Ah. [and he tilts his head.] No wonder you noticed when I turned the thing on. And I'm sure you're not the only one who relies on them...
[he lets out a breath, reaching up to rub the bridge of his nose] I'll do what I can, but my first priority right now is getting the thing working, period, as opposed to picking and choosing. What I can tell you is that the design's limited in range, and that the more it has the harder it is to keep up - I may just go back to the individually-sized units it's based on.
[easier to utilize, but they'd take quite a bit longer to produce. and unless he found a funder...
[ It's not his fault if Callaghan assumes Miles means something having to do with his physical body. Miles lets his gaze drift down to the machine again, thoughtful... ]
[he's using others for test subjects. like himself. Robert smiles a bit, relaxing as well] Good to hear. The more I can run against each other, the quicker this'll go. Now, unless I'm mistaken, that thing's going to run out of juice in a minute or two- so unless you've anything you can think to ask me...
[and there goes the humming. not that Robert's powers allow him to really sense its' operation - it's one of the reasons why he doesn't mind the noise.
that aside, he reaches out his hand to shake.]
I'll let you know when I've got something operational. Least I could do.

Let me know if I can be of any service, then.

[if he's offering...Robert makes a thoughtful noise, regarding him before shrugging lightly]
I've been taking some blood samples to try and isolate the nanite traces, if you're of a mind to help. I've had a few already, but...
[he won't say no to more. at the same time, it's not necessary, not by any means.]
no subject
Of course. It's no trouble at all - I've had so many medical procedures done that a little blood draw hardly fazes me.
