300 Pounds

Originally posted on March 17, 2009.

Abe was nearly devistated when the Great Shift swapped him into the body of a 300 pound woman. Instead of letting it get to him, he decided to do something about it. He started eating right, working out on a regular basis, and just taking amazing care of his new body. Two years later, he may not be as skinny as a supermodel, but he certainly grabs the attention of the men at the gym.

Surfing Contest

Originally posted on June 1, 2009.

It was like something out of an 80s movie. Drew, The best surfer on the beach had challenged Taylor to a surfing contest, but Taylor had never ridden a surfboard before. The stakes couldn't be higher - - Drew had stolen Taylor's body so she could surf professionally, and this wager was so that he could get his body back from her! He was at a severe disadvantage as not only did he not know how to surf, but he was thrown off by his new center of balance.

Something in His Drink...

Dave and Harry knew their buddy, Hank, would be pissed when he woke up. His ex-girlfriend had slipped something into his drink at the club that caused him to switch bodies with her. It was the strangest thing they had all ever seen, to see the two of them morph into each other; then they both passed out. They slipped their buddy and his ex into the bathroom to change their now ill-fitting clothes. They couldn't believe how hot Hank's ex was when they saw him in her body all naked. They didn't know how they were going to explain this to him when he woke up...

Loss

Originally posted on November 22, 2023.

Sheldon's lab was in absolute ruins. His latest invention had managed to overload and implode, completely destroying everything by pulling much of it into a singularity. Yet Sheldon standing in the wreckage was proof his invention had worked; he had swapped his brain into a different body!

Unfortunately, his original body now seemed to be little more than a pile of mush on the floor, likely along with the brain of the woman he swapped bodies with.

Sheldon realized he felt a sense of loss. But for his former body, he had always felt so uncomfortable in his own skin, and this new body was much, much better. No, he was sad for the loss of his machine that he would have to rebuild all over again. It had been so much time and effort. He knew he could do it, but he had just wished there was something to salvage, something that he could build off. It would be a lot of work, and he was worried his new body just might end up being a distraction.

Sushi

Originally posted on Novmber 23, 2023.

Tori and Andy had spent the past few days trying to figure out how to swap back into their own bodies to no avail. Neither had made a demand of the other so far, but Tori finally had a request. She had a date with Todd, and she needed Andy to go as her.

Andy agreed readily. He couldn't say no to a free meal. But when he arrived, he was a little taken back that it was a sushi restaurant. Andy's body was allergic to fish, so it had always been something he avoided; he realized he technically wasn't right now (since he was in Tori's body), but it was still an unusual food for him. He just sort of stared at the omakase that Todd had ordered for them.

"Is everything okay?” Todd asked, "I thought this was your favorite."

Andy realized Todd knew a lot more about Tori than he did, so he tried to insert the occasional smile amongst his frowns and down a few of the sushi pieces. He knew he probably didn't leave a good impression; Todd didn't even try to kiss him at the end of the night. Andy told himself he'd apologize to Tori the next day.

But the next day, Tori was nowhere to be found. She was a little sad about missing out on one of her favorite meals, so she ordered some takeout sushi on her own. Andy had never mentioned his fish allergy, so she was in the hospital by the end of the night. Andy couldn't get much information from the doctors, but it sounded serious and life threatening. If things turned truly south, he'd be stuck in Tori's body forever.

However, as no court would likely believe any body swapping story, technically he'd be legally married to his own brother. That didn't seem like an option that was any better. But then again, he could always file for divorce. It would seem he'd have pretty good grounds to do so in this case. Then he'd be able to make a clean break with Lucy's body and continue on with her life as best as possible. He decided it wasn't just the best option, but the only option.

After she swapped bodies with her college dropout brother, Rachel thought it was pretty awful to be in his body. However, she soon learned that it may be even worse to have him in her body. She groaned as she saw him parading about wearing only a bikini on top and eating cereal straight from the box. She begged him to put on something more before they went out, but he shrugged it off, saying that he had already been out and no one seemed to mind.

