BODY SWAP AU — because Riley loves every surprise but this one
"Alright."
"This is not my voice nor my body or even my hair."
"Look at these fucking curls, I swear to god. I can't handle it. How do people handle only having one colour in their hair? Where is your spirit? Sense of aesthetics? Let me tell you two things though."
"Let's start at the beginning, so I woke up and I wasn't in my bed. At first, I was like, wow, Riley did you actually get laid. I specifically remember not doing so but heck, let me turn this round and show you, it's not my room. Why am I doing that? I'm probably not going to publish this. What am I even using to film this?" [ They shrug. ]
"It doesn't seem to be my house either. I haven't been out and it's been like two days. I went once. Absolutely terrifying, walking is really weird and I nearly broke a damn door. I'm not used to his limbs. Look at this hand move, look at me raising. This is not my hand, but it is. This could be a dream. It's a 'YouTuber thing', but I film myself so much sometimes my dreams turn into goddamn vlogs. Woah."
"Whoever this person is, or who I am now, and whatever he does for a living, it's—I don't know—mysterious, to say the least. This contact called Boss literally texted him an address and some kind of message which I cannot decipher. Is this dude a pizza deliverer? A kissagram? A drug dealer? I think he is a Freak. Who knows. I don't want to get involved with this, really don't."
"My name is Riley du Martoy, but now I'm Micah Warren? Who is this kid? I think he's older than me, which is really weird, I'm a young soul. But still, if he's in my body who knows what the heck is going on. What am I getting punished for? Yeah, I missed one date for my weekly videos. I was getting ready for a bigger one. Do I deserve this? I don't even know. I just have so many questions."
Alas, another missing graphic due to malfunctioning laptop and your admin on mobile again. However that shouldn't stop all of you from having fun during AU week!
I hope you all have a lovely time your body swaps. There will be post later today-- a very important yet disheartening one that had been drafted before my laptop broke--so please take note of it. But like the post will say, it shouldn't deter you but encourage you.
Surprise, surprise: my laptop is broken. Please imagine for the sake of my sanity that this is a photo post with a Freaky Friday screencap and the words printed from the title.
Right, hey guys!
First things first, after reading the information below, you must LIKE this post on every character you have that you wish to participate.
This means that if you have multiple, you can choose one or none, if you wish. And if you have only one, it's yes or no. There are TWO ways for your body swap to happen.
You can swap among yourselves. This means that both of you must message the main saying 'X is swapping with Z'.
If you'd like a surprise or if you're too lazy, you can do absolutely nothing and I'll be using a randomiser to generate swaps.
Dates to remember:
August 11th - This is the deadline for pre-arranged swaps messages.
August 13th - The list of body swaps will be published. This will give you time to gather gifs and plot.
August 14th - A writing prompt will be published where you can write a self-para to them waking up or an experience in their new body. I think this would be a good way to get all those feelings started.
August 15th - Once midnight hits PST, you can start! I'll be posting an opening post as well.
August 22nd - Last day of AU interactions.
I'll admit. This is the first time I've ever organised a body swap AU so please message me if you have had experiences and wish to add!
Also, please track the tag blessau for the week for any updates. Tag your posts with 'body swap au' or any other variety to let people know the context of interactions.
Feel free to message me for any missing information or general questions. I'm sure this will be super enjoyable week.
