"That's some fairly significant progress
to have made in your field! I'm impressed." He
admitted, thoroughly enamored by the notion of
such scientific advancement. Though the
mention of immortality would certainly breed
an intriguing conversation, he put a pin in
the thought and set it aside for later
discussion. His own vices alluded to the inner
workings of the body, compelling him to take
things apart and ascertain the process of
their function. As such, the subject that had
most effectively seized his attentions was...
"...however did you manage to program
his brain to adapt with the production of
feline cells? Did you need to alter the
chemical make-up of his DNA altogether?"
"I’m flattered–thank you! The advancements are mainly credible towards
the professor. He created me and taught me everything that I know.“ If it weren’t
for Naomitsu Madaraki, she wouldn’t be there today, and even though he was
always off elsewhere, she continued to make progress with what he had started
as he continued other projects. To have someone she could talk to about her
experiments and for them not to call her a monster or shy away was a pleasant
change. She was going to enjoy this as much as she could.
"The cat’s body was actually cloned from his own cellular make-up so the
structure was compatible for when I attached his head. It only took a few days
for the cloning process to finish for the entire body, much shorter than if I were
cloning his human body. To preserve the head, I removed parts of his brain,
keeping enough from the lobes so that he could still function and shortening
some of the organs so that he could continue to live. He was without speech
for a few days and could only sit perched on a pillow, and in that time I kept the
other parts of his brain alive and preserved so that I could rejoin them later.
I cloned a smaller body for him so that the minimum amount of time for any
irreversible damage would be greatly shortened. But when it came to attach
his head, it took to the new body as if it were his old one. Of course, I removed
the organs I had shorted from inside his head and replaced the parts of his
brain I removed. Some memories were lost, but he’s quite happy now. Even
has a human body that I cloned for him as well, but he prefers the feline form.”
