"I... can't say I'm terribly fond of that ominous overtone there, sir." Cedric's brow furrows in consideration, letting out a few audible hums before he hopes down from the chair, gathering his painters kit and resecuring it to his belt.
"But I can't deny my bit of curiousity here either. I didn't come to Waterdeep just to sit around, after all! Where to?"
Soar asks to hold onto the antidote while she takes the potion. Never can be too careful, she thinks to herself. She's ready to be stronger - she also doesn't understand mad science and has listened to too many stories from bards.
To Soar, "I understand wanting the antidote close, but I'm worried you will accidentally crush the flask with your newfound super-strength; I only have just enough for one dose per person, you see. I think it's best if I hold onto it; the moment I notice something go awry I will get it to you, I promise."
(Still waiting on Erik, I don't want to start without him getting a chance to say something, since he got the adventure started as a "slow-group"; those who are at the laboratory can look around, or flashback to being still at the Yawning Portal to interact with the newcomers while you wait.)
(I'm totally up to you guys doing the Barrows quest before the Super Strength quest, especially since unlike most quests the Super Strength quest doesn't lend itself to players leaving and coming back freely. I guess I'm dropping a bit of a hint on what may happen in the Super Strength quest with that, hehe.)
Flashing back to the Yawning Portal, Soar will say, "I'm sorry what? Achilles' tendon? You all never did tell me what you did last night. I wanted to come with but I missed you all leaving. Ignis what happened?"
Kierro: "They probably aren't too bad, but if you say so. Thanks, Jal. You won't regret it."

Jal replies, "Do you want your Achilles tendons split, Kierro?"

"IT WAS ONE TIME, JAL! ONE TIME!" Ignis shouts after hearing his ally's question.
Kierro: "Not really."
Jal says, "Then stay near."

Asmodai chuckles after hearing Ignis' response.

"It's not like the bastard didn't deserve it..." Ignis mutters.
"So. Where ARE we going anyway?" Cedric looks over between the two before him and the group further off in the tavern.
To Soar, "I understand wanting the antidote close, but I'm worried you will accidentally crush the flask with your newfound super-strength; I only have just enough for one dose per person, you see.

(The fast group should say they did a different quest before this one)

Jal says, "We are in a laboratory. My friends are here to test a strength potion."

(I would be ready for the barrow quest)

(Possible for Soar to do both? May be too much to ask but the barrow was her first choice.)
(It is very much possible it seems)
