As soon as Eric the postdoc entered the lab, he saw it clearly. Directly in front of him was his PI, blathering on about the papers they were working on, but Eric was laser focused on the two men behind him: it was Sting and Bono, smartly dressed in lab coats and wraparound sunglasses, and carefully using a dropper to precisely titrate liquified stardust into a petri dish to create some of the greatest hits of the 80s and 90s.

Steve gaped as he entered the chemistry lab, while Professor Snourt was laying out an impossibly complex proof at the board his back was turned and he didn’t notice Ted and Dave using chemicals to mix up some truly potent and wild music magic.

Class was dismissed and a sunny afternoon beckoned outside, but time seemed suspended in the classroom. Dave obsessively scratched “equations” on the blackboard and Sally stood frozen in front of her titrations, while Joel and Bub donned x-ray specs and struck up a conversation with the flaming skull.
