analienlikeyou replied to your post “He's in Sycamore's office when he comes in. He's clearly, blatantly going through his research files. "Oh, Sycamore." He doesn't even look up at him. (m!a inverted personality)”
"What? It's just paper. One scientist to another, right?" He snickers, slapping his back, perhaps a little too hard. "Relax, Gus. You can be a lil' high strung."
"They're important research papers..." He began to explain, but was promptly cut off by the hard smack to his back. Inching away from the man, he crouched to gather the fallen materials.

"Are you quite alright, Manny? You seem... off?"
Was he perhaps ill? Or under the influence of something? The professor wanted to find out.
