Wisconsin fast plants (so called because they are from Wisconsin, fast-growing, and plants) are the subject of Bella and Bridget's chosen bio experiment. It involves taking at least some measurements after sunset - Bella managed to find an exact specific experiment design that hasn't been done before, when she heard they were allowed to choose their own, and even though all it will determine is whether indoor plants without windows can "tell if it's night" even if you leave the light on all the time, she is slightly excited about this.

She meets Bridget there. They measure their plants in the lit room and the dark room, take pictures, and write down subjective evaluations of leaf droopiness. They leave.

They're about a third of the way to Bella's building when a man's voice behind them says, "Hello, girls."

regularsized: Laughing. (① not as rare as you'd)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
...Bridget laughs. "You have a positively vicious imagination," she says. "I haven't tested that specifically, but if I had to guess, I'd say the first one. I have broken a few drill bits, stripped the teeth off a chainsaw, and now flattened a bullet."

Date: 2012-10-20 01:11 am (UTC)
regularsized: Smiling, perhaps hopeful or nervous. (③ I'm sorry. That was mean.)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"Go for it. Where did you learn to break people's wrists, anyway?"

Date: 2012-10-20 01:17 am (UTC)
edgeofyourseat: Grinning, maybe licking lips. (⑴ you say bark I say bite)

[Hell yes that appeals to me,] says Alice, predictably.

"Ta-daa," says Bridget, somewhat deadpan.

Date: 2012-10-20 01:26 am (UTC)
regularsized: Adjusting glasses. Smirking or harrumphing. (④ if I couldn't handle pointy things)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"Less so than you'd think," she says, getting to her feet. "I haven't been made like this in a long time. As long as I don't rely on it, which I don't, it's pretty easy to avoid demonstrating."

Date: 2012-10-20 01:26 am (UTC)
edgeofyourseat: Grinning, friendly. (⑵ extraordinarily nice)
From: [personal profile] edgeofyourseat
[Sucks to be Bridget,] is Alice's first response, because of course it is. [That's kinda awesome, though. Did you tell her about your brain?]

Date: 2012-10-20 01:33 am (UTC)
regularsized: Neutral or ambiguous. Wearing an indigo sweater. (⑤ you're renting my room)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"I do get hungry, I don't get cramps or headaches, loud noises are annoying and no I have not tested whether I am susceptible to hearing damage, spicy things taste like spicy things but they don't really hurt."

Date: 2012-10-20 01:34 am (UTC)
edgeofyourseat: Smiling, possibly fake, mildly creepy. (⑸ playful as a pussy cat)
From: [personal profile] edgeofyourseat
[But what if she's really into pain and doesn't know it 'cause she can't get hurt? That would suck!] he insists.

Date: 2012-10-20 01:41 am (UTC)
edgeofyourseat: Confused or hurt. (⑿ never been born at all)
From: [personal profile] edgeofyourseat
Alice is momentarily distracted by that thought.

It is kind of genuinely horrifying in a way that very few things are, until he remembers that Bella has magic pain powers, which makes it a little better, and then he remembers that he could have magic pain powers if he wanted to and could use them on himself, and then it's fine.

Date: 2012-10-20 01:42 am (UTC)
regularsized: Smiling slightly. Looking down. (② avoiding stress isn't the secret)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"I have not in fact tried that bizarrely specific test," she says. "I do shed hair sometimes in the normal way."

Date: 2012-10-20 01:47 am (UTC)
edgeofyourseat: Smiling, affectionate or amused. (⑶ your wish is my command)
From: [personal profile] edgeofyourseat
He hugs himself and grins, appropriately comforted. [I love you.]

Date: 2012-10-20 01:48 am (UTC)
regularsized: Smiling, perhaps hopeful or nervous. (③ I'm sorry. That was mean.)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"I don't have tweezers," she admits. "Sorry to disappoint."

Date: 2012-10-20 01:52 am (UTC)
regularsized: Adjusting glasses. Smirking or harrumphing. (④ if I couldn't handle pointy things)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"I am more entertained than creeped out by a long shot," says Bridget. "I will let you know if that changes. I used to chew my fingernails when I was a kid, post-miracle, and I never managed to hurt myself that way; does that adequately answer your question?"

Date: 2012-10-20 01:55 am (UTC)
regularsized: Neutral or ambiguous. Wearing an indigo sweater. (⑤ you're renting my room)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"Pretty aggressively, but then, I don't know how much chewing is usually enough to hurt."

Date: 2012-10-20 02:01 am (UTC)
regularsized: Smiling slightly. Looking down. (② avoiding stress isn't the secret)
From: [personal profile] regularsized
"I haven't experimented with either of those. How do you come up with these things?" she wonders.
