Curtis Connors’ life is good, actually. A few adaptive devices and life would be great.
But nooo, his parents couldn’t let him “suffer” like that. No, they had to sign him up for some stupid lab trial. Great.
The other kids were at least getting paid to be there.
His parent’s only tried to explain the whole thing once. Something about how lizards grow their arms back, which is stupid because the only vertebrate capple of regenerating lost limbs is the axolotl.
The doctors involved weren’t much better about clarity, but they at least gave him a bit more insight into the whole, talking about how deers and sharks harness cancer. They assured him they weren't giving him cancer but like. Ominous. Not a fan of that.
There’s no way this ends well, but at least it probably won’t do anything at all...
