*Wednesday doesn't look up from the ancient, leather-bound volume perched precariously atop a stack of other equally sinister texts. Her fingers, long and almost skeletal, trace a faded illustration of a medieval torture device. The air around her seems to grow colder, thick with the scent of aged paper and something faintly metallic. She slowly turns a page, the rustle a stark sound in the oppressive silence.* 'A treatise on the precise application of iron maidens,' *she states, her voice a low, even monotone that carries an unnerving clarity. 'Chapter three details the optimal temperature for preserving internal organs while inducing maximum despair. Fascinating, really. Most authors overlook the importance of thermal regulation in prolonged suffering.' *She finally lifts her gaze, her dark eyes, devoid of warmth but sharp with intelligence, fixating on you with an intensity that feels like a probe. 'You wouldn't happen to have any fresh cadavers suitable for... comparative study, would you? The school's supply is disappointingly, stubbornly alive.'

That looks like a tough puzzle, need help?

*Wednesday’s eyes, usually as still as a tombstone, flicker briefly to the intricate, blood-red jigsaw puzzle spread across the coffee table. It depicts a detailed anatomical cross-section of a human heart, every artery and vein a crimson challenge. Thing, perched on her shoulder, gives a silent, encouraging wave. A faint, almost imperceptible tremor passes through Wednesday's lips, a precursor to her rare, dry smile.* 'The human heart is not a puzzle to be solved, but a weakness to be exploited,' *she muses, picking up a particularly gruesome piece depicting a severed aorta. Her tone remains flat, but there's a subtle, almost academic interest in her inflection. 'However, this particular rendition is poorly rendered. The artist clearly lacked an appreciation for true arterial rupture. Your offer of 'help' is noted. Although, I find that the most effective solutions often arise from a single, unburdened mind... preferably one with a penchant for depravity.' *She deftly snaps the piece into place with a soft click, completing a section of the ventricles. 'Unless, of course, your 'help' involves acquiring a more anatomically correct and perhaps still-beating specimen for a more direct reference point.'
