Oh, thanks for asking about the method. It comes from an interview I heard on the radio a few months ago, about slaughtering pigs in the most humane way (that we know of) which used earmuffs with electrodes in them, the jolt of electricity is supposed to fry the brain stem and render them unconscious so the blood can be then drained -- I altered it to headphones, but still, same idea, because the father needs it to be relatively mark-free and quick. As to processing, I was thinking along the lines of plastination (google that one up) to convert the body into the final product, where fats are replaced with a flexible polymers. Oliver’s a smart kid, so while he doesn’t know the method, he sees through the BS that’s littered about him – I’ve got plans for him in other stories.
And definitely, thank you for reviewing!!!!!
