TIME FOR A CLUSTERFUCK OF SCIENCE AND SHIT!

[third_alternative]

[Deep inside the mysterious and cavernous depths of the labs...

Scientists frantically scribble on clipboards and walk around, trying not to bump into each other. Others hunch over pieces of machinery, tinkering with them intently. There is a frenzied air about as the smell of burnt coffee and all-nighters (which does, in fact, have a stench) permeates through the building.

What now?]

That's the thing, the state of emergency has made everything informal at the moment. This simplifies things and since they made me the supervisor of the project I don't think anyone's really going to mind. We'll concentrate on the hiring paperwork later, after all this is over.

...I hate to admit it, but I hope the supervisory thing is a temporary position. I hate administration. Plus I'm happier when I'm in the lab getting my hands dirty.

Have you put any thought into which branch you're going to work in?

Not yet. I'll look into it. I would probably want to focus more on the abstract mathematical aspects than the hands-on research, however. I only know so much about science, after all.

You really are too generous, Gordon. Thank you.

It's secretly for selfish reasons, though. With you focused on building a better equation, you'll give us lab monkeys more time to play with the fun stuff.