Feminine Experience

"Dude, what the hell are you laughing at?" Patrick asked his friend Tony.

"We stole these chicks' bodies to experience a few days as women. You laughed at me when I wore pants. You said a skirt is the true feminine experience.”

"Yeah, so?"

"Well, Pat, despite my pants--which are leather and totally sexy, by the way--notice how lady-like I am sitting; my legs are crossed. You're still sitting like a dude, legs spread open, and giving everyone a clear view..."

Pat pulled his knees together and began to laugh as well, “Whatever! It’s not technically my body, is it!?”

Dancing for Dollars

Originally posted on January 4, 2011.

Matt couldn't believe he was dancing at a club for money. Of course, the first part of the disbelief was due to the fact that being in a woman's body was completely baffling to him. He woke up one morning as a woman with no identification anywhere. He found it hard to land a job with no social security number, no driver's license, and no proof of his experience. A sleazy guy outside of the club noticed his pouting one day and offered him a job paying under the table. He would work for only tips, meaning that he would have to shake his money-maker pretty hard to make a decent living. After his first week, he was completely depressed.

"Why not?" He huffed, placing his hands on his hips.

"Just look at you! Santa is an old, bearded man! You're a young woman now!”

"Who said Santa didn't shift along with the rest of us!"

"We need to keep the traditional Santa Claus to provide stability for the young children, Melvin.”

Find It

Jim had been vacationing in Hawaii minding his own business when he heard a scream in the distance. A Japanese woman was running on the beach, yelling her head off about something. She soon came to stand next to Jim and stopped. She looked at him momentarily, as if she was sizing him up. Then she took her hand, which held a strange looking medallion and pressed it to Jim’s chest before throwing it as hard as she could into the ocean. She stared at Jim without blinking as the changes started. Within a few minutes, she was now in his body and he was now in hers. Now in his body, she proceeded to run away. Jim was tempted to run after her but realized that the medallion must have caused the swap. He needed to find it first. He jumped into the ocean in search. The water wasn’t very deep in this area, so he hoped he could find it!

Ben thought about returning to his own room in search of his brother, but he wasn't quite ready to venture out with Lucy's body. He waited. It was about an hour before he heard a knock at the door. After answering it, he needed to sit right back down. He saw Gene's arm around his former body, and then the two kissed. Ben was shocked. Gene tried to explain. He loved Lucy no matter what body she was in. Ben tried to protest. That wasn't just any body! That was HIS body! Even if Gene was gay or bisexual how could he!? That was Ben's body; the body of his own brother! Gene shrugged it off. It didn't matter to him, and it certainly hadn't made any difference last night.

Ben needed Gene to slow down and explain what had happened last night. Gene hesitated, saying that it had been his wedding night. He and Lucy had done what any married couple would do, even if Lucy was inside Ben's body.

Ben's eyes went even wider. He simply didn't believe what he was hearing. This was beyond weird; it was just plain disgusting!

Jason wanted nothing more than to try to find his body to sort this all out, but it seemed Ye Jun was at the center of attention due to the fact that it was her birthday. And much like Jason had effortless sang in a foreign language he didn’t know, he was also able to interact with Ye Jun friends as she normally would. He also felt compelled to post much of the night’s events to social media. A few friends asked about the rumors of Ye Jun quitting the life of an influencer, which Jason felt compelled to deny, but he had the bad feeling the body swap was actually her way of doing it.

Jason was able to go back to Ye Jun’s apartment, apply her skincare routine, and get dressed all on what seemed like instinct. He awoke early knowing her schedule. She had to get to the airport so he could instagram a trip. He selected a cute pink outfit that he knew would photograph well with the airport lights, putting on makeup was long but effortless. Part of him was glad he had been left with all of her skills, but another part of him wish he hadn’t. Was he losing himself to her life? If she did want to quit, it would have been easier after the swap if just didn’t know how. And maybe he didn’t want to keep up her life as an influencer anyway, but he also didn’t know how to stop at this point! It was a whirlwind!

