Chronivac Version 4.0

Weird consequences of blacking out

Jeff awoke the next morning immediately taking stock of how he was feeling and realizing it wasn't as bad as the first time. He rolled over feeling a little woozy at the motion, but that was it. That was a welcome surprise. He sat up with a little struggle, feeling like his body wasn't working the same way as usual, and tried to think back to last night remembering only the groups insistence that shots be taken for an upcoming birthday, and an anniversary, and maybe later for a hand? That was by 7:30; everyone came in sat down, and called out the celebrations, and now Jeff was waking up.

"Blackout - I got blackout drunk." Then why don't I feel worse? Jeff glanced at the clock, almost noon. "Oh, I slept longer." Jeff stood and steadied himself with the wall and furniture as he made his way to the bathroom. He felt uncentered and soon realized why. He was big. He had the build of a middle aged adult, complete with the beginnings of a beer belly. It was all compressed onto his 16 year old frame making him look wider. He stepped onto the scale and came up to 230, fully clothed... he started yesterday around 140-150. He switched weight with someone... possibly builds? But who, and can he get it back?

The next problem was his face was doing something funny. His entire beard area was coated in stubble if you could call it that, but he wasn't growing a normal beard, it was all peach fuzz. He obviously didn't trade beards with someone, but maybe someone complained about how fast it grows? Now he has to shave daily and still can't grow a beard.

Jeff found that with the reality changes, he had his own razor and shaving cream in the bathroom, his clothes fit like normal though the size is now XL instead of Medium and his pants were 42, up from a 26. Jeff did a quick internet search on peach fuzz finding it takes 3-12 months to turn into 'real' hair and was both mortified that he would have to put up with this so long, and elated that by 17 at the latest he should have the ability to grow a full beard which he was not on track to have otherwise.

Jeff cleaned up the garage getting a scowl from his father for sleeping in so late, there were more donations this week, presumably for the shots? Jeff took the funds from this week and last and gave them to his mother, she did the majority of the purchasing after all, keeping just enough for next week's buy in.

Jeff had homework but also had to do some tree trimming and other yardwork, since he was already in the garage, wearing dirty clothes, and needed a shower from last night he began with the yard. His new build had its advantages and disadvantages. Sawing and clipping branches was much easier, he could feel his pectorals flex as he went after branches and twigs. On the other hand climbing trees to get to the branches was much more difficult, so was bending over to grab the branches on the ground, and he could feel the soft earth give a little with each step as he dragged branches to the small burn pit out back.

Having worked up a sweat Jeff paused for a minute noticing his dad stepping onto the back patio. Mike pulled out his phone, and lit up a cigarette. Jeff felt a twinge of jealousy followed by a roller coaster of emotions. He doesn't want to smoke, smoking is disgusting! Could he already be building an addiction? Its only been 2 evenings over 8 days. He was catapulted to chain smoker on those days... but still!

Jeff had assumed what he did while acting as his dad would be transferred back to his dad at the end of the night but that didn't seem to be the case... Jeff had to accept that he does want to smoke, but he doesn't want to want to smoke. It was frustrating, and he needs to do something about this.

Jeff finished up outside and finally got his morning shower and change of clothes around 3pm. He examined his new body and realized that his peach fuzz was already beginning to grow out again. It wouldn't be so bad if there was actual dark hair to hide it, but simultaneously activating his entire facial hair area made a mat of glistening downy threads. He was torn about trying to give it back despite his current annoyance at the situation.

Jeff began his homework but became distracted by the Chronivac, reviewing his options and verifying that he really couldn't change himself or anyone else directly without 'collapsing' the pocket reality which he didn't want to do yet. He wanted to use his ability for something bigger, really make use of it before he shuts the experiment down.

As dinner was being set up he was asked to take out the trash. After dropping the bag into the garage bin, the smell from the party hit his nose and his hands were reaching in his pocket looking for cigarettes and a lighter. He was starting to realize how powerful habits and triggers can be.

Jeff got back to his homework after dinner, unintentionally mindful of the sliding glass door in the kitchen every time his dad would go outside or come back in. He looked up how long a nicotine addiction lasts and found that it would take a month to end the withdrawal and possibly longer to not have a passing desire! He read that it was even worse once habits and triggers are ingrained into his routine. So he began planning how he could set his dad up to take his addiction, binge drinking, and hosting responsibilities back.
