Tim wasn't a psychiatrist, but he realized this kid likely had some form of ADHD or ADD. He'd heard of caffeine affecting people differently, helping them calm down instead of wiring them up. Tim shook his head in response to the caffeine question, chuckling a little as he did. "Nope. It actually does the opposite to me, gets me all hyper and excited. But that's okay. Everyone's different, and that's part of what makes the world as great as it is." Tim crouched down and looked at the bottle, then at the parking lot again. "You've got permission to be here, and if we reduce the yield a little it shouldn't make as large of an explosion. Disappointing, sure, but a little safer. We can do a smaller one right now today, and I'll give you my phone number and email. You can have your dad get in touch with me and we can meet and set up a time to do a really big one. Plus, I could probably bring a few other fun things from my lab out. How's that sound?" Honos Black

"Huh...yeah it does that with my dad too. We'retryingta change my dosage becauseIgothroughit really fast, but the psychiatrist don' believe my dad. Said that I'm jus' fibbin' or somethin'. Dad's no' happy. But! He did give me blanket permission on-on-on drinking caffeine. Just capping it to 5 cans though. It'svoidduringfinals though." He babbled, hovering near Tim. "We's can always do a big one later! And we'scanmakeitcolorfulandbright!" He blurted out, now sort of hanging on Tim. "An' Iwasgonna ask for your number. Why email, though? I mean, could'vefigureditout through not-not-not legal means. But asking is more polite and stuff." Honos pulled out his phone and handed it to Tim, chin hooked on his shoulder. "Can I bring my sentient slime next time?" Timothy Smith

Tim couldn't help but laugh a little bit at Honos' energy. "Well, I wanted to give your folks options for getting in touch with me. I keep pretty on top of my email so, y'know, options." He punched the information in and handed the phone back. "We can totally make it bigger. I love this kind of thing. I help do a lot of the science and research and development stuff at Aegis." He cocked an eyebrow at the mention of sentient slime. That sounded incredibly interesting. "Sure. I'd love to see it. Him. Her? Them? Whatever it prefers to go by, I guess." Tim picked up the bottle they were looking at and put a carefully determined amount of water in it. "All right, you know what to do. Let's set this thing off." Honos Black

He nodded and pocket his phone after shooting Tim a text. "He/they like-like-like me. Made them when I was 5!" He grinned, squatting and watching Tim pour water in it.
He never thought to use hand sanitizer and was excited to see what'll happen with it added to the equation. He should try other flammable methods next time. Not gas or propane, but like hairspray and the like. Maybe he should see if he could control the fire on a can of hairspray, maybe make it really big or really small. Or really hot? He mentally jots that down for tomorrow's session with Denny's parking lot. Not this one, but the one across town. Best not to get caught by them Aegis folks again. This one is nice, but he doesn't trust all of them to be as nice as this one.
"Tim-Tam, you're invitedtamy-ta my chaos buildin'" He blurted out before his hair burst into fire. "Are you-are you gonna lightitnow? Or-or-or 'm I gon-gonna light it?" He asked, even as he reached a fire-covered hand towards the bottle in his excitement.

Tim grinned at Honos. "Light it up, buddy" This kid's excitement was infectious. Tim had expected this night to be pretty boring, another long night of not trying to sleep to avoid the nightmares, but this... this was nice. "So, what... what's your "chaos building?" Where's it at?" He put his hand over the flaming hair and absorbed the heat and light from it to keep it down. "Careful, bud, don't want to set the Denny's on fire." Honos Black

Honos beamed and slapped the bottle, not at all paying attention to the hand near his head. He also didn't pay attention to the warning and only focused on the bottle, which happened to explode into flaming chunks of dry ice and plastic. This got him giggling and laughing brightly with chunks of fire in his hair glowing a bluish-white. He truly loved the reaction and wanted to do another one.
"Chaos building is overinthe ab-abandoned buildin' district" He answered absentmindedly, as he remembered hearing the question just as he slammed his hand on the bottle. He grabbed another emptied bottle and started to set it up like the one prior, wanting to do another one. "'S'wear I do bigger things 'n' stuff withou' wakin'uppapa." He looked up at Tim and smiled. "Can I have the-the-the-can I have the hand goop, please?"

