"Yes, you mentioned that before. The cutting him, bit. Tell me, what is it you can do?"
"I…" she trailed off, growing self-conscious for some reason. She realized she was being foolish, and powered on. "I can take the form of anything inanimate I have touched. My brother, Sheldon, can take the form of anything living."
"Your brother? How many grandchildren do I have? Cross-breeding can be dangerous, and there wasn't another generator in the world that I knew about." He stopped and grimaced before shaking his head. "Never mind. That's not important right now. You say you can take inanimate object forms, and you had an issue after cutting Marchosias. Was he in his wolf form when it happened?"
Shelly nodded, remembering the teeth biting down on her steel blade.
"I wonder how your talent would react to a living inanimate object… It might be what caused your issue, and allowed me into your Mens Mundi."
