Lab

[reconstitution]

[ Really, he was surprised that Erik asked for his assistance, but he couldn't say no to the endeavor. At the very least, it wasn't for medical assistance, so that helped. Winter is walking by on the way to the bridge when he spots Erik checking over the chemical baths. It's been a few days since they'd spoken on it. ]

How is it coming along?

[grandstanding]

[Erik glances up at the voice, drawing his attention away from the latest piece to undergo the process. The assistance Winter gave had been useful; he may have gotten the laundry list of chemicals from Hank, but being able to do it within his own ship was beneficial.]

Very well. I've already gotten enough to finish what I was working on, so now it's as many extra pieces as I can manage before we leave here. [A small shrug.] I'll find uses for it, I'm certain.

[reconstitution]

[ Winter barely uses the lab for his own purposes, anyway, so why not share it? It feels good being able to use his augment in a beneficial way that doesn't involve him touching people. ]

Could you bring more with you to work on while we're between planets?

[grandstanding]

Yes, as long as there's somewhere to store it while it's unclean. [He'd rather not just have plastic bags of poison metal lying around. Could be a safety hazard... probably.]

If you want anything made, you can let me know.

[reconstitution]

I know where all the extra compartments on the ship are. If they're not in use, we can store them there.

[ Out of the way of prying eyes and not sitting around as a hazard. ]

I wouldn't know what to ask for.

[grandstanding]

That works for me. [It saves him having to keep it in his own room, or block out the lab space.] I'll get industrial-strength bags to keep it in.

[He shrugs, unconcerned.] It's an open offer. There's plenty of excess.

[reconstitution]

There are a few unused compartments in the cargo bay, and one in the hall.

[ Not that Winter ever uses the lab. It's nice seeing someone use it for something. ]

I'll let you know if something comes up.

[grandstanding]

[He nods; he'll go check them out later. They won't be hard for him to find, if he pays the slightest bit of attention.]

There will always be something that comes up. Even if it's repair work. [Theoretically, that's his job.]

[reconstitution]

Even if it doesn't, it can be traded at other planets for other resources.

[ Then again, there's no telling what will come up, so it may be best to simply keep the leftovers for the ship's personal use. ]

[grandstanding]

That's true, but I have plenty of credits so far. I can use those first.
