Drabble the Sixth

And this one's for commodoremarie, who wanted Farscape body-swapping. It should be obvious who the characters who've swapped are. Don't ask me how it happened, though. Oh, and it's also PG, I guess.

O_o y'know, you played it light, and it's vastly amusing :D

but i was half expecting someone/s else and doooood. the implications for evOl are overwhelming with a j/s bodyswap. i think this calls for much more than a drabble.

don't you think? *vbeg*

we could totally gang up on kerne if you didn't want to write it...

Oh, who were you expecting, then? :)

And, yes, the possibilities are evil, angsty and interesting, and there was no way in hell I could tackle them seriously in 100 words, so I didn't even try. :)

This was sort of inspired by that 4th season bodyswap fic I wrote, like, one scene of and never went anywhere with, where John was in Scorpy's body, Scorpy was in Aeryn's, and Sikozu was in Crichton's. Well, I say "inspired..." Mainly, the only point of commonality is that, if I'd actually written it, it would have most definitely included the line "Damn, it's hot in here!"

Anyway, yes, someone should write it, but I've got a lot on my plate, so... *looks in Kerne's direction*

hee. this is you. i thought maybe a stark/zhaan bodyswap, 'cos i couldn't remember if you'd written one already... and i was sort of picturing stark doing the same shimmy with zhaan's body as crichton did with aeryn's. ;D

and then i laughed when i realized who you'd chosen, and then i shivered.

what's the name of the john/scorpy/aeryn/sikozu fic? it sounds familiar.

Heh. OK, I'll admit, I thought about S/Z for about half a second before deciding that I didn't want to have to deal with the question of what it means to swap bodies with someone who's half incorporeal, anyway. :) Besides, Crichton and Scorpy are interesting.

It never got far enough to have a name. I think I posted the tiny snippet of it I'd actually written for one of those "WIP amnesty" memes once. And it was on my list of possibilities for the "finish-a-thon" thing. You might remember it from there, although it didn't win.

Ooh, I love it! Especially the way you nailed the voices. Thank you!

I think those two actually kind of wanted to be a bit wordier, but there's only so much space in a drabble. :)

There's getting to be a very, very long line for "more" of these. :)
