[That... is a very vague answer, and he's not sure he trusts it, but he's not about to press for more details. It's a bridge to watch out for when they get to it.]

Of course. Baby steps are best, since we'll need to carefully measure the abilities and limitations of the technology. [In other words, let's get this thing hooked up and airborne first, then worry about the finer details.] ... Then, I'll keep working on the interface for Elias, and you'll get started on the drone itself?

[evilgrows]

Absolutely. I'll get the body on this thing set up and then we'll figure out what to fill it up with.

[There are other projects, of course, there are always other projects, but this one's interesting enough that he'll probably get to working on it pretty soon.]

Let me know if the kid has any special requests.

[Otto smiles. If nothing else, he expects this cooperation to be very efficient, which is always a bonus.]

I will. Thank you, Doctor. I'm sure the fruits of our combined labor will be something most revolutionary. [...] By this world's standards, in any case.

[evilgrows]

Revolutionary is just what I do. Just ask my former bosses!

[He laughs, because of course nobody can ask his former bosses. But they totally praised his work back in the day, however reluctantly.]

I'd still like to drag this place's standards up a little, so this might be a great place to start.