Tim made a mental note to check that entire building over and make sure it was safe, that there weren't any structural weaknesses or any criminal elements that would give Honos trouble. The last thing he wanted is some kid like this, excited about science and making cool stuff like dry ice bombs, to get hurt by some asshole looking for a thrill. "You'll definitely have to show me later. Here you go, bud." He passed him the hand sanitizer, but didn't let go right away. "With this one let's make sure we're a little bit further behind our little barricade, okay? Eyes are pretty great things to have and keep in working order." Tim grinned, watching the excited kid set up the next science bomb. "Who's your pop? I should try and meet him sometime." Honos Black

Honos reached for the hand goop bottle with a wide grin but stiffened when Tim didn't let go right away. He didn't like that. Not one bit. Is this how he dies? From a cool science guy who's gonna shank him over some hand goop and then take all his stuff and run? No, but he's a superhero. But he's also a stranger. He wouldn't stab some random kid at 3 am would he? ...Nah, he wouldn't. Pretty sure he'd get in big trouble here if his papa didn't get his hands on Tim.
This mental thought process took only a few seconds, ending not long before Tim let go of the hand sanitizer and gave him the warning about protecting the eyes and having a barricade. He's not wrong, but also he's a bit of a stickler. Granted, Honos was wearing his goggles, but they were on top of his head and not over his eyes. And he did concede in the point of sensitive eyes needing to be kept safe and working right. But still. He's a bit of a stickler.
Honos hummed and slapped the goop on the bottle, mind going hundreds of miles with the added information he gained in the past half hour. He chid himself for telling Tim about his Chaos Building, but it's too late to really do much about it. Maybe he should just act like he didn't tell Tim and just never bring there. Yeah, that'll work. He doubt the man would actually find him again. He's got to be really busy during the daytime and he could find another Dennys during the nighttime, should he really need another Dennys. Maybe he should stick with his Chaos Building. Eh, future him can deal with that.
Honos got up and happily sat the bottle off to the side and went to grab his backup goggles and two cans of the death water. He cracked the water open and drank some of it while handing Tim the extra goggles. "You want some?" Honos asked, holding out the extra can. "Becauseyoushould hydrate before you die-drate." Honos grinned. "Healthy brains makes the games or somethinglikethat. Don'really remember what the sayinistobehonest."

Tim smiled and took the can. "Hydrate or die-drate. Our bodies are machines just like any other. Gotta keep em maintained. I'd imagine with your powers you probably dry out and burn off calories a lot faster than most too." Tim went and sat by Honos' barricade and held up his hand, generating a solid light wall for the pair of them to hide behind. "That should give us some more protection. When you're ready, light the hand sanitizer and drop in the dry ice, then book it over here!" This was a voluntary patrol, and wasn't really necessary. He had time to chill with this kid and make sure he was being safe, and honestly he was pretty damn clever. This kid had a future, and he'd have to try and look him up later to make sure he was going to be able to make the most of it if he wanted to. "Hydration is important but don't sit there drinking water all day, I wanna see stuff go boom too." Honos Black

Honos held up a fire-covered hand and paused when he saw the solid light wall. He touched the wall with his fire hand and was thoroughly amazed by it. He almost wanted to abandon the exploding bottles to focus on that but shook himself when Tim called at him to light it.
He slapped the bottle with fire, dropped in the dry ice, and ran to Tim, cackling. He watch it explode and yelled in excitement, dancing and hair bursting into fire when he watched the dry ice catch alit in the explosion. It was glorious. He adored it, 100%. He was about to ask Tim to make another when he heard his name get called.
"Octavius!" A man with glittery dirty blond hair pulled up in a messy bun and in a pair of jeans and hoodie appeared, climbing out of a pick-up truck. The man looked like Honos, if he was at least two decades older. "I just got off. Time to go home, bud. Surge, nice to see you with my son. I hope there are no problems with him. Or myself." The man spoke, sounding tired and distrustful of Tim.
Honos gathered everything, excited to tell his papa everything that happened in the few short hours he was out here for. "Papa! You would not believe the night I just had! Bye Uncle Tim-Tam, I gotta go." Honos paused and hugged Tim before running over to the elder man with his things, already babbling away everything that happened. The man waved at Tim and guided Honos to the truck nearby and helped the younger load his things in before soon driving off, leaving Tim in the parking lot with the destroyed remains of 2-liter bottles.
