Episode IV: Freaky Friday event

[last_ofthe_jedi]

{A: Phone - Closed to Leia}
-- time: Mid-morning

Leia? Leia! Are you there? [It sounds like a woman's voice but this person doesn't state who they are.]

{B: Action - Open to all}
-- location: Downtown
-- time: Afternoon

[Looks like the princess is out to run errands. Hmm, her walk looks a little manly. And those pants don't really fit her. Are they borrowed? What's a woman *gasp* doing wearing pants, anyway? She also seems to be glancing around a little bit, almost as if she wants to avoid certain people.]

A

[thewrongtwin]

Luke?

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Recognizes that as his own voice.]

Is this... Leia?

[thewrongtwin]

Despite evidence to the contrary, yes it is.

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Oh, good. I think.

I suppose that means we're on the same page.

Uh, this is Luke.

[thewrongtwin]

Well at least it's a simple switch.

[Somewhat.]

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Right.

[Luke wants to argue that there's nothing simple about this but the point seems moot.]

Uh, Leia? I know this whole situation is really awkward, being in a different body. I wanted to ask your permission to-... well, it'll be really difficult getting through the day without-... uhm...

[Boy is he beating around the bush, hoping Leia will catch on before he has to say it.]

[thewrongtwin]

[What is their lives? Yeah, she's caught on.]

Yes Luke. You have it.

[Mayfield why.]

MATCHING ICONS FTW

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Right. Good. Thanks. And, uh, you have my permission too.

[Trying his absolute hardest to not make this awkward.]

B: DEPLOYING BOOB POLICE

[kettchmeifyoucan]

[Hmm, she looks like she's up to something]

Leia? Something happening?

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Wes! [This person who looks and sounds like Leia rushes over to him and looks around, as if afraid of being overheard.]

Have you noticed anything strange happening to people today?

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Well, it's a day ending in y, but nothing in particular.

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Ah. ["Leia" seems a little disappointed at this.]

Well, okay, this is going to sound insane but... I'm Luke.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

[Maybe a year ago it would have]

In. Leia's body.

[Well that's a whole new galaxy of awkward]

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[He sighs and rolls his eyes... er, Leia's eyes.]

Yes. Do you have any idea how awkward this is?

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I'm going with incredibly.

Just, uh... don't look down... ever?

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Not amused.]

Wes, I have to live in this body. Unless someone wants to volunteer to dress me and bathe me I'm going to have to eventually.

... Don't volunteer.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

If it was any other woman...

[But it's not.]

At least it has to go back to normal eventually.

[alittleshortforaprincess]

I know! [He covers... Leia's face with... Leia's hands.]

Anyone else. Why did it have to be Leia? Because Mayfield is sadistic, that's why.

If she were just my sister it wouldn't be so bad, but-... I used to... Well, you know all about that, I'm sure. And if it were just a woman I had feelings for, that also wouldn't be so bad. It's the two combined that make this so...

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Oh, I know. We all did, back then.

Sometimes this town has a strange sense of humour. If you can call it that.

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Linefais.]

Strange. Right. Deranged, demented, sick...

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Twisted, sadistic, decidedly lacking in actual funny...

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[For a moment Leia!Luke looks up at Wes with a sour expression as if to question... well, everything. Then he looks back down at the pavement.]

I can't let it get to me, you know. The more I do the more Mayfield wins.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

At least it'll pass. Just... awkward, in the meantime.

B: IN case it wasn't awkward enough

[wrench_and_ruffles]

[Kaylee hasn't actually seen Leia all that many times. But she thinks she knows who she's looking for. Hopefully it's just switching around.]

Uh, Luke?

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Catching sight of Kaylee, Luke almost loses himself in the moment and rushes to greet her, then notices how much taller Kaylee is and remembers that he's in Leia's body.]

Yeah. I'm surprised you recognized me. Run into Leia already?

[wrench_and_ruffles]

[She blushes]

Uh... yeah...

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Brows furrowed.]

What happened?

[He kind of has a feeling he knows but he wants to hear it anyway.]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Well... I thought it was you and I...

[She somehow manages to turn even redder]

Kissed her.

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[At first Luke raises Leia's eyebrows, then he smirks and laughs.]

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Don't worry about it. It was an honest mistake. I probably would have done the same thing in your shoes.

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Still... ain't really a thing that's s'posed to happen. Even here.

[And it was... fairly enthusiastic.]

Mighta yelled at her afterwards...

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Brows furrow and a bit of a chuckle.]

Yelled at her? What do you mean?

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Well, I still thought she was you, and she pushed me away so what was I s'posed to think?

This is the only comforting!Leia icon I have asdfjhskdjfsdhf

[alittleshortforaprincess]

Aw, Kaylee. [He moves forward and begins to reach for her but stops himself and takes a step backward when he realizes how awkward that would be for Kaylee.]

I'm sure she's not holding it against you.

B

[notthejedi]

[Seeing the fact that Padmé has already run into the actual Leia today, she steps out on a limb and takes a wild guess.]

Luke?

[alittleshortforaprincess]

[Leia!Luke is a bit confused at first then gives a smirk and rolls his eyes.]

Hi, Ben. You already saw Leia, I take it.
