(UST? I think you forgot a letter XD aaannyways...)
Matthew tilted his head from left to right and back to the other side, rinse and repeat. His neck had decided to kink up because he had spent far too long looking into a microscope trying to determine if Cody had brought him something useful or utter craptactular. It was starting to appear as the later. Pressing his right hand to the bridge of his spine and pressing down, the blonde tilted his head back, heard a pop and tilted it back down, hearing the second pop. Putting down the pen he was writing with, Matthew then pressed the palms of his hands to either side of his throat, fingers interlocking at the base of his shoulders. He then added pressure and only stopped because the door to his lab opened and he let go.
"I didn't think to see you here." He hummed as his hands returned to the pen and dial on the microscope. Yet, he wasn't really surprised to see the spy in his lab. This did mean the tall man wanted something. Dropping the pen again, Matt picked up the glass from the scope and took it apart, deciding he was done with it. After that he moved to his plants and waited for the visitor, no intruder, to tell him why he was there.

[Yes, Unresolved Sexual Tension. ; ) Haha, what did I miss?]
Ivan allowed himself a small smirk as the doctor peered at him through his glasses. He could almost imagine that Matthew was glaring at him.
He leaned against the door frame. "You cannot fathom that I might come for the stimulating conversation?" he asked as Matthew turned to his plants.

(You didn't put the dots in-between so I thought you misspelt lust XD)
"Stimulating conversation?" Matthew let off a small, mocking laugh as he rolled his eyes to himself. "From a mad man with plants, I believe you need to look over your life choices, Mr. Ivan."
He started to examine, touch and water his plants. He had little else to do but wasn't quite willing to show that he was in need for something to do. If he did then Lily would find him and make him be an actual docor to people. Ugh, other people.

(Ooh, got it. Yep, lust too. Hahaha...)
He stepped, in letting the automated door close behind him, and stood just to the side with his back against the wall where he could see the whole room easily. It was common sense, really.
Ivan's smirk grew at Matthew's laugh and he shrugged, though he knew that Matthew could not see him and watched as the doctor cared for his plants. His fingers gentle and caressing.
"I have spent many years doing that already," he said, letting a little ruefulness into his voice. "You may be a 'mad man', but I have dealt with many types of persons so I care not, and you often have interesting things to say."
'This coming from one psychologically disturbed person to another', he thought dryly. 'I suppose it is not surprising that we keep company sometimes.'

The change in tone of the Russian caused him to turn and cock the brow. He then made a noise and turned back to his plants. "What if one of these days I run out of interesting things to say? I am just just one person, my knowledge only goes so far." Even though he was trying to further that knowledge, an in almost desperate manner.
"Besides, what if I was doing something extremely important and by talking to me you've distracted me and now the whole ship is going to be sick because we were trying to keep it on the down low?" He was of course being faciesious.

The exaggerated scenario that Matthew suggested helped Ivan to shrug away his encroaching dark thoughts. He grinned, a quick flash of his teeth. "If there really were such a crisis I would have known about it yesterday and therefore would not be here. I can also see that you're restless, so I know I'm not interrupting anything too important. Unless you happen to have a previously remembered engagement?"
Ivan leaned back against the wall, crossing his arms. "In any case, back to a stimulating conversation. I find your knowledge considerable. You have put the Federation's grants to good use since you joined. Your studies on the hydrotoxins of the plants of the Salmissran System is still regarded as one of the authorities on the subject."

"Mostly because it's the only authority on the subject." Matthew laught. He supposed Ivan was correct though and he was good at his job. That didn't mean his mind never ran out of things to say or do however. The blonde briefly wondered if it was a good thing or not that the spy knew so much about his habits. Then again, the man's occupation made him all that more observant to the patterns and mannerisms of people around him. To that, Matthew saw interest, he wanted to know just how much of himself Ivan seemed to have knowledge over.
Oh, but how could he provoke the answers out of him? What questions could he pose? Would being straight forward work better than being coy? No, he didn't think he would keep interest if he was frank with the tall man before him.
Cracking his neck slightly he walked over to his guest, "I would offer you a place to sit then for more of this talk, but alas everything is covered in potted plants."

