[Doop doop doop... just in the castle lobby, but you know, it's Paradisa. There's always a journal open somewhere when things happen.

For a few minutes the journal picks up dictation of... mostly nothing. Rin talking quietly to someone, apparently Tad, from her tone and how there's no response back. This continues for a few minutes before she suddenly cries out sharply.]

Ouch!! Oh - jeez...

[There's silence for a moment. Whatever just happened, from her reaction it sounds like this was painful! But when she speaks she sounds... hesitant, and kind of nervous. A little more normal for her at this point.]

What's this...?

... How did you do what you did? I mean, what was that?

Those were nanomachines. They can analyze just about anything, unless the castle is making trouble or it doesn't have any record of certain compounds. I update it regularly with everything I find here, though, so it doesn't botch often.

I can use myself as a medium to increase the potency, which is what I was doing. The Connection Gear is just to present it as optical data.

What's a nanomachine anyhow? How do they analyze things then?

[gunslinger]

It's a microscopic robot. It has advanced Artificial Intelligence, and just like any machine, it does what it's specifically programmed for.
