It's not certain that all the encephalon inhabitants in the tank are as 'nice' as Reil. I don't want you to get hurt." Her friend had the habit of getting himself and her into trouble and if he didn't take his fingers away then maybe he'd be there again. Turning her gaze to Jane she responded. "I've been working on a new system for analyzing and recording prophecies that will be quicker, more reliable and safer." They had found orb's with cracks lately that Laurel wanted to prevent from happening since prophecies were valuable.
Jane was relieved that Laurel had told Adam to take his hands off the tank--that saved her the problem of doing it herself, and Adam did not usually take well to being told to do things by her (maybe he sensed some governessy residue in her manner, she wasn't sure). At any rate, she was not at all sure even the Encephalon he was communing with was 'safe' just because they had a history (in fact, that probably made it less safe).

But, interested in what Lauren was working on, she turned back to the witch (keeping an eye on Adam in her peripheral vision to see if he would really remove his hands) and responded eagerly, "Oh, that sounds very useful! I'd been meaning to check with someone on the extent of the damage caused by that rock golem that got loose in the Chamber of Prophecy a few years ago." That had been Jane's first day at the Ministry and was very memorable.