'Stiff,' he thought as the doctor popped the vertebrae in his neck once more. The man was peering at him, his violet eyes narrowed slightly. He was focused on Ivan now, something had caught his attention.
"So I have observed," Ivan said with a glance around the cluttered room. He smiled slightly as Matthew approached him. "Have you made any advances in that field since your original experiments? I know only a few others have delved into subject."
Matthew stood just within arms reach, his weight on one leg, his hands in the pockets of his lab coat.

"Not much, I was brought to work here after all. Alfred was stationed here and it was but natural I follow." He replied he looked up at the other from the top of Ivan's head, down to his foot then back up once more. He was observing what was different with the man today. He was also plainly assessing him for mating purposes. He shifted his weight to the other foot and repeated the action.
"I will leave my work in the hands of new scientists, not that I really have faith in them, but perhaps I could move on to more unknown topics, like finding a one sided magnet." He hummed, somewhere there had to be, they've disproved other laws, but no one had done the forced that come in pairs disproving.

"I see. Do you still follow the current research, then?" Ivan's eyes narrowed slightly in introspection. Then he smiled slightly, his posture relaxed.
Matthew's gaze was discerning, assessing. Ivan looked down at him, wondering if the doctor would make his thoughts verbal. Although, he was certain the doctor's thoughts and his were not following the same line.

Matthew voicing his thoughts? What was Ivan smoking? If he thought that Matt would willingly voice how he found the height of Ivan to be alluring because with the difference between them it would be the best for a rocking motion? Or that he found Ivan's hair that perfect length for tugging and demanding with? He wouldn't even phathom the notion of voicing how the cold look that always seemed to don in Ivan's eyes sent shivered down his spinal rifts and made him want to see if he could warm them.
Hah, fat chance, those were private thoughts.
The relax in the spy's stance told the scientist that Ivan didn't mind being ogled nor that he found anything wrong with the lavender eyes appraising him as though he was a fine jewel. His mouth spoke as is brain processed about 60Gs of information, "Vaguely. I lost interest in the subject as I....Found something more intriguing and new to theorise and explain."

A cigarette wouldn't be bad right now Ivan mused. He thought of the bag of rolled cigarettes he'd made the night before and the lighter in the multi-purpose tool in his pocket. With a small amount of regret Ivan put aside his previous intentions in coming to the lab. Matthew seemed to have other things on his mind, the flash of lust in his expression telling Ivan that he would not be getting the information he'd wanted. But information gathering had been just an excuse to come here, if he was honest. At least conversation with Matthew would be interesting. His smile broadened under the attention. He would maintain control this time.
"Oh, yes?" he prompted.

Matthew raised his hand to his mouth, running an index finger across his own chapped lips in a pendulum motion. He was processing, and assessing the current chess game he always held when he was dealing with the man before him. After a moment he snapped his fingers, looking appeased with himself and pointing the finger previously rubbing his lips upward before gesturing assumed north (On spaceships, who could really tell due north?)
"Patches," he said. "Making patches, like the ones I need. Only, these ones will be used by units of war to jump start their hearts but slow the flight or fight instinct."
Moving away from the Russian he then opened a drawer that wasn't bound shut by overgrown plants and fished around until he got what he needed, his awake patch. He hadn't changed it in well, more than the patch was worth so he was currently working on luck. He then traversed the way back to his visitor before he held up the patch. "I need your help."

Ivan waited, sheltered in his act of nonchalance and crossed arms, as the man came to some kind of decision. What games they played, but to what end he wasn't quite sure. There was no malice in it. At least not that he could tell. They both just liked manipulative machinations, they played for the game, and a few other stakes
At Matthew's pronouncement and explanation about the patches. Ivan raised an eyebrow slightly, to show that he was intrigued. Drug supplement experiments had been conducted by armed forces for years throughout Earth and Intergalactic history. That was part of the reason he had never wanted to join the Armed Division; why be someone's puppet when you could hold the strings in your hand?
Ivan uncrossed has arms as Matthew held up the patch. "Do you feel as if you will collapse again?" he asked. His gaze going to Matthew's face and body, looking for signs of sudden fatigue. He felt wary; the doctor was, above all, an inquiring mind.
