I’m officially calling The TGS Body Swap AU Broken Mirrors since it fits the identity crisis Jekyll and Hyde have.
If you have any ideas you think this AU should have, write in the comments or reblog what ideas you like this AU to have, like funny or angsty scenes, possible design ideas (like what the body swapped duo would wear) and possible interactions between Jekyll/Hyde with other characters.
This is a very fun AU idea.
I think the Glass Scientists body swap AU might be called Broken Mirrors, maybe representing Jekyll and Hyde no longer being in their bodies.
Here are things that happen in this AU:
The body swap happens after the Dracula story.
It was caused when Jekyll accidentally knocked an unidentified ingredient into the HJ7 without him looking. When he drank the contaminated potion, it destabilized the body, confusing it and now Jekyll is in Hyde’s body while Hyde is in Jekyll’s body.
They keep their eye color, raising suspicions.
They have a hard time being each other, Jekyll not used to the smaller body, having trouble with Hyde’s messy hair and having to hide his identity from the Lodgers, Hyde complains about Jekyll not having his agility, not used to being tall and sometimes likes to mess around as Jekyll. The two having to pretend to be each other.
When they first swapped, Jekyll panicked in his office while Hyde was a bit disappointed not having his own body but for him at least he is in control.
Their voices change to whoever is in control, so they did not do well in their impressions of each other (Like Shatter Me!) Jekyll clumsily making a bad impression of Hyde while Hyde gets back at him by making a exaggerated impression of Jekyll.
This AU has potential, feel free to give your own ideas of this body swap AU. Plus it’s so angsty and funny.
I saw the Glass Scientists chapter: Shatter Me!, i saw Jekyll and Hyde swapping bodies randomly due to unstable transformations, wished they had more moments like this, there is so much potential for a Body Swap AU where this happens earlier, so much humor and angst.
Imagine something wrong goes with the HJ7 and it messes them up, they retain their eye color like the chapter but they get stuck as each other even when they transform.
Imagine Jekyll not used to having long hair or Hyde liking being tall.
Maybe it happens after the Dracula bonus story (assuming its canon), possibly an unidentified ingredient accidentally falls on the HJ7 and when Jekyll drinks it, he feels a strange migraine while Hyde in the mindscape notices strange fluids flowing around, the unknown ingredient messed up the HJ7, when Jekyll passes out, he wakes up in Hyde’s body but when he tries to drink the potion to turn back, it results in Hyde in Jekyll’s body.
Since their eye color swaps with them due to them being essentially the same person, someone will notice something off. They probably don’t have colored contacts.
Remember how in chapter 15, Frankenstein not only noticed Jekyll (in Hyde’s body)’s red eyes but also his voice change, so that makes sense if their voices change too since again, they are essentially the same person, basically trying to imitate each other.
What do you mean that's the end of the chapter that was like the shortest chapter in the entire comic
i was just reading through The Glass Scientists and i just wanna say that hyde’s face is a whole mood all on its own
