Jamal smiled. The only logical choice was the girl who always isolated herself. He was pretty sure no one would notice her absence. Jamal reached into his backpack and grabbed the first thing he felt: a mechanical pencil. Perfect. Jamal stepped over to Tam and said. "Hey there!"
Tam simply glanced at him and turned back to her book. "Okay, then." Jamal said, placing his hand on her shoulder and sighing.
"SCHWOOP!"
With a loud, though softer than last time, noise, both Tam and the pencil disappeared. In Jamal's hand lay a mechanical pencil, except it was Tam. Her new body had the normal shape of a led pencil: a rod. Tam's head was now the cap of the mechanical pencil, her face stretched into the cap's cone shape and her mouth the hole where the led exited from. Her chest and back were essentially a body pattern around the rod, her flat chest now nothing but a smooth surface. Instead of legs, Tam's thighs had been squished into a fleshy eraser with a barely noticable cleft, which Jamal assumed was her private area. Her lower legs were stretched into the clip attachment, now a fleshy-colored flat rod half the size of her torso.

"Wha id you oo oo ee?!" the Tam-cil yelled in a high-pitched shriek. Thinking quickly, Jamal pressed down on Tam-cil's eraser-shaped thighs, forcing a piece of led to pop out. "Hmmmm!" Tam-cil yelled, gagged by the led protruding from the inside of her body. After waiting to see if anyone had noticed Tam-cil's shriek (it seemed no one did), Jamal sat back down at his desk and began to mutter to himself. "Why did Tam-cil keep mobility and sentience? And does the fusion always look more similar to the object first touched? What would happen if-"
"What ya got there?" a feminine voice asked. Jamal looked up to see Gen! BRRRING! Suddenly, the bell rang, and class was dismissed. Hurriedly, Jamal whispered "If you REALLY want to see what it is, meet me after my next class:
