Karma

Image
James still laughed sometimes when he saw his body in the mirror. It was funny how fate worked out, how the Great Shift had taken one of the worst days of his life and turned it into one of the best. He had suspected something was up when Alyssa, one of the more popular girls in class had asked him out on a date that weekend. He wasn’t stupid, he knew there might have been some kind of ulterior motive behind it since he wasn’t exactly the kind of guy anyone popular would go after. Still, though, she had managed to convince him that she sincerely wanted to go out with him, and he figured there was no harm in at least going. He didn’t realize until he got to her house that night and saw her and her pack of friends laughing at him that she had been dared to ask out the biggest loser in class, and he’d been naive enough to not only show up, but ring her doorbell with flowers in hand. It’s funny, the Great Shift tended to swap the people in closest proximity to each other. If he’d stayed ho...

First look

Image
John’s eyes fretted nervously as he finally worked up the courage to look up at Amy’s face. As his eyes locked with hers, he realized it was the first time he’d really looked at his coworker for any extended period of time: Not just a furtive glance here and there when she thought she wasn’t paying attention, but really looking at the shape of her eyes, the curve of her lips, her cheekbones, the way her hair fell in front of her eyes… He blinked, almost looking away and apologizing for a moment before he remembered there was no one to apologize to: Thanks to the Great Shift hitting in the middle of the work day, it was now his own face he was looking at, a reflection in the mirror as he stared at the body he’d be looking at every time he caught his reflection from now on. John smiled. While he hadn’t exactly expected it to happen like this, something told him he’d have some fun once the world settled down.

Thanksgiving Swap: Sean

Image
Oh thank Christ we’re not actually related or this would be too weird…” Sean whispered to himself as he slowly slipped out of the robe he had found himself in to get a look at the tits he’d now be sporting for the rest of his life. A few hours ago, Sean would have placed the possibility of him ever seeing his stepmom’s body naked at a strong zero percent. The Great Shift, however, had other plans.   He had done his best to avoid Thanksgiving dinner at his dad’s house the past few years ever since his dad remarried a woman 20 years younger after the divorce, a choice made easier by the fact that her attitude around him was pretty hostile any time she wasn’t actively spending his dad’s money on whatever spa treatment or fashion trend she was obsessed with that week. Still, as embarrassing as it was to admit it, her demeanor only partially spoiled the fact that she was clearly out of his dad’s league, something which made the occasional family dinner at least somewhat bearable. At lea...

Thanksgiving Swap: Harold

Image
  “Say what you will about my grandson,” Harold (67) thought, “But at least the boy’s got good taste in looks! Harold had never thought much of his grandson’s choice in women. Sure, they were usually pretty attractive at least, but as far as he could tell, most of them didn’t have much going for them besides that. The boy was on track to become a doctor with a heavy salary and an even heavier inheritance thanks to Harold, a status that attracted no shortage of hot, shallow women looking for someone to fund their expensive lifestyle. Vanessa, his newest, was no different, boasting all dinner to anyone who’d listen about the upcoming trip to some Caribbean island they were taking, hanging on to her boyfriend’s arm as if someone was going to take him away from her! Harold laughed, imagining how ridiculous she’d look doing that from the body of the teenage boy she was now stuck in. He didn’t know how many times he had told his grandson to ditch the girls and focus on his studies instea...

Thanksgiving Swap: Jose

Image
Jose was still in shock looking at the reflection in the mirror, and at this point, he wasn’t sure if he’d ever get used to the face staring back at him, or more importantly, the chest. Logically, Jose knew his cousin had large breasts. She didn’t exactly hide her cleavage, even at family events, as the deep scoop in the front of her shirt and countless arguments with her parents over what constituted “indecency at the dinner table” proved, but he had kinda tuned it out over the years growing up. Now, with the shock of the Great Shift finally settling down, he didn’t know whether it was seeing them from her perspective for the first time or the fact that he was now in her significantly smaller body, but carrying those same breasts around for the past hour had made them now seem so much bigger. With some difficulty, he managed to unhook the bra strap behind his back, the unfamiliar length of his now manicured nails getting in the way of his fingers clumsily undoing the mechanism and all...

Thanksgiving Swap: Ron

Image
  Ron had expected this year’s thanksgiving to be different, but nothing could have prepared him for what the Great Shift had in store for his family. Six months ago, Ron’s son had signed up for a study abroad program for his second year at college - He was spending the entire year at a university in India hosted by a local family, while in exchange, his own family back home had agreed to host an Indian student from the same program. For the past few months, they had been hosting Kavya, a young woman visiting the US for the first time. When the Great Shift hit, he had been making a joke during the Thanksgiving meal about how uncommon it was to have a new face sat around the dinner table. Now, it was looking like Kavya’s face would be a regular fixture at all of Dan’s future family events, seeing as how it was now the one staring back at him every time he looked in the mirror! Dealing with his drastically changed family was strange enough, with his wife in the body of their 7 year o...

Thanksgiving Swap: Alan

Image
After a long, silent drive home with his family from his aunt’s thanksgiving dinner, Alan (43) was finally beginning to take stock of the new family dynamic the Great Shift had left him with. In a matter of moments, his entire extended family had been swapped across the dinner table, landing Alan in his niece Sophie’s teenage body while his wife maintained her spot right next to him, this time in the tall, lanky body of Sophie’s new boyfriend. It wasn’t until they managed to calm down and do a post-shift headcount, however, that the gravity of the situation finally began settling in. The first bombshell came when he discovered his 16 year old son had been placed in the body of Sarah, Alan’s 40 year old sister. The second, when they found his 12 year old daughter, now stuck in the 20 year old male body of her cousin. Now, mesmerized by his niece’s reflection looking back at him in the mirror in his first moments alone with his new body, Alan was coming to the uncomfortable realization t...
