Kate - Two in One
🕑 Added 2025-06-27 23:55:08 +0000 UTCThe city’s damp sidewalks glistened under the streetlights as I walked home, the glow of the comic book event still vivid in my mind. My feet ached in my heels, and I silently thanked my mutant stamina for enduring them all night. My loose, four-sleeved sweater—designed to hide my extra arms and breasts—contrasted sharply with my pleated miniskirt. The night air carried the scent of wet pavement and fast food. An ordinary night, I thought, savoring the cool breeze against my legs.
“You!” a man’s voice snapped.
I froze. A tall, sharp-faced young man stormed toward me, his eyes burning with fury. In his hand was a copy of my latest comic, And Then There Were Two—the one I’d written after my own harrowing experience with a second head.
“Can I help you?” I asked, swallowing hard. I scanned his face, trying to place him among the event’s attendees, but came up blank.
“This comic…” His voice wavered between anger and nervousness. “It’s about me, isn’t it? How did you even know?”
I tensed. “What? No, of course not. I don’t know you. It’s based on something else.”
“Something else?” he demanded. “Like what?”
“A personal experience, but—”
“I don’t believe you. You’re mocking me!” he shouted.
I stepped back, my four arms instinctively shielding me, torn between flight and fight. He kept ranting—until suddenly, his body locked up.
“Oh no…” he muttered, his eyes widening as if struggling against an invisible force.
Before I could react, his body began to change. His hips flared, straining his jeans as his backside rounded and swelled. His legs lengthened, his waist narrowed, and his muscles softened into smooth curves. His hair cascaded into dark waves, his face reshaping into a flawless oval with full lips and large, expressive eyes. His T-shirt stretched over newly formed breasts, and where the angry young man had stood, there was now a stunning, curvaceous woman. She offered me a tired but warm smile.
“Please forgive Ryan,” she said, her voice like velvet. “He’s been… paranoid since we’ve been sharing this body. It wasn’t always like this, but now that I’ve gained more control…” She sighed. “Let’s just say he hasn’t adjusted well.”
“What the—?” I stammered, too stunned to finish.
“I’m his sister. He never gave me a name, so I chose one: Nary. I decide when we transform, when we speak—everything. He can protest all he wants, but I’m in charge now.”
“Is this a mutation?” I breathed, amazed.
“A rare one. It manifested when Ryan was fourteen. Two minds, one body. We take turns, we argue…” She glanced at the comic in her hand. “He thought you were mocking him. But I read it and found it… beautiful. Personal. Real.” A smirk tugged at her lips. “Though I suppose I’d be the villain in your story.”
Before I could respond, Nary pressed a hand to her face. Her skin rippled like liquid, and in seconds, her features shifted back into Ryan’s—though the rest of her body remained undeniably feminine. She crossed her arms over her ample chest, tapping one foot impatiently.
“I’m sorry,” Ryan said, his voice calmer now, tinged with embarrassment. “I overreacted. Seeing something so close to my own life… it got to me.”
“It’s okay,” I said, still reeling. “Believe me, I understand losing control of your body.”
“So, you two just… switch?” I asked. “Can you change parts?”
Nary’s face reappeared, grinning. “Oh, yes. Watch.”
Her body split down the middle—the right side softened into feminine curves, while the left hardened into masculine angles, flat-chested and square-jawed. It was like staring at a living, breathing symmetry exercise.
“Now we’re fifty-fifty,” Nary said from her half of their shared mouth. “Equality.”
“Though we look like Baron Ashura like this,” Ryan added dryly.
“That’s… incredible,” I murmured, my pulse quickening. My artist’s mind was already sketching them.
Nary caught me staring. “Curious?” she purred.
“Well, yeah. I am an artist,” I admitted, flushing.
Ryan’s voice cut in, warm and apologetic. “Let me make it up to you. How about a drink? My treat.”
“And after,” Nary added with a wink, “maybe we could model for you. Give you ideas for your next comic.”
“Yes!” I blurted, grinning for the first time since this madness began. “I definitely need a drink to process this. And… I think I already have some ideas.”
They laughed—a stereo chuckle from two voices in one body.
And just like that, I found myself walking to the bar with my newest acquaintances, their absurd, perfect symmetry turning heads all the way.

I'd love to see the 50/50 split mutation

At first this one had me a little concerned but the more open nature towards the end soothed that over.
