He was super smart, had this

He was always trying
to cure his humanness.
Rumor has it
that he built a secret lab
right here on campus.
Though, no one ever found it.
Did he ever figure it out,
how to be fully monster?
According to legend, yep.
Made a potion that could ixnay
his human side,
but he was kicked out of school
before he could take it.
It's probably still there
in his lab,
along with all
his other cool research.
Imagine finding it.
I love that you're so into this.
You know, he kept
meticulous lab journals.

- [Komos] Yep.
