The ＴＯＯＫ  ＹＯＵ  ＩＮ Shipping Meme

They were on your front door, in your yard, or on the street, confused and clearly in no position to fend for themselves; in a worst case scenario, they were bruised and battered, possibly close to death. Bleeding heart or not, you can't just be so cruel as to let them suffer. They need a place to stay, and you'll open your home to them...long enough to get back on their feet, anyway.

Speaking of feet, the shoe could be on the other one. You're worse for the wear - in a new place, possibly injured, certainly not in the best state of mind. You could not even remember how you got here or who you are to get here, for that matter. You may not want to remember. Whether willing or not so willing, you're in no position to turn down help, especially if said helper won't take no for an answer. No matter how dedicated you are to looking after yourself, there's only so much you can do in your position.

The two of you are staying together, at any rate. Only for a while, the plan is. But after said while, even though strength and confidence is returning to the injured, there's something a little different between you two. It could be the close quarters, the kindness shown, or a number of things, but quietly, softly, feelings have grown. Could more confusion and hurt spring from this? What about when it's time to go? Can the temporary resident leave as easily as they intended? You're so close now, perhaps a little while longer can't do any harm...

...until whatever it was that put them in such a perilous position in the first place comes back, and there could be "justice" for anyone who's dared to help.

ＰＲＯＭＰＴＳ
( BEHIND HERE )

Maybe it was that one in a million jolt of electricity. Maybe it was some alien piece of technology you really shouldn't have touched. Maybe someone strapped you into a machine, pulled a lever with some maniacal laughter, and did this to you on purpose. Or there's the classic going through a teleportation device and ending up the wrong way around on the other side.

Whether it's on purpose or by accident, your mind is suddenly not where it's supposed to be. And who's that walking around with your body?? Hopefully you can figure out how to get it back before they do any damage to it.

Your mind is effectively switched with the person/object you have ended up in. How will you react? How with the other one react when they find out they're you? If they're an alien, maybe they'll decide being human is a good thing and run off with your body. If they're a plant, they'll have to learn throwing water on themselves isn't the best way to drink, and so on. Meanwhile, you'll be trying to find a way to switch back. Communication may be problematic depending on what you've switched with. The mun who posts plays both parts, the character and the object/plant/alien they've switched with in their body.

Instructions
- post with your character name and fandom in the subject line
- tag another person, either you or the poster picking from the list of options or using a random number generator like www.random.org
- have fun!

Scenarios
1. Each Other: The poster and commenter have switched bodies. Awkward? Probably. Time to work together and find a way to reverse this before anyone notices. You may have to coach the other person into how to be "you" properly. Hopefully they're not the type to go running off with another person's body.

2. Animal: Dog, cat, bird, fish, giraffe, pygmy marmoset...small green tree frog. This is now you and the animal is going to be surprised when they find out they're human. Maybe your friend can help fix this situation.

3. Inanimate object: Ever thought about what it would be like to be a toaster? Or a refrigerator? How about a side table? (maybe that's a little bit Blues Clues) But you get the picture. You're an object, you're inanimate, but you're completely aware of what's going on. Your body, however, either believes itself to be a toaster/refrig/sidetable/etc. or it's completely unresponsive till you find a way back. Fortunately for you, the other person commenting is able to understand you somehow.

4. Plant: Time to wax poetic about plants having feelings too because you are now one of them. A beautiful daisy, a prickly cactus, a creeping vine...the plant might have trouble adjusting to your body though. Good thing that person over there is able to understand you, even if they think they might be going crazy talking to a plant.

5. Technology: This is more computer based than the inanimate object option. This takes in televisions, mobile phones, computers and computer networks, etc. Anything electronic in other words. While you're coping with being inside a machine, the machine is trying to adjust to being a human. Someone might start thinking you're a robot unless you find a way to fix this.

6. Alien: Now you're not only not human, you're not even from planet Earth. The alien may have done this on purpose or perhaps you found something you weren't supposed to touch and touched it before they could say no. Hopefully they can tell you how to fix it...that is if they want to. They might decide to start impersonating you instead to your friends.

7. Something Completely Different: There must be something I didn't think of. Take the story in a completely different direction.
