Lab Safety vs. Superpowers

In an MIT laboratory, there is rumored to be a sign:

Warning: Do not look into
laser with remaining eye.

Then there is the attitude of the Domestic Panthers:

To hell with Lab Safety;
we want Superpowers!

And of course, they are willing to work for it. For example, here is Midnight, up where (he thinks) he belongs.

Midnight waking up from a nap atop the right speaker in Katherine's office.

However, Whitey demonstrated nearly 12 years ago what happens when you try to squeeze around the speaker.

Now on one hand, Whitey weighed 12 pounds versus Midnight's 7.  On the other hand, Midnight is still growing.

We're not sure this will end well.
