Turn Around


As soon as it happened, Craig turned around sharply in his seat. He was now staring right into what appeared to be his own face, but he knew the foreign chick in his class must’ve done this to him. What was her name? Ming? Ting? Ling? Something like that? He knew he should know; he had slept with her last week. His suspected this was her revenge for not calling her back, but swapping bodies still seemed like more like fantasy than reality.

As he sat there, still sort of dumbfounded and in shock, his former body spoke, “Hey, Anming, why do you got that dumb look on your face? And consider closing your legs, unless you plan on doing us all right here.”

Craig watched his former body laugh at that remark and slap the hands of some of his former friends. He wanted to say something, but he just felt himself turn red instead. Craig simply quietly turned around and decided to accept his new life as Anming. Maybe he could just keep a low profile until college was over...

Favor


Alyssa didn’t want to miss her important business meeting, so she asked a pretty big favor of her husband, Tom. They hadn’t used the strange device in the their basement for years, but Tom knew exactly what she was talking about. Before long, Tom was out the door and heading to catch a flight to go to his wife’s meeting in her place. He wasn’t sure he could pull it off. For starters, what did he know about his wife’s job? Probably not enough to pull this off. He had also screwed up when thinking about his wife to initiate the transformation, which resulted in his breasts being much too large. Otherwise, he was a nearly perfect copy of his wife.

Of course, the biggest problem wouldn’t be the business meeting, it would be when Tom returned home. After years of disuse, it would seem the morphic adaption unit in their basement only had one final charge in it, and they had used that to turn Tom into a copy of Alyssa. The couple would find it completely impossible for Tom to use the machine again once he returned.

After a year, Blake had gotten quite used to the high heels and short skirts. He had gotten used to the stares. What he still hadn’t gotten used to was Julie’s new dominating attitude. He had to wear what she told him to wear, eat what she told him to eat, and do what she told him to do. He still held out hope that she would swap back with him -- that he’d get his own body back someday. Of course, Julie had other plans...

Blake was relieved. The appointment to reverse the swap that had placed his head on Julie’s body was tomorrow. He couldn’t believe he had spent an entire month like this. He had started out in good spirits, but as the days went on, he realized being a woman had a lot of drawbacks -- especially being a woman with a man’s head. But he kept telling himself that everything would be back to normal tomorrow. That is, until Julie whispered down to his ear.

“I canceled our appointment tomorrow. But you better not panic or freak out if you ever even hope to get your body back one day,” She told him, “And on top of that, this will be your last day wearing pants. It’s all skirts and dresses from now on. In fact, you are going to do everything exactly as I say without any complaints.”

Blake was horrified. He wanted to object but he knew Julie was serious. In fact, she had gotten very aggressive and demanding in the past month. He wondered if it was the hormones from his own male body affecting her brain. He tried to relax. Sure, she was going to keep him like this a little longer, but how much longer? She did seem to offer hope that he’d get his body back one day. His heart sank as he heard someone yell “Freaks” as they snapped a photo of the head swapped couple.

Understanding (Part 1)


The girl approached Blake and Julie with trepidation. Blake knew why and smiled politely as he explained, “I know we look weird, and I know why you’d stare at us. But I consider myself a pretty progressive guy. We underwent a procedure that placed my head on her body and visa versa. It was rather expensive, but I felt it was important to better understand my girlfriend here. It’s only temporary, and we have an appointment to swap back after a month.”

Deserve an Explanation


William had spent the past three hours stuck in this chair, trying to break free while thinking about how he got stuck like this. He honestly didn’t know. He had been sitting at home, minding his own business when suddenly he was somewhere else, in someone else’s body and tied up in this chair. He wasn’t sure which was tighter or more uncomfortable, the ropes binding him or the clothes he now wore. All his struggling seemed to do little good. Finally, he heard the doorknob jiggle and a man entered.

“Thank God!” William exclaimed, “I don’t know how long I’ve been stuck like this. I don’t know what’s going on or how I got here. Could you please help me out!”

“You haven’t heard about the Great Shift?” The man asked as he untied William.

