I have a few things to discuss with everyone at large, so I believe the network will be the best avenue to approach this.
Firstly, my classes will be put on hold for a while - most likely only a week or two, barring any unforseen complications.
The reason for this is that I will be having spinal surgery done by Ekkehardt in a few days, so while I assume the recovery process will not be long - it never hurts to be thorough about such things.
Second, I would also like to extend an invitation to anyone who is curious to come and watch the procedure - I'm told that my condition is a bit...unusual, and I believe it could potentially be a fine learning experience for those interested.
And Third also ties into the procedure itself, as Ekkehardt will have to behead me in order for for him to have enough time to carry it out, as my death is the only thing that halts my regeneration for a bit. Though this sounds extreme, I am actually caught in a liminal state between life and death - A sort of odd undead, though I am still human enough to pass within general society. If this disturbs you, then I would suggest not attending.
Lastly, I wish to extend my well wishes towards the students and faculty for the new year, and hope that we can all strive towards excellence - both academically and personally.

[ Hah-hah, gross. ]
But if it's healed over, that's excellent. It'll be the medical equivalent of bean canes. Providing a frame for it to grow over as you suggest is simple enough, though it might make future injuries worse if you undergo similar trauma if your spine tries to grow around a distorted lattice. So please avoid further catastrophic spinal injuries or you may be reduced to a twisted mess.
[ Rex always considers the worst possible situations. Always. All the time. ]
As for inserting a transmitter, it'd involve a small addition to the base of your spine that would use nerves left over from vestigial muscles.
[ And it would almost certainly also be some sort of monitoring device for Rex to try and copy the regeneration stuff. Because he's Rex. ]

[It is funny to imagine, though!]
And yes, that seems like the best outcome for this situation. I suppose allowing that transmitter would be fine as well - though I suspect it's also a monitoring device?
[Because, well.
Moriarty's not dumb.]
no subject
Correct.
[ No point arguing. Though he's not gonna reveal just how good he is at gathering data and making things (people) out of it. ]
It will gather data on your regeneration and general health to ensure the process goes well.
no subject
[Yeah no, this is absolutely for other monitoring purposes, but he wants to see where the kid's going with this.]
Then I suppose I'll be 'seeing' you at the surgery?
