Riddle me this. What would you do to achieve your ideal self?

[Private to OU! Minato; Not Anon]

We need to talk, do you have time to meet?

THERE IS NOTHING I *CAN* DO.

Are you certain of that?

FROM WHAT I CAN RECALL, NO ONE CAN CHANGE THEIR GENETIC STRUCTURE.
SO YEAH.
NOT HAPPENING.

Ah, but an ideal self could be more than a physical one, your mental state, for one, is all but malleable, isn't it?

NOT EXACTLY.
THE PARTICULAR CHANGE THAT WOULD BE *FUCKING AMAZING* TO HAVE WOULD ALSO, INEVITABLY, CHANGE MY MENTAL STATE AS WELL.

My, that sounds dissatisfying, doesn't it?

NOPE.
IT JUST MEANS THAT MY FAULTS COULD EASILY BE CORRECTED IF NOT FOR THIS GENETIC DEFECT.

Interesting.

[There's a small silence as the man behind the screen pondered upon his next response.]

Thank you for your answer, I suppose.
