Stick with what you've got

As fascinating as the idea of being able to comprehend reality in ways no other person could, you didn't want to break your brain. Sharing two bodies was weird enough as it was! Although, you could get yourself back to a little bit of normalcy for now...

You and Ela both hurried over toward each other, as Zoe and Chloe watched. You had a sort of instinctive idea of how to move Ela beyond just human behaviors, as you realized once you started thinking about how to combine you bodies together, this knowledge of re-shaping into bodysuits, or turning into slime to enter a body, all came naturally to you. So strange... but you welcomed the ideas. The elastomer body stretched out and around, gripping around your human form, encasing it entirely--before sealing up, leaving only a single body in place, looking precisely like Ela. "There, that's... a little bit of a relief. I'm going to need to ease into all of this, even without extra nanites."

Zoe and Chloe nodded, wrapping their arms around you. "I hope you don't mind that we call you our daughter?" Zoe said. "After all, even with a human brain mostly in charge, you're integrated so deeply into Ela that we wouldn't care about that distinction."

You blushed a little, pressed against these beautiful women with your own form, which itself had the potential to rival their lovely figures. "I can get used to it," you said with a nod. "How close are we, biologically?"

"About ten percent of both of us," Chloe said. "The elastomer is a novel structure, it does things just like Zoe and I can do, but it behaves so uniquely that humans are likey more related to lizards than we are to your elastomer side."

Zoe ferried you and Chloe out of the observation room, so you could all go to lunch. "We'd like to change that, though. If we can stabilize the elastomer to not needing nanites or a second brain--creating a sibling for you, basically--then we next want to figure out how to convert ourselves into elastomer structures. Maybe humans could be converted as well, at which point you could exist truly combined as one being, if you wished."

"Oh, uh. You might want to look more like your human self, Ela." Interesting, Chloe wanted to call you by Ela's name rather than your own. They were really set on you assuming Ela's identity, it seemed--to be fair, being Ela was a far more interesting existence than a normal human. You nodded, and you almost instantly changed to look like your normal blonde human Emily-form. Weird, wearing a mask of yourself...

Being both the worn and the wearer in the case of this living bodysuit was a strange sensation. From the outside, it seemed like there was just one body--touch was relayed from the bodysuit exterior directly to your interior self, for example, and it happened instantaneously. But as a suit, you could also feel two separate shapes--and your 'inner' shape at times felt different, larger even, than your outer shape. Such as the fact that you were wearing clothes under the bodysuit made it seem like there is extra bulk on the inside, but on the outside things felt compressed down. You realized you could probably hold some pretty large things inside your sealed-up elastomer structure, if this was a pocket of 3D space that you controlled, and it stretched beyond the physical limits of your 'outside slice' as Zoe might describe it.

Once you worked through the oddities of your inside-outside self--and then pushed your badge you wore on your inner body to the outside so you could get through security checkpoints--you glanced back to the other doctors. "What about being like Ela would draw you to change your whole body composition?"

"Energy consumption, for one. We have a lot of things to explain about ourselves, but the big reason would be gaining independence from human hosts to draw energy from." Chloe tapped the keycard to the elevator to go to the ground floor. "I need to exist inside a body to absorb nutrients, Zoe must be worn by a host. Not all the time, of course, but we need a day or so every week to survive. I'm lucky, since my friend Amanda here lets me use her body. Zoe can be in a trickier spot, as she's sort of left to the whims of her wearer, but even if people go wild with her body, she seems fine with it."

"It's actually quite nice to let someone else take the helm," Zoe said. "Ela probably got a lot of that from me, which makes your bonding easier. But energy is just one part. Elastomers can regenerate hosts in theory, and show self-regenerative properties. Ela might essentially be immortal, so long as a part of her is able to self-repair, though too much damage might erase memories and knowledge. We're long-lived, but we've got a lot of work to do and doing it as living elastomer would be ideal."

"Plus, the abilities!" Chloe said, resting a hand on your shoulder. "You've just scratched the surface of what are essentially your superpowers. When you try more, you'll see why anyone would want to be you."

You rubbed the back of your neck. "This sounds great, but it's still a lot to take in. I'm going to need so much time to get used to it."

Zoe nodded. "We have plenty of time, and we're here for anything you need. We're your colleagues, your friend, your family, whatever you would like us to be." You bit your lip as you thought about what else you might add to the list, blushing a little at a particular thought that came up.

"What about... hypothetically, if I found you two really attractive and, y'know..."

Chloe and Zoe simultaneously giggled. "Thoughts about your own mothers, Ela?" Chloe giggled harder, patting you on the back as you turned toward the cafeteria outside the elevator. "That's a joke, by the way, the biology thing doesn't match up anyway. If you're interested in us, I can safely say we're interested in you in every aspect. And if that includes sharing your body, either by being around or inside you, or just experiments under the covers? I can guarantee we'll have a lot of fun."

You blushed harder. It was so easy for these two to just go along with anything with this casualness as if your request was as benign as asking to borrow a pen from them, it was almost maddening! But, you admitted, company would be nice in bed. You technically had two bodies you could do a lot with, and that was going to be the subject of many nights of experiments, but being in charge of both forms, even if you were able to do some fantastic roleplay with yourself, didn't leave many surprises for you after the novelty wore off. If it wore off...

You picked up a lot of food on your cafeteria tray--at least enough to feed two people. That was an accurate reflection of how you felt at least! A sandwich, a burger, a slice of pizza... it didn't seem like too much. Zoe and Chloe both grabbed some food as well, motioning you toward a table far from earshot of other Hideki employees. Chloe had a normal sized lunch, Zoe opted for just a fruit smoothie.

"Speaking of things we can do with you, there's something else we might try," Zoe said, between sips of her strawberry drink. "Elastomer bodies can process food as their energy source, if you don't mind we'd like to at some point try some combinations of our bodies with yours anyway. We'll make it fun, of course, but we need to know a few things."

You nodded a little, taking a bite of pizza. "Okay, like what?"

"Things like, if you're like how you are right now if we can still absorb the same amount of energy from you if we were combined with you. Or, could we absorb energy from only the elastomer part of you. Or... if we let you enter and mix your elastomer with us, essentially possessing our forms to do with as you wish, can we get sustainable energy from the elastomer combined with us via normal food or do we still have to be combined with a body? We have many questions like that."

You blinked, setting down your half-eaten pizza. "So... you would let me just take over your bodies, fully controlling you however I want, in the name of science?"

This time, it was Zoe and Chloe's turn to blush. Chloe glanced around, and then turned back to you. "I typically like taking control, but I'd give it up temporarily if it meant finding new ways to exist safely. So yes, you could do whatever you wanted with my slime."

"As a bodysuit, I already like being controlled, so you are free to do whatever you wished with me as well."

Things just got so much more interesting with that idea. Under your command was yourself and Ela, but you could put parts of Ela into Zoe and Chloe and they'd willingly allow you to take them over? That was an exciting possibility... beyond simply wearing them, you could extend your reach into more physical forms. If all connected through Ela, you felt you could manage it. The ideas rushed through your mind all of a sudden as you thought about what you might do with these three sexy, configurable women at your command...
