pensnestReal world with added weirdness... you know, based in canon (they're popstars!) but with supernatural or otherwise inexplicable extras, like, magic is real, there are vampires in the audience, they have superpowers, they swapped bodies, etc.
Oh boy. It feels as though fully half of all the popslash stories ever written would qualify for this one. There's the one where Chris shrinks, and the sudden telepathy between Lance and Chris after a lightning strike, and the Lance/Justin bodyswap *fans self* and the JC/Britney bodyswap, and any number of 'wakes up as a girl' stories, and, and...
I'm going to go with something that won't immediately spring to mind, namely A Sheepish Kind of Love by Natalie. In which the people who fall in love with Chris... turn into sheep.
I also seem to have written a few of these... okay, Round Dance is my body-swap story, only I didn't want to write one in which two people swap with one another and exchanged information at once. I decided to write something in which four people swapped, but in a sort of pass-it-on exchange, and didn't realise they hadn't done a straightforward swap... There's not a lot of precedent for multiple body-hop-swap stories, and as I've written one, I know why. Inevitably, it turned into Trickyfish. Oh, what the heck—also Horny, which features a unicorn.
