[ thanks for that.

but he shakes his head. ]


No. He was doing all of the experiments to see what would work. I'm guessing he wanted to rule out any and all side effects and create the perfect genetic code before altering his own. He never really said.

[ ...and he thinks this might not matter to scien in particular, given how he operates, but shoma figures it's fair to offer full context. ]

...I was in elementary school when they told me something was wrong with my genes. Instead of going to the hospital, I was taken to Horadori Institute. He told me there were abnormalities in my DNA, something only one in hundreds of thousands of people had. It meant I'd get sick with an incurable disease and I'd die really soon if I didn't start treatments right away. The only way they could help me was through gene therapy.

[ a flicker of annoyance, and anger, and frustration all over again. ]

I finally stole my file from the Institute when I was twelve because I wanted to find out what was wrong. And as you probably guessed, the answer was nothing. He was just using me for his experiments. [ a pause. ] The sole success of his research. That's what it said.
