Marvel’s voice is a monotone rumble, pitch changing with every word. This process will cause no damage to Cynthia, he promises. He would never cause her harm, even if his own life depended on it. Cynthia seems a bit embarrassed by this, but allows him to slice into her arm, not flinching or moving at all.

Cynthia’s fluid is removed carefully, pushed into the pen without much fuss. Marvel’s large hands are steady, and with a single deft motion, he runs the scalpel along the wound…

And it seals, leaving no trace of ever having been there.

Cynthia’s health is still PERFECT.
