Yeah...it does. [Please maybe stop the manic look in his eyes, Rei. But he turns his head to watch her, noticing the slime and shrugging a bit.]

I'm over here, Rei. How could I slime you from over here? [But that means it's working, so...yeah, he's a little pleased. Oops.]

[incandescentfaith]

You literally just threw it across the room!

[She swats at him, and a gobbet of slime flies from her palm and smacks him right in the face.

Which makes her laugh, in spite of how shocking it is. If it happens to one person, that means it's probably everyone, right?]

Oh...Christ now I'm drippy too!

[zerotohiro]

Hey! Don't use my own moves against me! [What is this, a video game? He swipes the slime away but he's pouting instead.]

...uh...Rei? Do you think that means...maybe you're slimy too now? Like permanently.

[incandescentfaith]

[She stops. Reaches out. And tries to suck up the slime he's thrown off too.]/small>

I don't know. I hope not? It will make work hard.

[zerotohiro]

Are you serious? We just discovered...whatever this is and you're still thinking about work? [...but suddenly...there's a frown. It is totally real and absolutely not just Hiro pretending to sell his point.] School's going to be hard, too...I should definitely stay home until we have an idea what's going on.

[incandescentfaith]

Hiro, come rain or shine, people need my help. doesn't matter if I'm a slime or not.

[Seriously.]

I have work to do. And you need an education. But I think we'll see about you going to school in the morning. If this is widespread maybe it'll be called off.

[zerotohiro]

You make it sound like you're a superhero. [But he lets the point go, looking at his slime-esque hands again.] My education's fine. Do I really have to sleep in the kitchen?

[incandescentfaith]

Can you clean up after yourself if you make a mess in your bed?

[she doesn't want to clean your sheets, boyo.]

[zerotohiro]

I'm fifteen, Rei. I know how to do my own laundry. [That's a pretty legit concern though.] Anyway, if I can really control this whole slime thing I bet I can absorb it out of the covers, too. I just have to practice.

[incandescentfaith]

Please do. I really don't think I have the budget to replace your sheets nightly...

[zerotohiro]

Very funny. [He could afford it, but he's not going to tell her about the extra money he's been hustling to give them an advantage.] ...it'll be fine. We'll see how things are in the morning.
