307: Hello. Is this on?
*pause*
307: What? Is the little red light on? What red light?
*pause*
307: No, that's a ladybug—oh, that red dot. Okay, it's on, and I've just made an a** out of myself on my first video entry. Oh well, might as well go on with the entry.
*adjusts camera*
307: I've begun an experiment with a sort of "biomechanical virus", you might call it. I won't go into specifics, but essentially, it lives and replicates inside your body, using it as a host so that it may reproduce and "live". In return, the host's body gains properties similar to the virus's; the hosts' bone structure will become significantly stronger, and above-average strength will also be received. A side effect from the virus is that the host's appearance becomes more mechanical, such as my appearance is beginning to change as a result of testing it on myself. However, this shouldn't harm the host at all. With any luck, the symbiotic relationship's worst will be that it is commensalistic, with the host neither being harmed or helped. And if worst comes to worst and it becomes parasitism, I've built in a failsafe in the viral cells that completely destroys all traces of the virus. I hope that I won't have to use it, because I will then have to completely recreate the virus... I had hoped to keep a sample in case of this situation, but due to time restraints I had no choice but to inject myself with all of it. More developments will be noted.
