"This is not related to food or beverages. I do not require medical assistance. You do not need to wear anything specific."

"I believe I have made some refinements which I would…appreciate your…opinion on. I want you. Your opinion. Thoughts. Brain thoughts."
Another brief moment to collect himself; the furrow vanished as he continued, voice smoothing out into a baritone.
"The conversion coils appear to still be producing a minor kinetic to electrical overflow, however I believe I have…stabilized it."
He grinned enormously.
"To the point where it will not be dangerous to the operator or others unless it is deliberately rendered dangerous. It was very difficult."

"I would appreciate your input under the terms just discussed, but I would not wish to study your compromises. Compromise your studies. Yes."