“I’ve heard nothing. I’ve just been stuck.” “Well, you do deserve an explanation. The media is calling what happened ‘The Great Shift.’ It seems everyone swapped bodies with someone else. And I probably deserve an explanation too, but I doubt you are the one to give it to me. I will just have to wait for my husband to get home to tell me why he’s tying a woman in our house while I am away.”

Following Instructions


Jack adjusted the boot; he couldn’t believe how uncomfortable high heels were, but Marsha had given him strict instructions about the types of clothes he could and couldn’t wear when out of the house. Honestly, he hadn’t been out of neither her house nor the simple sweatpants she had worn for the swap since the two had used that weird medallion to switch bodies, and after getting dressed in this tight skirt and whatnot, he wished he had told her to come here to swap back.

The walk over to his own place was short, but took a while in the uncomfortable shoes. It was quiet when he arrived; Marsha wasn’t there yet. She seemed to be running late, but Jack wasn’t panicking yet.

Of course, what he didn’t know was that Marsha had gotten into an accident with his body earlier in the day. She was unconscious in the hospital. To  make matters worse, the medallion was lost in the accident. While Jack was sitting there hoping to get back to his own body, the truth was that he’d now be stuck with Marsha’s body for the rest of his life.

Vacations Are Supposed to Be Relaxing


“Most people find vacations relaxing, Miss Lee,” The therapist told the woman sitting in his office, “What made this recent one so stressful for you?”

The woman took a deep breath before her answer, “Most people don’t vacation on Exchange Island where people swap bodies. And even most people who go there end up getting their bodies back after it’s over. And for the past month since I’ve been back, I’ve been trying to live the life of this woman that I know almost nothing about. Also, could you please call me Steve instead of Miss Lee or Claire or whatever? No one has called me Steve since this happened. It’d make me feel more....normal. I know you are looking at me like I’m crazy.”

“I am not calling you crazy, but body swapping does seem like something out of fiction, does it not?”

“That’s what I thought to until I took up my friend’s dare to actually go there. And if you don’t believe me, that’s what I suggest you do. Go there. You won’t think it’s fiction once you experience it for yourself. Just hope you don’t get stuck in someone else’s body like I did.”

Stepmom (Part 3)

Click here for Part 1.
Click here for Part 2.

Eric sighed. He wanted to change out of hi stepmom’s yoga clothes. He first found a pair of jeans, but they were so tight. He ultimately settled on a black dress that was stretchy and actually comfortable. Of course, it still felt weird to be wearing a dress at all.

One thing he had to be thankful for was that his dad was out of town. If he was here, things could get REALLY weird. After all, he was in the body of his father’d wife! The thought of that made Eric hope that he’d be back to his own body sooner rather than later. On the other hand, maybe if his dad was here, he could explain to him who he really was and what had happened. Maybe he’d be able to get some help finding some answers. Then again, maybe not.

Stepmom (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

Eric arrived late to the yoga class. He hoped to get a little more information about his stepmom’s life (or if his own self now even existed) by questioning her classmates; instead he was just lectured about disturbing the zen of the room anytime he tried to strike up a conversation. He ultimately left early and went back to his dad’s house.

He wasn’t able to find any of his stuff at his dad’s place. At first he thought that was a hint. Maybe after the crash he just merged into his stepmom’s body and his own self just stopped existing. But then he realized because of the divorce that maybe all his stuff was still with his mom. Of course, he couldn’t just call and ask her, not like this. He couldn’t imagine his mom would want to speak with the woman that stole her husband and broke up their marriage.

And, of course, Eric hated the fact that he saw the face of the woman that broke up his parents every single time he walked by a mirror. When he saw that face, he could see that she was beautiful at first, but it only took a split second later for him to feel ugly on the inside. He felt so disgusted looking at that reflection or even anytime he looked down. It didn’t even bother him that he was a woman; what bothered him was the fact that he was this specific woman.

Stepmom


The first semester of college hadn’t exactly gone great for Eric. It wasn’t that classes were tough, it was the news coming from home. His parents got divorced during his first month away, and his dad had remarried before Eric’s first break back home. Then meeting his new stepmom was especially awkward. She was only a few years older than he was, and she had picked him up at the airport since his dad was away on a business trip. She complained a lot, saying the detour to pick him up was going to make her late for her yoga class. Eric just rolled his eyes, not wanting to interact with her at all.

