Time for something fun!

Need a little pick me up? Or just feel like playing something really stupid? It's time for a meme.

The Magical Swap Meme
or the 'oops, you done fucked up' meme

courtesy of Luc*

Directions

1. Post your character with the name/canon in the subject meme. In your comment, put your preferences such as, "I don't want to do prompt #1" or "for the gender swap prompt, [character] will look like [this]" or "for the age swap prompt, my character will be 5 years younger".


2. Tag each other and have fun.

Prompts

• Body Swap: Holy shit. You're looking at yourself like you're looking in a mirror. The only problem is, when you're looking down at your own hands... you're in someone else's body.


• Gender Swap: Well, this is new; you're now no longer in the right body, but it's still yours. Were you always a girl? You sure weren't yesterday. Of course, this is probably another one of the city's tricks; no point in getting all up in arms about it, is there?


• Age Swap: Are you starting to see a pattern here? Now you're younger-- or older-- than you were a little while ago. Who're you going to bug about your height now?


• Canon Swap: Your entire history is different now. Suddenly, you're a homestuck. Or maybe you're an elf. Or perhaps you're not even switching canons with the person you're threading with. What's the damage?


• Power Swap:...Like the one above, but with powers instead of canons.


• Moral Alignment Swap: Suddenly, you're evil as hell. Or maybe you're really good now. Or maybe your moral alignment is "eh /non-commital wiggly hand gesture". I don't make the rules here, bucko.


• Luc, you didn't include this swap I wanted to do!: Well look at you, you have a bigger imagination than I do. What are you waiting for? Swap it. Just swap it. Do it, before it's too late.
  

You now have four minutes to save the world.**

*If it's a bad meme, it wasn't my idea.
**You do not have four minutes to save the world. In fact, there's really no point in worrying about world saving right now.

[ Eddie leans over, grinning broadly. ]

I'm counting.

[ Then he goes back to food prep, totally amused. ]

Such a dick.

[ The upgrade did come with a few mental changes, it seems; Damian wasn't that free with his swearing before (it's crude language), but this young man grumbles it down at the pan without reservation.

Todd's bad influence echoing through, more than likely. ]

Okay. So, how do you get that--

[ He points at the curry paste, dubious. ]

--to actually become curry?

[ For a boy who spent a good chunk of his childhood traveling throughout the Middle East, Central Asia, and East Asia, the secrets of how to make a good curry are a complete mystery to him. ]

[questionslinger]

The paste is the key. It's loaded with spice and fragrant aromatic vegetables -- onions, garlics-- to give the spices something to cling to. But in my case, I heat it in the pan, I cook everything in it, and it imparts it's delicious flavor to everything.

[ And it's time to get oil heating and vegetables ready to go in and start cooking. Vegetable curry is tasty curry. ]

[earlybird]

Sounds easy enough.

[ 1. Put things in pan.
2. Cook things in pan.
3. ???
4. Delicious profit.

(Making the curry paste is the hard part.) ]

I like the kind of cooking where you don't have to stand and watch it so it won't burn.

[ Aka not omelettes. ]

[questionslinger]

Well, that's a lot of cooking. Here you'll stir every new and again once we reach a point, but you won't have to hover. It needs to simmer a bit...

[ Because as sauces are mixed, the vegetables need to soak it up and it's delicious flavor! ]

So don't worry about that. This is less 'hover and constantly turn' and more 'work on the rice and then come back to stir.'

[ Which is why he's putting on a pot to boil. ]
