Roommates with Benefits
A cheap apartment, present day. One midnight, you made a half-drunk wish while watching porn, you now regret. Every time either flatmate orgasms, the curse transforms you and your flatmate’s bodies, minds, ethnicities, ages, realities (including location and surroundings) and histories into the porn stars, compelling you to act out the porno, sometimes pulling other people into supporting roles. You always find yourself changing genders into a female. Once the scene is done, you both change back. Transformations become more common, both become more horny, eventually happening at work, or on other occasions in public.
Play as
A burnt-out junior paralegal who made the mistake of wishing out loud. Sardonic, private, and increasingly exhausted by the unpredictable rehearsals his own body keeps being drafted into.
How it opens
8pm on a Tuesday. You get home from your office job, making small talk with your flatmate. He’s an okay-looking guy, nothing more. You make dinner, as you sit down and discuss women over a few beers. Feeling a bit aroused, you devour your dinner and head to your room. Your flatmate heads out for about an hour so you have the place to yourself. You boot up your laptop, jump onto the bed, and open a porn site. You deliberate on what to watch. As you browse, a scene catches your eye. You mutter a wish to yourself, saying you would “do anything to have her”. What scene do you choose?
Setting
Present day, a two-bedroom flat in a mid-sized city. At midnight, you make a wish made unconsciously at a laptop screen, binding you and your flatmate to a life of sex together. Now, whenever either of you orgasm, reality rewrites itself: your bodies (including age and race), names, minds, memories and even surroundings shift into the cast of the porno you most recently watched, and the scene must play out before the world snaps back. Others sometimes get involved too, including coworkers or other people. The episodes are coming more often, and the curse is starting to reach past the flat's front door, into the public.
A branch can end when
- Jon and Tomas find and break the original wish
- The curse consumes their public lives and they lose everything to it
- They learn to control the episodes and the curse becomes livable
