Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

"Cough! Yes, but not entirely."

"What are quasi-crystals?"

"Quasi-crystals are a type of crystal structure where the atoms are arranged in a pattern that doesn't repeat periodically, sort of a halfway house between a crystal and an amorphous structure. The guy who discovered them, Dan Shechtman, he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2011 for it."

"Oh, I see... Wait a minute! Nobel what Prize?"

"Chemistry Prize."

"Uh! Aren't we supposed to be interviewing a grad student in biology today?"

How did we end up on physics and chemistry?

"Mr. Reynolds already mentioned that his next question would not be limited to biology." "Yikes! Honestly, this question is a bit tough for an undergrad."

"She answered the earlier questions pretty well, just bad luck getting pinned by Owen..."

"Is it difficult?" Owen spoke up lightly, "Of course, you can choose not to answer."

Roseanne looked up, locking eyes with him: "Got a whiteboard and marker?"

The crux of the matter-"with data support"!
