I wanna be made into a Lava Lamp! That wouild be awesome! But wouldn't he heat from the light cook the corpse?

It's got some kinks to be worked out yet; this is just the basic idea.

So you take a corpse and pump it full of bodily fluids? Sounds like a recipe for zombies, if you ask me.

You have some brilliant ideas there! :D That Lava lamp-thing sounds fantastic, but I personally think that something like AfterLight would be a better name for it. It's shorter and thus catchier, and "life" and "light" sound pretty much similar so it wouldn't be too complicated to figure out either. What do you think?

(Btw, in case you were wondering, I'm just somebody who stumbled upon your journal while searching for people who are interested in H.P. Lovecraft and Herbert West.)