Usually Pass Quickly

Originally posted on November 18, 2023.

Ron’s job had relocated him from the big city to a rather rural suburb halfways across the country. Things were cheap there, so he bought a big house. He wasn’t exactly crazy about living so far from an urban center, and everything just felt as off as a David Lynch film.

It was about a week when a woman arrived at his front porch with a basket. It was hard for him to not stare at her curves, but he did his best -- bringing the basket inside to distract himself as she spoke.

She said her name was Anna; she was his neighbor and welcoming him to the neighborhood on behalf of everyone. She said it all with a southern drawl, which was sort of quaint. As they exchanged additional pleasantries on the porch, a storm arrived. Ron offered to let her come inside, but Anna insisted that these things “usually pass quickly.”

The sky lit up in colors Ron had never seen before, and he soon found himself disoriented, grabbing onto the side of the porch. Once the strange storm passed, he realized the horror of what happened -- he had swapped bodies with Anna!

“What the hell?” He asked.

“Like I said,” Anna replied with Ron’s voice while maintaining her southern drawl, “These usually pass quickly. We’ll probably be back to our own bodies in a week or two. You best get back to my husband now; he really doesn’t like he spending too much time talking with other men.”

“But...I’m not you!”

“Yeah, but he doesn’t know that. He refuses to believe in any of this stuff...even though some quite strange things have happened to him over the years. You get used to it...”

Spring Thaw

When Walter first found the Medallion of Zulu, he was eager to test it out by swapping with his friend Jenny. He didn't want to be stuck in her body forever, maybe just a day or two. But he had heard so many rumors about the medallion going missing while swapped that he knew he needed a plan. He thought it was simple enough, to dig a small hole in the backyard and place the medallion inside overnight for safe keeping. He hadn't expected the freak snowstorm while he slept. Now the Medallion was trapped under six feet of snow. Plus, he had no way of finding the marker to indicate exactly where it was buried. He only hoped to be Jenny for a day, but it seemed now he would be her until at least the spring thaw.

Mike had been working at his small repair shop for about thirty years now.

His latest was a rather remarkable device that allowed him to possess another person. He pledged to test it on his next customer. It didn't take long for one of his regulars to walk through the door, a young blond woman by the name of Marlene. She would always bring in things with the silliest things wrong -- one time the batteries in her clock had simply run out of juice -- so Mike didn't consider her the brightest person. It didn't matter. He fired up his device and zapped her. Soon enough, he had possessed her body while his own lay lifeless on the floor. He dragged his own body into a closet for safe keeping. It was heavier than he imagined, or maybe Marlene was just rather weak. He hadn't decided exactly how long he was going to stay like this, but he was sure going to enjoy his time.

The Prison

I wasn’t quite sure exactly how they snuck up on me to kidnap me and place me in a prison. I figured I was lucky that they hadn’t locked it, and I began to explore around in order to find a way out.

I came across a woman sitting in a cell. She looked extremely beautiful but also skinny enough that I was worried she was malnourished. I opened the door to her cell; it had been unlocked as well, but she didn’t seem anxious to escape.

“You’re new? So I guess he’s not dead,” She mumbled before speaking more clearly, “There’s this mad scientist, and he does weird things to people. I used to be a guy like you until he transformed me into...this! Yeah, I look like a woman, but I’m not sure. Part of what he did to me makes me unable to take off this outfit. Maybe it’s my skin? I’m not sure. I don’t seem to need to use the bathroom anymore; I haven’t in months. Or at least it seems like months. He stopped feeding me shortly after he did this as well; that’s why I thought he was dead. But if he has taken you and placed you here...well, I’m sure he had plans for you. You’re probably in the stage where you think there is escape from this place. There is no escape. He will only release you when he is done with you. And maybe now that you’re here, he will be done with me soon.”

Before Gene returned, Ben had fallen asleep leaving his brother stuck outside in the halls of the hotel for the night. When he awoke the next morning, Ben had assumed it was all a dream, but a quick examination of his new body gave way to the obvious conclusion that swapping with his brother's wife had been an all-too-real experience. He played with her hair for a bit, marveling at the length -- he had never had long hair as a guy. Then there were the breasts. They were so heavy! He guessed part of that was his own fault; he hadn't put on a bra last night. He shuddered. If this couldn't be reversed, he'd have to get used to wearing a bra! In fact, he'd have to get used to women's clothing in general! And being a woman! Things like periods! And not only that, he was married to his own brother! Wait, his brother! He had locked him out last night! He rushed to open the door, half expecting to see Gene just sleeping in the hallway. But he wasn't there...

As they got drunk and sunk their hearts out, they soon began to realize they stayed much longer than they intended. They all agreed on just a few more songs as Jason excused himself to the bathroom. On his way back, he bumped into someone. He didn’t get a good look at them and being a little drunk didn’t help, but he was pretty sure it was a woman.

Before he could return to his co-workers,an arm reached out and pulled him into a different room.

“Ye Jun! Why do you look so confused,” One of the people in the room asked Jason, “It’s your birthday! We are celebrating! Be happy!” The person handed Jason a drink. Jason noticed the fact that his hand clutching the glass had pink painted nails. Within a few more seconds, he noticed they matched a shiny pink dress he now wore.

He could only guess he swapped bodies with the woman he had run into in the hall. But what could he do about it? He tried to think of an excuse to leave, but didn’t even have time to think of something before another person put a microphone in his hand and he found himself flawlessly singing in a language he didn’t even understand.

Second Date

Originally posted on August 30, 2020.

There were no words to describe the horrific nature of what Jack and Anna had just experienced in the museum’s Egyptian wing. Some cursed artifact had been somehow triggered and ancient spirits began to possess guests. In some ways, Jack and Anna had both been fortunate in that neither had been possessed. However, being in such close proximity to the chaos, their spirits did get shaken up a bit. As a result, Jack’s spirit was now inside of Anna and visa versa.

They didn’t speak as they wandered into another wing and finally sat down. Jack still didn’t want to say anything, but as the man, was he supposed to offer comfort? Of course, he wasn’t really ‘the man’ anymore now that he had Anna’s body; maybe she should be the one comforting him? Was comfort even appropriate? After all, this museum trip was only their second date. He began to think how he really didn’t even know Anna all that well, and now he was expected to be her? To live her life? Go to her job? Despite the stress and worry, he still sat silent and unflinching. Anna did the same.

Arctic Research Station

“Probably the only piece of good news is that we’re relatively isolated at this Arctic research station,” Norman Grange reported to the rest of his team, “It goes without saying that machine swapped all our bodies. The effects seems to be limited to the station and the nearby village, where the woman, whose body I seem to now have, lived. But the machine has powered down, and many parts seem worn or destroyed. A good number of them haven’t been made in decades by companies that are long gone. We may never be able to turn it on again, let alone swap back. Whatever body we may currently have may just be our new bodies going forward. We will continue to investigate, of course, but don’t get your hopes up.”

But Blake was a little bit concerned about doing so, and scheduled a meeting with June from HR right away. When June arrived in Blake’s office for the meeting, she was shocked to see how large his belly was.

“I guess I need to ask about some additional work from home time,” He asked.

“We have a maternity policy!” June said quite surprised, “Why didn’t you tell anyone!”

“I wasn’t sure what to say! It’s one thing to tell everyone you swapped with a woman, but a woman who was seven months pregnant? The doctors think I’m due any day now though.”

Not Just Any Taxi

Simon looked at his app to see that every single rideshare service was upping their fees due to congestion, so he signed up for to share a ride with a person going to the same place. He was picked up first, and a woman got in soon after. They didn’t make any small talk as they were stuck in traffic; they both just seemed to grumble.

They both got out in front of the same building. The driver turned to Simon and said, “Have a nice day, Sir.” After feeling woozy for a moment, Simon replied as soon as he was able, “You have a nice day, too.” He suddenly found himself once again feeling woozy.

