keeps_a_cool_head[Video]
[a wretched-sounding hacking is heard from down in one of the lower levels of the Barge. In the remnants of a broken lab works Scorpius, who is literally smoking from the head as his brain works to cook him alive. He's finding it difficult to stand now, and keeps coughing up some horrific yellow bile, spitting it near across the room at times. Burnt meat is the smell that permeates the dark workspace, as he bends over something and works with rigorous focus]
If I might have...
...a volunteer.
[Scorpius is affected, an inmate close to graduating, who has decided that the only way off this ship is by graduating. Volunteers may be subjected to imperfect mind-probing and brain liquification since he's working with substandard tools]

...A volunteer for a regenerative formula. Meant to allow us to heal quicker. I've tested it on myself, but I, unlike the majority of the Barge, am not human.

My..warden has decided not to replace my...
