Cleaning Up

The plan was simple...Actually, the plan was needlessly complicated. The rich old man had security detail surrounding him all day, every day, but the criminal mastermind only known as "X" had a devious scheme. He had already stolen a top secret bodyswitching device and stationed himself outside of the old man's house. He used the device as soon as he saw a figure exiting the house. Unfortunately, that person was the man's maid. Still, it would allow him to get close enough to steal an amazing amount of money from the man's house...

Dorm Life

Originally posted on June 9, 2009.

For the first month or so after the Great Shift, things didn't change much in the dorm room of Todd, Pat, and Fred even though Todd and Pat had been swapped into the bodies of two women while Fred were still a guy. Then, of course, after a night of heavy drinking the two men-turned-women bragged about how flexible their new bodies were. Fred asked them to demonstrate and the two obliged. It wasn't long before they all started getting ideas and complicating their relationships forever.

Too Many Times

It looks like John kept his subscription to Great Shift Captions on DeviantArt and kept surfing onto Alicia’s Great Shift TG Captions one too many times. He keeps checking them both day after day in hopes that one day he'll get his old body back.

This was one of my tributes to early "captions" on Fictionmania, which often usually suggested merely visiting the site could cause a transformation. Usually within a sentence or two at MOST.

Quick Decision

Brandon hadn’t slept a wink since swapping bodies with that taxi driver yesterday. He was in shock when it happened, yet somehow managed to drive back to the cabbie’s filthy apartment, as if by instinct. He read the journal and immediately vowed to find a new body. It was a grueling task as he darted through traffic on the streets of one of the busiest cities in the world. Night was pretty dead, but the morning rush offered him hope. Sure enough, a woman headed to Times Square from Brooklyn had a ride that was just long enough to trigger a swap. He knew he didn’t have much time to decide. Her clothes looked expensive...and (of course) he’d be a woman. As she got out, he took a deep breath and said, “Have a nice day.” A gust of wind hit his face as he now stood outside. He had stolen the woman’s body, leaving her trapped inside the cab driver’s body until she stole a life of her own.

It's Electric

Sam had been working as an electrician for twenty years and he had never seen anything like his latest job. He was in the basement of a mansion that belonged to Cheng Bei, the daughter of a Chinese businessman. Wires were connected in illogical manners, and connected improperly. He was fixing up the last one when a bolt of electricity shot up his arm. When he came to, he realized he was in Cheng's body! He rushed downstairs to find Cheng in his body also starting to waken. She explained the house was cursed, but she had never expected anything to come of it. She also started yelling something in Chinese before explaining that he would have to go to a fancy dinner tonight as her while she worked to reverse the curse. Cheng spent hours dressing Sam in appropriate clothing and makeup, but she sighed as she saw him sit like the low-class slob he was...

Not Worth the Risk

Chip had been waiting for the bus for over half an hour, but he wasn't about to call a cab...not after last time. After all, that magic cab was why he was in this woman's body, why he now lived so far from everything. That weird taxi swapped him. First into the cab driver's body for a few weeks, then into this woman's, who was a passenger. He didn't know how it happened, but he vowed to never take a taxi again. He was enjoying his new womanhood, anyway. He was at least 10 years younger and never felt sexier. Another cab might just be a roulette wheel into another life. He had already won once, depite any odds! It just wasn't worth the risk.

Overprotective Mother

Originally posted on November 1, 2022.

When I proposed to my girlfriend, her mother seemed mad. She told me I wasn’t good enough for her daughter and that she’d personally see to it that we would never be married. My girlfriend told me to not take it too seriously; these were just the types of things her mother said. Though the constant threats continued throughout our engagement. I tried to follow my fiancée’s advice and shrug it off, but it was difficult to do so.

Other than her mother’s belittling of me, things were going well, but I never could’ve expected what would happen next. I woke up on the morning of my wedding with the shock of my life -- I had woken up in body of my fiancée’s mother! I was in the body of a 50-something year old chinese woman! I tried not to panic. I put on her dress, which was more difficult and uncomfortable than I imagined, and made my way to the ceremony. I tried to think of what I could say to my bride-to-be to convince her of the truth. That would make her think I was really me and not her mom trying to up with a wild excuse to call of the wedding or just seeming absolutely crazy. When I realized I couldn’t, I just remained silent. Maybe we’d swap back later and this nightmare will be over. However, this seemed much less likely after later in the ceremony when my former body pulled me aside and told me, “I told you that you would never marry her. I will look after my daughter forever, no matter what it takes. Even if that means I am now you for good.”

