"I liked your theories, by the way. I never told you, but... they seem sound. Well thought out, if lacking research," he leaned against the wall next to her and offered Him back. "But there are some theories that require limited research."
Cela watched Copernicus take the potion and nodded in satisfaction. It was cool that Cope wasn't worried about playing with Him and even seemed to find the scorpion as interesting as she did. She sneezed again.
"You did?" Cela brightened, "I didn't think you did because you went all funny and ran away when I told you when Metal-Mouth and Daffy were there." Cela turned her head to study Cope seriously and took Him back. She petted the scorpion happily, "Why limited? I want to research my hypothesis as much as I can. I might need to find some volunteers though." Celandine mused, rubbing her watering eyes and sneezing violently again.
She slid down the wall, unintentionally taking a seat on the ground. It was just hard to stand. Sitting was easier. Cela carefully tucked Him down her shirt again and smiled a little woozily up at Cope.
