My insides...they were all different! It was only obvious when I ate someone, but I didn't have any human organs at all. My neck would get as wide as it had to be, to swallow a human....and then the acid inside dissolved them.
[A beat, as the elevator doors close.]
But, inside my head...that was different from me, too.
I kept thinking about how...cities, they were like -- infected wounds. Factories, that made things people needed -- they bothered me, more than usual.
It was like I could see the whole picture -- the way everything, eventually, fed on everything else -- and it meant that nothing in particular mattered. It'd just be eaten eventually.
[He grimaces.]
Plus, human men mistook me for a girl a lot, and weren't very nice....
