Deciding to test out exactly how the clothes swap would react to someone like Mega Man, you aimed the remote at him, and pressed the clothes swap button. You were admittedly a little anxious about doing this, knowing it could very easily leave you naked in public, even if reality would adapt to make it seem normal. As the swap suddenly took effect, it would seem your fears were well founded, as you felt a light breeze over your whole body.
Looking at Mega Man, it wasn't difficult to tell why. Mega Man was still walking through the hallway, now with your Zero Suit stretched over his mechanical body, your jet boots fitted over his boot-like feet. It was rather odd to see him wearing clothes like that, considering his body already looked like it had armour on in some places. Regardless, Mega Man continued walking as if nothing had changed, confirming the reality altering aspects of the remote.
Looking down at yourself, you confirmed your expectations. While Mega Man had received your clothes, he had also kept the armour-like parts of his body, and thus, had given you nothing in return. You were left completely naked, not a single article of clothing adorning your body. Even your hairtie had vanished, letting your hair fall loosely down your back. You shivered a little, having nothing to protect your body from the elements.
You were pleased to see that the remote did in fact work as advertised, but you were more than a little embarrassed to be standing around naked in the hallway. Even if reality had adjusted to make it normal for you to wear no clothes, that didn't stop your from feeling rather self-conscious about having your body on display for all to see. It also didn't help that you were currently part of a tournament, and if the remote's manual was to be believed, this swap would have given Mega Man all your weapons. It would probably be best to swap back with Mega Man. This had really just been a test of the remote's capabilities, after all. Now that you'd seen the remote in action, you could just swap back and try to figure out how the remote actually worked.
Averting your attention from your own body, you look back up at where Mega Man was, hoping to swap back with him. Unfortunately, it seemed to had spent a little too long lost in thought, as Mega Man was nowhere to be seen. The hallway was empty, besides you. Mega Man must have left to go where he had been headed before you swapped with him, unknowingly taking your clothes with him. Where others might have panicked in this situation, you instead did you best to keep calm and think over your options. The tournament grounds weren't so large that you weren't able to navigate them, and Mega Man couldn't have gotten too far. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to find him, but if you headed off in the wrong direction, you'd be stuck wandering around naked for longer than necessary. On the other hand, the world considered this to be normal now, despite your embarrassment. Mega Man had your weapons, but you probably still had your tools, so you could still go back to your room and try to analyse how the remote actually worked, and then swap back with Mega Man the next time you saw him. If course, this would mean remaining naked until then, and the possibility of being stuck without clothes if you weren't careful during your examination and messed up something with the remote. Finally, you could use the remote again, but on someone else. Just because you didn't have clothes right now, that didn't mean you had to get your own clothes back immediately. You could find someone else to swap clothes with, and then decide whether to go searching for Mega Man or to examine the remote. Of course, this final option meant that the person you swapped with would wind up naked, and Mega Man would ultimately end up wearing that person's clothes. However, the world, save for yourself, would see it as normal, and the person left naked wouldn't be embarrassed about it like you currently were, so you didn't see that as such a big consequence.
