The website launches with nine body parts floating through space, each of which will morph into the shape of a mutated necromorph body part before becoming clickable, with one a new chunk of content activated every Monday, starting this week. The first of the two stories, “Misplaced Affection”, is the story of an organ replacement tech who falls for a female officer.