As if that all wasn’t bad enough, it got worse when the car skidded off the road. The accident knocked him out temporarily, but he was quick to respond when he woke back up. He checked the car. It seemed mostly fine, and it should be able to back out without any problems. He didn’t feel injured, but there was of his stepmom. That is, until he noticed his reflection in the rearview mirror. His stepmom wasn’t missing; he had become her! He didn’t know if they somehoe merged into one person or if they swapped and she ran off somewhere with his body. All he could do was to try not to panic.

He thought about the best course of action, and that was to go on like everything was normal, which meant continuing on as his own stepmom. He realized he didn’t know much about her. The only thing he knew was about the yoga class she was going to go to, so he drove there. He headed in and changed into her workout clothes. He couldn’t believe he was going to do this. He couldn’t believe he was in her body either!

Subway Ride


When I got on the train I saw her and positioned myself across from her. She was cute and it was the perfect place to catch glimpses of her as I pretended to look at things on my laptop. She had a quirky style that I found adorable. I thought many times of calling up the courage to stand up, walk across the subway car, and talk to her. But something stopped me. I was pretty sure that after three stops or so I was simply outright staring at her. That’s why it was so odd when she seemingly just disappeared. She must’ve gotten off at a stop, but why hadn’t I noticed? My eyes had practically been glued on her; how could I have missed her leaving? I kicked myself for not building up that courage to talk to her. It wasn’t until the train arrived at my stop that I noticed what had happened. I placed my laptop into a small red bad beside me, and I had to do a doubletake. I didn’t own a red bag. The bag was very familiar; I recognized it. I looked down at myself and recognized the outfit as well. It was the outfit worn by the woman I had been staring at. It wasn’t hard to realize that I wasn’t just wearing her clothes; I had become her. I had gone from a man lusting after a woman to become the object of my lust. It was a strange mix of joy and worry. I gathered her belongings and headed off the train at my stop. I wondered what sort of life I had now. Hers? Mine? A mix of the two? Did she have my body now and leave the train without noticing? I had so many questions.

Lies


As he lied through his teeth to Mei by saying he knew nothing about how they swapped bodies, Peter was also doing everything in his power not to squeeze the breasts now on his chest. He often talked with his hands, and everytime they came close, he just wanted to give a little pinch, but he stopped himself. He knew that might give away that he was lying.

Mei looked at him with suspicion. Peter was a terrible liar, but she had always thought of him as just this really weird guy. She’d probably usually be able to tell that he was lying, but she was so concerned with that fact that there was a completely weird dude now inside of her body that she just kept chalking everything up to his weirdness with concern over how he was going to embarrass her or her reputation. Until she could clear her head a little, Peter was going to be able to keep lying.

Spelling


Tyler had been practicing witchcraft now for six months, but he had only perfected a single spell, levitation. His teacher gave him a bit of advice: keep working on what he did know and keep trying new spells. It basically meant Tyler was levitating all the time while trying just about every other spell in the book.

It was quite unexpected when one of those other spells actually worked. Tyler hadn’t even realized which spell it was, but he could tell it had worked. Then he caught a glimpse of his own body and realized it must have been a body swap spell. The woman now in his body was shocked to see her own body floating in the air, and she ran. Tyler had no hope of casting the spell again in time before she ran off; he wasn’t even sure how he had done it.

Not that he minded. In fact, over the next few weeks, this new body seemed to allow him to focus on his spells much more. He soon was picking them up left and right. His teacher was quite proud at Tyler’s new progress. As Tyler thought about it, he couldn’t help but wonder if it was his old body that had been holding him back.

Face Swap App


It was all still pretty hard for Jack to believe. All he had done was download an app that would place his face onto pictures he downloaded from the internet. He spent hours giggling as he looked at his face on different bodies. Late one night, a strange notification appeared on his phone that he unlocked a special achievement in the app. The only thing different was a small button that now appears on one corner of the screen in the app. He laughed hard as he downloaded a new picture and saw his face on the body of a buxom woman with an ample rear end. Then he felt compelled to hit the button. The next thing he knew, his phone started to spark and everything went dark.

