...Ah. Okay. Given what else I've seen people talking in here, I have no idea why I made any assumptions at all. That was dumb.

It's no big deal. I think I'm kind of a unique case even for here.

I know how that goes. Though I'm not sure how freakish I am by this place's standards. Which is kind of a new one for me.

You're one of the mutant crew, right? I'm one of the dead guys.

Yeah, I'm a mutant with some uh, unusual circumstances, I guess you'd say.

...Dead guys? I'm not sure I've seen any other dead people around, but that's really not any stranger than mutants or alien gods.

Blushie's got a dead serial killer and a ghost kid chilling out in space with her. Then there's all the Soul Reapers that sometimes top in here to chat. They're ghostly samurai assholes who get to play afterlife police.

And then there's... me. I'm a little harder to explain.

...Wow, that's a lot of dead people.

Yeah, I'm uh. Part mutant, part lab experiment, basically.

That doesn't sound like it was a very pleasant beginning.

100% alchemy-created soulless monstrosity, over here. Or I was. Then I died, and now who even fuckin knows.

It wasn't. I wonder sometimes how much of my mutant abilities are from their experiments and how much are what I was going to have anyway. Maybe it's stupid now, but I'd like to now how much of my power-related problems I can pin on them.

I... huh. Well. I'd say continuing to exist after death kind of rules out literally being soulless. Though I'm not really familiar with the uh, more mystical stuff.

I don't think that's stupid. It's probably impossible to figure out, yeah. But not stupid.

I carried around a few thousand human souls even if I probably technically didn't have one of my own. That's good enough to get a ticket to the extra shitty afterlife, apparently, so I ain't gonna complain too hard. Like I said, it's tricky.

I... huh. Yeah, that's definitely beyond my understanding.

The important thing though is what you make of yourself, not where you come from.

that's like our motto around here tbh

tragic past central

well one of our mottos

the other is about touchin butts

Guess I'm in good company then.

greed: best-looking and most, uh, human of the homunculi

You are my favorite fyi.

awwww

we still need to find a way to let u visit btw

mb dr strange could be convinced to assist

He might, uh, have to do a lot more than just get me on a magic bus or whatever out there. I've kinda got some problems.

deet what kind of problems

Accidentally killing things kind of problems.

This sounds familiar.

This shit happens to you?

Well, making people sick moreso than killing them. Though that did happen once. I think. It's uh, more than a little fuzzy.

Would that also fuck with other Hollows? 'Cause most of them only do a little better around me than humans do.
