Taking a moment to contemplate the heinous geek’s words, a part of you can’t help but admit that yea, having a nigh-indestructible and infamously-volatile Evening Sanitation Coordinator on speed dial <span class="mu-i">IS</span> pretty neat! And, y’know, if he <span class="mu-i">does</span> have the capacity to be nice every now and then…
Your train of thought is derailed when you finally notice Denise grinning out of the corner of your eye. Springing into action, you give her sweaty forehead a resounding <span class="mu-s">FLICK–QUIT ACTING WEIRD, NERD!</span>
“<span class="mu-i">AUGH!</span>” She yelps, recoiling from the might of your blow, “<span class="mu-i">Y-you said it out loud! A-and you were SM-SM-SMILING near the end!</span>”
Still, you huff, blowing some imaginary smoke off of your pointer finger, she really needs to <span class="mu-r">COOL IT!</span> So, you continue, there’s a chance that Talbot can not only <span class="mu-b">TAKE COMMANDS,</span> but also <span class="mu-b">KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE 24/7?</span>
“<span class="mu-i">Correct…</span>” The scientist nods, prematurely recoiling to avoid a flick that never comes. “<span class="mu-i">Th-though it’s impossible to tell without testing… Th-that would require, erm, freeing me… Ha.. ha ha…</span>”
Jury’s still out on that, freak! Now that she mentions it, though, could she, like, <span class="mu-i">UPGRADE</span> those abilities? T’s good in a fight, but is there any way she can mess with his <span class="mu-b">ARMOR AND TENTACLES?</span> Ooh, or maybe she can make that <span class="mu-b">MIND CONTROL THING</span> work better! That’d be <span class="mu-i">bitchin’!</span>
“Y-yes… It certainly would…” Denise mutters under her breath. A whimsical look darts across her face for a moment before she snaps back to reality. Ope, there goes gravity. “<span class="mu-i">Bu-but t-to do that, I’d have t-to r-run some tests…</span>”
There she goes <span class="mu-i">again</span> with the tests! What’s the big deal, anyways? They aren’t <span class="mu-i">DANGEROUS</span>, right? A few seeds of doubt are planted in your mind when the scientist fails to look you in the eyes.
“<span class="mu-i">N-not dangerous, no… I-It’d b-be similar to h-how we altered his body b-before…</span>” Denise mumbles in a tone that inspires even <span class="mu-i">less</span> confidence in her than usual, “<span class="mu-i">B-but it WOULD be um, INVASIVE… a-and VERY PAINFUL!</span>”
Great, you reply with a chipper grin, then it’s still on the table! And now you have some ammo for when you talk with the big oaf one-on-one!
“<span class="mu-i">Whuh-WHUh-ONE-ON-ONE?!?!</span>” Sputters the scientist with uncharacteristic emotion in her voice! “<span class="mu-i">I erm… I mean… ‘ha ha’…</span>”
... What is <span class="mu-i">WITH</span> this bitch anyways?
