The pair woke to the soft hissing of gas! Sitting upright, Jack saw the flickering lights on the wall. Looking further around, he guessed it was probably the victorian era.
The woman leaning over him was dressed in a tightly corseted dress. That gave her a spectularly thin waist. Despite her obvious pain, she was beaming delightedly.
"It worked!" she gasped excitedly.
A sad look crossing her face. "We knew this was a risk..." she offered comfortingly. Frowning Jack went to sit up, only to discover he too was wearing a corset, and a mortifyingly quick exploration confirmed she was a victorian woman, too!

"The portal closed behind us." Jill offered, their connection to the lab was gone. If there was to be any hope of returning, she'd need to recreate the experiment. They'd both need to work together.

Their research and progress on the machine was painfully slow. The victorian era was frustratingly slow, when either of them needed any device, or part to be manufactured. Jack had long since lost track of how many walks they'd taken in Hyde Park.
It was a relief to get out of the lab. But he felt himself becoming more used to using some womanly wiles. Jill however, seemed to find the frustrations were only increasing.
The pace of life did allow them both to appreciate their situations...