Annoyed

Bob looked at the text on his phone. It was Renee. Again. This has to be about the hundredth time she'd contacted him since the two had swapped bodies. It's not like she ever had any knowledge of how to switch back; she'd always just see if he had found a way to do so. Honestly, he had stopped looking for a way to get his own body back a long time ago. He loved being in Renee's body, and her constant pestering was just getting annoying.

Couldn't Believe It

Originally posted on February 17, 2012.

Jake couldn't believe it! He must've really pissed his wife off this time with his comments. He couldn't even quite remember what he had said. It was something like how all women had to do was bat an eyelash to get just about anything they wanted. Now she had placed some sort of curse on him, and he was a woman! He cursed. He could probably deal with all the make-up and the uncomfortable clothes, but the breasts he had were so large that his back was hurting!

Relaxing

Originally posted on September 19, 2012.

Brandon should've read the promotional material more carefully. He had gone to the spa after finding a flier. Work had been very stressful lately, and he this resort's material had promised to make him feel like a new man. Actually, had he read it closely, it said it would make him feel like a "new person." The not-so-subtle difference soon became apparent as waters from the spa's magical pool cascading upon him, transforming his body. Though Brandon had an initial sense of panic, it all soon faded away. At least the experience was relaxing.

Caution

Originally posted on June 4, 2011.

It had been decades since the old factory closed down. No one ever talked about why. The truth was that the company had been working on strange experiments there, but particles leaked. These particles were found to have strange effects on people. It would transform their forms, switch two people’s brains, and other fantastic occurrences. By closing the factory, the owner had thought the problems were contained. But he never counted on kids from the college poking around. Looking for a place to down a few beers before heading to the beach, Tony and his girlfriend, Nancy, slipped into the inner wall. They ignored the caution signs, but soon wish they hadn’t. Within an instant, Tony and Nancy fused together with Tony’s mind in control of Nancy’s body. Not knowing what else to do, he made a quick exit.

Dance Class

Originally posted on March 25, 2023.

When Mason was little, he always used to ask his mom to sign him up for ballet class. She would always refuse, telling him that ballet wasn’t for boys. Even through high school, he would ask and she would say no. When he finally went off to college, he had mostly forgotten about it as he focused on his studies.

But on winter break when he returned home, the Great Shift struck. Suddenly Mason was now inside the body of his own mother. He recalled asking about ballet class, and he now insisted, since he was technically female now.

As so he showed up to the first class in his mom’s body with a tutu. He paid attention to the teacher and was ready to try things out. Of course, his mom’s body was nearly 50 years old, so it didn’t move quite like a youthful ballerina might, but he was still damned determined to make it work. He had dreamed of this for 20 years!

A few months passed, and I began to really began to embrace the fact that I was a beautiful woman. Part of this was likely due to the fact that I had quit my job immediately (I felt like I couldn’t explain what happened to me with a straight face), and I ended up taking up work as a model to pay the bills. The photographers and talent scouts were underandably impressed with the sort of superhuman things I could do.

Marvin also helped with the rent in the early months before the checks starting coming in. He was always a good friend, and his name was on the lease of the apartment we shared, so it made sense. Because of our long friendship and his kindness, we tried dating. Unfortunately, my super strength extended to all the muscles in my body, and I ended up severely injuring him when we got close enough to try sleeping together. While he was in the hospital recovering, I stayed by his side with only short trips to the nearby park for some fresh air. I used it to clear my head; I thought about breaking it off. But we ended up deciding to stay together; we just weren’t going to do THAT again any time soon.

There didn’t seem to be anyway to reverse this. It’s not like I could select my original body in the game as a character and hope for another power surge. I resigned myself to the fact that I was stuck, but I did ask if someone could pick me up some normal-looking clothing. A bunch of guys at the arcade quickly volunteered to get stuff for me in the wider mall (I’m guessing they thought they’d be able to see me change in front of them or something). But when they returned with some sweats and yoga pants, I was lucky the arcade had a back room where I could put them on. Marvin asked if I wanted to head back to our apartment, but I told him I could make my own way. I just wanted to be alone for a bit. I ended up just wandering in the mall. I checked myself out in a few mirrors. My reflection was still so weird to me. I suppose I was thankful that without the outfit, I did just look like a normal woman. Granted, I still had a great figure and was quite attractive, but I wouldn’t be drawing the same kind of attention I had in the arcade. Small favors, I guess.

VR Malfunction (Part 1)

The new VR game was the hottest item at the arcade. I went down with a bunch of friends the day they installed it. The lines were long, but it was worth it. Everything felt so real. When you played the games, it felt like you really were the character you played as.

