| | |  Toxicology & Analysis Laboratory
The Toxicology and Development Laboratory on level 3 is a facility set aside for employees of the Accidents and Catastrophes department in order to continually work on their brewing and potion identification skills, or develop some experimental potions for assessment and tweaking purposes. While this Laboratory is primarily for use by potioneers, it is also a space appropriate for those who are working to identify particular spells or charms as found on bewitched objects.
This is a larger and more modern-appearing space than the Magical Forensics Laboratory found on Level 2, and more specialised for Potion brewing and experimentation. Law Enforcement Employees with the appropriate clearance, DERP Botanists who need more space and facilities than what the greenhouses provide, and Ever-Locked Room Potioneers and Charmists from the Department of Mysteries are permitted to work here along side the Accidents and Catastrophes potions specialists as needed.
To one side of the lab there are brewing stations complete with all the equipment a potioneer might need. Along the back wall there are magical analysis machines that help with analysing constituent and component parts and ingredients of unidentified potions, as well as testing whether certain ingredients might react dangerously together. Along the other side of the lab you'll find stations for preparing ingredients and analysing bewitched objects. There is also a special magical poisons work area, and plenty of storage space for in-progress potions and completed brews.
If you need anything else within this space, you are expected to either provide it yourself or speak with your department head if it is something a little more questionable, large, or dangerous. Many muggle items are available in storage for charms or potions work (including a few automobiles), and you may indeed find some items within the storage cupboard on the other side of the department. Please remember this is a dangerous work zone and all safety procedures must be followed to the letter - use your protective charms and make use of the protective gear provided.
While this room is intended for use primarily by level 3 employees, those who work in other departments may make use of this space with a written request and approval from Maddox Quigley, Accidents and Catastrophes Department Head.
Quote: OOC:
If YOU want to make use of this thread for RPing you are more than welcome to! A&C employees do not need to ask permission to RP here, and are encouraged to do so regularly to work on their character's skills. If you're not part of A&C please send DaniDiNardo a PM or VM or have your character make a request to use this space IC, you'll likely be approved but I'd like to keep track of who is in here, and the reasons for it too. I highly encourage MLE, DERP and Mysteries employees to come and play here!
Sometimes, a particular laboratory scenario may be provided for A&C employees to work on. An announcement will be made whenever these are happening.
As usual all Site Rules apply at all times.

Grayson frowned down at the vial of unknown potion. A part of him wanted this damn thing to explode or some crap so he wouldn't have to deal with it any longer but the other part of him, a larger part of him, knew that that would only give him more work to do and he wasn't here for that.
Maybe he should call Meriwether. See if the weirdo had anything better up his sleeve to deal with this-
Knock knock!
People knocking on the lab door was something he was used to but you know what he wasn't used to? Looking up and seeing AINA of all freaking people just standing there. And there was a hand waving out of the window and the word 'DAD', which, lol, he KNEW wasn't from Aina Banner.
But this didn't answer a question he had, which was: what in the ever-lasting-
Placing the pipette down and putting a stopper on the vial, Grayson took off his gloves and started heading to the door. He reached up and took off his goggles as he walked, taking extra care to flip his hair as he did so. Why? Because he was extra can.
Opening the door, he gave the woman a simple look up and down and nod while saying, "Aina," before turning to the young boy wearing a purple tutu. "FLYNN!" He bent down until he was somewhat height level with the boy and opened out his arms.

The department head turned cheetah had lost all sense of how to tell time and therefore had no idea just how long he had been in this cage. What the reluctant feline did know was that raw meat he was served was of the finest quality and those little bouts of exercise where he was dragged out of this cage on a leash and permitted to run and stretch his legs came once a day and did not last nearly long enough.
But today? Well, today he was curled up in a ball. Fast asleep and purring. Without a care in the world which, in theory, was a pleasant sort of break compared to the daily musings and existence that was one Airey Flamsteed. One could even hear the sound of purring coming from his sleek cheetah body if one were to listen carefully enough.

One could even hear the sound of purring coming from his sleek cheetah body if one were to listen carefully enough. Left up to him, Airey would be his pet cheetah for a while longer...okay more than a while. The irony was too much. The man couldn't stand a strand of fur on a harmless cat and here he was, spotted and furry. Being an animagus, he could still communicate with the man whenever in cat form so he couldn't REALLY miss him, but alas, the man had a woman at home and children. Besides, life in a cage was no life at all.
Awww, just look at him there sleeping. Not a care in the world. No meeting in the afternoon--did he really have to go to that? Could he duck out? Surely an accomplishment like this deserved a proper nap.
Right. Airey.
Maddox suppressed a yawn as he slipped a pair of earbuds in. He had great news, and there was only one way to share good news. The Department Head charmed a pair of cymbals to move toward the cage and begin banging.
"RISE AND SHINE AIREY, TODAY'S THE DAY!" Sonorus was needed too. Obviously. Good thing he was still caged, eh?

