FB3X Drabble Cascade #64 - Year

Title: In an Equal World (h/h, sci-fic)
Author: charisstoma
Word count: 100
Prompt: Year


“What year is this?”

There was shocked confusion from the man he asked. “1962. You okay?”

Uncertainly he nodded, continuing to look at the Grand Opening sign over the spanking new Walmart store.

‘Fuck. What am I supposed to do? They don’t sell The Pill now without a prescription or to men. Classic Time travel glitch, and I don’t have time for a quick forward jump."

He’d a date with Darwin to include recreational bed play sex. Since 2040 when people became biologically hermaphroditic, men could get pregnant.

“Damn it. Darwin tonight, is only supposed to be a test drive.”
