Odette sighed in relief, "Wait.. how are you not dead?" again, she felt bad - but someone needed to ask the awkward questions and that person was going to be her.

Lucy dug into her satchel, taking the spell book out and opening it. The cover was leather, and half of the pages were white, while the others were black. She turned to the white page section, flipping through the pages, half listening to what the others were saying.
Maroon shrugged, "No idea. Maybe the universe wants to keep me suffering?"
pets
The corner of Lucy’s mouth twitched up slightly in a faint smile as she continued flipping through the pages. “Ever had ideas on a real cure?” She asked, her tone level as she kept her eyes on the page she was reading.
"Like I said, I'm working on an artificial blood prototype in my lab." Maroon pointed at the left wall, that had a single door in it.
pets
She glanced up for a moment, gazing at the door fo ra moment before raising her eyes to look at Maroon. “Close to figuring it out?”
Maroon nodded, "Close. Really close. In fact, I'm picking up my Nobel Prize for it next week."
pets
“Nobel Prize,” Lucy raised her eyebrows, “Impressive.” She folded the corner over of a page in the spell book.
"I didn't think you would take me seriously." Maroon walked towards the back of the room, towards the glass office.

“Why wouldn’t I?” She questioned, turning in the direction he was heading, stuffing the spell book into her satchel. “You’ve given me no reason not to do so.”
Maroon shrugged, "You're right."

Lucy placed her hands on her hips, watching him for a moment before speaking. “If you don’t need anything else, I can let myself out.”
"Go ahead. I need to get to work anyway." Maroon walked towards the wall where they came in from and waved his key, "You can only get out if you're using the key, and you can only get in using the key."
(Does Lucy want to maybe be suspicious and check Maroon's left wall lab out?)
pets
(Sounds good to me.)
Lucy nods and glances from the key to the door on the left side of the room. She gets an idea and follows him towards the door, eyes still on the key, taking in its details.
"My key isn't going to open up a bank vault, y'know. Just my lab. Not all of my lab either." Maroon started to talk, "The only thing that can open my left wall lab is a blood scan. Fitting, isn't it?"
pets
Lucy held back the urge to cringe, tossing her plan out. How was she supposed to get in now? She couldn’t just prick him with a needle to get a drop of blood or two, so how was she going to pull this off?
Maroon grinned, "But of course, I have a gadget on the right counter," he pointed to it, "that effortlessly takes blood without the person noticing. I use it on the people who want to donate blood, but are scared of the needle."
pets
Lucy’s eyes drifted to the gadget, and she nodded. “Huh, how nice of you,” she said slowly, turning back to him. When the gadget is out of his line of sight, she thinks, ‘Abite’, and it is lifted into the air, and it pricks the back of his neck. The gadget is set back down quietly and the drops of blood appear in a small vial that sticks halfway out of her satchel. “Well, take care now. Hopefully you’ll be better soon.”
Maroon smiled, "Definitely." he walked out of the lab and into the main building.
Robin watched Lucy do this in silence, not sure whether to mention it or not. After Maroon left, he asked, "What are you doing?"
Maroon looked at the clock, waiting for Lucy to break into the left lab. He hadn't exactly been subtle about giving her clues, so she should be done any minute now.
pets
Lucy turned to Robin and held up the vial. “That room he was talking about, arent you the least bit curious as to what’s in there? It was bad to steal, especially blood, but he’s obviously hiding something.” She approached the door and held the small bit of blood up to the scanner.
Odette found herself confused by their scientific discussion, or whatever it was, and stood near Robin who was currently talking to Maroon.
pets
Lucy watched as the door unlocked and she pushed it open, peering inside hesitantly.
(want me to describe it?)
pets
(Yeah, that’d be helpful.)
It kinda looks like this, only white and the glass tubes are filled with blood:

Lucy flicked a light on and her eyes widened. There was so much more blood than she had thought, as she had not expected there to be this much being stored. She grimaced noticeabley and stepped in, wanting to get a better look around just in case.
"I-I mean, isn't it his business?" Robin looked around nervously. (Gtg to bed)
