I'll need to make you bacon then. Perhaps bacon and pepper pudding. I wonder if I can get the formulation right.

[quantumtangled]

Why?

[unfringed]

Because everyone should taste bacon.

[He seems pleased that September didn't refuse and he looks back at his drug.]

[quantumtangled]

I cannot. All I will taste is the pepper.

[Which is fine.]

Do not let it concern you.

[unfringed]

[Oh, he seems a little disappointed by that. He was hoping to make bacon pepper pudding.

He doesn't bother to hide his disappointment as he adjusts the Bunsen burner beneath the beaker.]

Maybe I can make bacon flavored peppers.

[quantumtangled]

[He just can't wrap his mind around why, and he won't lie about it.]

[He also looks a bit rundown.]

If you would like.

[unfringed]

[He nods and stares at the flask until it hits the right moment, then turns it off and removes it using gloves to cool. He glances up at September as he readies the next batch.]

Do you really not sleep at all?

[quantumtangled]

[He keeps on gutting a flashlight, of all things, taking it apart and sorting the bits.]

Yes.

[unfringed]

Perhaps you should. You look tired.

Oh! I could make you some herbal tea! How about that?

[quantumtangled]

'Tired' has been written out of us. It cannot be.

[unfringed]

Then why do you look tired?

[He moves things off a metal tray and holds it up as an approximation of a mirror.]

[quantumtangled]

[He doesn't have a word to say, only headtilting at his own reflection, wondering. Walter's surely used to silences.]

[unfringed]

[He is and holds the tray until he thinks September has finished examining himself.]

I've never seen you for this long uninterrupted, but I do know tired when I see it. Belly looked tired sometimes in the lab after a few days of not going outside.

[quantumtangled]

I have been outside, on occasion. Being tired is less impossible than becoming an animal, though.

[unfringed]

I thought you said you didn't need sleep?

[quantumtangled]

I... should not.

[unfringed]

...Do you know what it is like to be tired?

[quantumtangled]

No, I do not have the understanding of it that you do.

[unfringed]

It's when your body stops functioning at it's peak due to a lack of energy. Have you noticed any sluggishness in your mind or body?

[quantumtangled]

Yes, I can say that I am.

[unfringed]

Then you should rest.

[He put his utensils away and pushed the safety goggles off his head.]

There's a room there for you. Take a few hours and sleep.

[quantumtangled]

We will need to ascertain the cause once I have.

[unfringed]

I would need to examine your physiology then. To understand what the cause might be.

[quantumtangled]

It needs to be known if it is progressive.

[He can poke at his own body just fine, though.]

[unfringed]

I'll review the tapes of the lab I began taking on the day of your arrival.

[Because that's not creepy at all.]

However, I will also require you to be taking personal notes regarding anything new you experience - anything from a change in your outward appearance, a sluggishness of the mind, a new sensation, anything.
