She was about to flush the toilet. "Mother?" She looked back. There was a head popping out of the toilet, calling for her. "Mother?" The woman looked at it for a moment. Then, she flushed the toilet. The head disappeared in a rush of water. She left the bathroom. (3p, The Head, Cursed Bunny, Hongford Star, 2021) - P3

"My body was created with the things you dumped down the toilet, like your fallen-out hair and feces and toilet paper you used to wipe your behind." - P4
"I’m only asking that you keep dumping your body waste in the toilet so I can finish creating the rest of my body. Then I’ll go far away from here and live by my own means. So please, just keep using the toilet like you always have." - P4

She had flushed the toilet and was washing her hands when she caught sight of, through the mirror, the head peeping out from the toilet in her stall. - P5
