So it's a Saturday morning and no one was home. It seems Zoe had gone out for the morning leaving no one for Jon to test the wish power on. This means that he'd have to either go outside or find some random strange to experiment on, which by itself sounds pretty fun, unless something goes wrong.

Or he'd have to find some other way of testing the wish. Jon figured that if he tried to test it on someone outside, he may run into problems, so it's easier to use the power on things he could keep track of, like family members, or close friends, or even enemies.

In this case, Jon decided he was going to try the wish power on something else. His wish was worded quite specifically on how it was meant to work, but not on whom. Jon went up to his room and looked at his bookshelf, he had a large number of magazines standing up on his bookshelf, and magazines contain photographs. Jon figured that technically the wish should work on a photograph just as well as it would on a real person, and the advantage of using a magazine over an actual person would be that he could always keep track of the magazine and switch back later.

He looked over his collection of magazines to find one that he particularly wanted to see if he could swap with. There was definitely a wide selection for him to choose from, he couldn't really find one in particular he was interested in however. Finally he gave up and just picked one

Jon figured that one of two things would happen if he swapped with a photo, either 1, he swaps with the "real" person that the photo represents, in which case every photo in existence of himself and the target will change. Or two, he would swap with only the instance of the person in that photo. He figured he'd find out when he runs a swap; a quick check on Google for the target's name would easily solve that problem once and for all. Although Jon using his powerful reasoning figured that if it was only swapping with the instance of a photo, then there would be no actual identity to swap with, meaning would Jon only swap his body and still retain his own identity to those around him, or would he end up being called by a fictional identity from a photo?

Well, there was only one way to find out.