He didn’t realize he swapped with the driver; he never got a chance to read the journal. It was probably the shortest time stuck in the driver’s body in the history of the magic taxi. But as he now stood on the side of the road in the body of the woman he had just ridden with, he did guess that the swap had something to do with the taxi. He began trying to hail another, hoping to take another ride and trigger another swap. He didn’t want to be stuck as a woman, but he had no clue that not just any taxi would do the trick; it had to be the one specific magic taxi...

He didn’t want to put himself (and Emi’s body) at risk. But he had the training (even if he was worried Emi’s body didn’t have the stamina).

“I’m coming too!” Emi tried to pipe in.

Jack shook his head, “No, I can’t risk you. You’ll be fine. I have savings set up under my name.If I don’t come back, you can survive as me. You’ll be able to cope.”

“And you can survive just fine as me! You don’t need to chase after this thing!”

Jack thought about it, but he didn’t want to be stuck as a woman for the rest of his life. He knew he could do this...

Brother's Wife (Part 2)

Being swapped with his brother's wife made Ben feel so uncomfortable. It might have been due to the fact that he had almost been in a compromising position with his own brother at the moment of the swap or it might just be because he was now in Lucy's very feminine body. One thing was for sure, he didn't want to stay in that awkward wedding dress. He grabbed a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt from Lucy's suitcase and went to the bathroom to change. Gene told him it was nothing he hadn't seen before; that only made Ben feel even more uncomfortable. Even after he changed, he felt weird about going back out to the room. He just waited for a while before yelling out a lie to his brother about having trouble.

Then Ben suggested that Gene go check in on Lucy. After all, if he was in Lucy's body, Lucy was probably in his body. He told Gene the room number and waited for the door of the suite to shut. He deadbolted it. He didn't want his brother coming back. The way Gene looked at Lucy's body was still so lustful, even with Ben inside, and it made Ben feel just a little afraid. He needed to be alone right now.

Abe could see the expression on his former face drop with disappointment before watching his old body shuffle away again. Abe continued to smile as he performed one of the moves he had seen the yoga instructor do earlier. He marveled at not just how flexible this body was but how strong as well! He could hold all his weight up with his arms effortlessly.

He shouted out to his old body that he’d be wiling to swap back if they ever found a way, but the shouting seem to be ignored. Abe remembered how poor his hearing had been before swapping and realized it was likely she just hadn’t heard him. He shrugged. He had no desire to go back to his original body. He was young again and more energetic, spry, and fit than he had ever remembered being in his life. He assumed this could only look up from here.

A Visit to the Mall

A visit to the mall had an unexpected consequence for Joel after he stumbled into a strange store he had never seen before. An old man in a bathrobe behind the counter had given him a free sample of some odd liquid drink. Joel shrugged as he downed it. He felt sort of bad for the old guy; there wasn't a single other customer there. Within moments, his insides began to churn. The liquid was changing him into a woman! He shouted to be turned back, but the old man said the liquid must do its work; it would wear off in a few hours. Joel sighed and decided he'd walk around the mall to kill the time, ensuring he'd be close to the store if it didn't wear off. As he wandered, shoe shops and women's clothing stores started to seem more appealing. He knew he wouldn't be a woman for long, but he just couldn't help but buy a few things. He thought about how hot he'd look in some of them, but didn't really consider that the liquid would wear off before getting a chance to see himself wear these things. Then a thought occurred to him. He rushed back to the old man's store and asked to buy an entire case of the liquid he had earlier. He brushed aside any warning and plunked down his credit card. He was going to see how this new body looked in these outfits tonight!

Magic Makeup

For the last two hours, Ben had sitting in the chair of one of the best makeup artists in Hollywood. He awoke to find a very different face looking back at him in the mirror. He made various expressions like smiling, pouting, and frowning, the makeup seemed perfect.

"This is amazing." He said to the makeup artist, "Despite being a white dude, you actually made me look like an African American woman! I still can't believe it..."

"Oh, you don't just look like one," The makeup artist retorted, "For the duration of this shoot, you ARE an African American female.”

