From a hidden pocket in his head leather coat he takes out a PADD. "Doctor Keller's original formula, as far as I can remember it." He steps closer, to the doctor's side to show him, then swiping a clawed finger over it to switch views. "My own modifications."
He is close to cracking it, of that he's sure, going more for simply reactivating his now inactive digestive system rather than to eliminate the possibility to feed as the original had. But there are problems, that he in his frustration and weakened state haven't been able to get around.
