"That's the idea, anyway. But, hey, might as well keep you busy in the meantime," Faye says, reaching into her pocket for a small metal tin, flipping open the lid to reveal bright orange pills inside.
"When they recruited me, they gave me this tin. Pills to trigger energy manipulation, supposedly, though I haven't gone and tested them myself. I gave a quarter of a pill to one of the mice in the testing lab, and it didn't die, so." Faye shrugs, raising a brow. "At least they're probably not trying to snuff me out right away. But what these are made of, and what they're supposed to do, I'm not sure. Figured you'd have an easier time with the spectrometer than I would."
She picks out a few of the pills, sliding them in Owen's direction. "Just... promise me you won't go swallowing these yourself in the name of science. I don't think you're that reckless, but I've misjudged people before."
