"It would appear the modifications only transfer to your humanoid form. Could it be because that is the only shape that is a biological system? Can you change into an animal or plant?"

"Sure thing"
True to form, the potted plant Will turned into also showed no signs of vehicularization--Ashley could even tell it was a real plant, and not a wax one.

"This is very peculiar. It suggests your humanoid form is unique in some way."

Will, having shifted back to his person form, shook his head, a hydrollic squeaking sound coming.
"There's no reason for that, though!"

"Everything has a reason. We just don't know it yet. The parts are being affected by your shifting, so there should be no reason why you shouldn't be able to shift them away as far as I can tell, so it might be a software glitch."

"Or a psychological mechanism. Depending on how you want to look at it."

"That is not what I said at all. This could be a perfectly normal reaction as far as we know."

"Does this look normal to you!" he said, gesticulating wildly.

"My idea of what constitutes 'normal' is quite different from the usual definition. But that side, you're a poly-mimetic substance. This seems perfectly within the parameters of your capabilities."

"But I don't WANT to look like this. I'm not TRYING to," Will said, pacing back and forth. "And I can't STOP."

"That is, unfortunately, a reality that most people face. If it is too distressing I could attempt to remove the modifications."

"Ooh! Good idea!" Will said, slamming his fist into his palm.
The shifting was still accompanied by the sounds of grinding metal and....nope. The chrome and matte-green finish remained on Will's body, as she looked down in dismay.

"Hmm. Can you still turn into the previous version of the Humvee?"

"I can try," Will nodded, focusing, getting back on all fours.
And, yes--there was the old, standard, military-spec humvee.

"Well, that worked. And you reproduced the parts I took out, it seems." she says, bending down to look at the suspensions and brakes. "Which raises a whole other line of questions."

Yup, she could still do that, standing there with her hands on her hips and chrome still running up and down her body.

"It does appear to be an issue with your biological form, so that might be more appropriate." she agrees.

Will nodded. "Then, if you have nothing else for me..." he frowned, "...I'm gonna...go lie down. Or something."