But on my third round, something happened. There was a power surge or something and the lights went out. I took off the headset and was shocked to find I had been transformed into my character! Suddenly, all eyes were on me as I was now the living embodiment of so many gamer guys’ crushes.

My friend Marvin asked if I had my character’s powers. I wasn’t about to kick anyone to find out, but we figured out a few other tests. I could lift the arcade cabinets with ease, and when I played the games, my reaction time was insane. And luckily there were high ceilings, because I could jump unbelievably high. In a lot of ways, it was really cool. If only I had selected a male character though, then I wouldn’t be stuck in a woman’s body!

Reporting Live

“...And I’m Lori Graves, I guess, reporting live from midtown. Back to you in the studio.” David paused, and it felt like forever before he heard the next words.

“Cut,” The cameraman finally said, “You did great. Thanks for filling in for Miss Graves.”

David sighed, “I guess I’m not just filling in for her. I AM her now. At least that’s what they were saying in the studio, right? This Great Shift thing; they say it’s going to be permanent.”

“How could they possibly know that yet? It’s been like an hour since everyone swapped bodies. And you did a great job reporting on the scene, by the way; I’m sure they’ll keep you on even if you aren’t the real Lori Graves.”

“I think her body must have some sort of innate ability or muscle memory or something. I’ve never been good at any sort of public speaking! I’m a construction worker for God’s sake! Or I was at least. Don’t think I can do that anymore. If I do have Lori’s abilities, I guess I might as well pick this up again. Are we going live again soon?”

Who Am I?

It had been three weeks since Eileen and her husband had been captured by the mad scientist and locked in cells. And last week, Eileen’s husband was taken out for some sort of experiment and he never came back. Things got quiet for a while until the mad scientist took her for a bit of a tour where he opened doors remotely while guiding her around with his voice.

The tour was mostly empty cells, but there was a few failed experiments with mostly disfigured bodies. It was horrifying. As she neared the end, a cell door slid open and Eileen was shocked to see what seemed to be her own body.

“Did you clone me?” She asked with disgust.

“It’s more like a copy,” The voice of the scientist said, “You see, inside that body is the mind of your husband. I was able to transform him by copying your DNA. What may be most remarkable is that he thinks he is you. I have made it so he is not able to see you right now, but don’t worry, I already gave him a tour earlier and he asked quite similar questions when he saw you.”

“But if he doesn’t know who he really is...” Eileen thought about this carefully, “How do I know that’s not really Eileen? How do I know I’m not her husband trapped in a copy of her body?”

“You don’t,” Laughed the scientist.

“I might not really be Eileen,” She whispsered, “I might really be a man? Oh, god!”

Big Man on Campus

Originally posted on May 18, 2023.

A strange explosion on campus had caused the everyone at the college to swap bodies. Before it all happened, Chad had fancied himself a “big man on campus.” After all, he was a legacy; he was handsome; he was a member of the most prestigious frat; and so on. And with explosion that all changed.

He had no idea whose body he swapped into. He didn’t want to know. She was ugly; she was a troll. And, sadly, he was now her. Several of his frat brothers had also swapped into women’s bodies, but they were all hot! Chad wouldn’t say he was jealous -- as he’d prefer to have swapped with a guy or not have swapped at all -- but he felt like he really got it the worst. His hair was frizzy; he had to wear thick glasses; he had a big nose. The list could go on for him. He hated everything about this body. His only thought was when he went home for break, he could ask his parents to get plastic surgery. Maybe if he spent enough money, he could do something to improve this body’s appearance, but he wasn’t hopeful.

Magnificence

Originally posted on January 12, 2024.

While others were screaming or in a panic, Devin was calm. He still didn't believe the Great Shift had actually happened; it must be a dream. After all, getting such an amazing body seemed absolutely impossible to him. He didn't know whose body he is, or what company she worked for. He simply went down the elevator and onto the walkway in front of the office.

There, he just tried to explore the magnificence of his new body. It was amazingly flexible; he could move it in ways that he never could have dreamed of moving his former body. He wondered what she did in such a corporate office; he imagined she could be a ballerina if she wanted to. -- Well, not anymore, as this body was not hers anymore.

He began to dance. Even the high heels weren't a roadblock; the body just had a natural instinct about it. The more he did, the more he was sure this was a dream...

Time

It had taken years of study and calculation, but Ivan was sure his equations were solid. And if they were, traveling through time would be theoretically possible. The catch was simple enough, matter could not be created or destroyed; he couldn't send his body to the past. However, he could send his thoughts back to inhabit an existing body.

