The Skeleton Factory

Last night, Bella told me about a dream she had:

It is a factory with a long conveyor belt, where skeletons are made bone-by-bone. At the end of the conveyor belt, the skeletons jump off, and they work on the line for a while, building other skeletons. After doing some time on the line, they climb on the SECOND conveyor belt.

The second belt is for "Skin patching": There is a giant robot hand with skin on it. It slaps down onto the skeletons, giving them skin on one side. Then a spatula flips the skeletons, and the hand slaps down on their backs, giving them skin there.

And that's the end of the line: Now they're people.
