It's too valuable-- too hot to handle.

它太值钱了 太惹眼 没法出手。

And as well as being too hot to handle, plasma behaves in really weird ways.

除了太热而无法处理之外， 等离子的行为也非常奇怪。

I can write in cold blood if I have to, but I like it best when it's fresh and almost too hot to handle.

如果不得已我也可以不动感情地写，但我最喜欢鲜活滚烫、几乎灼人的写作状态。
