[so... it's been sunny. Or well, much sunnier than last month so far. Cam, like most other reasonable people, has been appreciating this in the ways sie knows how to do so - namely, sitting outside in the sunset. Sie's found hirself a nice spot near the center of town, set up a picnic blanket, and taken a seat there with a few

[Robert recognizes Cameron's voice from hearing hir talking before. So he doesn't have any real problems speaking up.]

What an interesting question, Cameron.

My own species - human, known scientifically as homo sapiens sapiens seems to be common here, but I will happily give you detail on the species if you are a non-human sapient yourself... which I believe you are, if our last conversation was any indication.

The species I assumed the form of was an anthropomorphic mutant red-eared slider - trachemys scripta elegans, mutatens. It is a kind of highly-unique subspecies of the typical red-eared slider present on Terran multiversions. A red-eared slider is a species of turtle; turtles are quadruped animals covered in leathery scales - known as scutes - and a heavy shell which has evolved as an extension of their rib cages.

It was quite fascinating to be exothermic for a week...

A nanocomputer is a compact electronic device that stores information, projects holographic three-dimensional video and imagery, and can access the Terran databases. While my particular nanocomputer is the standard-issue given to scientists of the Institutes, and thus has more functionality dedicated to scientific endeavours such as possessing various scientific tools, it lacks access to the databases due to the nature of Luceti. Nonetheless, I think it may be fascinating for you, and it can at least be a way to record data.

[Especially data that Robert doesn't want the Malnosso reading.]

[Holowhats Cameron is having a hard time picturing what this device might look like in hir head. As far as she can figure, it must be some sort of... book? But a small book that puts up an image, but the image is solid? Or ... something. It's hard to image it, but sie gets a general idea, sie thinks]

I- yes...! That does sound most impressive, and I would love to see it.

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

[Sie's not too far off, actually. Though a nanocomputer is more like the journals, honestly.]

One of these days, perhaps, I'll need to show it over the video feeds, or perhaps in person if you would prefer, Cameron.

[Voice]

[kissdiet]

-In person, Professor. I would much prefer to see something where I can touch it and experience it firsthand.

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

That can easily be arranged... And you are not the only person who has expressed interest, either. [Robert may very well have a fan club at this rate.]

[Voice]

[kissdiet]

Oh? Will you hold a lecture on the device then?

[Sie means this as a joke but.]

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert does not get jokes easily and so he takes this completely seriously.]

Well, certainly, if people would be interested in hearing. But I am not sure exactly what I would lecture on.

[Voice]

[kissdiet]

-Ah, Professor, that was a joke, actually. Though, if you were to give one, I can assure you I would attend.

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

Ah, my apologies... [And now he sounds a bit flustered.] W-Well, I'd certainly be happy to explain any questions you had to the best of my ability. Granted, I am not particularly apt at the hardware portion of nanocomputer technology, but I will do my best.

[Voice]

[kissdiet]

In any case, you certainly know more than much of the rest of us... or well, at least more than I do. I'm certain we can learn something.

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

I always welcome the opportunity to teach others, if I can. [Robert beams at Cameron through the little viewscreen.]

Perhaps I ought to schedule some sort of date for this...

[Voice]

[kissdiet]

When you do, please tell ahead of time so that I might make time to attend.
