gollark: I mean, if you don't have the rest of the body duplicated, that's still probably not going to *double* energy use.
gollark: You eat to satisfy your body's energy requirements; the digestivey thing doesn't take up most of that.

gollark: Anyway, it looks okay at small scales, so I put it up.
gollark: The version you made which was mostly transparent earlier has some borders on the top.