Three months after completing his equations, he had a device that should work. He set it up to take him to December 3, 1953 in New York City for a period of 24 hours. A simple press of a button and soon he inhaled the smog in the air, saw the classic cars on the street, and heard the bustle of the City.

But he also heard the shouts of racial slurs. It took a minute or two to realize they were directed at him. There had been no way to calibrate the machine to specify anything about the body he would be sent back into. He probably wouldn't have picked being a Black woman in 1953, which is exactly what he was now. That was the exact situation he now found himself in. As the shouts grew louder, he felt like he needed to get out of there as quickly as he could. But he was stuck here for 24 hours, where was he going to go? And would they follow?

Dog Day Afternoon

Originally posted on December 14, 2019.

Henry was always tinkering around with something in the garage, and his latest invention of a body swapper was quite impressive. His girlfriend Angelica begged to be allowed to use it. She wanted to experience being in the body of an animal for a while and suggested swapping with Henry’s dog, Rex. It took a few days to talk Henry into the idea, but he ultimately just couldn’t say no to Angelica.

As soon as she got into Rex’s body, Angelica wanted to run around the neighborhood, to feel what it would be like to be wild and free. Rex, on the other hand, just continued to do weird dog stuff despite his now human body. When he saw his girlfriend’s body licking just about everything, he got concerned. He knew this would probably make her sick and decided it might be best for him to swap himself into Angelica’s body and Rex into his own body. If anyone was going to get sick, it was going to be Henry’s body.

So sure enough, he did just that. Henry then waited, feeling the uncomfortable weight of breasts on his chest and heels on his feet. He did his best to keep Rex from doing anything too bad with his body, but he really hoped Angelica got home soon...

Slippers

Originally posted on October 6, 2019.

It all began as a joke when Adam found the ballet slippers with his girlfriend. They both laughed as he struggled to put them onto his feet, but they stopped laughing when the slippers laced themselves up and Adam couldn't take them off. Then his body transformed into that of a dainty woman and his clothes morphed into a ballet outfit. And to top it all off, it seemed he could only walk on his tiptoes, just like a ballerina. He begged his girlfriend for help. She just asked, "Who are you?"

He tried to protest, telling her she just saw him transform right in front of her eyes. She just looked at him like he was crazy and ran off. She had been there! She had seen everything, but it was like this is how things always had been and she had no knowledge of what just happened!

Adam discovered he could change out of the ballerina outfit and into regular clothes, but the slippers were stuck firmly on his feet with no way off. To make matters worse, he couldn't stand or walk in anyway but on his tiptoes. The only reprieve he got from the painful experience of always being en pointe was when he sat down. This was all like some sort of nightmare curse of these damned shoes.

Another Chance

Originally posted on December 27, 2013.

Trevor ran through the events of that day in his mind ever since it happened. It started with meeting the woman of his dreams and her having no interest in him. Then he found a magic spell he thought would make her love him; instead it swapped their bodies. The weird part was that now the woman in Trevor’s body thought that she was always him. In a way, he had a second chance, but Trevor could never see himself being with another guy...even if he was in the body of a woman and even if that guy was him.

He wondered if he had just accepted if the swap would have reversed itself. Instead, he was now stuck in this woman’s body. With Trevor in control, he acted far less feminine than she did before he met her. He slouched about, avoiding skirts and dressed. He never felt comfortable in this new body, but he had no way to fix things.

"What do you want?” Jack asked without slowing down from his jog.

"That's...that's my body!” The man huffed, “Or it was my body before the Great Shift!"

"Oh no! You are not trying that line on me! Do you know how many people have tried that line on me? The first guy who tried it hadn't been affected by the Shift at all. He used his ex-girlfriend's wardrobe which didn't even fit, by the way to try to convince me. But all he wanted was to try to sleep with me! Then there was that woman who was overweight, who just wanted to try to set up a claim to this body just in case they ever found a cure to swap people back. She was a total fraud. The list goes on and on!"

"But I'm serious! That was my body!"

"And every single one of them always says THAT too! You may be a nice guy, but I'm never going to find out because there's no way I'm going to let you get close with that sort of line! I've been burnt too often; sorry!"

Blurry

Ronald's vision was still blurry when he first looked into the mirror after recovering from the Great Shift. Was that a woman in the mirror? If that's a woman in the mirror, then that means that woman...is him? He was still trying to figure out what happened when that light entered his living room and knocked him unconscious, but he was thinking that he wasn't much liking what had happened to him. He was no longer himself!

