Ideas...too tempting to resist. Even he agrees.

[ribs_grow_back]

Oh ja, Mundane, I do agree. Entirely, in fact. Zhis little plan of yours sounds like such fun. And to zhink, I vas a bit worried I vould not be able to continue mein...

[A pause, as he strokes his chin, seeming to pull his thoughts together.]

Vell. Job seems a bit too...unenjoyable  a word, und I do so love vhat I do. Still, it vill haff to do for now. Yes?

[Yeah, he's still grinning.]

Anyvay. I can't believe you vant me to be zhe doktor of a school. Can't say I am very fond of children...but I'm sure I can learn to like it. If anyzhing, zhier reactions will keep me entertained for quite some time. I plan on enjoying zhis.

Comments

[pocketsurgeon]

You are doing ... vat?

[ribs_grow_back]

I am going to become zhe doctor in a school.

[Enjoy that creepy grin.]

Isn't zhis zhe best idea? Just zhink of all zhe vunderbar zhings zhat could happen.

[pocketsurgeon]

For you oder for zem?

[ribs_grow_back]

Vell, for me definitely. Zhen again, who knows? Maybe zhey haff a masochist amongst zhem.

[pocketsurgeon]

I doubt you vill be so lucky.

Vy did somevon even approve you being around children ein ze first place?

[ribs_grow_back]

Surprises do happen every now und zhen, Herr BLU.

Who knows? But whoever zhis person is, I like zhe cut of zhier jib, so to speak.

[pocketsurgeon]

You vould. Aside from ze moral issues uf experimenting on children, vich I am sure you don't care about, zey are not a good example of human physiology. Vat you do to zhem you vouldn't be able to replicate ein an adult.

For ze most part anyvay.

[ribs_grow_back]

Ja, but people come in all shapes und sizes. Und whoever said I vouldn't need to know about a child's body? Nein, I vill. Especially if I am going to be vorking vizh zhem.

[pocketsurgeon]

Vell if you vivisect even von of zem I'm sure whoever ist ein charge vill probably haff you killed. Generally infanticide ist frowned upon.

[ribs_grow_back]

Murder in general is frowned upon, Herr BLU.

Und if I am killed? I vill just come back to life, so it is pointless.

[pocketsurgeon]

Assuming zhis place has a respawn system. Nicht all do.

[ribs_grow_back]

I do believe zhis one does. Und if not? Zhen I vill just be more careful.

[pocketsurgeon]

Ah. So zere are differences between ze places zen. I had wondered. Curious.

[ribs_grow_back]

Ja, it vould seem zhat way.

[pocketsurgeon]

Vell. Zhe best of luck to you zen. Keep me updated ja?

[Send him detailed notes on EVERYTHING]

[ribs_grow_back]

Oh don't vorry mein BLU counterpart, I vill. I zhink zhey even haff zhose talking animals you wanted to...get better acquainted vizh.

[pocketsurgeon]

[Oh now he's interested again.]

Do zey now? Now zis seems like a vorzhvile endeavour. I vant to know vy zey have cat ears und human ears at vonce. Vich ist ze functional pair? Zey cannot bozh vork at ze same time can zey?

[ribs_grow_back]

It ist possible, Herr BLU.

[Sinister smirk.]\

Ah, just zhink of vhat we can learn vizh zhese new specimens. So many questions about zhese new bodies...so many subjects.

[pocketsurgeon]

Ach, I vill not haff many ein zis place I am going. Ze respawn ist faulty so I cannot just cut apart people venever I wish.

[ribs_grow_back]

How nice it is to here you say zhat. Und for a while I zhought you und I vere so very different.

[pocketsurgeon]

Ve are.

[ribs_grow_back]

[PFFFFTT, enjoy that mad laughter, Herr BLU.]

Now, zhat ist rich! You clearly are in denial.

[pocketsurgeon]

Nein, I know exactly who I am. I zink you are ze von who ist ein denial.

[ribs_grow_back]

Don't be so foolish, Herr BLU. I know exactly vhat I am. I know you zhink I am crazy, maybe I am. But I acknowledge zhis fact. I give in to my curiosity of zhe human body und do not care about silly zhings like "morals" or "human decency".

You, on zhe ozzer hand, act as if you care. You sit zhere reading your little medical books as if you vere zhe most sane doktor in zhe vorld. Und yet...you vould take just about any humanoid animal you could get your hands on, und probably any human in general, und cut zhem up for your own reasons.

[He smiles that insane grin of his, blue eyes completely focused on BLU's own.]

However, vhat keeps you from doing all zhose zhings isn't a conscious. Nein, vhat keeps you zhe vay you are ist fear. If you could get away vizh taking apart a person oder humanoid you vould.

[pocketsurgeon]

You are right of course.

[Not flinching as he stares back.]

But "morals" und "decency"? Zey are merely constraints to ze experiment. If you don't respect ze constraints zen ze experiment ist meaningless. You learn nozzing of value if you do vatever you vant viz no regard for how it plays into ze bigger scheme of zings.

Of course I vould take somezing apart if I could, und ja even a human. Und I haff done so. But I am not going to kill somevon to achieve meine own ends.

Besides, zere ist alvays somevon else eager to kill. Unlike you, I can function vizein ze system und continue to pursue meine own goals. You do not haff goals, merely a bloodlust zat you pretend furzers your science. In ze end, it only furzers your insanity.
