He reaches over and plucks one missed pellet from Rags' hair, where thanks to the power of physics, it is trying to burrow. "Looks as though I could just use you to collect them. Little bastards and static electricity seem to be a match made in heaven."
"On one level, the same as the forces that turn on lights around here. Differences in the way they're charged..." He trails off. "You probably don't feel like science lectures."
"Actually, yeah. A science lecture is exactly what I want." They're playful and sarcastic, but he can't forget the real reason that he had Adrian over. He just wants to erase that for a while.
Adrian considers a moment, nods, and pulls Rags gently to him to begin a soft, slightly meandering explanation of what static electricity is. Never let it be said he doesn't understand the assignment.