Triggered

Harold couldn't believe what he was about to do. It had been a year since that crazy woman stole his body, and he had been stuck in hers. Now he had finally hunted her down and had his own body in the sights of a gun. If he pulled the trigger, there'd be no chance of ever being himself again, but he knew that it was unlikely that the woman would swap back with him anyway.

Stupid Ballet

Originally posted on January 7, 2023.

Anthony’s wife had pressured him to come to a ballet performance. She insisted he needed some culture. He couldn’t believe how long and boring it was. Finally, after more than two hours, it seemed to be coming to a close. As the lead dancer leapt into the air, she came crashing down with a flash of light, and it was almost like Anthony could actually feel it.

He soon realized that he actually did feel it. He was now on the stage in front of the large crowd with a spotlight on him. He could see the scared look in the faces of the people in the front rows, and he was nervous himself. He hadn’t just found himself on the stage; he was now inside the body of the lead dancer! He was wearing tights, and ballet slippers, and a damned tutu -- not the mention the fact he was now a woman!

He cursed his luck. None of this would have happened to him if his wife hadn’t forced him to go to the stupid ballet!

“Esc! Cancel! Undo!” Garrett mumbled under his breath after he accidentally clicked on an advertisement. He had been gaining weight since turning 40, and the ad was appealing.

It had read, “Get a fit body in 40 seconds.” It technically wasn’t lying as a beam shot out of Garrett’s computer to transform him. He was now certainly fit...but he was also a woman! He hadn’t even put in a credit card or agreed to a terms of service. It had just done it!

Now he was trying to undo it. If he couldn’t, he had no idea what he was going to tell his wife when she got home.

What the Hell?

“What the hell?” Both Ryan and Julia said in unison as they opened their eyes as they picked themselves up off the floor in the wake of the Great Shift. They both wondered why they were looking at themselves before realizing the true horror of being in each other’s bodies.

The were simply two strangers who had been working out next to each other at the gym. Ryan had been admiring Julia’s body -- hoping she wouldn’t notice he was checking her out -- but he certainly didn’t want it like this. Meanwhile, Julia was weirded out about being inside the body of the guy who she thought was sort of skeevy by the way he stared at her. She didn’t want to give him her number of tell him where she lived, but she was also realizing she probably wouldn’t have many options otherwise...

Compromise

Originally posted on June 30, 2019.

When Greg swapped bodies with his fiancée Kate as a result of the Great Shift, he knew it was going to be difficult. However, they were still both committed to making it work. And while compromise was at the root of every relationship, being body swapped took that to a whole different level. For instance, Greg completely refused to wear dresses, and he wasn’t ready to make an exception for the wedding. Kate, of course, always had dreams of her body walking down the aisle in a gorgeous gown -- even if she was no longer to the one who was going to be doing that walking. But they did reach a compromise.

Greg’s wedding outfit wouldn’t be a dress, but it would still be feminine. He agreed to a veil, and he even agreed to heels -- which he never, ever wore normally. Kate was more than pleased with how her body looked. It wasn’t a gown, but it would work. On the flip side, Kate had no issues with wearing a suit, but she did get Greg to agree on several other things she insisted including the menu and the venue.

As weird as this all was for Greg, he was still happy to be marrying Kate.

Argument

After Angela begged Elliot to swap back bodies with her, a smug smile came across his face as his slid down into his chair at the cafe.

“So you expect me to return to the body swap clinic with you in order to return to our own bodies?” He laughed, “Forget about it! The whole argument about who had it harder, men or women? It was a ruse. I just needed to trick you into swapping bodies with me. Every since we swapped I have enjoyed each minute of being you, and I plan to keep enjoying it. I don’t have any plans to swap back with you...ever! This is my body now.”

Angela’s jaw dropped. She couldn’t believe Elliot would do this to her. He was her best friend. She had just had a simple argument where she claimed women had life so much harder than men, and when he disagreed, they had visited the body swap clinic for a quick swap. She never imagined how much she’d miss being a woman and decided to fold quickly. But now Elliot wasn’t going to swap back at all? She was on the verge of tears!

Evan shot a cold gaze across the room. He couldn’t believe he saw his old body standing there. It was seemingly impossible, but he obviously recognized it instantly. After he had used the Medallion of Zulu last year to steal Claire’s wealthy body, he had left her stuck in his poor, penniless body. There was no way she should be able to afford to be at this gala, yet there she was. He was nervous. He had long since ditched the Medallion, but the fact that she knew the truth meant she was still a threat. What if she had found a way to prove who she really was? Or worse, what if she had found the Medallion? The last thing Evan wanted was to go back to his old body, his old poverty-stricken life. He needed to figure out what she knew, but he had to do it at a safe distance...

