Theme: Body-swapping Soulmates
(All of the conversations take place over a phone call)
B: “Oh my God, that’s my voice! Why do you have my voice!”
B: “So how the hell did this happen? Are we cursed or something?”
A: “Not exactly . . . See--uh, what if I were to tell you we were soulmates?”
B: “. . . Are you serious? . . . Oh God, you’re serious.”
B: “A butterfly tattoo, huh? . . . Really?”
A: “Don’t you judge me! You’re the one with a mom tattoo.”
B: “What’s so wrong with that? I love my mother, thank you very much!”
A: “And I happened to like butterflies once! When I was sixteen. And stupid.”
A: “This must be pretty weird for you, huh?”
B: “Well that’s the understatement of the year.”
A: “I would have warned you, but I didn’t exactly know who you were up until an hour ago.”
B: “Aw, gee, thanks. That makes me feel so much better.”
B: “So how long does this last? This isn’t permanent, is it?”
A: “Sadly, no. We’ll switch back within 24 hours.”
B: “Sadly? Are you actually happy we switched bodies?”
A: “No--I just really like your dog. Such a good boy!”
A: “You know, to be honest, you aren’t what I was expecting.”
B: “And what were you expecting?”
A: “Someone . . . taller.”
B: “I’m perfectly average height for my age, thank you very much!”
A: “So, uh--I think your mom is knocking on your door.”
B: “Shit. What are you gonna do?”
A: “I don’t know--I thought you’d know what to do!”
B: “You’re the one who knew this was going to happen! You’re telling me you didn’t have a contingency plan?!”
B: “You really need to clean your room.”
A: “Are you snooping around? Stop snooping around!”
B: “Well what else am I supposed to do?”
A: “Not violate my privacy!”
B: “I think any semblance of privacy went out the window the second we woke up in each other's bodies.”
A: “You seem to have some . . . interesting hobbies.”
B: “At least I’m not the one who collects dolls!”
A: “Action figures! They’re action figures.”
B: “God, this is weird.”
A: “Which part exactly?”
B: “Uh, all of the parts?!”