Light crept in the next morning, and Jack felt weird. His phone was clearly fried, but then he looked at his body. The app had somehow changed his actual body. Instead of getting a photo of his face on the woman’s body, he now actually had the woman’s body! He knew he couldn’t hide the feminine curves of this body, so he went about altering his face. He shaved; he applied a little makeup that an ex-girlfriend had left a long time ago, then he headed to the store. The first thing he bought was a new phone, with hopes of reversing the swap by re-downloading the app. The next place he went was to buy some clothing, just in case the app wouldn’t work again. He had to admit that he was sort of a bit curious about trying on clothes from the women’s section...

Tread Mill


Kevin knew that stealing Heather’s body was only half the battle. If he wanted to keep it, he was going to have to convince everyone she knew that he was actually her. He had hacked into her computers to get every bit of personal information and read up on a journal she kept. However, he was still going to need to practice carrying himself. Heather wore heels all the time, and Kevin had thought it would be easy, but he stumbled and fell when he first tried. He decided thirty minutes on her tread mill wearing a pair might help him out -- heck, if he didn’t know how to walk in these things after that, then he might just as well give up his whole scheme.

Holiday


It was the first holiday since the Great Shift, and it would be the first time the Carver family were all in one place since the incident. It wasn’t hard to figure out who was who; they had all been in regular contact in the period following the Shift, and they had all described their bodies in detail. They all knew that Alex was now in the body of a young Asian woman, but they were still shocked when he arrived wearing skimpy clothing and flaunting his body. He had been quite conservative when he went off to college and didn’t expect this sort of behavior from the formerly quiet and reserved young man.

“You’re all just jealous that I got the hottest body out of the Shift,” Alex boasted to his mother, who was now in the body of a gray haired man.

“I’m hot,” Uncle Merv interjected, “I’m a cute blonde woman, but you don’t see me showing off.”

“You should,” Alex retorted, “But it’s because despite the fact that your body is young, you are actually old. I’m REALLY young, both in mind and body, and I’m ready to live my life how I wish I could’ve before the Shift!”

While Anthony wanted to buy clothing that covered up this body a little better, he didn’t want to extinguish the rush of sexuality he felt completely. He bought some new things and paired them with stuff from Rachel’s wardrobe into outfits that he felt comfortable enough wearing. He felt a strange sense of confidence and pride in his appearance -- a feeling that was quite unfamiliar to him. He was starting to wish that he didn’t have to give this body up for the summer, and that he could keep it much longer -- maybe even forever. Of course, he knew that would violate the controls of the experiment. He also considered that it was the experiment itself that was making him feel these things; that they weren’t his thought, but somehow the thoughts of Rachel’s body having influence on him. He may be looking sexy now, but he didn’t want to betray his scientific mind!

Over the next few days, Anthony found that he had a pretty difficult time having Rachel’s body. After all, he was a skinny white guy trapped in the body of a sexy black woman. Plus, all of her clothes just felt so revealing. Considering she didn’t have a job, he tried to stay home and hide out as much as possible. Still, he did need to pick up items from the store from time to time. He sighed one night when he realized he was out of toilet paper. It was just a trip to the store, but he figured he should actually embrace the experiment and attempt to flaunt this body. He walked the street with a shirt that exposed his belly, tall boots, and leather shorts. He couldn’t even begin to describe what he felt. He wasn’t quite sure he liked it. It was that night that he decided he’d spend a bit of the money that the experiment was giving him to pay for some new clothes. He knew he wanted to save as much as possible, but he figured the expense would well be worth it.

Despite his disorientation, Anthony had walked quite a distance from the university, but he finally decided it was time to assess his situation. He decided to take an analytical approach to resolving his confusion. At first, he thought it was merely being in the body of a woman that threw him off, but there must’ve been something hard-wired in the body because nothing about being a woman felt strange to him. Was it the clothing? While he didn’t exactly feel comfortable, it was nothing he couldn’t deal with. Even though the heels pinched his feet, he couldn’t say that they were exactly jarring. Then he noted he was still wearing his glasses -- he must’ve picked them up and put them on as he headed out, by instinct. As such, the world looked strange; this body didn’t need them. He placed them in the purse he held and decided he would bring them back to the lab when he went in for a check-up. He also checked the name and address on the license in there -- he realized he had been walking aimlessly so far. This body’s name was Rachel, and she didn’t live too far away. Anthony was preparing for a very interesting summer...

