bill realized how unbelievable his tale sounded as he spoke. Talk of magic and swapping bodies just wasn’t something you hear about everyday -- or any day for that matter! He probably seemed like some sort of crazy man -- or, more accurately, some sort of crazy woman!

Could've sworn (Part 1)

“I could’ve sworn I put the medallion on the shelf in this closet!” Jake exclaimed while frantically searching.

“Well, it’s NOT in there!” Janice steamed.

“Maybe you should help me look! You’re the tall one right now, after all. If we don’t find that medallion, you and I are going to be stuck in each other’s bodies for good. We need to think carefully. You didn’t touch it after I put it up here, did you?”

“Of course not!”

“You don’t suppose the kids had anything to do with this...do you?”

Adjusting well

“I think I’m adjusting to life after the Great Shift pretty well, you know?” Donald told his friend Curtis, “It’s been two weeks, and so far I’ve been dealing with this whole being-a-woman-now thing pretty well.”

“Me too.” Curtis replied, “Have you run into your old body yet? I haven’t”

“I did just yesterday. It was weird, because he only spoke Spanish. He also looked pretty confused about why I was talking to him. What I’m really interested about is speaking with the Asian woman who used to have this body. I’m just sort of curious to talk to her, but I haven’t run into her yet -- or she hasn’t tried to contact me.”

My New Life Switching Bodies

A while back I had a blog called "My New Life as a Woman." I've decided to slightly twist the concept with a new blog called "My New Life Switching Bodies". Here is the first post:

It started happening two days ago. I woke up in the morning and realized I was in a strange room. It didn't take long for me to realize the body I was inside was no longer my own. I looked in the mirror to see an unfamiliar face. The person looking back looked like a dude my age. He was in his late 20s or maybe early thirties with an average build. The biggest difference was that he had facial hair while I did not. Switching bodies was quite unexpected, but I kept telling myself it was a dream that I would soon wake up from. Except the next day, it happened again. I went to bed and woke up in an entirely new body. The biggest difference this time was that I was in a body that was a little fatter and maybe a little bit older. I still told myself that it wasn't real, that I must be dreaming. But this morning, it happened again, and this time my body was quite different than my original:

Waking up as a woman was something I was not prepared for. Your movements feel different with breasts hanging from your chest. Peeing is a new experience as well. It was certainly different enough for me to finally realize that this wasn't my imagination anymore, and I'm going to start logging the experiences on the internet in hopes of recording my swaps as best as possible and to try and keep my sanity and a sense of identity. So this is who I am today. Something tells me it's going to be a fun day

Aftershocks (Part 1)

Thomas took a deep breath before opening up his laptop to type the first entry in his new blog.

“When the Great Shift hit, I thought I was one of the lucky ones.” He wrote, “I hadn’t been shifted; it was short-sighted. For the next year, I was quite arrogant about the fact that I still had my original body. But that all changed in an instant about two weeks ago. I imagine the experience was much like the rest of the world had the year prior: a period of extreme disorientation before finding myself in a new body. I swapped with a
business woman of Asian decent who hadn’t been swapped in the original Shift either. It took a while for us to convince anyone to believe our story. Surprisingly, considering the entire world had swapped bodies not long ago. But there were soon other people reporting the same thing. Leading scientists couldn’t ignore it any longer and dubbed such swaps like mine as ‘Aftershocks’ from the Great Shift. These aftershocks happen in small pockets of two to twelve people -- at least, twelve is the largest so far. They seem to happen more often to people who weren’t affected by the original Shift, though no one is completely immune. It also seems that once you have been hit by an aftershock, the more likely you are to be affected by a future aftershock; these tend to occur a few months apart. I plan to chronicle my experiences here. Currently, I am still in the body of the Asian business woman. She is 5’2”, 32 years old, and 110 pounds. She has black hair and brown eyes; she is single. I will continue to update you on all my future aftershocks.”

My fault

“My fault?” Brad exclaimed to his girlfriend Julie, “How is any of this my fault? You were the one that found that medallion. You were the one that wanted to use it to switch bodies. You were the one holding on to it for safe keeping. And you were the one who lost it. So please tell me how you think that the fact that we are stuck in each other’s bodies is now in any way my fault?”

BGH

Phillip was quite confident on his work with the new bovine growth hormone. Not only would it allow cows to produce three times the normal amount of milk, he was convinced it was safer than previous versios of BGH. But his exposure to the chemical soon had strange consequences. It started one Saturday when he realized that he was growing breasts. He was sure it could wait until he returned to work on Monday, but by nightfall, he had completely changed into a woman. He decided he’d head into the lab the next morning to try and fix the problem. He put on some of his wife’s clothes and made his way, but as he did, the final effect of the hormone took place -- he started to rapidly grow. Within fifteen minutes, he towered over most of the buildings in the city. This was now a big problem...literally!

Genetics

Gary had never quite fit in with the other boys. Something about him was just different. During his teenage years, he was never as big as the other guys, didn’t grow any body hair, and was constantly made fun of for being “girlie.” During his college years, his acne got worse and his voice started cracking again. He had heard of late bloomers, but this was crazy! Still, he hoped these would lead to developing more masculine traits. Instead, just the opposite happened. In fact, over the course of the year, he developed breasts and his penis slowly introverted into a vagina. Readjusting to a new sex was no easy task, but he did his best! After going through it all, his mom sat him down. She had a confession. She had also been born a man and went through the same thing in her early twenties. She had been fully female ever since. It was a rare genetic condition, and she explained that Gary would probably pass it on to her children as well. It was a lot for Gary to absorb -- mainly the fact that he now had the ability to bear children!

Wonderful person

“Honestly, Grandma, it’s me; it’s George! I know I don’t look like me right now, but that’s because of that little device I just gave you. It’s a bodyswapper! I used it to switch bodies with this woman, and you can use it too! You can be young again!”

“But wouldn’t I have to take someone else’s body? Something about that just doesn’t feel right, George...It’s so weird calling you that with that pretty young lady’s face looking back at me!”

“It’s okay, Grandma. You’re sick. There’s no cure. This is the only way to help you! You are such a wonderful person, and you deserve a longer life! There are so many scummy people out there; you could do something good with their lives!”

George’s grandma sighed, “You’re right, I am a good person. That’s why I can’t use this weird bodyswapping thing you brought me. I couldn’t begin to justify allowing someone else to die in my body, even the worst person in the world!”

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.

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!
