"Are you alive?" The scientist grabbed the monster by the shoulders and shook it roughly, searching for any sign of life, any small glimmer of hope.
The monster opened it's eyes. "I am alive," it said, holding it's arms out to it's creator.
The scientist, overwhelmed with joy, embraced the creature. "I love you, father," said the beast. "I love you too son," said the scientist, holding the beast even tighter to him as he wept with joy.
Only after many minutes of embrace did the scientist begin to wonder how the creature had responded, as he had never given it a mouth.
