"You changed something without me?" Adam stomped a foot indignantly, unaware of how cute the motion was coming from him.
Coral laughed, ducking into his cave-fort and motioning for him to follow. "Well, it IS my magical controller, dude. I can do whatever I like... and wait 'til I show you..."
Adam whined as he crawled inside "But I thought we were going to experiment with it together, Coral! You promised we could change me back or-or, you know, make me more muscular or something."
"And we WILL, buddy, but LOOK what I changed about myself!" Adam looked up as he settled in the cramped space only to glance away quickly - Coral was unbuttoning her jeans and pulling down her underwear, right in front of him!
"WHOA, SIS! What the hell are you doing!?" he covered his eyes, not wanting to see someone who had so recently been his younger sister stripping naked in his room. "Seriously, just... just tell me with words, Coral!" keeping his fingers clasped firmly over his tightly closed eyes, he could still hear the rustle of clothing as she shifted around.
"Well, for starters, I don't think my name is 'Coral' anymore, bro."
Adam couldn't help himself - he lowered his hands and opened his eyes, instantly rendered speechless by the sight of the pre-pubescent male anatomy on the body of his 10-year-old sister crouching before him.
"You... you're... You changed yourself into a BOY?!" he screeched, slapping a hand over his mouth a moment too late. They'd both frozen at his outburst, but didn't hear any footfalls mounting the stairs. The last thing they wanted was one of their parents coming up here and finding half-naked Coral... no, that wasn't right anymore... Adam's head felt funny as he searched for his sibling's new name. It was so strange, because memories of playing with his older brother were surfacing like bubbles in his mind, overlaying the old memories of a little sister that he KNEW to be the truth.
"I found some papers on my desk from the last school year - they each said 'CARL Waterson' at the top. I... I think that's my name now, Adam! I'm your big brother Carl!" a grin spread across her, no HIS face, and Adam was able to spot very subtle differences in the shape of his jaw and brows. His brother still had shoulder-length dark brown hair, but lots of boys were wearing their hair long these days.
He rubbed his brow, feeling overwhelmed by all the changes he was taking in while simultaneously off-put by the fact that it all also felt so completely NORMAL. "Okay. Alright. You're my older brother Carl and I'm a 5-year-old kid obsessed with dinosaurs, apparently. I feel like I'm going insane, but you know what? Let's roll with it. Right?" Carl was nodding as he slid his jeans back up and fastened them, smiling as he pulled the magical device from under the cushion where he'd tucked it.
"What do you want to change next, little bro?" Carl asked, his grin widening as he passed the controller to Adam.
