Something slithered out from beneath the clipboard and coffee mug Ezro had sat down. No, actually, it looked as if it absorbed the clipboard and coffee mug. Sil just watched as it grew into a hideous, redheaded, man-wahlru thing with a fedora perched atop its disgusting form and began to moonwalk out the door after saying something about radiation.
"Goddammit, Al," Sil muttered. She had an idea where this abomination had come from. I knew I should have stopped him back then, she thought, remembering when he strode past her with that mysterious canister three days ago. I thought he was one of the few people on this ship with any sense, but I guess not. "2398, activate sanitation protocols, code red," she said and one of her droids instantly sprang into action. It skittered after the slime-monster, and hosed it down with a flamethrower.
