A boy. A suburban neighborhood. No friends, not at all. These are the elements that make up your good ol’ possession or body swap story. Or so Felix thought at the time. He’s read and watched lots of media that fit in his niche kink and yet, he always thirsted for more.
And so dear reader, Felix who’s a boy, lived in a suburban neighborhood and had no real friends except for the ones in his biscord (if they truly are his friends), was to become a protagonist in his own story. It’s something he thought impossible but because of some conveniently placed ‘advertisement’ in social media, his life was going to turn for the better.
‘Click here to live in the body of your dreams’ the ad says. Beside it was a picture of a semi-naked smiling man with powerful biceps. Felix grew up on the Internet and he knows this ad is for some shitty supplement that’ll make your dick grow or something. He scrolled up and forgot the ad a minute later.
Just as he was watching a video about cats, the video stopped to show an unskippable ad showing a grinning skater boy with a text beside him that says ‘Know more about the body of your dreams’. Surely this can’t be, right? They say your ads respond to your recent searches but Felix doesn’t remember searching about penis enlargement supplements in the past. Felix isn’t sure if the ad he’s seeing is about enlargement pills at all.
He clicked at the ad to see how long it’ll last.
89 minutes more.
Felix can’t believe what he’s seeing. Who in their right mind would pay for an ad that long without even saying what their product is? The skater boy in the video is cool though, although his long smile is unnerving. Anyhow, there’s a simple fix for this thing. He closed the video app and opened it again.
He was even more surprised when all thumbnails in the app showed different people just smiling at him with the same texts behind them.
On the largest ad banner, ‘Live the body of your dreams’ says a brown muscular dude with an American flag for briefs.
‘Live the body of your dreams’ says a bear type dude with a brown bushy beard
‘Live the body of your dreams’ says a girl with glasses
“Ok, fine.” Felix clicked on one of the videos and it opened up a browser that immediately downloaded an application package on his device. Red flags signaled for immediate deletion of this file, but before Felix could open his file manager, the package installed itself as an app called ‘BOYD - Body of your Dreams’.
Felix tried to uninstall the app before it could do any irreparable damage but his phone saw the app as a core application and it cannot remove it. If this annoying app has already infiltrated his phone, might as well open it and see what this body of your dreams is all about.
At the back of Felix’s head, he knew something is amazing with this app. This could be like the stories he’s been reading online. Wait, that’s impossible. No such thing could exist in real life. Could it? No. Unless?
With ecstatic fingers, Felix clicked on the logo that showed a cartoonish smile. Just as the app opened, Felix was hit by the most nauseating headache he has felt in his entire life. The world around him swirled and turned upside down. His stomach gurgled whilst his head suffered pain like ten drills are piercing through his skull. The pain lasted for ages but in reality, it merely lasted three seconds. Just as the pain quickly began, it ended with a female voice inside Felix’s head.
“Welcome to BOYD - Body of your Dreams”
“Wha- Who’s there?” Felix around but found no woman in his cramped dorm.
“This is a pre-recorded message from the future and no response will be given lest the user asks a question. Shall we begin?”
“Yes?”
“Good. Sit back and relax as I narrate the story and mechanics of the gift you shall receive. Due to increasing demands of entertainment by the year 4020, scientists and entertainers thought of a show that will surely entertain the entire Milky way galaxy. And that show is you. Scientists from the alternate future will send advanced technologies in alternate universe pasts and see how ancient people wield their power. The one you shall wield is BOYD - Body of your Dreams, trademarks reserved. With BOYD, you can have the body of your dreams with a mere single thought. Talk to someone, even through your archaic Internet, and you’ll feel an urge in your brain that’ll compel you to send your brain waves through their body. We won’t spoil you for the result but we know you have the right notion of what’s going to happen.
With that said, thank you and have fun using the device embedded in your brain. Thank you, especially to our sponsor Trifarian Sables - when your enemies did not die by one shot, you aren’t using Trifarian Sables.
End message.”
Whoa. Holy fucking stupid ass shit! Holy fuck! Holy fuck! Holy fuck! Felix can’t believe what he’s just heard. He laid there in his bed for minutes just thinking about the things he’s going to do with this newfound power. For them, he’s just entertainment for the future. But for him, it’s going to change his life for the better. Holy shit! He still couldn’t believe it real.
