Lyth slipped into the lab right on Zaide's heels, the door closed and locked with a sharp click. The lab was fairly dim, the lighting blocked by mountains of research papers, piles of both used and clean test-tubes and beakers, and a surprising amount of broken microscopes. "Come come, over this way!" Leading a path through the piles of debris, Lyth brought the boy over to the only clean spot in the lab. A lone chair sat in a circle of light, the mess covering the rest of the lab hanging on the edges of the shadows. Without nothing more than a twisted smile, the scientist forced the boy to sit, moving quickly with practiced precision as he strapped down each limb, ensuring Zaide couldn't stand. The stretch of leather was a disgusting orange in his vision, but worth the discomfort for the payoff in the end. Finished with the last strap, Lyth stepped back, giving the boy a once over. "Perfect~ Now, sit tight a moment."
Turning away, the blonde went rummaging through the lab, scurrying back and forth as he grabbed materials he'd need for his little experiment. Through it all, his smile never lessened, stuck wide and twisted on his lips, green eyes blazing with an enthusiasm generally reserved for children, or the unhinged. He came back into the circle of light with his arms full, setting up a simple pulley and lever system, extending it above Zaide. "Right. Now for the final touch…" He opened a nearby cabinet, the test tubes inside all lined up neatly in a row, each filled with a clear liquid. Tapping each with a finger, he chose one at brought it over to the boy. "Now, please hold your hand open, palm facing down." He waited a moment for Zaide to follow instructions, before uncorking the test tube, and allowing a single drop to hit the back of the boy's hand. The skin began to immediately bubble and hiss as the acid ate away at the flesh, sinking in further through the boy's skin.