On a brisk winter day, Miles and his girlfriend Gemma had gone for a walk in the freshly fallen snow. Deep in the woods, they encountered a strange glowing item that swapped their bodies. It then became dull and touching it again did not swap them back. After waiting a while, they determined it was best to head back home and come back to try later.

As Miles began to pick up the pace a little, he felt Gemma fall behind before realizing she had stopped completely. He turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" "Why did you lie to me?" She replied.

Miles was confused and wondering what he was being accused of. "What are you talking about?"

"When I put those snowpants on this morning, I asked if they made my butt look big, and you said no!"

Miles paused a moment, “Technically, I didn't. I said they make your ass look good, which is totally true! I certainly appreciate a nice plump behind! And I always love the way yours looks -- even from this new perspective, by the way! And since you're in my body and probably my hormones, surely you have some sort of appreciation for what you see as you walk behind me."

Instead of answering, Gemma just blushed, a little afraid to admit that her boyfriend was completely right!

This Will Change the World

Nearly everyone at the research center had attended the funeral of Dr. Alvin Hudson. The man had worked there for over 70 years; he knew everyone. He had done groundbreaking studies on longevity, and some were sure he had experimented on himself a few years that allowed him to work until the day he died, well into his 90s.

No one expected to arrive on Monday morning to see an excited young woman in the main lab.

“Woo! It worked!” She shouted as the first few people entered.

They looked at her puzzled before the woman kept explaining. “It’s me,” She said, “I’m Alvin! I did it! I cheated death! It’s a long story, but I did it! If you’e wondering why I’m female, well...the problem I had with regenerating was all on the Y chromosome, so I just had to eliminate it, and...here I am! Or still am! Yes, my old body still died. And I know this is all a shock, but it worked! This will change the world!”

Saving Humanity

Originally posted on June 7, 2023.

I saw a weird burst of light coming from the alley next to my building while walking home and saw two oddly dressed women standing there. It got even weirder when one of them opened her mouth.

“Greetings, human male,” She said, “I trust I speak your present day language approximately. We arrived from the future and seek aid in your time. When we come from, men folk have gone by disease. We require a body for mating. A man’s body if we may take you.”

I smile thinking this was too good to be true. Were two women really offering themselves up to me right then and there? “Besides, ya know, saving humanity, is there anything in it for me?”

She tilted her head and said, “You may select which of us you want.”

I was a little disappointed I wasn’t going to get to do both, but I pointed my finger to the one on my right, who hadn’t said anything yet.

“Very well,” The first said, seemingly content with speaking for both of them.

I expected to lead the quiet one back to my room or teleport to some breeding ground in the future, but instead the flash of light simply appeared again. The two women fom the future were gone...well, sort of.

The talkative woman went back to the future with my body, but I got stuck in the quiet one’s body. Luckily, she did have a voice. I was able to speak, but I was now stuck in the body of a chick, wearing her odd future clothes, and they had stolen by body!

Scared

Clifford was absolutely shocked by the puff of smoke in front of him. When it cleared, a woman dressed all in red with a pitchfork stood in front of him. He questioned, “Who are you?”

“I’m the devil,” The woman responded, “I’m here for your soul.”

“The devil? No way. Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re just not threatening at all.”

“You’re probably too young to remember. About thirty or forty years ago, I used to have the scariest body possible: ten feet tall, fire red skin, big muscles, real horns and tail, the whole nine yards. Then there was this weird body swapping event you humans would come to call ‘The Great Shift.’ I’m sure it’s in your history books. As it turned out, not even I was immune. I ended up with the body of suburban housewife. Luckily, despite looking far less frightening, I maintained all my powers. I never age and remain immortal; I can still harvest souls; I still have all my magic. You should still be very scared, Cliff, because I am here for you.”

Suddenly, Clifford began to look a lot more scared...

Let Down

As Thomas entered the room, William turned toward him with an expression that seemed prepared for a let down. William paused before he spoke, “You better have found a way to fix this whole body swap thing. Your machine caused me to start randomly switching with people a month ago. I was switching with people every few hours, and you and I seem to be the only ones who actually realize it. And then I got stuck in this woman’s body for days for some reason. And now she’s about to get married. I am NOT going to be this guy’s wife.”

Thomas paused, “I’m afraid I have some bad news then. I managed to use my machine to remotely stabilize your swapping, but that means the body you’re in now is yours. You’re going to be stuck like that.”

