[ He concentrates for a moment, then makes a tugging motion with his fingers. The bracelet separates into its component parts, like an exploded view on a blueprint. Hmm ... ]
[A little part of him tenses - he isn't touching it so he can't feel it being pulled apart, but he knows the feeling well enough now to know how it should feel. Tadashi watched thr parts float between them.]
I haven't made our modifications yet, so it's the same as the collar, scaled down.
[He gets the collar in one hand, getting a mental picture of its power source and watches the smaller one. He can definitely tell differences now but reaches to take it and hold them both.]
Figured as much. Might need to tweak the design a little to let a bigger power source be attached then.
[Hahahaha weeks' worth of work designated to 'just use what's there' solution. He almost thinks it a waste, but decides that's just information to store away for future projects. With that decided, he takes the in-progress source and gets to working on it again.]
[ Well. They still have to figure out something that lets his other powers through. But if they just want to get something that works period ... Hiro wants to have his brother actually sleep sometime this month, okay. ]
I'm thinking reprogramming it to broadcast something else. Maybe a small boost?
[Ha. Sleep is for the weak and those that don't hurt their little brother; it's gonna eat him up inside for a while. He punches some measurements to send off to the printer and rolls his chair over to Hiro while he waits for it to finish.]
What would you even boost? Dunno if you'd want to make other people's powers stronger, that may cause some problems.

Mind ifI I pull it apart?

Sure, I trust you.

[ Ah. He pulls the power source out from the rest of it. Turning it around in the air. ]
Betcha this is the issue. Scaling down the power is the hardest part

[ A pause. ]
I could go back and look at our generator more too. See if I can come up with any ideas. I was gonna test some stuff on it anyway.

Yeah? What've you got in mind?

I don't want to dampen them either. There'd be no point in testing that.

[He looks to the generator, rubbing his chin.]
Something simple to set up and test, easily reversible with little potential damage.

... maybe. Maybe I could. Oh man, that'd be crazy.

Like that's ever stopped you from an idea.

[ But he's pleased to have Tadashi helping him on this one. ]
That's cause it was crazy. Literally the size of a matchbox with all his equipment in it.

.... What now.

[ Speaking of which, he grins - this topic's exciting too. ]
He uses subatomic particles to grow and shrink stuff. And it actually works!

Seriously, though, I gotta see this. If you go again, ask if he minds me coming.
