Mary Sue Syndrome

[Backo]

The Doktor took a mental pause so long that he could see aerelm's annoyance from all the waiting. In fact if aerelm's brain could send messages directly to Joseph's, the messages would've been something along the lines of "RESPOND ALREADY" and "I NEED A BLOODY REPLY". Though luckily aerelm had yet not possessed such skills and Joseph's mind was free to think... about kittens and his brainwashed assistant.

Though all good things must come to an end and aerelm's growing impatience snapped the Doktor out of his happy thoughts. He cleared his throat, preparing for a long monologue. "Ah, an educated customer I see." his monologue though was rather short for work was supposed to be done and this mental pause he had felt like 3 weeks, even if it probably was no longer than 3 minutes. His eyes quickly pointed at his lovely assistant. "Alina, bring project SP4-RT4!" an order was quickly issued. The woman rushed out of the room and shortly after returned with a big metallic crate that looked rather heavy. "Excellent, thank you, dear, just put it on the medical table and unpack it!" the Doktor felt he should toy with his customer a bit more, after all comparing his enhancements to Freeport 11's garbage was an insult.

"So, mr Amerelm" he butchered the name as he did with many customers before this one, because the Doktor was simply bad at names. In fact Alina was not really his assistant's name, but do you expect a brainwashed drone to complain about something so minor? Anyways, we're drifting from the subject again - "What you see here is my latest project. Two cyborg arms - a spear and a shield, of course metaphorically speaking. You'd look way out of place if you walked around with a spear and a shield instead of hands. Come I'll show you what they actually do." Joseph stood up from his seat with a happy grin on his face, one you'd connect to a child about to see fireworks, and motioned aerelm to follow him to the operating table where two mechanical arms were put together like an exhibition.
