To most sentient beings, the concept of “reality” is widely believed to be a constant, unchanging force, defining the very rules and laws the universe must abide by. Up is up, blue is blue, water is wet, and so on. This belief is what provides most people with a sort of unspoken foundation for how the world worked, offering a comforting notion that these same rules could never be altered, changed, or rewritten.
However, those same people would be horrified to learn then that the fabric of reality is not so set in stone as they were first lead to believe, but a constant rippling force that could change at a moment’s whim, radically altering the way these rules became enforced. Though the vast majority would never know who or what had altered these rules, this same people would neither care not notice a change in their reality, going about their day with the same assurance that things were how they were supposed to be and had always been. In rare cases, individuals might experience a nagging feeling that something was amiss. Usually such changes are relatively minor anyway and go without being noticed even by those aware something has changed, but other times the effects of these “Ripples” can be far more pronounced.
On this day, one such Ripple passed over the planet Earth, though the effects of this ripple were only felt by a small group of people across the globe, most of which were barely aware that their very concept of reality had changed at all.
Take one Darcie Griffith, for instance. On this particular day, this smart woman was busy studying to pass the bar exam that would finally allow her to start practicing law. Darcie had spent years working her way through law school, with dreams of becoming an appointed judge one day.
As she scanned through her law textbook, she was unaware as a Ripple passed over her. It only lasted a fraction of a second, but by the time it was over Darcie and everything in her apartment had been changed. Not that Darcie was aware of any changes having taken place.
Now, the once aspiring lawyer giggled to herself as she sat on a playmat on the floor, doodling silly drawings with coloured markers onto pieces of paper on the floor. The v-neck sweater she had been wearing before had changed a plaid t-shirt, one that did nothing to hide the thick diaper that had replaced her panties and jeans.
Sitting up, Darcie glanced down at her diaper, seemingly deep in through for a moment before she picked up one of the markers and drew a line across her diaper with it. She giggled as she grabbed more of her markers and drew more coloured lines across her diaper. Now her plain old white diaper looked far more colourful, and not the slight shade of yellow on the front that gave away her little accident earlier.
Not that Darcie cared about things like that anymore, sticking one of the markers up her nose as she continued to doodle and draw. She was an artist afterall, and she wanted make sure she had plenty of pretty drawings to show her boyfriend when he came over later. He’d be so proud of her! Maybe he’d even bounce her up and down on his knee like he knew she liked!
And thus, another life had been altered by this Ripple as it continued to pass through the delicate fabric of reality, making even more changes in its wake.
