Orientation

The experience was overwhelming for Charles. He had put on the body swapping helmet, as instructed. When it activated, it seemed almost instaneous. He was in a similar, but not identical, room. He was clearly in someone else’s body. Soon enough, one of the scientists entered the room.

“How do you feel?” The scientist asked.

“I knew I signed up to swap bodies,” Charles admitted, “But I had no idea you all would swap with me a woman?”

“And how do you feel? Are you disoriented? Any sense of confusion? Blurry vision? Any other problems?”

“I feel surprisingly...normal. Despite the fact that I’m obviously a woman and my body must have all sorts of different proportions, I’m not having any difficulty. I’m just wondering when I can get back to my own body.”

“We need to run a few tests, of course. And following safety procedures for the next swap, we anticipate we’ll have you back in a few months.”

“MONTHS!?”
