[Eleanor is sitting at a small table in her bedroom which is still at mutanthaus I believe, her phone resting on the far side of the table to film her. There's a small Christmas tree on the floor behind her, with a little pile of torn up wrappings under it. But her phone is mostly focusing on what is on the table, which appears to be a large,

...Use it? How would you use such a thing...?

[notyourutopian]

Like this.

[She picks up the syringe and taps the top of the container, where there is a little hole to shove it in and draw out some of the contents. But she doesn't actually do that, and after a moment she sets the syringe down again.]

Then I would inject it into my arm or wrist.

[destinist]

[welp, that's definitely a bit concerning.]

So you don't know what it is... Would it be risky to introduce it to your blood?

[notyourutopian]

Maybe. I'm not sure. It was done several times to me before.

The real issue is just not knowing what it does, so I won't know what the immediate effects will be.

Bees?

[notyourutopian]

Yes. There's one of these that allows you to summon swarms of bees.

I always found it very...unsettling.

[ Olivia's frowning at the camera, looking both concerned and somewhat interested by this. ] So if I understand this right, you inject that and it gives you some kind of... abilities?

[video]

[notyourutopian]

Basically.

The chemicals can rewrite genetic coding and grant...enhancements, for a lack of a better word.

I was unconscious when they did it to me the first time. I understand it can be rather unpleasant.

[ She grimaces a little. ] I would imagine.

Maybe you should contact one of the scientists here. They might be able to run some tests, give you some idea of what you're dealing with...

[video]

[notyourutopian]

Mm...[Eleanor looks rather uncomfortable for a moment.]

I'm not...really sure I'd want anyone here understanding this. I don't even like it, honestly. [She turns the phylactery absently on the table, twisting it around slowly.]

It destroyed an entire city, I would hate for it to get loose here, if someone figured out how to recreate it...

I generally object to people injecting themselves with strange substances.

Re: [video]

[notyourutopian]

It's not a strange substance, it's a Plasmid.

A so far unidentified plasmid.

[video]

[notjelly]

And what, pray tell, is a "plasmid"?

[video]

[notyourutopian]

Genetic engineering in a bottle.

They're what gave me my powers.

[mistyoldworld]

They look like crystals.

Re: [video]

[notyourutopian]

I...suppose.

They are't, though. It's glass.

[She taps the side of the syringe with a fingernail, and it tings.]

[video]

[mistyoldworld]

Glass? What is glass?

Re: [video]

[notyourutopian]

...Sand that is cooked very highly so it melts into a clear, malleable substance.

You've never heard of glass?
