The Seven Year Retrospective #14 - Ending the Show (Patreon)
Content
Welcome back to the Seven Year Retrospective Top Twenty! Apologies that this entry didn't get posted on Friday as expected, in the busy-ness of my working week I didn't realize I hadn't queued it up. Hopefully you weren't kept waiting too anxiously!
This entry is a story that was originally posted on my tumblr blog and has since been exported to my personal site. It features the showrunner of Teen Wolf ending his time on the show by switching bodies with one of his younger cast members. "Ending the Show" isn't exactly one of my more groundbreaking stories, even as far as bodyswap tales go, but I've always looked back at it fondly so it gets a nod on this list!
Now as far as Teen Wolf castmembers it's actually Cody Christian that I'm most attracted to (it probably helps that he plays a bad guy and villains are almost always the hotter characters!) but considering he's been the subject of my transformations quite a few times - and one will even end up higher on this list - I decided to go a different route and choose Cody's good friend Dylan Sprayberry, who hunked up quite considerably from his early days on the show where he was as twinky as could be! By the end of the show there was no doubting that he had become a man with a promising career ahead of him, so if I could notice that then so must the folks closer to him too!
The "tricking somebody into going along with a bodyswap in the promise of undoing it, while actually ensuring there's no way back" is pretty old hat in terms of bodyswap plotlines but why mess with a classic when it works so well? I think many of us would do the same if we were switched into a body that was only just blossoming into its prime and would also open so many doors for us. I'm not just speaking for me here, am I?
See you on Friday for #12!
