Chapter Text
Povidone Iodine was not a normal person.
People knew this of course, she worked for a top secret department, was a mad scientist, and an odd doctor. Was she licensed? She didn’t even remember, but oh well! But these were all known things to her co workers, so they were normal about it. But they are so many things they don’t know about her. Like for example…
She is literally batshit INSANE.
Like INSANE.
That’s why she was so secretive about herself. If the crew knew what she was into, her favorite things to do, they would find her as an crazy, crazy, CRAZY cookie.
So despite being very lively, the SCOOP cookies knew very little about her.
This is why she kept distance from Black Vinegar, her coworker that she had piqued interest in. A crush, if you will.
“Hmph…OH SHIT!!!”
Povidone Iodine looked at the beaker she had spilled from daydreaming, and got immediately back to work.
“Right! I am a very important doctor with a VERY important job. NO MORE DAYDREAMING!!!”
Povidone Iodine wasn’t sure why, how, or when this crush started. All she knew was that when she looked at Black Vinegar, her heart would do little flips.
But then again, there was another reason.
She’d always wanted to experiment on the cookie body again, go reaaaaaal deep inside, see all the guts n’ stuff. But no one would ever voluntarily let her do that to them. It’s not like she can’t put them RIGHT back together, she’s done it before! But with a partner in the picture, she could easily convince—
“Iodine? You in there?”
She whipped her head around like an owl. “Black Vinegar! What brings you here?” Black Vinegar looks around at her…er…failed experiments. “Just….doing a deep clean around. Do you need me to clean the lab?” Povidone’s face turns slightly red. “Sure! As long as I can tag alongside you.” Black Vinegar sighs. “Sure. Just be careful.”
Povidone Iodine followed Black Vinegar around her lab, which Black Vinegar knew like the back of her hand. She knew where Povidone Iodine liked her stuff, where she didn’t want clean, and most importantly, the cleaning smells she liked. Povidone Iodine thought these acts were sweet. But no more the merely friendly acts. She was convinced that.
When Black Vinegar finished, she turned to face the other. “Well. I’m off to the next room.” Povidone Iodines grin slightly faltered. “ok! Bye Vinegar!” Vinegar smiles at her when she walks out the door. Povidone Iodine sighs. “I need to get this figured out,” she started.
“I will get rid of this crush if it’s the last thing I do!”
