Touching Moment

Alivi: Eriko nods then she frowns, "Oh no..."
[3:14pm] Mere_Observer: Max cocks an eyebrow. "What is it? Should I not help?"
[3:14pm] Alivi: "We never got a sample…"
[3:15pm] Mere_Observer: "Of what? The Bioplasm? Sure we did, it's in the lab somewhere."
[3:15pm] Alivi: "No…the…liquid…"
[3:16pm] Roget: "Which liquid?"
[3:16pm] Mere_Observer: Max facepalms. "The black liquid. Shit, I knew I forgot something."
[3:17pm] Roget: "Black liquid?"
[3:18pm] Alivi: Eriko pushes herself up further. "We…forgot…"
[3:19pm] Mere_Observer: "It's what burned Taggart's hand. It was like liquid nitrogen but...worse...much much worse." Max stands up and gently pushes Eriko back down. "Calm down, it's okay."
[3:20pm] Alivi: "Max…no…we have to…."
[3:21pm] Mere_Observer: "Have to what? It's not like we can go back. Just lay down, it's okay."
[3:22pm] Roget: "I don't think she is 100% rational at the moment. She sometimes thinks she is back on her op."
[3:23pm] Alivi: "We have to….or else…we can't understand how to fix..."
[3:23pm] Roget: "How to fix what?"
[3:24pm] Alivi: "His hand..."
[3:24pm] Mere_Observer: "Oh, I see." Max get's down to Eriko's eye level. "Eriko...look at me. You have to understand, the sample...I already got a sample. I sent it back to Ralph to see if he can make somethin gfor Taggart's hand, okay?"
[3:25pm] Roget: Ralph gives Max a quizzical look, but says nothing.
[3:26pm] Alivi: Eriko nods. "Ok….so it didn't hurt you…when you got it? It didn't come after you?"
[3:27pm] Mere_Observer: "No, I'm fine. Nothing bad happened. I just got the sample and sent it back to the lab. Everything is fine."
[3:27pm] Alivi: "He can't…touch it…."
[3:28pm] Mere_Observer: "He won't. I'll keep him and everyone else away from it, okay?"
[3:29pm] Alivi: Eriko begins to relax.
[3:30pm] Mere_Observer: "There we go. What did I say before at the pool, do you remember?"
[3:30pm] Alivi: Eriko shakes her head.
[3:32pm] Mere_Observer: Max looks at Eriko reassuringly. 'We'll be fine."
[3:33pm] Alivi: "Ok...."
