Scan? But SECOND’s training
wheels take their own initiative:
broad-spectrum chemical sensors
built into the fingertips, according
to the graphical thumbnails
popping up on BUD. I saccade the
right dropdowns, switch to tactical
—remind myself it won’t actually
be me touching this shit—and lay
on the hands.
The N2’s fingertips leave soft
depressions in the alien snot.
Almost instantly lists of ingredients
start scrolling down my brain:
chemical formulae I somehow
recognize as organic even though I
can barely remember high school
chemistry. Amine groups.
Polysaccharides. Glycolipids.
