Day 357 — Body/Mind Swap Mingle
[Everything may be a bit topsy turvy today. Maybe you lost your head. Maybe you lost everything else. Or maybe you're perfectly you and it's just your friends and neighbors who don't make any sense.

Good luck going out and about to figure out your new surroundings.]

	[ ...Haha he didn't plan this far, did he. Is it the Chekov he's been hanging out with or the Chekov he was watching on tv as a kid? Who knows! Who can tell. ] I, uh... recognize you. [ Perfect. Not weird at all. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[No, this could be the moment of truth! Chekov has always wondered what his counterpart in the other timeline looks like, other than not at all like him.] You recognize this face? It belongs to a Pavel Chekov? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-08 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	It does. [ Ah. Hahaha. Okay. ] You're the other Chekov, aren't you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-08 09:25 pm UTC (link)
	I am, and I would guess that you are Doctor Reid. [No one else has given any indication that they're familiar with a version of him.] Correct me if I'm mistaken, please. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-09 12:38 pm UTC (link)
	No, you're right. [ He sighs. ] Some day, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-10 01:28 am UTC (link)
	It could be worse. At least we still get to be human. [Not having opposable thumbs is the actual worst.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-10 01:17 pm UTC (link)
	You're right — at least we have the same amount of arms and legs. [ He's not even a woman. Could've been loads worse. ] So, you're okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-11 12:43 am UTC (link)
	Yes, why would I not be? [He really sees no reason to not be okay with this. Space is weird, man.] Are you okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-11 01:04 pm UTC (link)
	I'm... coping. Better not to think about it. [ It's weird and awkward to be this handsome. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-12 03:27 am UTC (link)
	It is uncomfortable, being in the skin of someone else. I have no reason to be uneasy, though, since I'm still a Pavel Chekov. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-12 02:23 pm UTC (link)
	That does make it easier, huh? No assumptions about who you are... nothing too faulty, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-01-13 09:03 pm UTC (link)
	None of that, no, but the hair is terrible. You know the person that your body belongs to, correct? Does that make the experience more strange, or less strange? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-14 09:15 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I do. [ A little too well, judging by the frown. ] We're... acquainted. It's pretty weird being in his body, but I'm more worried about what he's getting up to with mine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-18 04:24 am UTC (link)
	What would he— [No, wait, he can think of things.] Ah. Aha. Maybe it will help if you remind yourself that these are only virtual bodies. Maybe not even the virtual copies are numerically identical. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-18 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	Virtual bodies or not, there's still a psychological bond. Even if this body is only a string of binary code, it's still... it feels wrong. The weight is all off. [ Bulk, smell, eyesight. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-19 03:00 am UTC (link)
	Only for one day. [He pats Reid's shoulder in what is meant to be a comforting gesture. It's probably not that comforting.] There's a Russian saying about walking a mile in the shoes of someone else. Think of this as a chance to do that literally. Not very many people are given that opportunity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-19 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	You could say that about anything. Doesn't mean it's a good experience. [ Idealist Russian. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-20 02:45 am UTC (link)
	Does that mean that it needs to be a terrible experience? [Grumpy American.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-20 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	I wasn't aware that this situation called for a dichotomy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	inwention 2016-01-22 06:44 am UTC (link)
	Tch—you've bested me. I hope it will be at least a mediocre experience for you and, in the future, you will be able to look back on it and find humor in the situation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-01-22 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	I'm sure I will - it could've been worse, after all. [ A wry smile. ] I'll leave you to enjoy the day, I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent)
