“Oh thank God. I’m still sorry about that though, Bookman belted me to the chair so I couldn’t leave until I finished. It took forever for me to get him to release me.” He mumbled, letting out a loud sigh as he flopped onto the couch next to Allen. Automatically he swung an arm over the white haired male’s shoulder and smiled, half paying attention to Komui while the other half was focused on playing with Allen’s hair.

When Komui suddenly freaked out about the ‘water’ Lavi’s eyes widened. He had run into a few of the hidden objects in Komui’s office. “Let me see that…” The redhead plucked the bottle from Allen’s hands, sniffed it, and then gave it back. “Doesn’t smell like anything, but I’ll keep an eye on you while we’re gone.”

Allen nodded, still looking worried as he passed the empty bottle to Komui and accepted the mission documents. 

“Don’t worry, Allen, you are probably fine. Most of the potions we have here take effect very quickly, so its likely that it was just water that someone left around.” Komui said, smiling as he started ushering the pair to the door. “I can analyze whats left and double check, but Its likely you are fine!” 

Allen wondered if he didn’t sound a little too optimistic, but he did have to agree. His experience with the Science Departments experiments showed that they usually had immediate effect.

“Will you know by the time we report in?” Allen asked.

“Well I will at least be able to tell you if it was water or not by then.” Komui said, his wide grin not at all reassuring. “Now off you go!”
