So who should you go talk to first?

Kruya the mad scientist

For an unknown reason you suddenly remember the other girl, Kruya, whom you met just a minute ago. You thought that she'd be up here, but apperently not. The fact that all people here look most interesting, gives her, the one not here, a really strong feeling of intrestment.

What might she be up to - you hope, that she's not in the bathroom, and that all your excitement was useless.

Well, after going away from the uprising party and decending downstairs you find the scientist girl in the kitchen. She's apperently fixing up a bowl or two of an unknown glowing liquid, the whole science thing really goes well with her here.

"What's up. Why are you down here by yourself?" The exploded looking brown haired girl raises her head and looks at you bitterly.

"I could ask you the same question. Did you want to talk to me, or what?" Yeah, your approach was kinda corny - Kruya looks like her work was interrupted.

"Eh, sorry. I just, thought that we never got to meet that well earlier, so..." You act more coy than you should.

She gets back to work with a concentrated expression. "That is fine, I'll just double-task, so your name was March, right?" Her voice is a bit faded, when she looks at multiple recipes and formulas and measures all kinds of chemicals.

"Yeah, um. Can I help you Kruya? You look... stressed." Her face is a lot sharper than yours which matches her slimer body. She's also taller than you, but beacause of her body, propably the same weight.

"Y...you, think so? I'm not stressed...not at all. There's nothing I should be stressed about. It's not as if, I couldn't finnish this project before the glow show, huh?" She, blushed?

"Uhm, there's something, isn't there? Really, I can help, I don't even like partying all that much." You are half lying - you can help but you do like partying too.

Kruya looks at you and sighs, then she takes a notebook out of her breast pocket. She quickly lists something right off her mind and rips the page off and holds it out to you. "Bring me these ingredients. I was told, that every one of those should be found somewhere in here. I just do not have enough time for that, so I would...be greatful, should you fetch these for me." She looks away and fixes her broken glasses.

There's five things in the list:

"A toad's head, a rat's carcas, a snake's tail, a crow's talon and an ox's testicle." You cringe and almost drop the note.

"Ew, what the fuck?! No way I'm getting you all this. What are you even planing to do with these?" As you shiver in disgust you find the scientist girl smirking. "I won't tell you, March. Find the ingredients or help me carry these things up to the dance floor once I'm done, those are the ways, that you can help me with - otherwise, go party with the others."

So she's serious, you can't wrap your head around why she exactly needs all that, but maybe it's all just for the role, right? It's useless to go back to party now, so maybe you should make a choise.

What should you do?