William went from let down to angry. He was about to unload but was interrupted to be called down to the ceremony.

Channel Surfing

What the heck was wrong with this remote? Daniel had been trying to use it to flip through the channels for a few minutes now, but the image on the TV remained static. What he hadn’t realized was each time he pressed a button, he would change ever so slightly, becoming more and more feminized. After a few minutes of trying to channel surf, he was a full-on woman would an outfit to match, but he still hadn’t realized the changed to his body.

Ball Game

Originally posted on December 23, 2013.

Ernie had been friends with Gus and Al for years. The two friends had both been worried about their pal since they had heard he had undergone a serious procedure for his health issues. To celebrate his recovery, they invited him to a ballgame. The old men were a little surprised to see Ernie had undergone a full body transplant. Even stranger, it seemed the old man was adapting to his young, female body quite well. He was even doing things like wearing high heels and carrying a purse. As strange as it was, the three pals still had a great time.

Why?

“When we swapped bodies last month ago, I thought it was some sort of cosmic fluke,” Lisa told her husband Ryan, “We both seemed to struggle adapting to being in each other’s bodies. We promised to look for a way back to normal. But now I see this? A $3000 charge on our credit card to something called ‘Body Swap.’”

“I’m sorry,” Ryan confessed as he looked at the credit card bill Lisa handed to him.

“I just don’t understand why. Why did you swap our bodies in the first place? Why do pretend to look for a way back when you knew about a way back? Why did you lie to me about so much?”

“I don’t know. I intended to swap back after a day, but I just enjoyed being you so much. I thought you’d never know. I can’t even fully explain why I was curious in the first place or why I felt compelled to pay so much to do it...”

Hotel

Terrance was on a business trip when he heard loud noises coming from the hallway in his hotel. He investigated to find a very drunk woman stumbling around and struggling to get into her room.

“Hey, Baby,” Terrance suggested, “If you are having trouble, you can always stay in my bed.”

“F*ck you,” The woman slurred, “I know what this looks like. It probably serves me right to get hit on by a creep like you. After all, it was less than fifteen minutes ago I was down in the hotel bar hitting on women myself. I was drunk and said something stupid and so did this woman I was trying to pick up. I guess there was some sort of witch down there or something, who decided it would be funny to have the woman I hit on and I swap bodies. So now I’m a chick and you’re hitting on me. It’s so f*cking funny that I forgot to laugh. But, hey, if you want a laugh, why don’t you try this sort of crap down at the bar. I’m pretty sure that witch is still down there, and she’ll probably do to you the same sort of thing she did to me.”

And after her rant, the woman managed to use the keycard to unlock her door. Terrance was sure she was just crazy. A witch in the hotel bar? It seemed crazy, but part of him was now a little curious to go down and see for himself...

Unforgettable Night

"Alright, Boys," Jonathan stated, "We've all stolen our sisters' bodies, and now it's time for a night out on the town. Last time there were only three of us in our little club, but this time allow me to introduce you to Ryan and Mike, who have stolen their sisters' bodies for the first time tonight. Meanwhile, our sisters are back home in our bodies. Tomorrow, we'll cast the spell again, and wipe their memories. They'll never remember being us, but we'll certainly have an unforgettable night as them!"

Foggy

Lee was on the lower deck of a cruise ship when it passed through a mysterious fog. It was so thick that it he couldn't even see his own hand in front of his face, but within a few minutes it passed. Oddly, Lee now himself on the upper deck of the ship, wearing a blue dress and red high heels. Somehow he had swapped bodies with a woman on the ship! Judging from the screams around him, he wasn't the only one...

Too Good for Him

Originally posted on an unknown date.

Dave's girlfriend had broken up with him after she had sold her first screenplay and started to get invited to loads of Hollywood parties. He was steamed. Did she think she was too good for him now or something? Well, he would get his revenge. Using an ancient spell, he possessed his ex's body on the night she was to attend her first awards show. He went without panties and flashed the camera and crowd from the carpet. Of course, his plan backfired as the incident caused her to be the hottest thing in Hollywood. Of course, he could always use the possession spell again. Though the second time, it would be permanent.

Princess

Rodney had been vacationing in a remote country in eastern Asia. He was relaxing and enjoying his time, but it was almost over. On Monday, he’d have to return to work. He wished he didn’t. He wished he never had to leave! He wished he never had to work again! Then a strange flash of light, and he found himself in an ornate room. He tried to stand but was stopped by a man who insisted that the princess not do any work. If she wanted to get someone, he would carry her. Princess? Her? Then he looked down with a shock. He had somehow swapped bodies with the land’s princess! He wasn’t allowed to lift a finger! And apparently, he wasn’t even allowed to stand on his own two feet!