Friday, March 11, 2016

Science (Part 1)


As a major in neuroscience, Anthony took an immediate interest in signing up for an experiment that was set to take place over summer break. Aside from his academic curiosity, the study had a huge financial benefit. With the amount it paid, he would be able to skip finding a summer job and pay off a large chunk of his student loan. And, of course, he’d be able to experience first hand one of the department’s strangest devices: a body swapper.

He was a little upset that he had to be unconscious for the procedure; it meant he wouldn’t get to actually see the device at all. Then there was the matter of who he would swap with; he wouldn’t find out until after the swap had happened.

That actually turned out to be the biggest shock. He had expected to swap with another student...or, at the very least, someone who was interested in science. Instead, however, the person he swapped with was a woman who lived in town. She often looked for studies that paid cash, and this one was a huge windfall for her. Mere minutes after he had awoken from the swap, they sent him on his way. Anthony was very disoriented and confused as he walked back to the woman’s house, but at the same time, he felt like he was adapting quickly...

Curbside


Brian had been waiting on the curb for a while; Jacob was supposed to come and pick him up over an hour ago now. Of course, Jacob had driven by, because he hadn’t seen Brian anywhere. Of course, this was due to a rather odd occurrence. Just before the two men were scheduled to meet up, Brian had bumped into a woman on the street. A strange phenomenon caused the two to swap bodies. Brian had sat down on the curb and begun to wait without even noticing the fact that he was in an entirely different body. Jacob then came by without seeing Brian at all, but a woman instead. He drove past several times, noting the woman, but also no sign of Brian (as far as he could tell). Brian was finally getting fed up with waiting. He reached into his pocket for his phone, but soon realized they were empty; his pants far too tight to contain anything in them. Then he realized he was carrying a purse, and suddenly Brian was starting to realize...

Fitting


Mark grumbled as he exited the fitting room. “It fits,” He murmured, “Are you happy now? Can we go?”

Jennifer clapped with glee and jumped to her feet. “Yes!” She chirped, “I look fantastic! Thank you so much! I know this was a pain for you, but I couldn’t reschedule my wedding dress fitting, despite all that madness with that weird medallion thing.”

“Yeah, well, enough time should have passed, so it is hopefully working again now, so let me get out of this damn dress. Then we can go home and swap back.”

“It’s so exciting to see how I’m going to look on my wedding day, but could you smile? I want to see what my body look like when it’s smiling and wearing the dress.”

“Don’t push your luck. There’s no way I feel like smiling right now...”

New Day, New Body


“Oh, great, just great...” Jake sighed as he looked in the mirror this morning. For the past five days, he had woken up in the body of a different person. Of course, today was the first day he was waking up inside of a woman’s body. It was an odd feeling to say the least, and judging from the fact that he was feeling some cramps, he guessed that he was not only a woman, but a woman at the worst possible time...

It only took a few steps without holding onto something for Jason to realize he may have been a bit overconfident on his ability to walk in heels. He soon found himself falling to the floor. He was pretty sure that it was going to hurt, but worse was that he was sure that he was going to cut up these perfect and gorgeous legs he now had. Maybe it was for the best. Once he fell, he might not have to worry about other bruises he might get as he made his way out of this construction site. It was, after all, still going to be a challenge. When his butt hit the ground, he looked up, feeling quite silly. But his attitude quickly changed to panic when he realized that standing over him were the man and woman he had seen swap bodies earlier; the ones responsible for all this. What were they going to do to him?

