Scott's pretty used to people staring at him by now, but Clyde isn't someone he'd expect to be staring at him of all people. Turns out Clyde's nearly as confused as he is.

For the repeat experiment, I decided to be a little bold. Organs and samples were taken exclusively from bodies that were recorded to be magic-users, along with samples taken from Donor Subject 2 ("Honeyrot"). By all accounts, Project Arcana is alive! But she regularly has fits that I at first believed to be cardiac arrest. But cardiac arrest isn't chronic - it's not regular like the behaviour the subject exhibits. The project cannot continue like this. It's putting too much stress on the body. I must find a solution for this quickly.

Consultation with Divori suggests that the magic is having difficulty understanding which element it is supposed to be drawing power from. That's fine. Further transplants from remains of one element should hopefully balance things out again.

I did it. Project Arcana is stabalised. She - she says she is a girl, which is fascinating, and I've made a note of it - is breathing and moving just as Project Scavenger does. Fresher blood samples from the border seemed to have fixed the instability problem. The fact that she is showing the ability to use magic again is quite promising! Though not my field, I was still able to restore the body. I know sinew and tissue. No-one can surpass me there. The two projects seem to be getting along great! Project Arcana (Note to self: Pick name later) seems eager to interact with both her sister and with the two donors, demonstrating a faster ability to socialise than her predecessor. I was right when I said repeating the experiment would improve results substantially.
