Okay.

[And he'll hold on as hard as he can, so when they start pulling? He might pull a little back before it clocks on that he should probably not do that and just let them pull him or at least make him stretch.]

[waitingforplayer2]

[ There's resistance at first, but soon enough Don gets the idea, and Nanami's able to ooze backwards - stretching his arm in the process. ]

You're doing it! Look at you go! [ His arm is stretching farther, and farther... ]

[soft_shelled]

Yeah but this is just... Stretching? I don't see how it has to do with shapes.

[But letting Nanami stretch him is fine, they aren't hurting him at this time.]

[waitingforplayer2]

But that's all that shapeshifting is! It's... [ Don't get too into theory this time, Nanami - no matter how tempted they are. ]

If you just-- focus on doing, rather than shaping, you'll be all right. [ Nanami sets the console (with Donnie's hand attached) down on the floor. ] Wanna try bringing it back to you?

[soft_shelled]

Doing. [He doesn't get it, if she went into theory it would probably get his attention better than her current explanation.]

And sure... [He's pulling it back towards him now, his "face" scrunched up in concentration as recalling himself with the added weight is a lot tougher than it is normally.]

[waitingforplayer2]

[ She watches him retract, and slugs her way back across the room, following the hand as it goes - nodding along encouragingly. ]

You're getting it... [ Slowly but surely! ] The more you practice the better... it took me a few days to learn how to make shapes, when I first changed... it wasn't how I expected it to feel at all.

[ They pause in their oozing as they gather the right words to describe it. ] I guess I thought it would feel like... me like usual, but easier to change. But instead it really feels like... all of me is all of me. It still does.

[ It's kind of comfortable, though? Nanami's gotten used to the sense, even in their short time as a slime - it feels like second nature now. ]

[soft_shelled]

All of you is you.

[Donnie parrots back, still moving his limb to get the console closer to him. Honestly the explanation kind of helps? Although he finds being a slime so much different from being a manticore, human, or mutant turtle. Just the sense of seeing all over, which has overwhelmed him at first, and the whole holding a form? Makes it so he doesn't quite think as much as he usually does, his thoughts more focused on staying solid and not being freaked out by the whole senses thing.]

I... Don't expect to be an expert anytime soon, but... thanks for helping.
