He wasn’t wrong she had missed an equation. God damn math problems. Licking her lips she spun around on the swivel chair to look at him. Her eyes narrowed and her arms crossed over her chest. “Fine, then you do it. Let’s see how well you know how to work a Spectrometer.” Standing up from her chair she eyed him up and down. “Are you new to the lab or have I just never seen you before….”
“I’ll been here for ten years.” Newt proclaimed, “I’ve not seen you in these parts.” Yeah, that was probably a bit rude. But then again, she wasn’t that polite either, eye for an eye and all that. Childlish, but so was he. “It’s not my first rodeo, miss.” He moved to fix the whole equation and added a few variables that would increase the efficiency of the machine, typing as fast as he could. There wasn’t a need to show off, but hey, Newt was a competitive person by nature.
There’s a scrambling to get to a rolling chair which catapults her across the room to get the computer that someone is about to probably touch.
”Don’t do that. Don’t touch that! Just don’t! Please! I’m in the middle of running some data- justpleasedon’ttouchthat??”
“Yeah, but you missed an equation here, and here.” Newt pointed at the screen. “Wouldn’t be very accurate data if the calculations of the light aren’t right.” It probably wouldn’t blow up or disintegrate as things he were working on, after all they were very unstable elements, but better to be safe than sorry. Wouldn’t want an experiment going haywire if he could fix the problem before the actual physical part of the experiment.
