Why would I say no? Kaz brings me… let’s call them interesting projects. I like problem solving. [Kaz hands him an absolutely lunatic request and Wylan gets to figure out how to make it work. Two sides of a workaholic puzzle-loving coin that finally found one another.]
[As they talk Kaz does as he usually does, which is tilt and tip bottles and items to better look at them and the labels.]
Don’t, Kaz. That one could leave you hairless. [Wylan draws in a patient breath and gives a pointed smile as Kaz freezes and slowly moves his hand to his side giving that particular bottle a wide berth.] You know, Inej and Nina never randomly touch things in my lab. Only you and Jesper. [He’s not saying it’s a Them Problem but he is.]
I like knowing what goes into what you do. [Chemistry is a whole other sort of puzzle, and Kaz likes puzzles. He’ll never be a chemist, but he’s curious.]
[Gently, because Wylan gets that, he really does.] And I’d be happy to tell you. Inej would be very cross to come home and find you without eyebrows, right? Hopefully you’re coming home to visit before they’d grow back?