It didn’t take very long before Jason was feeling pretty confident about his ability to walk in heels. In fact, after about thirty minutes, he felt like he strutting his stuff, holding himself up poised, and feeling just a little bit sexy about it all. Heck, he was beginning to think that accidentally getting sucked up into this whole magical body swapping was just about the best thing ever. Now, there was still the matter of getting out of here, and he had no idea once he got out if people would recognize him as who he really was or the body he was in now. If it was the latter, he was instantly curious about her life; the sort of life he’d be living as long as he had this body. If people still thought of him as Jason, what would that entail? There was no way of knowing because, well, it was all due to magic, right? Magic could do anything. After all, magic gave him this body.

It took about an hour before Jason finally decided on a course of action. And the first thing he knew he needed to do was walk in these heels. He picked himself up and began to teeter. He grabbed firmly on some of the construction equipment and began to walk around with his hands still firmly secure on the rigging. The heels themselves actually weren’t as bad as he expected, but any sort of debris on the floor seemed to easily dislodge his footing. And, of course, there was debris everywhere, which also guaranteed that when he fell, he was sure to get a cut that would likely require a tetanus shot or something. Still, he was starting to feel more and more confident that he could at least make it to the wall without much problem.

Jason was able to sit himself down on a nearby bucket, but he was at a loss about what to do next. He thought of screaming, but he was worried that it might draw the couple he had been spying on back. If they had magical abilities that could swap bodies, who know what else they could do? They might turn him into an animal or an insect. Then again, they were also probably the only ones who’d be able to help him get back to his own body. Of course, maybe he didn’t want to do it so hastily. After all, this was a once in a lifetime experience. Not many people can say they spent time in someone else’s body -- let alone anyone of the opposite gender. However, the way this body was dressed did present some problems. He wasn’t sure how he’d get back over the construction site’s fence while wearing this tight skirt, and he was sure to fall walking around in these heels. He decided to just give himself a bit of time to think about this all right now; waiting around might not have been the smartest move, but he needed to clear his head.

Jason waited quietly until the couple stood up and made their exit. He still couldn’t believe that they had transformed into each other before his very eyes. When they were safely out of view, Jason took a step. But something was wrong, his balance was off and he couldn’t quite catch his footing. He began to fall, but he grabbed onto one of the poles of the scaffolding. That’s when the realization of his own change sunk in. Instead of the beat up sneakers that were once on his feet, he was wearing fancy high heels. In fact, his whole body was different. He had a skirt, long smooth legs, breasts, long hair...He was now a woman. He correctly guessed that he had somehow been close enough to be sucked into being a part of the couple’s spell, and he presumed that the body he now had once belonged to another woman who had been close enough as well. As if seeing the couple swap wasn’t strange enough, being swapped himself was even weirder!

Constructed


Construction on the site had been halted a year ago and security had stopped coming shortly after. Just about everyone in the neighborhood was pretty sure the building would never be finished. While many considered it an eyesore, Jason enjoyed sneaking in and checking out the half-complete structure. He knew it was probably illegal, but he doubt anyone cared. One day as he was exploring around the site, he heard voices. He crept quietly and peaked around a corner to see a man and a woman sitting on the floor with their legs crossed. There eyes were closed and they were chanting. Jason figured he wasn’t the only one who liked the fact that this building was abandoned.

But then it got weird. As the couple completed their chanting, they began to change. The man became a woman and the woman became the man; in fact, they each became the other to be more specific...even down to the clothes. It was weirdly fascinating for him to watch as their bodies morph. Jason was so engaged in it, in fact, that he didn’t notice a change was happening to him as well. He was close enough that he was sucked into the couple’s spell. He was swapping bodies with the next closest person, which just happened to be a woman passing by. It would be quite a while before he noticed his own change...

The Boss


Ever since the Great Shift swapped him into the body of his own daughter, Max was having trouble commanding respect at the company he ran. He tried pretty hard, but he was sure the guys that worked for him just saw him as a pretty young girl fresh out of high school instead of the boss that had been in charge for years. He contemplated his options. Maybe it was time to hand the family business onto his daughter. He had always planned on doing so, and he knew she was smart enough to do it. Now that she had his body, he was sure the guys would take her seriously too. Of course, it would be weird when she finally did retire; she’d probably end up giving it right back to him. It was a weird thought, but the Great Shift had made the whole world sort of weird.