Meter

It had been the weirdest thing Pete had ever found. He had just parked his car and placed a quarter in the meter. A bolt of light came out of it, transforming into a woman. With a bit of testing, he found that whoever put money in the meter would be transformed. There was a two hour limit, but he tried to keep money in at all times.

Forest Elf

A couple guys and I had gone camping in the woods for the weekend. We weren’t exactly the best at being the rugged outdoors types. We couldn’t get a fire started, and we hopped into the car to drive to the closest McDonalds for dinner instead of cooking using the small propane grill we brought. We did all agree that it was an accomplishment that we got our tents set up, however!

Needing to use the bathroom in the middle of the night was an expected inconvenience, but the full moon lit my way from the tents to deeper in the woods. What I hadn’t expected was the ground to crumble beneath my feet due to a sinkhole, exposing an underground lake. Thanks to the light of the moon, I managed not to fall in myself, but I heard a faint “Hello?” from underground.

When I went down into the hole to investigate, I discovered the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She looked slightly more like an elf than human with her pointy ears and pale skin along with her white hair and blue eyes. Without saying another word, she dove into the underground lake, and like an idiot I dove in after her. There was some sort of weird magic in there and when we were swimming it caused us to switch bodies.

“Oh, thank goodness!” She said with my voice, “I’ve been trapped down here forever. Now I can finally leave.”

“What do you mean?” I asked with the sweet pleasant tone of her voice.

“I am, or I was, a forest elf. My skin, that you now have by the way, can’t be exposed to sunlight. I will burn up. And so I lived under the forest eating earthworms and tree roots. I could only emerge at night when most of you humans are asleep. Most of my kind were murdered by humans long along, but the mutation of sun sensitive skin kept others like me out of reach, or a least out of sight. I’m sorry for the fate of my life that I have doomed you to, but I deserve a life on the surface.”

“And I don’t?” I tried to argue as she simply climbed back up and away.

Normal Again

Originally posted on September 28, 2023.

My life felt over when the Great Shift happened. I couldn't believe I went front being your average Joe-Six Pack to being a totally hot babe. At first, I hated it. My body was unfamiliar to me; the clothes were difficult to put on; my first period was literally a mess. The whole world was crazy, too! The World Series was canceled, and the start of football season was delayed I was even able to enjoy two of my favorite sports!

But after a few months passed, things started to settle into a new normal. I got used to my new body and all the new things I had to do to take care of it. The football season may have started late with a slew of new players, but at least it started! I was happy to plop down on the couch with some snacks and enjoy the games. Things finally felt normal again.

Innovation

Originally posted on November 3, 2023.

In the past few years, many large companies have invested a lot in innovation, often allowing employees a significant period of time away from their traditional work to simply explore an idea that could change the world. After some substantial time away, Mitch Harris and Ling Wei were presenting their work directly to the CEO. They were both nervous, but they were sure it was impressive.

The CEO had eyed up the body of the young woman when she entered the room but was repulsed when he saw her face. It didn't seem quite right.

Of the two, she spoke first with a voice that seemed far too deep to be coming from such a petite body. "We've invented a machine that can literally change just about everything of who you are,” She said, "Despite what I may look like today, I am Mitch Harris. Using this machine I transformed myself into the woman you see before you." "The only limitation is that it is currently unable to transform your face or voice," The man said with a soft female voice and Asian accent, "Obviously, we both picked rather extreme changes to represent the device's abilities."

"And the changes aren't just cosmetic. I've been a woman for a month, and I assure you, everything is fully functional and working. Today, we've loaded your image into the machine, and we welcome you to try it out."

The CEO looked at his face on the screen. He could zoom in and out, make all sorts changes like a video game avatar. He first instincts were to keep it simple. Maybe he'd shave five years off his age or give himself a full head of hair again...but looking at what these two had done to themselves, he considered doing much, much more than that.

Viva Las Vegas

Theodore's wife was convinced he was cheating on her. She put a curse on his latest business trip which would only kick in if he was unfaithful. Most of the trip went well, until one night when he brought a showgirl and part-time prostitute back to his hotel room. The next morning he didn't even notice that he was in a completely different body wearing the showgirl's sexy stage costume as he grabbed his briefcase for the day's meeting. Oddly enough, he still scored a good deal at the meeting; however, the showgirl's performance while she was in Theodore's body didn't go over nearly as well.
