Research & Development (CK2)

If he were to turn her down, she'd keep following this path, except with poorer conditions and even less supervision. She was a time bomb, waiting to tick down and unleash some horrible monstrosity onto the world. His only real choice was whether she would explode in conditions he could control, or ones where he could not.
Our boss is a keeper, but we will need to be careful about how our character develops, and our actions. Our boss has us pegged as a mad scientist type, and to be fair, he is right going by our characterization. We will need to keep in mind the potential consequences of our actions, especially since Xantos Sable is going to keep a close eye on us to try and short-circuit, or at least control the disaster he predicts we would end up unleashing. We will need to be careful with any major research, since I doubt we have much in the way of protections besides our skeletal friend. It seems like, to understand potential risks, we may need to rely on reading between the lines, and maybe invisitext, thanks to our characters lack of grounding in such things,( hopefully we can rectify that without a disaster).

Edit:I think this plan is probably safe to start with
[X] Plan Fluffy v2

  • [X] Plan Fluffy v2
    -[X] Analyze Fluffikins| So cute, but so dangerous. [DC: 40] [+4 scientists]
    -[X] Let the lab analyze Calcium| He won't like being poked and prodded, but there's a lot you'd like to learn. You Raised him, but you still have no idea how he really works. [DC: 60] [+10 scientists]
    -[X] Study Worldrender| You can barely lift the thing without Calcium's help, but you know that it's powerful and ancient, just like him. [DC: 50] [+6 scientists]
    -[X] Extend the Labs: Build a new extension to the laboratory. Build:
    --[X] Special Containment Unit: An expensive box that keeps dangerous stuff from getting out. In theory. [DC: 0. Roll will determine progress]

    -[X] Meet with other Department Heads| Your's is not the only Department in the company, and you'll be competing with the others for funds and other resources. It'd probably be a good idea to meet with some of them.
