Ooh! Congratulations! We don't need to go on a corpse hunt after all, probably!
[PROBABLY. He pats Vash's hand again.]
But I wonder how in the world it's possible for you to interact with the rest of us, in that case...? If we're memory data presumably stored somewhere, then why are you just here. [HELP. He asks this but it's clear he's not expecting an answer so much as pondering aloud.] Like the flesh wall or the Grinder, maybe?
You said that you were examining the trash chute before you fell down here... right?
[did i make this up? well,]
If Beans was able to send us items through that, then it can stand to reason that we are essentially in the trash. That would also reflect why it was such a mess when we all first arrived.
Though it is odd that trash is where the heart and memories are also stored.
It's possible that there is a connection... though it's only a theory. Do you know what the structure of the ship is like? The distance from that waste disposal point to this endpoint?
[he tilts his head]
Have you been injured here? Do you know if you are affected by the same healing that we are?
... I don't think there's a direct, direct path through the disposal to here because I do remember opening it up way before and it's really just a science trash can. Some of the garbage at the grinder is definitely not from the Eudora. Maybe there's some kind of connection, but I think there's no way it's a slip and slide.
If that is a way for you to get here, then it is a possible way out. Though if your composition is different from ours, that also makes me wonder how we're meant to retrieve you.
[but scien will hold his hand out for vash's non-prosthetic arm. cut time. paw please]
I'm going to bank on that! I'm sure it'll be fine and now I don't need to worry about my body, but the waste disposal does seem to be some kind of lead. We can keep it in mind.
[ He will offer his flesh hand. ]
Wait. I should tell Lucien to stop looking, right?
[Unless sweet Vash is just a normal lifey in this den of hell, in which case he'll just be stuck with regular slow healing. Shufflin off to go get some antiseptic and cotton wipes and a lil bandage with kitties on it.]
[Reaching out to touch the healed area where the injury used to be with some curiosity.]
You can borrow one of mine if you need to, too!
[All he had to do this week was let Gregor know a rat sent him a love letter probably... GOOD QUESTION, THOUGH!! FASCINATING.]
Oh, it's a bit like the flesh from the walls and other rooms too, then... Regenerative biomatter! Surely there's at least one of the mean, bite-y rats left from one of those tears in space.

I... Guess... I must have came here a different way?! If that's true?!

Hm. It's pretty impressive you survived the fall, if that's the case! But I guess it would make the most sense from the information we currently have.
no subject
Wouldn't my body be really injured if it's physical, though...? And I... Fell?

[They are in the operating theater, after all.]
no subject
[ ??? ]
I also try not to get hurt...?!
no subject
But there must be another way for you to be here and not dead or made of memory.
[scien will look around for a scalpel.]
We can give you a small papercut in a non-intrusive area to test if you're affected by the healing effect.
no subject
Is that alright, Monsieur Vash?
no subject
[ It's time for the cutting, I guess. ]
... Sure? If it's just a small cut...

no subject
[but scien will just make a light incision at the back of vash's hand. it's really no deeper than a papercut.]
Dahut, you said it takes five minutes for small injuries to heal? Prepare an antiseptic and bandage just in case.
no subject
Five to ten, yep! Not long at all!

... I do need to be very sneaky with HER-MES.
[ watches himself heal at the GY rate and looks at them like they will know what the answers are because he sure doesn't understand ]
no subject
[but also he watches vash heal more quickly and just
starts laughing what the hell is happening]
Oh? Interesting. So the healing might only partially have to do with memory. It could be that anything here might regenerate.
Should we try to cut a rat?

You can borrow one of mine if you need to, too!

We'll share our findings with you when we have them, First Callisto.
Congratulations on being corporeal.

Thank you very much for your cooperation, we appreciate it!