"What!? How? Why?"

"Let's just say I'm magic, Ben, and let's just say that you are about to truly embrace your philosophy of method acting with this role."

Ben had a lot to drink at his brother’s wedding reception. After it was all over he retreated to his room in the hotel where all the guests were staying. Just as he laid his head down on the bed, he jolted awake suddenly on the floor. Ben saw his brother stand above him with a lustful look in his eye. He back himself away slowly and he started to realize that he was wearing a wedding dress. He had breasts -- he was in the body of his brother’s wife, Lucy! As Ben’s brother, Gene, slowly came in for a kiss, Ben screamed for him to stop, telling his brother who he really was. Gene couldn’t believe it. He had thought his wife had gone crazy, but after a long discussion, Ben had convinced Gene about who he really was.

Abe watched his former body slowly shuffle over. He smiled as he sat, stretching his legs out effortlessly into a full split position. He certainly loved not feeling any pain as moved.

“What did you do?” His former body asked.

“Nothing,” He replied, “But I’m not complaining either. The first thing I’m going to do is grab a beer and a nice juicy steak!”

“But you can’t! I’m a vegetarian!”

“And you can still be one. Heck, my doctor will probably be very happy with you for doing so. He’s been ordering me to cut out something or another for years now. But now that old body is no longer mine, I’m not doing any of that crap.”

Roll with It

“How can you be so calm about this?” A frustrated Melinda practically cried.

“I’m not,” Jeff replied with a smile while kicking his feet up onto a table, “You’re the last person I would want in my body for a month. Everyone thinks your neurotic and kind of stuck up. Do you honestly think I want to have to deal with that reputation while in your body, or worse, to have you give people that sort of impression while you’re in my body? Ugh, it’s terrible. But I also know that this swap is for a month, and there’s nothing I can do about that. And so I’m just sort of trying to roll with it. Maybe that’s something you should try too. You can’t just spend every minute of your life acting like your life is over.”

Repeat

Originally posted on April 9, 2019.

When he first found the Medallion of Zulu, Lucas was elated. He could use the odd trinket to turn himself into anyone, which he did quite frequently by plucking a random piece of clothing from the dryers at the local laundromat. But when he was out in a borrowed body one day, an electrical fire destroyed his apartment. Luckily, he had the medallion with him at the time, but all his clothes had been burnt away in the fire. He had no way to get back to normal. Worse still was that he had no access to his money. He got resourceful.

It all started with the technique he had perfected back when he was simply experimenting with being random people. He’d pluck some clothes from a dryer at a laundromat. He’d transform himself using the clothes and spend twelve hours or so in their body. After which, he was often quite tired and hungry, but then he’d repeat the process. He’d go into another laundromat, steal some more clothes, and transform himself again. The fortunate result was that he’d be no more tired or hungry than this new body had been when they took off the clothes. As a result, he never needed to eat or sleep; each swap would rejuvenate him; and he had been young and old, male and female; every single race you could imagine.

Reporting

Originally posted on April 1, 2019.

Kevin was much more used to being behind the camera instead of in front of it, but the Great Shift had suddenly swapped the cameraman into the body of the fashion reporter he was filming. He soon got a call from the station; they were looking for live broadcasts about the Shift and any other reporters in the field were unreachable or completely unable due to their new bodies. Kevin was their only hope. He stood there nervously in front of the camera. He felt hyper aware of everything about his now female body from the weight of the hair on his head to the thick on camera makeup on his face to the bra digging into his skin. But when the camera turned on, so did he. There was just some sort of natural instinct about this body. He nailed the report, discussing the effects on the Shift with the anchor in the studio. Then he moved out onto the street with interviews. He kept going strong for hours, slowly forgetting about the fact that he was now a woman.

