Our little miss cardcaptor has a card that causes people to swap bodies, which in the anime was done with Kero and Shaoran. So, who wants to trade bodies? First on my list is Tomo and Koyomi, because ... well, there are a lot of reasons. But I'll get into those in the story.
What I want to ask about here is a little bit of brainstorming for a proper deconstruction: what is actually different about people's bodies? You know, besides the things that are covered in every body swap doujinshi? We have a bit of first-hand knowledge about this, because we all remember being shorter. But a lot of how we imagine others observe the world is based on how we see the world, because we only have first-hand knowledge of one person.
So what are some of the sort of things I could use in this story? So far I have:
Vision: Yomi's eyes will seem blurry to Tomo, and wearing the glasses will seem awkward at first. It's also possible one of them is colorblind or, conversely, a tetrachromat.
Taste: I've already mentioned the cilantro mutation in my stories, but about the undines.
Height: Always a classic. Big was a good movie.
Hair: Having long hair feels different. Takes longer to wash. Twintails feel bouncy.
Audio: Is Yomi's bad singing a product of her body, or a product of her brain?
Any other ideas I could work in here?
P.S. Also in my own experience, I have the soprano parts of Handel's Messiah memorized, but my body will no longer produce those notes. It's surprisingly frustrating. The tenor lines are nice, just not what I learned when I was a kid.
