"Pumpkin Cravings"from Homestuck Vol. 5
Doctor Steinman sat alone in the Medical Pavillion, bored out of his mind, or what was left of it. There were no new Splicers around to 'operate' on, so he spent his time kicked back in his favorite chair by his desk, talking to Aphrodite (who was not real, but still, she was good company).
"What do you think of my latest creation?" he asked her, gesturing towards the surgery foyer.
"Very well done." Aphrodite answered, her voice breathy and sweet in his ears. "I like how you switched the location of the ears and the nose. Clever."
"The symmetry bothered me. I know it irritates you equally." the doctor replied. "I thought the eye on the forehead was a good touch, too. Not to be arrogant, milady."
"Not at all, Johnathan." said the goddess. "But I think there is a new subject approaching..."
Sure enough, Steinman looked up to see that indeed, there was a new splicer coming in. Something new to play with!