Candy

Jason was hungry. He wanted little more than to buy a candy bar and shove it into his face. But he was hesitant. Ever since he swapped bodies with Caroline, she had harped on him on just about everything. What he ate was a particular sore spot for her. She had gotten inside his head. Even though it was the first time he had such an opportunity where there was no way for him to be caught, her voice was still nagging in his head. He tried telling himself that it was just one candy bar, that there was no way she would ever know. But he could hear her saying that she would know, and she’d be sure to make good on all of her threats. So he just sat there in indecision with his stomach growling. What harm could one candy really do?

Check Out

Originally posted on January 29, 2019.

It started out as a typical visit to the grocery store for Michael when he spotted a hot woman in one of the aisles. She looked so good in her high heels and leather pants that he spent a little extra time examining a product he was holding in order to catch a few extra glances of her as he looked up from the label. He also found himself following her into the next aisle and pretended to be interested in some of the organic shampoos and whatnot. Ultimately, he knew he was never going to have the confidence to talk to her and was about to move on when something strange happened. He suddenly felt very strange in his own body. It took him just a moment for him to realize the heels on his feet, the tight leather hugging his legs, and the long hair hanging from his head. It seemed both inexplicable and impossible, but he was suddenly the woman he had been checking out moments ago. He wasn’t quite sure what to do. Surely, if people had swapped bodies suddenly, shouldn’t there be some sort of panic? Even if it was just him and the woman, he’d imagine she’d be approaching him in a fury by now -- she surely got the short end of the stick in this swap. So Michael decided to keep on as if this was normal; as if he was this woman. What choice did he really have? He wasn’t sure what she was looking for here or what else she needed to buy, but he figured he’d try his best to manage.

Doctor's Orders (Part 1)

Originally posted on March 3, 2019.

Every time Abe visited the doctor, he was given more bad news due to his age. A few years ago, he was told he needed to stop drinking. Last year, he was told to cut out red meat. And just a few weeks ago, he was instructed to start taking a yoga class. The 80 year old man grumbled as he stood on a mat at the beach, watching a cheerful Asian woman encouraging the other seniors in class to perform various poses. Most of the time, Abe just stood there. He was sure his body wouldn’t move in just about any of these ways, and was convinced doing so was stupid even if he could. All the while, the instructor did her best to push Abe to try with a smile. Then something odd happened. Instead of standing, Abe was now on his stomach; his hands were inexplicably touching his own feet. His body no longer ached, and he realized he was now in front of the class staring at all the other seniors. Coming to the conclusion he somehow swapped bodies with the yoga instructor, he fell to his stomach and mumbled the words, “Class dismissed.” The other seniors walked away, leaving his own body standing there with a surprised, blank expression.

In a Pinch

Originally posted on September 10, 2020.

This was not how Thomas had expected his business trip would be going. He had flown out Sunday night, first class. On the plane, he enjoyed a few drinks to help him deal with the stress of flying. With a bit of booze in him, he couldn’t stop himself from pinching the ass of a passing flight attendant. He expected a slap to the face, but instead he was suddenly standing in the aisle with heels on his feet as he poured a drink for another passenger. He couldn’t explain it, but somehow he swapped bodies with the flight attendant he had pinched.

After serving the last few rows of first class, he went back to his own row. He had assumed the flight attendant was now in his body, but she sure didn’t let up pretending to be him. He tried to press the issue, but instead got an apology about the pinch.

There wasn’t much choice. He was going to have to figure out this new life he now had. He was stuck as a woman, many years younger, and with an undoubtedly much lower salary. It all felt so depressing. As he walked through the airport after the slight, he tried to even begin to imagine how he was going to cope.

Couldn't Be That Bad

Originally posted on June 3, 2020.

Jack realized he was pretty fortunate to have swapped bodies with Wendy as a result of the Great Shift. For starters, she was also in his body, and they were also pretty good friends. She gave him a rundown of some things and joked that he might be unprepared when it came to picking out shoes, since she owed a lot. He rolled his eyes; it couldn’t be THAT bad, could it?

A few hours later, he arrived at Wendy’s house. Well, she was right about the shoes. He laughed as he opened up a second closet to discover it was even worse than what she described. He wondered how it was even possible to own this many shoes, and if it even mattered. Some of the differences between pairs were so insignificant.

