How we plinked away with our scalpels and toy morality. Yes, we could lop a boil here, and shave down a beak there, but... but could we really change anything? No. But ADAM gives us the means to do it... and Ryan [[TheUnfettered frees us from the phony ethics that held us back]]. Change your look, change your sex, change your race -- it's yours to change, nobody else's."'' |

5 | Alexei certainly does not. I catalogue its peculiarities: the [[LeanAndMean near-serpentine emaciation]], the facial markings, the distended earlobes, the [[CreepyLongFingers disproportionate fingers]], the [[CreepilyLongArms unnaturally elongated forearms]] and [[LongNeck neck]]. Even at this range, [[OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous I cannot determine its mortal gender]] or race. The countenance that hovers over me, while abstractly beautiful, is a thing of planes and angles: smooth, expressionless, vaguely reptilian. Any human resemblance is at best coincidence or convenience.\ |

7 | "Made myself? That is the point. We vampires -- we Tzimisce -- no longer dance at the whims of mitosis and mutation. We become whatever we need to be. We alone have [[{{Biomanipulation}} that option]]."\ |
8 | "Yes, but you can't just--"\ |
9 | "Indeed, I made myself, and so will you. And so does every butterfly that seek release from its lumpish pupa purgatory." |

12 | ->''"Listen, I can remake you. Those lips, that nose, the color of your eyes, the wrinkles and imperfections in your skin -- it's all malleable. It's all a canvas for [[MadScientist my science]], [[MadArtist my art]]. For a nominal fee, a token charge, you can let me sculpt your flesh, shape your bones, paint you with a brush dipped in blood and tissue. Anything you want changed, I can change! It's true -- everything except your sex. I can't do that... yet. But I am working on it. It's only a matter of time. Gender is an illusion, a thing of flesh and thought quickly altered through [[FictionalFieldOfScience paraplasticism]]."'' |
