[It's all winding down! Who will win our last couple?]
<All right then. Let me go clock out, and I'll be right with you.> Gao gives her a smile and a wink. <Go ahead and make yourself comfortable, okay?> He motions towards one of the seats at an empty table.
"What gives me the right? The waiver that was part of your application gives me the right. Should you prosecute, it will hold up in any court of law. You have no case, since you gave us permission." The man tents his fingers together and studies the two. "My name is Mr. Harrison. I am one of the owners of this company. You were changed as part of an ongoing experiment..."
Harrison explains to them exactly what he told to Nova and Robert, regarding the testing phase of the nanomachines, the safety rate, the possibilities. "You are both part of a great undertaking. Thanks to your willingness, the world will benefit enormously." He turns to James and gives him a cold stare. "You have been given a rare opportunity. You have, sitting next to you, an intelligent, charming and phenomenally beautiful woman. Talk to her. Get to know her. You will find that she is still the same person she was before. I hope you do everything you can to make her happy. We will not punish you should you decide not to return her affections, but I cannot speak for what she will do to you should you spurn her." He turns to Jake. "My dear, you are hands down the finest specimen we've had walk through our halls in years. The complete package. You'll find you are abnormally healthy, and will have a long, productive life should you take care of yourself. However, even though the name your parents gave you should have a place in your heart, I recommend you find one more suiting your newfound graces."
"Anything else?"
[...You'd think there were tf's here...but there aren't! Oooh, the suspense!]
"Well, you'll have plenty of time to live in a van down by the river, when you're living...in a van down by the river!" --Matt Foley, motivational speaker
