As long as you are aware of the situation, that is what matters most.

[ grumble grumble grumble! ]

I'm aware I had a pastel scare and Warren's like, one of the only people who didn't give me a diaper full of crap about it. Right now that's the only part I care about.

[ said in a slightly resigned, 'yep I should have expected this' sort of voice, ]

Eiffel I have no idea what you mean by 'pastel scare.'

[littletonoidea]

The baby thing. Look, never mind-- there's no pregnancy scare, you can put your freakin' surgery kit away. Take a goddamn chill pill about getting your grubby little nerd hands on my bodily fluids.

[tarakan]

I was offering partly out of help, you know. Access to your blood was simply added bonus.

[littletonoidea]

Which was it you wanted more, seriously. To help or my samples?

[tarakan]

[ a paaaaaaaaaaause. ]

Does the answer matter?

[littletonoidea]

[And a hefty sigh.]

Okay, Doc? A good person does it purely to help the person. Not because they'll get something out of it. It's called 'not having an ulterior motive'.

[tarakan]

But why can't it be both? Yes, I do want to help you and make sure that you are not father of child that may or may not exist. But I also want sample of your blood. The two can both be true at same time!
