As a thank you to all our wonderful fans, After 2 years of
thoughtful consideration and days of writing and editing, Eric and
I have published another and final part of the series.
You all had great ideas but since you can't please everyone, we
went with our own ideas. As it should be, of course.
you can find our epilogue to the Body Switched saga at
https://www.fictionpress.com/s/3224591/1/Body-Switched-The-Epilogue
(it said it may take several hours to get in the system there so
check again later if need be.)
There is a review section at the bottom of the page.
We hope you will like it. If not be kind!

"Absolutely the end!"
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This was pretty much my reaction after reading this "Absolutely the
end!"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn1w_9SqfwM
And by my reaction I just mean what Dr. Loomis is saying without
the little girl at the top of the stairs or anything else going on.
Just the emotions, haha. I kid I kid. But seriously I am saddened
to read those words.
But thank you guys for giving your readers an epilogue and a nice
cherry finish to the cake, I only wish there were some words
written from Jason and Jennifer's respective perspectives on how
their lives had turned out.
Oh and a side question how old would Jason and Jennifer be now?

The one thing that confuses me is that in an earlier chapter this
fictional dialogue occurred between Jason and Jennifer's father and
the government
"Meanwhile, downstairs in the basement laboratory, an overwhelmed
yet happy father was selling his mind-swapping invention to the CIA
for ten million dollars! Part of his agreement with the town people
was that he would get rid of the machine as soon as was feasible.
They didn't want anymore accidental mind swaps ever again.
"Remember, Sir, we have exclusive right to the invention. You
signed exclusivity contracts! No selling the technology to anyone
else or you can be arrested for treason!"
"Of course not! " he said indignantly. "I'm a man of my word!"
"The portable unit and the original model in the basement are your
only two units, correct? And you will undertake to build no more,
correct?"
The man did not see Jennifer and Jason's dad cross his fingers
under the table.""
But in this epilogue they are admitting to the gender psychologists
that he broke that agreement pretty much, wasn't that unwise on the
father and mother's part? And why did they need a gender
psychologist but not their kids Jason and Jennifer?
Also is it implied that someone older switched bodies with Lisa, as
she jumped some grades like the new Jason originally had planned
but changed his mind due to his popularity with classmates and the
chicks?
Otherwise I really love this idea of a Christmas card epilogue,
thanks Caleb and Eric for indulging your fans.
And though I'm sure the answer will be no as you said this was the
end, but I would love to see Christmas card written from both Jason
and Jennifer to their families also detailing us on their
perspectives in their new lives. Any chance you might consider
this, haha?
Otherwise good job guys!

Oh and I forgot to ask are Heather and Michael siblings, or
cousins, meaning are they both Jennifer's children or is one
Jennifer's child and one Jason's child?

it is about 10 yrs since the last story and Jennifer has 2 young
children so late 20's - early 30's would be likely.

someone lied to the government. (that never happens ;) He did cross
his fingers!
Why the shrinks? Because they wanted to be sure before committing
to living each others lives. It seemed a responsible grown up kind
of thing to do. The kids didn't need it as they bounced back well
after returning to the original bodies but we didn't say that the
kids did NOT see a psychologist at some point.
Nice idea about Lisa but no. she is just a genius like her dad.
Thanks to you both for the good thoughts!

Can either Caleb or Eric help clarify something for us readers...
It is said that
"At the end of Christmas day, one of Jennifer's young twin sons,
Michael, age 4, is playing in the basement of his grandfather's
house with his equally young niece Heather, five, who lived just
down the road."
Is Heather Jason or Jennifer's child? The confusion stems from the
fact that Jennifer only has two kids, both of which are twins so
they could not be a year apart in ages. But how could Heather be
Jason's child since Heather is older than Jennifer's son Michael
and at the end of the story Jason had not yet had any kids but his
wife was expecting one? That really confused me, or is this
Christmases later and Jennifer has had more kids? If you could
clear that up for me that would be most appreciated.
Also did Jason and Jennifer stay permanently swapped as each other,
or have they switched back in these ten years?

the niece is either
A an error, I was thinking of one of the 2 children the former
father gave birth to as mentioned in the story, which would make
her his young aunt, or...
B one of Jason or Jennifer's spouses much younger sibling.
your choice ;)
Did Jason and Jennifer stay permanently swapped?
The father did not know of the swap.
He swapped back everyone he knew of who swapped.
They could have secretly swapped back, of course.
Or chosen not to.
I think we will continue to leave it to the imaginations of each of
our wonderful readers to decide their fate as it pleases them.

I would like to know if the new Jason or Jennifer will feel more
than just an uncle or aunt to their original body's children (now
their nieces or nephews), sort of like a second mother or father,
since it was the body they spent their youths in, and the body they
were born in, I wonder if they will feel almost like that child is
theirs. Like does the new Jason look at Jennifer's children as kind
of his own since that body was once his, and if they had never
switched bodies in the first place those would be his kids...
although maybe they would have a different father as who knows if
the old Jennifer would have ever dated Richie or even married him
for that matter but instead married another dude and had kids with
him. Any input from the authors on this thought?

as a guess, they would probably be very close to each other's
children.
But if you choose a new body and identity, you give away a part of
your former life.
so their future children would be closer than their future niece or
nephew, if only because they would not raise the children of their
sibling. Much like an adopted child can be loved as much as the
child of your (current) flesh and blood if you have raised them
both.
but who knows, their kids might be 'real monsters sometimes' and
they might prefer a visiting well behaved niece/nephew more ;)..

Now my thoughts, ( I have nOT discussed this with Caleb) is that
eventually Jennifer & Jason would driff a little apart. Jennifer
thinking that her BROTHER was a little crude & lacking in
refimnment and Jason thinking that Jennifer was too lady like &
didn't appreciate sports and beer parties & power tools.

certainly a possibility, eric! Maybe they got along better with
their siblings eventual spouses than their actual sibling. Family
get-togethers are probably a bit strained when they all get
together ;)

You mean even though those bodies and personalities are originally
their own before they switched bodies? I mean how can you hate a
body or personality that used to encompass your entire being? Just
curious to ask... :)

@ Eric
You all are being a horrible teas talking about the possibilities,
like your mention of the new Jason enjoying beer and power tools
but the new Jennifer disliking it, even though oddly she would have
probably enjoyed such activities had they never switched.

Do the new Jennifer and Jason today, now in this epilogue, ever
miss their old bodies and lives, or ever miss being attracted to
the other sex?
|
|
From: Eric
, 114 months, post #17 |
Maybe a little when things are not going very well - like maybe
during childbirth, or after agruments with their spoues, or kidney
stones ( men have them more than w omen)
As for miss being attracted to the opposite sex - for me -
definately NOT. Probably they over compensate to prove that theu
really are a mam or a woman.

So I'm guessing you guys are having Jason and Jennifer swapped
forever, with no switching back to their original bodies?
|

From: Eric

yep! They now are more comfortable in their new bodies then they
were before, besides who wants to admit they made a mmistake?

assuming it is a mistake of course.
The father swapped the whole town back. J & J had plenty of notice
and opportunity back then if they wanted to change back, but they
really enjoyed their new bodies and the new loves that went with
those bodies more than their former bodies and lives as mentioned
in the epilogue. So why change back what obviously worked for them
so well?
Plus they probably would know about the bodyswapping the parents do
on the side with the patients sent from the psychologists in ,
