Wish Machine By Stanman63 Synopsis:When a man creates his own Genie, he finds that choosing reality can be fun. |
[-][+][-]
I have to admit it. I did it all to myself and now I do not know if I can reverse anything. But then again, I have never had as much fun as I am having now. It all started when I had finally completed the work upon my very own Wish Granting Machine. I had read all of those stories about Magic Lamps and I knew that I could build my own without any limit upon my wishing. Gathering together old transporter and star-drive components, I knew that I could create a device that could create most anything that I could think of and considering that it would do it all without using any reactors was a plus.
Finally I was ready and placing the helmet upon my head, I said "WATER."
What I found out was that I was not specific enough as a gallon of water drenched me. After I had dried of, I repeated my experiment, but this time, I said "Glass Of Water."
This time, a glass of water appeared in my right hand. I drank the water and found that it was good. Then I decided upon a real test.
Once again, I stood there wearing a helmet and said "Girl."
What happened was that I was turned into a girl. When I saw what was done, I tried to become myself again, but in trying to grant my wish, the machine burnt itself out. Luckily, when it turned me into a girl, it also changed my clothing and identity, now I look like a hot babe and all my friends remember me this way.

Well, I guess that I will have the chance to see who has more fun, a boy or a girl. I will try to build another wish machine, but then again, I might not.

Thanks Princess Chelsea, I have heard of it, but never read any of the stories.

I didn't put any dots in it, how did you know it was "M.A.U.?"

O.K. Princess...
I have seen references to the M.A.U. universe, but not read them. Oh well, I hope you enjoyed reading my story.

Any use of technology
to perform a physical transformation could be compared to the MAU universe stories, or to a malfunctioning transporter in the Star Trek universe. The differences between the MAU stories and Stanman's story are otherwise vast. The transformation in Stanman's is due to home-grown, human ingenuity while the MAU's transformations (and the Star Trek technology) are due to a deus ex machina, the happenstance arrival of an alien technology on our earthly shores. Both are interesting in their own way, but in general I find it a bit more interesting when humans are the intelligent, active creators - not passive, ignorant victims - in stories, whether the outcomes be good or bad.

life before Star Trek
There's a mainstream SF 'malfunctioning transporter' story that predates Star Trek, where a college professor swaps bodies with an actress, but the anthology it's in is still at my parents' home and I can't for the life of me remember the author's name. It was one of the stories that really got me into SF in my early teens :)
