The doctor could feel the stares of his experiment from the other side of the glass. Being able to splice two different people together like that was a medical marvel! Now it was locked up in the local hospital after escaping from the doctor’s lab. However, if the medical board ever got wind that he was the one responsible for it, he would probably lose his license.
Of course, he had taken precautions to ensure his work couldn’t be tracked. He removed both voice boxes to ensure the experiment couldn’t speak. The two halves of the brain were only loosely connected enough for survival and not well enough to tackle complex tasks like writing or sign language.
In fact, the doctor considered the way the experiment was pressing up against the task in a coordinated manner to be quite an accomplishment. Perhaps both sides were so aligned in their hatred of him that they were able to pull this off. But it could pull this off, it might still be a threat to him.
Luckily, he had been called in to study it -- the hospital not knowing it was his experiment, after all. And if the sides were showing signs of cooperation, he could easily cripple it...
