{Later that day}
Amelia, Gustav, and I... plus a walking cigarette- made our way down the desolate foundation halls, fluorescent lights flickering ominously.
"Where are we going Dr. Buck???" Gustav says with eager only an intern would have.
"Well, what have I said about asking too many questions" She sternly replies with.
"Too not to ask them..." Usefv looked at his feet.
Agent mucus pipes up, walking closer towards Buck and I.
"Come on Amelia, be nice to the kid" My throat closed and her eyes narrowed.
"Don't even try."
Agent Green laughed at his attempt at continuing his conversation from earlier. I restrained my frustration by digging deeper holes into my lab coat's pocket. We made a turn around the corner, the amnestics lab down the end of the hall.
"You won't need to come here often, but you might need to retrieve materials, in that case, your key card will give you access to this room" I say, turning to... Raswal.
Dr Buck swipes her card and the heavy doors slide to the side. We all walk inside, the room littered with test tubes, and other scientific instruments.
"This also happens to be where a few of our staff's offices are located, including my own." I point towards a door near an amnestics lab. "If you have any concerns regarding the substance ask me, i'll be in there."
"If not, you can always ask me; although i'd like it if you kept questions to a minimum." Amelia added.
"Oooo that's so cool Dr. Blanks! I can't believe you get to work with such interesting things" Gustav said with a naive smile.
This kid has taste.
"Well if Blanks can do it i'm sure it can't be that hard." Green snickered, getting the last laugh.

Silence shook the rooms tiles and wall frames.
Agent boogers words stung, worse than a hornet in spring. I really tried, and had put hours of researching and endless practise, only to deal with people like him.
Amelia sternly shot her signature shut up before I made you look at the Agent before saying, "Agent. Need I remind you that amnestics are considered one of the most powerful tools in use by the Foundation. "
She folds her arms.
"Great care and proper training is mandatory in the handling and application of amnestics in an appropriate manner."
Her gaze tenses as she takes a step closer to the man.
"I think it would also do you kindly to not speak about our superior in such a manner, lead alone one of the smartest people at this site."
"Thank you Dr. Buck, I couldn't have said it better" I added, smiling a little; even if she was being sour at least it was to stick up for my sorry self.
"Alrightly then. I get it."
Agent Green, with his fragile masculinity intact, dismissed himself from my area of work.

"If you have any questions, now would be a good time to ask them, Gustav." Dr. Buck said, nodding at me.
"Well, what are they exactly? Like what are they used for?"
"An amnestic is an amnesia-inducing agent that can take many different forms. For the purposes of the Foundation, it is mainly used in suppressing sensitive information by expunging intangible memories. In most cases, they are applied post-incident." You re-site to the newbie.
"So it's kinda like the thing from men in black?" He said, eyes wide.
"Do you mean the thing they do with the pen?" I quizzed.
"Ye-"
"Gustav." Dr. Buck lifted an eye brow and stared at him.
"Oh,,, uhhh... Well isn't there a problem with this kind of stuff? You know like amnestic abuse?" The guys glasses tinted themselves.
"The abuse of amnestics is strictly prohibited and will result in disciplinary action, demotion, or both", Amelia adds.
"We have an Ethics Committee Amnestic Review Board for things like this, if you believe there has been any kind of mishap. In all cases, the Ethics Committee has the final word on approval and decisions regarding amnestic use and misuse respectively." I tell him, "Or again, you could come to me and file your concern, your suggestion would reach the ethics committee faster that way"
"Is that because you're super famous inside of the foundation?!"
I-
"Gustav. Please refrain from asking any more, erm tedious questions. Dr. Blanks and I are rather busy women", Amelia said, nudging my shoulder. We smiled at each other and shared witty glances.
A voice came from behind.
"I guess it kinda is like the thing from men in black newbie." A man with a sparkling necklace said, half sighing, half smiling.
"Amelia, Y/n.. and?"
"Gustav! My name is Gustav sir!", the intern said with a sickening amount of enthusiasm.
"Jack, I didn't know you were in the office today." You said as you got a pat on the shoulder from him.
The two of you chatted for around five minutes, occasionally including Buck in on the conversation. She seemed more busy staring daggers at Jack. You all had finished talking by the time he started to head inside of his office.
