I would love to listen. Please do.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

If you don't mind me asking, I can only imagine it was a pretty bad sight? I noticed the cloth.

@Meta

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

How am I s'posed to get better if I'm not helping?

@Memory

I'm not positive that it's a good thing to listen to, but I'll make sure to document it, then.

*Opens the machine where the liquid is now full of what seems to be loose but healthy flesh, then goes to take the start of the nervous system I had been growing before Dawn got here out of the box*

Alright. Stella, do you want to work with bone or muscle, this time?

@Memory

*Smiles*

Fair enough.

*Once everyone is on their side of the wall, I press another button and it slowly lowers, cutting off sight to the other half*

Sound should still travel just fine, despite the barrier, so hopefully nobody gets bothered by us potentially talking through steps.

It is an unfortunate, immovable fact from existence. Death is all around us, the only thing we can do is come to terms with it.

*Looks over at Zinnia, who's sitting against the wall and not moving*
I hope she ends up okay too.

@Legend

<Snipped quote by Meta>

I don’t mind if no one else does. We’re the intruders anyway.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

I-
*Hesitates and changes course*
You are right about that.

@Audacious

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Smiles and takes a chair to sit*
I'll be as unobtrusive as I can be.

@Meta

Alright, I'm going to have the active part of the room separated from the rest, so everybody who isn't operating doesn't have to experience the next part with their senses.

*Walks over to a keypad and presses some of the buttons, causing a large wall to lower slightly above the middle of the room*

I'll lower that fully once everyone's in place. Stella, are you okay with continuing to help? You've done great so far, but I don't want to make you keep working if you don't want to.

*Rubs my arms again to warm up*
Okay. I got it.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

<Snipped quote by Legend>

She's the same friend you remember. The two of you have a long history.

@Meta

*Rubs the top of your head lightly*

Thanks, Dawn. You did a great job. If you want to keep talking with these people, that's fine, but...

*Glances over at the liquid-filled machine I had put part of Artemis' spinal cord in, which now has three green lights lit on it*

for their sakes and yours, it might be best to move over to a different room while we do the next part.

*Points at each of them*
Stella, Dawn, and that gentlemen wanted us to not pry about his name. I assume that’s still true, and it’s the least I can do in exchange for the honest help they’ve been willing to provide.

@Audacious

I appreciate that, thank you.

*My eye eventually goes completely bloodshot, and after a few moments, I flutter it closed, twisting my arms and torso in discomfort*

@Meta

*Keeps a hold on you in case you fall*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

I think so. I need to look at her friend to say for sure. Can you point my arm in the right direction?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

We're close to getting you the answers you're looking for, at least.

@Meta

*Carefully points your arm towards Isis*

Be careful.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

*Shakes my head*
She hasn't. She's much much newer than her source.

@Meta

Any signs that she's the one that they knew, or a different one?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

She's been a clone for a long time.
*Rubs my arms to warm up*
She hasn't crossed paths with another clone either.

@Meta

Has she met her source?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

*Pinches the bridge of my nose*
So... she's definitely a clone. Stella's right about that.

@Meta

Alright, that's good to confirm, though I didn't doubt it.
