small 3rd person POV
It has been a while, simply the small experiments they were doing weren't enough anymore when an idea came to them, calling over the journalist quickly.

Y/N POV
Floofty was calling me over and as I went over I thought what they could want, maybe another bugsnax?
"Ah Y/N, you're here. I have need of your assistance again"  "well what is it floofty, got me on the edge of my seat here!" I smile, excited about what this experiment was. "Since my last discovery I've been testing the limits of bigsnax regeneration, unfortunately I've done all I can with this one leg. I want something rather more advanced" for a second I was curious before floofty said "put simply I'm going to remove my head". I felt my heart skip a beat, did I just hear that floofty wanted to cut off their own head? "C-come again?" I say, attempting to hide the Shakey tone in my voice "pardon me, I forgot your limitations. Remove, As in cut off. head, as in the thinky part and I'm reasonably certain that bugsnax will regrow it in it's entirety"  "look floofty I'm not stupid and this isn't safe, what if it doesn't work?!" I felt tears threaten to escape the corner of my eyes yet kept them at bay. "Indeed perhaps I could do something more measured if I had a full team, funding, and a great deal more subjects, but as usual nobody is volunteering" a strain a hope hit me, maybe I can convince atleast one person to help! "I-i can find more volunteers!" "Oh? very well, your welcome to try" I quickly ran off to go ask everyone
(Small time skip)
Still Y/Ns POV

I had finally asked the last grumpus, all the same but with their own ways 'No', yep....this was gonna happen, they knew floofty too well that they wouldn't back down from this experiment. Returning to floofty they gave the news that they couldn't find any volunteers "as expected, my name alone is enough to frighten them off" "dose that bother you?" I ask. "Hardly. It's not me they're truly afraid of, they give into cowardice and ignorance because they cannot fathom the tremendous good that my research can do. Since I have failed time and again to change their minds, the burden rests on me to complete my work, perhaps then they will understand it's value" I found myself get stuck on what floofty said, I cared about floofty a lot why couldn't they see that?
"As for you I require enough bugsnax to fully transform my body, only the sweetest and most filling will be acceptable" floofty stared at their clipboard writing something down "why is that?" "Consider it a personal request. This could be my last meal, after all" they laughed, I didn't. I was still stuck on what they said however, there wasn't anyway to convince them otherwise according to Snorpy so they decided to leave and go find more bugsnax for flooftys potential last meal

A/N
