Challenge/Prompt: #85 - Pain
Original Fiction or Fanfiction: Original
Rating: PG

Summary: Funding allocations are unfair, really.

◘◘◘

The slap of the newspaper against the desk is loud in the small room, and his scoff equally so. Studies prove that removing a band aid slowly is indeed more painful than removing it quickly. The state of science in the modern day appals him. Over and over, millions of dollars are poured into plumped-up institutions of supposed education to better allow them to drone out conclusions so utterly banal it hurts.

Doctors and paramedics and survivalists quote every day the results of Nazi experiments.

They would, he feels, palming the knife again, do far better to fund his work.

Not only should they fund his work - while they're at it, they should get him to write the Cosmo hoooottt sex tips too. He can't possibly be worse than the usual contributors :P

(I liked this. I keep wanting to read it as fanfiction, though; probably the result of watching an unhealthy amount of Despicable Me.)
