I only remember one scene from the beginning or near the beginning of this story, but it has been annoying me that I can't remember the rest of the story or the title. In the scene, the protagonist is a janitor in a research lab or chem. lab where a female scientist is working. Initially, the scientist is very protective of her work and sees the protagonist as a threat to it. During one night where the protagonist and the scientist are alone in the lab, a small chemical fire or acid spill occurs and is dealt with by the protagonist in such a way that shows that he has some basic understanding of chemistry. This act builds up at least a basic understanding between the protagonist and the scientist.

I'm not too sure what happens after this scene, but I am eager to find out again. Thank you in advance if you reply to this post!

This sounds like the opening parts of a Whateley story. The Hive. Retired Admiral Samuel Everhart working as a janitor to have something to do besides rattle around in a big empty house. Makes friends with the head researcher. Etc.. The name of the story was What's Buzzing You. First in a series. I can't find it here, but if you search for that over on the official Whateley site, you'll find it.

It seems to have the same beginning but it isn't the same story. I read it on this website a while ago. It's certainly something I have not read before, so thank you both for the link and for trying to help <3

I vaguely remember a story like this...

The janitor while cleaning the lab accidentally drops a beaker. He attempts to clean up the mess and gets some of the liquid on him. The liquid changes him. The female mad scientist who created the distance goes after him.

Wasn't a whatley story. Can't remember the title...

Wow! There are certainly a lot of lab based incidents, aren't there? I'm sorry to say that none of the suggestions seem to be jogging my memory, but they are certainly entertaining stories by themselves!

through reading 'Perfection' by Morpheus, and was reminded of another story, sadly though if I am right the story was by LightOfFury who has for personal reasons removed her works.

If You're Referencing "Villainy"...

It doesn't match MFL's description all that well. The drug producer isn't a woman and the partner in crime who becomes the accidental victim doesn't really have any basic knowledge of what hits him.
