Right, so.  Latest batch of weird. No idea what's going on except people aren't themselves.  And not the not selves they were when everyone managed to switch with each other.  These are totally separate selves.  So would everyone in town PLEASE comment with their name here?  Or what you think your name is so I can compare it against what your name

Hi, Lulu Spencer. I'm Mike O'Donnell. And I'm actually forty but now I'm apparently pubescent. Again.

[lulu8889]

Oh god Mike. Nice to meet you. Okay. Troy is Mike O'Donnell. Moira is Sally Sparrow. Awesome.

[troyboltonav]

Nice to meet you too.

...what did you mean by 'what you think your name is'?

[lulu8889]

Well, Tro Mike. People seem to think they're not quite themselves right now. Not sure why, just that it happened to my best friend and my housemate.

[troyboltonav]

So...you're saying I'm not actually Mike? That I'm just...whoever this is? But why would he look like me? I mean when I was seventeen I looked like this.

Unless I'm insane. Oh my God, is that it? Am I just the person you know normally but insane?

[lulu8889]

That is what I'm saying. Not the you being insane part cause you're totally not insane. Promise. I don't know why you and Troy look alike (Troy is the person who you are or whose body you're in or...something.) but you do. And if a purple girl named Clarice starts talking to you, BE NICE, understand? She's Troy's girlfriend and she's sweet and kind.

[troyboltonav]

Ok, ok. Good. I was afraid I was having some kind of weird midlife crisis mental breakdown. They do say everybody in the world has a double somewhere. I guess this Troy guy must be mine.

Troy has a girlfriend? Uh-oh. Well, what should I do? Should I just pretend to be him, or should I tell her right away that something's wrong? Will she even believe me if I do?

...wait, did you say purple?

[lulu8889]

She might believe you. Um. Please don't pretend you're Troy. That wouldn't really be right. And she's not dumb.

Yes, yes I did.

[troyboltonav]

You told me not to hurt her! You don't think it's going to hurt her that her boyfriend suddenly claims to be another person? That's going to hurt no matter how I do it. And yes, I'm going to be careful. I didn't say she was dumb. But in the world I come from which is apparently not this world if someone you know suddenly tells you that they're someone else, people don't automatically start treating you like that other person. They call the guys with the white coats.

Purple. Really.

[lulu8889]

Right but lying would be way way worse than telling the truth. It's not just you, though. She'd believe you. Just...I don't know.

Yes, really.

[troyboltonav]

I'll try. I can't promise how she'll react but I'll try. I have a daughter her age, I'll be as gentle as I can.

I'm glad you told me beforehand anyway.

[lulu8889]

Where were you when you realized you were in a different place, btw?

[troyboltonav]

Let me see. I fell in the river, I came home, I went into the bathroom. It must've been in the bathroom that it happened. I saw my reflection and freaked out, and then I saw the bathroom was different and freaked out more.

[lulu8889]

Okay. Good. The more information, the better, I think. Though usually it reverts on its own

[troyboltonav]

If you figure out what this is exactly, please let me know.

[lulu8889]

I will. I'm trying to work with some guy who worked in the FBI to figure out what exactly is going down with this. Not that anyone'll figure it out but I'll let you know.
