— dedicated for that plant. she had no life outside of work.. but she wasn't about to tell him that. "I've been alright. normal. nothing special. no caves collapsing." and a little shrug.

— probably assumed everyone wishes they were scientists. "I've had a few troubles with tests, but I think it's still all good. I'll have the final results by tomorrow!" oh the excitement on her face. "then, I would definitely be able to give you my ground-breaking discovery."

— she had put her teammates in; so she could only guess that perhaps Felix did keep his word and not reported her after all... "Okay, I think I can take some time off to eat and hear all about your farm life."

— "Ran out of fun stuff to do, huh?" She'd thought he'd only said yes a week ago so he wouldn't sound rude, and to see him actually make the visit was a bit of a surprise to her.

— that would finally lock her theory in place. The little tap on her shoulder had to zap her out of deep concentration that she almost jumped out of her chair. Obviously, however, when Vera came out to meet him, he was greeted with arched eyebrows, and curious looks. —

— do live only in tunnels, with just little light... we need more of it, we really do." now her eyebrows were pulled close together in concentration, many different ideas running through her mind while she simply stared at their boots. "we need to learn how to plant them, how —

—and not die, but it possibly has some healing abilities; the colour, the texture, it's all indications for that. you'll see. once I prove it." She nodded firmly, oh so confidently.

— tempting to just pull out her papers and show him everything, but since she just could not, Vera decided to simply speak it all out. "most things we've found so far were either poisonous or completely useless, but 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔–I think, not only will we be able to eat it —
