Waving away her apology with his opposite hand, Eugene wasn't really fussed. It was uncomfortable yes, but already less painful than it had been when he'd come in. "Yes and no, I might live?" Eugene quirked an amused eyebrow at her, wondering if he'd missed something or she hadn't heard his question. He figured the latter was more likely, but he would be a little put out if this was going to leave lasting damage. He wasn't short on scars, but he did like his job, in which mobility was pretty key.

She did seem to pick up in his interest in whatever it was that she'd just used on him and Eugene was glad to know he could get his hands on it. "Nasty side effects?" That was a drawback, obviously, but if he was cautious with it, perhaps it would come in handy. Not to mention when he was actually out in the field too. Anything could be useful when faced with an angry creature of some kind. Today was a prime example.
