Smart. Clever. Prodigy. Words, words, words -- subtle variances require multiple words, same meaning. She had studied physics by seven. She read her brother's medical textbooks by ten. She was in college by thirteen

... Simon?

[medeafalls]

He gave up everything for a girl half-gone.

[justasystem]

So he cared about her?

[medeafalls]

He cared about who she was. His baby sister.

[sing_bluesilver]

Do you need anything?

[medeafalls]

Disease is on the inside. Too late for a vaccine, the body must fight or die.

[sing_bluesilver]

Vaccine's don't always work anyways. Trust the body and build from the soul.

[medeafalls]

Soul doesn't know where it stands anymore.

[i_themagician]

... They're not here, now.

[medeafalls]

They're always here, always looking. Two by two, hands of blue. They won't give up.

[i_themagician]

I don't even know what you mean by that.

Is there nothing I can do to help you?

[medeafalls]

Can't know until they find you, and then it's too late.

They played catch inside, and broke Mother's favorite vase. Porcelain doesn't mend: it just stays shattered.

[beast_unbound]

Loud in the head. I know of this. It's my natural state...perhaps.

How unfortunate it is for you, that you were taken into human science. They're so primitive, so foolish about it. They know nothing.

[medeafalls]

Hypothesis was the human mind, human brain was changeable like clay. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

[beast_unbound]

...They took you and tried to change your mind.

And what came of it, little girl?

[medeafalls]

Not a girl anymore. Something less. Something more.

[dirgingcerberus]

Sweet Gaia! You poor thing.

[medeafalls]

Didn't deserve it, but they tried to change her into something that did.

[dirgingcerberus]

did the succeed?

[medeafalls]

Tests are positive.
