I've never had a Christmas like this before. Guess just celebrating it without my Dad makes it something new. So many people and so many colors. Home feels so dull now. At home parties were never so big or extravagant. And warm. How the hell did they do that with the fires? I could have used that over my window at home

You're sick?

[slavetogenetics]

It's a blood disease. I inherited it from my mom.

[catalytics]

What kind of disease is it? Not to be nosy, I kind of have a blood condition too, so I'm always curious about these things.

[slavetogenetics]

Don't really know the name, my dad's a doctor so he treated me. It's fatal if I don't take care of it. Is it...the same for you?

[catalytics]

No. Mine's the exact opposite. No matter what I do, nothing is fatal. I think my dad called it rapid cellular regeneration.

[slavetogenetics]

Nothing? So you're immortal or something?

[catalytics]

I'm not too sure how it works just yet. I'm still learning about it.

[slavetogenetics]

Like by seeing how many things can't kill you?

[catalytics]

Hey, you get it. Not too many people understand my experiments.

[slavetogenetics]

If I could heal from anything I know I'd be trying out anything I could. That's way more fun then my condition ever was.

[catalytics]

Maybe I could help with yours. Sometime, not right now. But maybe someday.

[slavetogenetics]

Really?? I've been living with it for 17 years, I can wait.
