Ivory smiled up at the Professor. Yes siree Bob, she was being careful.
Most especially after the certain accident with the faulty stirrer. Ahm. Yes. But wait...? What...? ...Huh?
Her face quickly turned to one of confusion and she was pretty sure that the question marks she saw flying around in the air were entirely visible. "Well I suppose just sticking my finger in there and moving it around until one sticks is out of the question sooooo....that...er...makes that a very good question, Professor...one which I have considered with great thought...and concentration...and...I...have come to the conclusion...that...the solution...which I,...that is me...am looking for, for this problem...is the use of..." She totally had thought of this already. Totally. And she was soo not stalling...well...maybe just a little.
Using the valuable blabbering time as a stalling technique while her gaze roved her workstation trying to come up with an idea, her eyes finally fell on one of the pipettes and she lifted it up triumphantly."The use of THIS!"
As she held it up in the air, she tried to keep her smile as confident as possible. On hind sight she'd blabbed for a good time but the result wasn't soo bad. A pipette? She could've thought of worse. She could've been serious about sticking her finger in, or about using the tweezers which would just break the little thing, or just tipping the jar until only one came out.
No, a pipette was not that bad an idea. The whiskers were light, right? A good strong confident release of the pipettes bulb would whoosh one right in there...just like a lung would right? Except you know...without the attack on a person's trachea or bronchus.
Staring up at the Professor, the pipette held high in the air, she waited for his response.
