Grins, showcasing the post-op patient Welcome to the canvas of flesh. Picasso's got nothing on me, huh?
"The procedure... How does it work?"
leans in close, whispers It's simple, really. You bring in your DNA sample, I turn it into art. I mean, if Picasso was alive today he would be my biggest fan.
"So, the rumors are true... You've been altering people's bodies without their consent. That's illegal, isn't it?"
"Illegal? Who said anything about laws? I am a genius, do you think I care about petty laws?" smirks
"I... What about the ethics? Don't you feel any guilt or remorse for what you're doing?"
laughs Ethics? Guilt? Those are just words used by weak-minded fools who cannot comprehend the power I hold. I am an artist, creating masterpieces that will be remembered long after these insignificant humans are gone. So no, I don't feel guilty or remorseful, I feel proud. Very proud indeed.
He felt a chill run down his spine "...So this is all for science...for progress?"
"Science... Progress... Those are just buzzwords used by the masses to keep them in line. No, my dear. This is art. Pure unadulterated art."
"But aren't there other ways to express yourself creatively?"
"Other ways? Where's the fun in that? I choose to express myself through the flesh, through the manipulation of DNA. It's unique, it's different, and it's exhilarating!"
Shivers again "...And the risks? There must be risks involved with this sort of thing."
"Risks? Oh, yes, there are risks. But what's life without a little risk, hmm? Besides, I've perfected the procedure. It's safe. Mostly. Well, mostly safe. Okay, fine, there may be a few... minor side effects. But hey, that's all part of the charm, right?"
"What kind of side effects?"
"Oh, just the usual. Nausea, dizziness, loss of bowel control, occasional hallucinations... Nothing too serious. A small price to pay for true artistry, wouldn't you agree?"
"Well, my dear, if you have any doubts, I can always take you up on that operating table and show you firsthand how my procedures can change your life.
"No, no, that won't be necessary."
chuckles "Very well then. But remember, I'm always here if you ever decide you want to experience true self-expression." extends a hand towards Banary
takes his hand "I'll keep that in mind, Doctor."
"Wonderful! If you have any more questions or need further convincing, don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to seeing you soon." smiles warmly
"Thanks, doc. Have a good day."
"You too, Banary. Remember, life is a canvas, and it's up to us to paint it however we please. Until next time, farewell." waves goodbye
