"...that's why I need someone to test it on!" she suggests.
She had a point there, and you knew this extended beyond mere guinea pig tests. Also, judging by the way Miss Blake was so wary of the radiation counts tells you that it must contain more than enough to kill a guinea pig in the process, although pretty much any living thing might experience at least some side effects. But despite your rationale the sweating in your palms proves the very element you had been trying to avoid letting yourself realize; you desperately wanted to have your teacher test it out on you, regardless of the illogical action that could be.
But however dangerous it might be, you were still no coward. If Miss Blake asked you in here she must need you for the test subject, a job you were willing to oblige to. Background fears lay in widepsread niches across your brainscape, but if only you could gather the resolve to just ask her and get it all over with before you regret something. Luvky for you though, your teacher was always one to get to the point:
"The reason you're seeing this is because you are the student I trust the most, and I would just be the happiest woman on the planet if you would volunteer to help me out with this. It would do wonders for any extra credits you need... or a letter of recommendation for that matter."
And so the temptress continues. But what could it hurt? Miss Blake was more than capable of carrying out the experiment, that much you could observe. And besides, the chances of you getting harmed before she brought you back to size were so slim. You happily agree, taking another look at the shrinking device before your teacher went over to the door and slid the bar over it.
"Just a precaution in case we get some nosey visitors," she explains, gripping her device in her hands and twisting a dial.
"Well, I'm ready if you are, Anthony. Just say the word and I'll zap you," Miss Blake says, a slight giggle embedded in her words.