He ended up picking out a pair of red heels to wear.

Did you think we wouldn’t figure everything out based on what you left behind? No one screws us over, Ivan! No one screws ME over! I own you and all you create. There is no escape!”

Ivan had used his body swapping technology some time ago to escape from the Russian mob, and now his former boss, Vlad, was in his new girlfriend’s body and threatening to shoot him in the head. But he also realized Vlad made a critical mistake. Despite the gun, Emily’s body was no match for him. Ivan could easily overpower Vlad and wrestle the gun away. He might hurt Emily’s body, but it seemed like the best option at this point. He didn’t even know if Emily’s brain was still alive. He needed answers, and Vlad was the only person that could give them.

Lawrence had known Kara ever since they were kids. She was always better than him in every way he could imagine. She was smarter, more talented, better looking by far...even when he tried really hard to excel at something new, she’d take a single try and blow him out of the water. The worst part? She was also much nicer and also more popular. Even when Lawrence became a loner nerd in high school; Kara was nice to him, stayed his friend, and defended him against the other popular kids. She stayed in touch through college, and he tried to stay polite. But, frankly, every time he talked to her he felt annoyed and jealous. She had to have some flaw, right? He wished he could be perfect like her!

Then one day he awoke in a large, unfamiliar room. The nails on his hand were painted. He rushed to a mirror to see Kara’s face looking back at him. He was Kara! He had her body! But he wondered as he looked over at the piano, did he also have her abilities? He sat and began to effortlessly play; it seemed he did! He thought about if Kara was now stuck in his body. For a second, he wanted to laugh; but it quickly faded into a feeling of concern. He also seemed to have Kara’s unbelievable niceness. He knew he had to call her to see if she was okay. But the person on the other end of the phone seemed to actually be Lawrence and not Kara stuck in his body. He stopped short of asking directly, lest being thought of as insane. As he hung up, he realized he now had the most amazing gift in the world.

“Relax. It’s been a month since the Shift, I’ve been drinking soda everyday, and your pants haven’t gotten any more difficult to squeeze on each morning! Besides, on your insistence I got the salad instead of the burger. I really wanted that triple bacon cheeseburger, you know? I can at least treat myself with a soda!”

On the day the Great Shift struck, he ended up swapping bodies with the station’s weathergirl, Miranda. Despite feeling very uncomfortable with her body, he didn’t expect much to change. In fact, immediately after the swap he began to walk from the weather map to the main news desk. However, management quickly stopped him from sitting down in front of the camera. They told him that with everyone in the world swapping bodies, it might be best for the viewers to have stability. They theorized that seeing John’s face continue to appear on television sets each night would provide comfort; they wouldn’t even tell people about the swap. Miranda would pretend to be John, and John would be forced to pretend to be Miranda. John resented the decision greatly. Night after night, month after month, he continued on as Miranda. Sure, people still recognized him on the street, but he felt a slight sense of condescension from some people. He wasn’t the prestigious head of a local news team anymore, he was just a weathergirl.

The thing that Bryan hated most about the Great Shift was having to take responsibility for the foolishness of others. Knowing a storm was coming, he had prepared and was settling down with some hot chocolate in front of his fireplace. But the next thing he knew, he was in a car skidding on the road. He managed to pull over, and he luckily found snow chain for the tires in the trunk. But he could not believe that he was having to do this for someone else's car...not to mention having to do it in someone else's body! Someone, he might add, who was a woman and very poorly dress for the cold winter conditions. He simply hated the way the chilly wind blew up the skirt he was now wearing!

The Wrestler

Originally posted on July 10, 2009.

The Great Shift stopped many events midway, but not one particular wrestling match. Both men involved in the main event suddenly found themselves in the bodies of two women in the stands. They each immediately jumped up and got back in the ring. The crowd went wild with very few people aware of the true magnitude of the situation. It wasn't until the match was over before people realized that not only had the two wrestlers been involved in some sort of strange bodyswap but every single audience member as well.
