"What is the process?" Peggy asked, rolling over in the sheets.
Valery propped herself up. "What do you mean?"
"Abraham and Howard are insistent that you are the key ingredient."
"It's created by my blood. Parts of my genetics enable the transmission of my abilities."
"All of your abilities?"
"No, thank heavens. I've attempted to finalize the formula so that it is manageable. This will be the first subject since Johann."
"How many of your abilities does Schmidt have?"
Valery got up from the bed, picking up her clothing. "He had more. I … separated the nonphysical traits from his body."
"Will the next subject have nonphysical traits?"
She paused on a button. "I have no way of knowing that." She shook her thoughts free before leaning over and kissing Peggy.
