[X] Work with Szayel. In exchange you will ask for…
-[X] Nothing. By feigning pure scientific interest in his work and an eagerness to help him, you will please him greatly and make him less likely to scrutinize your work, putting you in a betterposition to make the Sacrophagus less inhumane, and perhaps giving you the opportunity to pilfer Szayel's notes on other subjects for your own use.

Arguments have made me feel that healing wouldn't be the worst, so I'm going to go with what I actually want.

[X] Refuse. Nothing is worth the moral hazard of working on this project, or the dangers of Szayel's laboratory. You will offend the Espada, who might not even understand why you're letting go of such an opportunity, but Style will let you do so smoothly enough that he won't hold a grudge.

Although I like how max (?) Style just sliiiides us in to "he won't hold a grudge."

[X] Work with Szayel. In exchange you will ask for…
-[X] Healing your crippling injuries. With the Quinta as your mistress, there is no risk of him offending her by turning you into a freaky mutant, but letting Szayel play around with your insides might still have consequences, even - especially - if he believes he's helping you doing so. Then again, these consequences could be positive…

To those of you voting anything other than healing:

Currently, Nemo's wounds is preventing her from enjoying cake. And that's just inhuman.

Please let Nemo heal so she can eat proper food again and gain full value of Grimmjow's bracelet!

And just think, Cirucci is probably going to rope Jackelton into preparing the food, which means the gala will have lots of delicious cake and Nemo won't be able to enjoy any of it. :V

Not only is this an affront to empathy, the Sarcophagus is an affront to our art. Not because it causes pain, not because it lacks bonding for purpose, not because it works against the wearer to be greater instead of with them. No, this device is an affront because it's incomplete in its design!

How will it guide Yammy when he's enraged? Yammy was, at best, a loose cannon broaching upon natural disaster even before Szayel's modifications. When the new Yammy is driven mad with pain and rage and trapped within an armored Iron Maiden Uniform, how can you make Yammy attack who and where you want? How would you stop Yammy at the end?

The Sarcophagus just makes Yammy more potent without addressing any of his faults. We, as true artists, must address this.

So, considering the Utilitarian argument and...

It's obvious Ssayzel enjoys torturing Yammy. A lot. Possibly to the point that he gets more pleasure out of inflicting the torture than Yammy experiences pain.

Therefore the only truly moral vote is the one which maximizes the amount of Ssayzel torturing Yammy that takes place.

Yammy is dead though, right?

I'm not imagining this am I? That's a corpse-puppet made out of Yammy and there isn't a person in the husk, correct?

Okay, I am tired of this bullshit. I may have flanderised opponents opinion to a degree, but this entering slander territory. If you have a genuine point against me, then say it.

Yammy survived the battle with Cirucci, but the extent of his injuries and the fact there wouldn't be enough time for him to naturally build up the power needed for his intended role led to him being handed over to Szayel. He's alive... but whatever portion of his mind is left after Szayel's work is probably wishing to high heaven that he wasn't. Cirucci actually practically begged Ulqi to kill him instead of giving him to Szayel, as it would have been more merciful.

I think he has mind controlling computers or something, possibly based off of his Resurrecion. I also think that there's a non-zero chance that at some time in one of the Yammy-terminator's fights he's going to take a headblow, and the shockwave will pass through his noggin fairly harmlessly except for the bit where it shatters everything in there, not that Yammy cares.

And then there's an angry fake Vasto running around.

Well maybe Nemo can...tweak the design to let it happen.

The result will either be a aimless killing machine that will cause mass destruction wherever it is initially released whether that be Soul Society, Las Nocher or the world of the living, or he will have some measure of cognition, in which case both us and Cirucci will be on his shit-list, either way that is a terrible idea.

In which case he will just body-hop ressurect and try to explode Yammytrons organs.
EDIT: Also leaving him alive to figure to possibly figure out that he has been sabotaged, after which no amount of style will prevent him from holding a grudge.

Szayel: "Oh, don't worry. I've utterly crippled his free will. I've cut out the parts of his brain that would let him stand up to me. There is no way ever that someone could get past my safeguards."

*meanwhile, in the world of the living*

Orihime: "Achooooooooooooo!"

Tatsuki: "Bless you."

Kisuke: "You have time to say 'bless you', you have time to practice more! Tessai! More fireballs!"

It won't win but uh no. Syzael is too goddamn creepy for me. Aoneiro was great though.
