Pretending to be scoping out the school ahead of a family move, A approaches and befriends Rhiannon. When A wakes up in the body of a girl named Amy Tan who lives an hour away from Rhiannon, A immediately drives to Rhiannon’s town. Over the next several days, A tries to devise ways to see Rhiannon again. A ends the day wishing it was possible to stay in Justin’s body. This change in tone disappoints Rhiannon, but she says she understands.

Knowing that Justin will regain his body the next day and resume treating Rhiannon poorly, A calls Rhiannon to remind her that every day cannot be like the one they just shared. When A returns back home at the end of the day, the fragile illusion of their happy time with Rhiannon dissipates. Over the course of the day, A begins to fall in love with Rhiannon, making the 24-hour limit on their time together ever more devastating. A’s loving and attentive behavior surprises Rhiannon, as she believes A to be the more typically disengaged Justin, but she is thrilled to see her “boyfriend” making more of an effort to connect. When A impulsively suggests they ditch school together, Rhiannon agrees and suggests they go to the beach.ĭuring their day together, A and Rhiannon converse deeply and form a strong emotional connection. Although A usually attempts to maintain a careful distance from the friends and loved ones of the hosts, A feels an inexplicable desire to get to know Rhiannon better. Through observing Rhiannon’s behavior and accessing Justin’s memories, A learns that Justin treats Rhiannon poorly, often making her feel small, anxious, and insecure. Soon, however, A meets Justin’s girlfriend, Rhiannon. The day begins normally, with A heading to school and attending Justin’s classes. When A wakes up in the body of a high school student named Justin, everything about A’s existence changes.

Additionally, since A never wakes up in the same body twice, A tries to maintain a healthy detachment from each person’s life. A has accepted this existence, choosing to fall asleep before the switch each night, so that it occurs peacefully. Even if A stays awake, A’s spirit involuntarily-and painfully-rips from the body it is inhabiting in order to move on to the next. Over the years, A has learned that it is impossible to prevent the switch to a new body at midnight each night. When A wakes up in a new body, they have access to that person’s memories, which helps them navigate the day. Comfortable living as both male and female, A is non-binary and does not exclusively identify with either gender. A has no control over the gender, race, location, or appearance of each body they occupy, but they do always wake up in the body of a person their age. A is a sixteen-year-old disembodied spirit who wakes up in the body of a different person each day.
