[ Sometimes, you come from two very similar backstories but veer in entirely different directions... ]
Hey, it's gotta be a consensual thing. There's no joy in it for me if they aren't getting as much out of it as I am, y'know?
[ Weird thing to say about human experimentation, but anyway. ]
I get it. Eventually, it's just the new normal. [ Although... ] From one guy who's been under the knife to another, feel free to hit me up if anything acts up. I'm pretty experienced in pulling things back into place as I am pulling them out...
[Weird, yeah, but anyone from the City has always heard weirder. Gregor wouldn't be surprised if some of the people he's met who have used themselves in their own experiments were secretly into it too.
The offer gives him pause. It was awkward enough having his arm examined during his checkup back home, but...]
It did act up recently, which it hadn't done in a while until I got here. I chalked it up to whatever the hell was going on with the moon during that camping trip, but I dunno.
[ Maybe it's a bit callous of him to use this offer as an opportunity to actually get his hands on that thing personally, but isn't it a win-win scenario? He gets what he wants, and he's helping; nobody loses.
He may not like text communication, but at least it means nobody can see the excitement that tinges his face. ]
I almost want to ask for details, but I suppose that's a little better face-to-face.
I don't have as much equipment as I'd like right now if I'm going to be being honest, but the infirmary lets you rent rooms for personal use. Not what they have in mind for that sort of thing, but I could do a cursory examination at the very least.
[ And he can always borrow Aak's stuff. The guy will probably get jazzed enough from the subject he won't mind. ]
Really? I admire the dedication in appealing to just about anything, personally!
[ Because of course he would.
A more serious note- ]
Shall I make a call, then? I've got the chips, so it's no problem. [ And he's already got SOME supplies. ] I'm free just about anytime, so just say the word.

...Family business... Why do the similarities just keep stacking up? He almost wants to ask, but he doesn't think he could stomach it right now.]
Huh.
Can't say I get it, but I can appreciate the level of consideration you're putting toward those you bring into it.
I've had this arm longer than I HAVEN'T had it, but I dunno. I've never wanted to think about how it works too closely.

It couldn't hurt to be sure.

They do? That's kind of weird, actually.
[But then he thinks about how people probably do doctor roleplay in them and closes his eyes. Of course.]
But it works for me.
