>No, the odds of that happening were slim. [She says, in a complete deadpan, taking the bottle out.] I can't imagine it is, given that people willingly put it on their hands--
[That said, its pungent odor causes her to lean away from the bottle.] --but to be safe, let's not... ingest it.
[She rounds to Karkat's side, dipping the brush in the bottle and trying to paint around his fingers, figuring that if she can free his skin on the sides she can work underneath them.]
[It does seem to be working! Little by little, she's able to get more of Karkat's skin from the candy cane, applying more of the nail polish remover underneath his palms.] I have no idea.
The smell is even worse from up close, I assure you. Some sort of chemicals?
I have no idea. That would entirely depend on what you were trying to get blood out of. [She says, somewhat flatly.
She also can't get all the way underneath his palms, so she just tries to let it drip down.] That's all I can do for now, I think. We just need to work on getting your hands off slowly.

Maybe work them back and forth a little?

[ which is true! there aren't! but that's also not the kind of thing you say when you are innocent, so. ignore him, naoto.
he will do as he told though? he moves his hand around as much as he can. ]

What are you doing. [She says, kind of flatly.
Honestly, she thinks he may just be being kind of doofy and dumb; she certainly doesn't think he's the type to harm anyone.
But there's always a chance.]

[ he knows exactly what she actually means with her question, but he likes to be a dick and messing with naoto is funny? he enjoys it. ]

As your aspiring law enforcement officer friend, I feel I need to ask you to... elaborate on your earlier statement.

I assure you that I do not get stabbed anywhere near as much as I did in my memories, so there's nothing to worry about, dude.
