The moment I found that shiny, neon-purple remote buried beneath the old lounge chair at the pool, I should have known something was off.
"Yo, Tommy, check this out!" I shouted over to my best friend, who was waiting in line at the snack bar.
"Huh? Man, what now?" he replied, slapping a hand onto his sunglasses. His red hair was already damp from an earlier swim.
I waved him over. "Look, I found this sick remote! But…it doesn’t have any buttons I recognize—no numbers, no power switch. Just that weird spiral symbol."
Tommy peered at it, unimpressed. "You found a TV remote at the pool? Congrats, Sherlock."
"No dude, I'm serious. Look!" I jabbed at the spiral button. A ping vibrated through the air like an invisible tremor, but nothing seemed to happen.
Tommy shrugged. "Maybe it’s for the pool lights."
"Doesn’t it feel weird though? I mean—"
Suddenly, my towel slipped. I fumbled to grab it, and the remote tumbled from my hands, landing on the concrete with a loud CRACK.
Red lightning zipped across the pool deck.
I froze. The air shimmered, and then—it was over. I picked up the remote, but it was split right down the middle. Nothing but a few purple lights blinking fitfully.
People were still chatting, playing, nothing seemed different—
Except, when I turned to Tommy, he was… well… not exactly Tommy anymore.
A tall, redheaded woman with killer curves and a rainbow floral bikini top was strutting toward me. She had a face like a swimsuit model and cleavage that could be seen from the snack stand. She plopped down next to me, her yellow bikini bottoms tight on her—his?—hips.
"Yo bro, you find that remote thingy work or what?" The voice was still Tommy’s—deep, cocky, just… coming from entirely the wrong body.
I swallowed, hard.
"Tommy… uh. Did you change… clothes?" I asked, probably too loudly.
He looked down at himself, shrugged, adjusted his straps. "Nah. Been my favorite bikini since, what, last summer in Miami? Why, are my tits falling out again or something?" He grabbed one cup and wiggled it, grinning.
My jaw dropped. Something was definitely, absolutely, apocalyptically wrong.
"Did you always have… those?" I asked, pointing—but, he just rolled his—her?—eyes.
"Always, man. You brain-fried from sunstroke or something?"
I blinked and scanned the rest of the pool—everyone looked different. Totally different. A hundred swapped bodies milling around, not a single person even blinking at it.
"Hang on!" I croaked. "Tommy! I… I gotta check something!" I pawed through his—her—beach bag, looking for ID.
"Bro, what the hell are you doing with my bag, man? You’re acting like a total creeper—dude, do I need to call pool security?"
I yanked out a driver’s license. In the picture, Tommy now smiled with the same busty body and face, chin resting on a hand in a flirty pose, bikini popping in the photo. The name still read ‘Tommy Wilson,’ but underneath: ‘Height: 5’9”, Weight: 145 lbs, Eyes: green, Hair: Red. Measurements: 40-26-38, Bra Size: 36DDD.’
I held it up. “This… this is your ID?”
She glanced at it, beamed. “Why wouldn’t it be? I mean, it’s an *awesome* photo. I look bangin’, right?” She bent forward, her cleavage eclipsing the license. "You on something, dude? Should I have Coach Johnston get you water?"
I gripped my head. “Okay… Okay. So, you’re… always like this? Always… like… this?”
She grinned, flexed a bicep. "Yeah, man. Always been a hot chick with killer arms. Why? You jealous or something?"
I croaked. "But… you're my bro! You're…"
She wagged a finger. "Still your bro. Not my fault you were born a twig."
The reality whirled in my mind: everyone here’s swapped. Nobody knows it. I’m the only one who remembers—only I can see the changes. A twinge of panic hit me.
The remote’s pieces flashed dimly in my palm. “Tommy, what if I told you that none of this is right? That you… all of you… used to look totally different?”
She cackled, slapping my back hard. "Man, you sound like you're off your meds. Look—take a picture, it'll last longer. Or maybe hit on someone your own league."
“I… can’t fix this,” I muttered, looking at the shattered remote, my hands shaking.
One fragment fell to the ground. Tommy caught it with reflexes unchanged, tossing it in the air. She cocked an eyebrow.
“What, your toy broke? Sucks, dude." She clapped her hands, bouncing, causing her bikini to strain in all directions. "Forget the remote. There’s a water volleyball match. Come on, man! Winning team gets a round of ice cream, loser cleans the floats. You in or out?"
I staggered. “But… but—all these people—Tommy, you—”
She just smiled, dazzling and oblivious, and sauntered off to the pool, untroubled. I could only stare.
"Insane," I whispered to nobody, as the world spun on without noticing, and my friend swaggered away, already heckling the other team from behind a wall of rainbow-colored floral-print and sun-drenched curves.
The worst part? I wasn’t sure I wanted to fix it anymore.

Prompt: write a story with lots of dialogue about When I found a reality remote I didn’t know what to do with it. The reality remote swaps peoples bodies but leaves them unaware of the changes it makes them think they've always had the body they now have. I could change the world in a matter of seconds. I was so excited to use it at the pool with my friend. Unfortunately, I dropped it and it shattered it swapped everyone but me and nobody notices the difference. I can’t seem to fix it. Now my friend is stuck in his redheaded MILF body wearing a rainbow colored Hawaiian flora bikini top showing off a ton on his new massive cleavage and yellow bikini bottoms showing off his cheeky backside and he doesn’t even think it’s wrong that he had the body of a woman even though he’s a guy. this reality remote is insane.
