Another day, another drabble. I can't believe I'm at the halfway point! Tomorrow things will begin to kick up. Actually, next week gets pretty exciting, and definitely AU!
Order
"Not there!" Leo cried out as he grabbed the rest tube from Skye. "That's not where it goes!"
Skye huffed and rolled her eyes. "Why not? It's just a test tube."
"No, it's one of Simmons's test tubes," Leo replied, pointing to the rim of red glass at the opening of the test tube. "This one goes in a different cabinet."
"Why though?" Skye crossed her arms and looked at him questioningly as he went to go put the test tube in the correct cabinet. "Why do you even need color-coded test tubes in the first place?"
"Because when something comes in, Simmons and I don't always have time to look at the colors on the rims to see if they're the right ones," he explained to her. "By putting them in the correct cabinets, we know which ones are the ones we need."
"That doesn't answer my second question. What's the difference between using one with a red rim and one with a green rim? Or even a blue one"
Leo sighed. "Blue is mainly for chemicals. Green is used for samples we take from the surrounding environment, like plants and soil and such Red is what Simmons uses for human biological samples."
"So like blood and other stuff from people?" Skye paused and pursued her lips. "So you use this system to make sure you're grabbing whatever chemical you've got cooking instead of a test tube of blood or something."
Leo nodded. "Exactly. Now let's get the rest of this cleaned up."
He walked back over to the sink with Skye and turned on the water. "Pass me something to clean."
"Is that an order?" She teased, handing him a beaker.
"You wanted something to do," Leo chuckled as he began to scrub it down.
