Gazing around the shelves, you spotted an item dead center on a small desk. It vaguely resembled a TV remote, solid silver with six buttons, three on each side. Deciding to test this one out you grabbed it and walked up to the register to check it out. The girl up front, maybe mid-20s, with a nose ring, black hair with purple streaks throughout, black makeup, and as she spoke, you noticed she had a split tongue.
"Oh I remember this one, it's... a head swapping remote." That name caught you by surprise, even though the store, specified in the magic and mystic arts, seemed a bit extreme. "Head swap remote? How exactly does it work?" you asked. Her lips were pursed as she tried to remember its inner workings, "Hmm, there's a manual or something in the back, give me a sec." She walked into the back of the store for a few minutes, before coming back with a neatly folded piece of paper, "Here you go, oh almost forgot, that'll be 75.99."
You paid up, deciding to forgo a bag and decided to walk out, unfolding the paper to figure out what each button did:
