Myrmidon's Room
Do I have time before the wedding? Also, presumably, to change into more casual wear and back again after. He wanted to tell people, but then he was given an invitation to a wedding described as 'today' and so he hasn't had time.

Myrmidon's Room
Do I have time before the wedding? Also, presumably, to change into more casual wear and back again after. He wanted to tell people, but then he was given an invitation to a wedding described as 'today' and so he hasn't had time.
Myrmidon's Room
She thought about it.
"Well, it's 11:30 now. The surgery will take up to 5 hours, most likely less, an the wedding is at 5. So you'd have at least 15 minutes to change."
Myrmidon's Room
How long has it just taken me to change? I wasn't measuring time. Well, I think I'd rather have- Oh wait, the fifteen minutes is each way. Yes, I think so. Could you help me take my jacket and shirt off, please? Myrmidon can do most of the rest himself.
Myrmidon's Room
ECT smiles, she had designed the face for Myrmidon herself!
She will help him out of his clothes quickly and into his other clothes if needed.
Myrmidon's Room
If Myrmidon knew that, he'd be glad that at least one woman he knows would find him attractive.
Unless, for some reason, ECT made Myrmidon's face look completely and utterly horrible.
Myrmidon will not stop ECT's help, although he does try to change his trousers again; he won't stop ECT if she asks to help with his trousers, but he won't ask for help with his trousers.
Myrmidon's Room
She doesn't insist on helping with the trousers. She does insist on helping him put on a normal shirt though.
Myrmidon's Room
Myrmidon will let her help him with the shirt willingly. He has difficulty with shirts, which is why he often goes for F-shirts that slide over the head rather than needing to be buttoned. So, then, to the operating theatre. Same one as last time, or a new one?
Myrmidon's Room -> Medical Bay
She nods and tries to lead him there.
Myrmidon's Room --> Medical Bay
Myrmidon's perfectly willing to follow Elena Clone 2. Will there be long to wait?
Medical Bay
She shook her head as Doctor Malpractice notices them!
"Ah, are you here for your facial reconstruction surgery?"
Meddy is... where Anele is.
Medical Bay
Yes, I am. May we begin? I am going to a wedding this afternoon. Myrmidon waves at the greeting before he writes.
Medical Bay
"Alright! Just lay down on the table and I will administer the sleeping gas."
Medical Bay
Putting his ever-present Mickey Mouse rucksack to one side, Myrmidon lies down on the table. He has no immunities to sleeping gas besides a third kidney to help filter the blood (I think I mentioned it) so falls asleep quite quickly.
The Mickey Mouse rucksack might be close to Elena Clone Two.
Medical Bay
Once Myrmidon was asleep, Doctor Malpractice got to work.
ECT looked down and saw Myrm's rucksack. It looked a bit ragged to her.
Maybe I should get it fixed up for him...... she thought.
She tries to pick it up.
I wonder what's in it......surely a peek wouldn't hurt?
She tries to peek into the rucksack.
Medical Bay- Operation
Opening the mouth will be hard; all the eyes are supplied with optic nerves, and to make more room the saliva glands have either been removed or just plain moved. There's also no tongue. He's got lots of teeth, though, but some of them are in the wrong places.
Medical Bay- Waiting Area
Inside the bag is a book; The Will of the Wanderer by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. It's from the Rec Room, and it's the first of a trilogy. There's also two tins of baked beans, a tin-opener, a spoon, and a crude-looking knife made from a steel shard with rags wrapped around one end to make a handle.
Medical Bay - Waiting Room
She smiled as she closed the bag. She didn't expect such simple things to be in the bag.

Medical Bay
More doctors are called in. They begin the tough procedure of removing all of the eyes and making it so his skull was what it should be, using a human skull as an example. They then put in the mouth and nose that they grew on a mouse using Myrmidon's DNA and take out two eyes with sky blue irises from a jar and put those in as well. They quickly re-align the throat and the breathing tubes into his new nose and mouth, respectively. They wiped the sweat off their brows and re-sterilize. They then go in to deepen the tone on the skin so all of the skin is the same color.
These are the most skilled doctors in Nexus, they truly know what they're doing.
They sigh as their work is finished and sit back. They somehow got it down in only 4 and a half hours, a true feat. They then begin to bring Myrmidon out of his sleep. His face will be rather a nice one. Fair skin, blue eyes and a shaved head(for now). They wouldn't be able to give him a voice or a nice head of hair yet though. That would take time.
All of this is attempted, of course.
Medical Bay- Operation
They're successful. Does he have a tongue and saliva glands?
Medical Bay- Waiting Room
It's stuff he needs for survival should Umbrella start doing something unpleasant to him and he runs away. He could actually do with some matches or a lighter so he can have fire on his own.
Medical Bay - Waiting Room
ECT took out her own lighter and put it inside of the bag. It had a picture of her on the side! When you used the lighter it heats up the sides and the picture changes to her wearing a bikini!:smallbiggrin:
It makes you wonder why does she have that lighter in the first place? Answer: She tried to sell lighters with herself on them, didn't turn out well.

Medical Bay
He does have saliva glands and a tongue. A further inspection of his face reveals that the ladies wouldn't be all over him, but those who do go after him wouldn't be in it just for his personality.
Oh, he also had his teeth fixed. Can't forget that.
"Myrmidon, wake up. The surgery was successful."
And ears. He should have ears as well now.
Medical Bay- Operating Theatre
He opens his new, blue eyes. His lips move, but he can't talk yet due to atrophied voice box. Realising this, he moves his lips slowly to enable lip-reading. He's asking for a mirror.
Medical Bay- Waiting Area
I'm sure Myrmidon will enjoy the lighter.
Medical Bay
Doctor Malpractice hands him a hand mirror, smiling.
ECT runs in with his rucksack!
"Yey! It worked!" she said a she placed the bag next to him.
Medical Bay
Myrmidon takes out the pad and pen from his bag; I'd forgotten about them when Elena Clone Two was looking in it. I like my face. He's practicing his smile. He needs more practice. I can't talk yet, though. I have a tongue. And now he's sticking his tongue out. So theoretically I can taste.
Medical Bay
"Yeah, the surgery would have been even riskier then it already was if they tried to give you a voice. You'll need to wait a few weeks to get one."
She admired his face!
"Once you get some hair you're going to get all of the girls......"
[Testing Room 1]
Meli looks quite kerfluffled by AJ's reaction and, upon close inspection of the water gun, snickers. Considering that even her snicker is soundless, she writes down her reply as usual.
"[That was silly, wasn't it?]"
Medical Bay
To be honest, I'd rather have just one. He smiles at Elena Clone Two, flashing it several tmes to get used to the muscles and feeling.
Medical Bay
"Really? Who? You can tell me! I won't tell anyone!"
She loved secrets. His smile didn't really clue her in on anything but she thought it was a good smile.
Medical Bay
Wouldn't you say that AJ is quite pretty? Not sure how she'd go for scars and mismatched limbs, though. Hopefully Elena Clone Two isn't too dissappointed.
Or am I misunderstanding?
Medical Bay
She nodded.
"Yeah she is!"
She is a bit disappointed that the guy that she just gave a handsome face to doesn't want to date her though.
Medical Bay
Oh, you're quite pretty too. I'm sure there's lots of suitors falling over their own feet to date you. Myrmidon had resigned himself to eternal bachelordom and has tried not to reveal any feelings to AJ so as to remain friends. I'm reasonably sure he'd be happy to date anybody, so long as they're female anyway.
Besides, Myrmidon never asked who designed his face and nobody's told him.
Medical Bay
ECT tries to hug him.
"Awww, thanks! You're pretty handsome yourself, I made sure of that!"
She didn't really get any suitors. They never really had what she was looking for.