"RISE AND SHINE AIREY, TODAY'S THE DAY!" Sonorus was needed too. Obviously. Good thing he was still caged, eh? It was ironic. Or perhaps some sort of karmic lesson coming back to haunt him. Perhaps the man would appreciate the humor once back to his regular state and after binge watching the entire 178 episodes that made up Star Trek: The Next Generation. But right now, well, he was asleep so he was not thinking about much.
Truly though, it was the fact that Maddox was a feline animagus that had assisted him in maintaining some - if not most - of his humanity. Something that he could not, unfortunately, say about the rest of those who had suffered from the Minister's unhealthy urges. Perhaps he would get the A&C department head a nice greeting card later.
.....or not.
JOLTING awake, the cheetah went at a sprint while still half asleep and crashed right into the side of its cage with its HEAD.
No, Sonorus was certainly not needed but yes, he was awake.

Ooo, that had to hurt. Maddox cringed as the cheetah!man slammed into the side of the cage. Yikes. He almost felt it for him. Not to worry, that pain would be replaced by happy feelings momentarily.
"Good good, you're awake. I was prepared to send a well placed aguamenti. I know how much a fan of water you've become." No but seriously, it was good he was awake. This was important and the sooner they got this over with, the sooner it could all be put behind them. The man reached into his pocket and pulled out a vial. "One of several. The Potioneers had a breakthrough. What you're looking at is the answer to your furry little problem."
As best he could, Maddox conjured a bowl then poured the potion into it and slipped it into the cage. "We'll be beginning distribution within the hour. Shouldn't take more than a minute or two for you to get rid of this....." No, he couldn't think of the right pun and it was too exhausting to try. "The point is, drink this and you're cured. We'll be getting everyone back to normal. Happy ending. All that."
Have at it.

Have at it. Yes, it had heard. Thank you for that keen observation, Maddox.
This was always the degrading part of his current state, one which he sometimes found himself wishing a bit more of his humanity had left him so that he could forget that he was drinking out of a bowl. But still...if it meant that he wouldn't have to concern himself with coughing up fur balls anymore then let him at it.
Crawling forward with just a bit of reluctance, the man still had some pride, his cheetah tongue dipped into the liquid and he immediately let out a hiss of displeasure. Could have at least added something to make it not taste so horrendous. Even the Minister had at least had the decency to add his brew to food and drink to mask it.
Still, he proceeded to lap at the bowl until it was entirely gone...and then sat back on his hind legs to wait.
Had Maddox brought a towel or blanket or something? He did not fancy a transformation back to himself without one, if you know what we mean.

Seeing the man!cheetah fall back into his hind legs, Maddox was tempted to shift into his cat form so he too could be comfortable for the wait. It could’ve been anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes and if it was the latter, he’d rather not be standing with his hands in his pockets like this.
He waited patiently, in the end deciding he did still need to be a man for this change. How much longer would it be? He’d slotted a lot of time for this, and the less it took was the more he could have for that afternoon nap he’d been promising himself. Come on, Airey, don’t wanna stay a cat do you?
Maddox leaned against a nearby desk. He glanced down at his watch then back over at his friend.
“Don’t suppose you’d wanna hurry this along.” But, y’know, no rush. Just a suggestion.

Maddox leaned against a nearby desk. He glanced down at his watch then back over at his friend.
“Don’t suppose you’d wanna hurry this along.” But, y’know, no rush. Just a suggestion. The effects were subtle to start and the cheetah's hind legs twitched a bit to scratch as though trying to rid itself of a few pesky fleas. Though there were none to be had, thankfully. Soon the cause of the itching became apparently, it was the fur sloooowly slipping back beneath the skin a bit and thinning out to the fine fibers of the astronomer's. Curling up into a ball, partly for modesty reasons, an excess of fur pushed OUT of his skin and into a pile around him on the floor of the cage.
A minute or two later and the cheetah was no more.
"Sweet........solstice."
HACK HACK HACK....there was still residual fur in his throat that, well, the human stomach did not mix with. At all. However animals dealt with this absurdity.
"If I...throw up another fur ball...I'm entirely blaming you."
