Day 12 - Write a scene at a sushi bar
Heh. Didn't expect at all to have this idea. Another modern day fantasy. According to stereotype the fetish, trope, or whatever you want to call it, that comes up in this is common among fanfic written by teenage girls (female fanfic authors being mandatory by the fanfic stereotype legal code). Of course seeing as how this isn't fanfic, and I'm neither a teenager nor a girl...
I suspect the final question is probably pretty common too.
No foul language, nudity, or sex hidden below under the cut.
Title: Oops
"Mike what in the world am I eating?"
"You don't know? You picked the place."
"I hate sushi. But as soon as I saw the sign I had to have some."
"Some? You've had more than just some Daniel."
"Whatever. I know it's rice and raw fish. But what's the rest of-- Oh! Grab me another of those plates!"
"It's not raw fish Danny, that's sashimi. Sushi is vinegared rice mixed--"
"Ugh. Hate vinegar. I couldn't get any of this down the last time I was here, almost spewed over the bar."
"I'm trying to eat too, you know. Anyway, vinegared rice mixed with other stuff. Those first ones were rice and smoked salmon. The one you are eating right now has pickled veggies."
"Gross, hate pickles, can't believe I'm loving this. Stupid hormones."
"Hey, you'll remember I told you that spell was risky."
"The whole Danger, Danger Will Robinson song and dance. I remember. Grab me another of those seaweed wrapped ones."
"Actually it's a kind of algae."
"Whatever. The little parasite wants some more."
"I should have told you both no even after your wife started asking too."
"Yeah, yeah. I still can't believe you made us sign a waiver before helping."
"Body swapping spells are screwy, do you know how many lawsuits they've caused? Be glad you're only pregnant. Still, how the heck did it happen? I would have thought it would have transferred over to Linda once the spell finished."
"You're the Metaphysics grad student, Mike. How the heck should I know."
"You're right. That's not the important question."
"It isn't? Um, with that face it's not why I like sushi now either, is it?"
"You've changed back, right? All the normal bits and pieces down there, nothing extra?"
"Yeah... Oh!"
"Oh, indeed. How's that little guy in there coming out?"

The TL:DR answer - Magic, medicine, and whoa-boy is Daniel's insurance rate going to go up.
