Ultimatum to keep the job

- "It's ridiculous! How can it be legal?!" 

- "It could have been worse. You could have lost your job."  

- "That doesn't make my present situation any less terrible!" 

- "Well, they gave you a choice. You chose this option." 

- "It wasn't a choice, it was an ultimatum." 

- "The situation was complicated. The company had to hire at least one woman and one Hispanic under the new law. They didn't want to fire their employees, but they couldn't even afford to make new hires in this time of crisis... So they had to choose an employee to ask for a sacrifice..." 

- "It was more than just a "sacrifice"! They forced me to give up my gender and my ethnicity! They told me that if I didn't undergo the procedure they would be forced to fire me! They chose me because they knew that I can't lose my job. I don't have a degree and have a criminal record for stealing beer in a supermarket when I was 18. I couldn't find any other job that would allow me to support my two children. They practically forced me." 

- "At least the procedure was not painful. With the new technologies these transformations are completed in a couple of days and are painless. And they also told that your body will be able to undergo another procedure in some time, so you can get your body back one day." 

- "My body won't be able to undergo another procedure for least 7-8 years! And the term" painless "is not entirely true. Stomach pain and nausea lasted the entire time of the transformation." 

- "I'm sorry, buddy..." 

- "My life is ruined... I am literally a single mother!" 

- "Listen, I'll buy you a beer after work. You need to get some distraction." 

-Ok, I accept. But don't you dare to flirt with me. It's always me, remember it. We are just friends." 

- "Sure! And then you're not my type at all..." 

- "I hope so for your sake."

I finally have a daughter!

 "Well, there's this guy... He's nice. He makes me laugh a lot. We met during the courses this semester. Now he has asked me to study together, as he has difficulty with the last exams. I don't know what to do, I think he likes me, but I'm a bit confused... I've never had a boyfriend, but maybe..." 

* Voiceover *: Finally! Finally I don't see her depressed and melancholy anymore! The second year of college is going much better than the first for my daughter. And finally we are having "girl talks", as I've always dreamed of! I was beginning to fear that I had ruined my son's life when I secretly gave him the potion in the summer before his freshman year of college. His screams the morning he woke up in his, or her, new body... All those crying. Those months of depression. She hardly spoke anymore. But finally for a few months she has been much better! She's "himself" again, but plus I finally have the daughter I've always dreamed of! We went shopping several times (although she complained a little at first). And now she's starting to talk to me about boys! I'm so happy! If this continues, in a few years I might reveal that I am responsible for her transformation... If she is happy in her new life, she will be angry with me, but in the end she will forgive me. 

But after all this time I still don't understand why the potion changed her ethnicity too... I hadn't asked the wizard for a potion to have an Asian daughter! And I wasn't expecting glasses either. Well, I think it's not important after all... the important thing is that she has regained serenity. And that I finally have a daughter!

We'll make it!

-"Hey, don't lose hope. Curl up on the ground and crying isn't helping us any. Look at me. We'll make it." 

-"We've found another dead end. It's always a dead end! How can you be sure we'll make it?"  

-"Because I'm not going to spend the rest of my life in a woman's body. And you don't want to get stuck in a man's body. So we'll do it, because we won't give up. We'll find a way to undo this curse. I promise." 

-"Ok... You're right... We can't give up!" 

After 3 months it's hard not to lose hope, but we can't give up. Each attempt brings us closer to victory. We will get our bodies back sooner or later! And I must admit that during this "adventure" I have grown fond of this girl in my body... When everything is back to normal I think I'll ask her for a date!

The translation

"Yes yes yes yes yes yes!" 

It took me 2 years, but I did it! I managed to translate this damn manuscript! I will finally be able to use it to escape from this body and this life, as did the woman who ruined my life. But before she disappeared with my body, she at least had the decency to leave under her bed the manuscript she had used. If only she had also left the translation of it, she would have saved me 2 years of studies, as well as the frustration of living for 24 months in this body... 

But now this sad story is about to end! I just need to find my body, and I'll be able to repeat the swap. Or, if I can't find it quickly, I might consider getting another male body that I might like to keep. I would hate to condemn a poor soul to relive what I went through, but... better someone else than me!

I'm finally free

"He's dead. He's really dead. The person who kidnapped me years ago. The monster who changed my body on a molecular level through unknown medical procedures, turning me into a woman. The psychopath who forced me to become his wife by threatening my family. He died. I am finally free. After the funeral I'll go with the lawyer to sign the documents to inherit his fortune, and then I'll be able to go my own way. What should I do? Without his medical and scientific knowledge it's impossible for me to get my body back. Should I start a new life far from here, trying to forget everything? Or should I go back to my family? Would they believe me? Would they let me be a part of their lives? I don't know. I need time to reflect. But surely my life will be better from today. After years of humiliation, I'm finally free. I'm free."

I'm curious: which caption has been your favorite so far?

My sweet Becky

- "Becky, it's wonderful that you are here with me again! I knew that not even death could divide us!" 

- "I'm not Becky! I'm still James! I'm the same guy you kidnapped, I keep telling you! With that ritual you performed on me you didn't bring Becky back to life, but you transformed my body into hers!"  

- "Ssshhh My sweet Becky, you are still confused. In time you will remember who you are. After all, you have come a long way from the grave, so it's normal for you to feel weird." 

- "I'm not coming back from any grave! I'm JAMES! You kidnapped me while I was drunk after a college party. You tied me to the center of a strange circle and you read a formula in an ancient language, but you only managed to transform my body!" 

- "Oh, sweet Becky, how long I've been waiting to be able to caress you again!" 

- "Are you listening to me?! I don't know you! Please give me back my body! Or at least let me go!" 

- "Do you think I could allow you to leave this house? Oh, I don't think I can take the risk of losing you again. I will keep you safe. Here. With me. In this house. We will be happy. We will have a long and happy life. Together."
