“Where is everyone?” Janine asked, clunking her way into the firehouse on her thick clogs. Egon barely looked up from his equipment. He had nothing really important going on but it was important to look as if he did. He liked Janine but she had a tendency to prattle on and otherwise distract him when he actually was busy.

“Ray and Winston have three big jobs they need to complete today,” he replied, affecting the air of perfect distractedness. “Venkman is off chasing Dana.”

“Mmm, should he be harassing a client?” Janine leaned against the counter.

“I’m sure she’s more than a match for him.” Egon smirked.

“Anyhow, i brought you something.” Janine dug in her baggy jean purse and came up with a Petri dish. “I hope you don’t mind me borrowing one of your food plates.”

“Agar plate,” he corrected, giving her his full attention.

She turned it over to him. It was covered with a dark grey fuzzy growth. “I remembered you said you collected molds, spores and funguses.”

Egon blinked. He had been kidding about that, mostly. He had never considered Janine would go get him something. “Thanks.” It had to be one of the top twenty weirdest things anyone had ever given him and it would be rude to ignore it so Egon got out a slide and some potassium hydroxide. With a wire loop, he delicately transferred a bit of the growth to the slide and hit it with the KOh. He peered at it through the nearby microscope.

“You look so serious. I wasn’t sure if you’d like it.” Janine moved closer to him.

“I have to look at it,” Egon replied. “It’s all in the name of science." He scowled. “Where did you get this, Janine?”

“There was a leak in my apartment complex. It was growing along the wall in the hall.”

“I’d move,” he said, meaning it. “It’s Stachybotrys chartarum, a particularly nasty mold.”

“Talk nerdy to me,” Janine purred, launching herself at him. She ricocheted Egon off the counter, freewheeling into the center of his lab before her high heeled clogs destroyed her center of balance.

Egon barely steadied them. “Janine!”

Any of his other protests were cut short by the pressure of her lips on his. Egon had to give her this; Janine knew what she wanted and wasn’t afraid to try and get it. Her huge-lensed glasses pressed into his skin as she devoured his mouth. All the scientific knowledge he had really was of no help here. The logic he prided himself on had no place as her hands found their way inside his clothing.

“Talk nerdy to me,” she insisted against, loosening his belt.

As his fingers fumbled with her bra, Egon did just that but with most of his blood rocketing south it was hard to think. By the time he was touching Janine’s hot flesh, now rosy with passion, he had broke down into Tom Lehrer’s The Element Song . With every element passing through his lips, utterly off-key, Janine found new levels of furor.

Egon was still on the lab floor, a bit dazed as Janine dressed and clunked her way back to her desk, a happy smile on her face. He had to admit Venkman was right about something; some women found science sexy.
