Ryoma woke to banging sounds. He got up and headed to Isabel's room. As always, her room was sweltering and dark. She always had the windows shut and the blinds drawn. Isabel kept her workbench in her room, and the giant computer plus the equipment made her room a sweaty, hot mess. "God, Izzy. This is gross." He noted that there was something glowing red on the ceiling, but the room was so hot he could practically see the heat near the light. He ignored it and gazed at his partner.
She rolled her eyes at him. "Shut up, Ryoma, your room is nice and cool, isn't it?" She asked, giving him an annoyed look. She was in her underwear and holding a screwdriver somewhat suggestively. Or he might've been thinking that because the heat was kind of already getting to him. In any case, Ryoma wasn't particularly interested in Isabel being unclothed. She was relatively flat chested and boyish, but...
"What... exactly is going on here?" He asked, walking into the room.
"Don't give me that look." She pointed her screwdriver at him. "My computer broke. If I don't fix it, my notes on this new unit are going to be destroyed."
"How broke is broke?"
"Broke is-- wait, what kind of a backwards ass question is that?" She asked grumpily. "Why don't you make sense once in a while?"
"Right." He said. "Can I help?"
"Sure. Take your shirt off, though, it's hot in here."
Ryoma did, tossing his shirt outside of the sweltering room. "So what's the matter?" He asked. Isabel shrugged, looking back at her computer. It was a huge tower with a lot of additions-- she had a lot of perhiperals connected to it. Her computer crashed at least once a week, so he was used to her having to fix it, but...
"Nothing you'll understand. just hand me tools." She said, bending down. Ryoma really didn't understand fixing computers, so he didn't complain.
"So... what do you have running that's making this room so hot?" He asked, as she observed her computer.
"Huh? Oh, nothing," she waved her hand. "The space heater is controlled by the computer and I accidentally turned it on before I nearly fried this thing." She pointed at the glowing red light on the ceiling.
He had a lot of questions. "So your space heater--"
"Yes, Ryoma, don't think too hard about it."
"But you know there's a knob on the top that'll turn it off?"
"Yeah." She said. "But I'm busy. You do it."
"I'm not getting near that thing with a ten foot pole. But you..." Ryoma chuckled. "You completely forgot, didn't you? You forgot you could manually turn it off?"
"Ryoma, I swear to God, just hand me screwdrivers and shut the hell up."
Grinning, he asked, "Do you need a screwdriver?"
"No! Shut up!"
"Why'd you make your space heater automated? Also, how?"
She grumbled. "It was an experiment. I wanted to see if I could light up different coils from a computer."
"Hmm?"
"That space heater uses coils, you know?" She said. "I was trying to light up all the coils seperately."
"At... what time at night was this?"
"It doesn't matter! Anyway, when I turned all of them on, it crashed my computer. Then the heat. And, you know, now this."
"How could something that small crash the computer?"
"It... might've had to do with some other stuff I was doing." Isabel muttered. "But don't worry about it. It's really unimportant. Blue screening and dying is natural for this stupid piece of shit. I mean, I didn't blue screen, but I might as well have."
"Got it." Ryoma said. "So why were you doing that, anyway? The coils thing, I mean."
"Because I think I can make the control unit send signals to diodes in the brain of the paitent like that. With something similar to the technology I'm using to light up the coils." She said. "Instead of using the chip implanted diodes, I was going to install the chip into the diode. Then I'd have the unit guild the diodes from inside the brain. We'd have to get a scan of the paitient's brain to do it... but it could be done."
"You said the chip might corrode if we put it in the diode, though."
"Yeah, with our shitty diodes." She said. "But with the new diodes, it should be fine. Plus, the paitent's brain can probably turn on and off the diodes on its own."
"Doubt. Highly doubt."
"But it happened already," Isabel said. "The smallest screwdriver."
Ryoma handed it over. "...How's that possible?"
"Well, even though these diodes are hella crap," She said, "I think they can transmit the signals that the brain sends... well, for our current ones, only when the signal's really strong. But the new ones should be able to do it for weaker ones too."
"Oh? I like how this sounds."
"Don't get too excited." She said. "It's speculation. I could be wrong, that's why I need to install the control unit still. But I want the whole procedure to be automated."
"Right." Ryoma said. Isabel groaned and started doing something Ryoma couldn't see. "You're sweating through your underwear." He noted. She stopped and glared at him. "Sorry. It's just really obvious."
"Well take a picture, Ryoma." She snapped.
"...Anyway," He grinned at her. "After the system is automated, then what?"
"Then we'll be able to test and see if you're up to snuff, yeah?"
"I've been looking over my work. It'll work. I know it."
Isabel sighed. "...If only we could test it on someone..."
"We have the dog."
"Eh, I don't want to test it on the dog." She muttered. "I want a human being. Someone who can tell us concrete things. Answers."
Ryoma frowned. "...It would be best to have a human tell us about any side effects."
"..." She sighed. "...Maybe we should just... knock someone out and do the procedure."
"I-- don't think so?"
Isabel sat up and glanced at him. "Why not?"
"That's an invasion of privacy."
"Pff. That's if we get caught." She said. "...Look, if we get a healthy human brain and test our unit in there, we'll be able to determine a lot of things. You know, like...signal disruption and what happens as a side effect." She frowned. "And the mafia-- they're yakuza here, right?" Ryoma nodded. "Don't they have people they want to torture or potentially kill? Why can't we just have one of them come here and we just use them for experimentation purposes?"
"Because we're not monsters?"
"Well... you aren't." Isabel said. "But I am."
For a moment, Ryoma considered her idea. But he quickly snapped back to reality. "You know we can't turn this in to any medical association if we do that."
"We literally can't do that now. Dirty money, right? And yet we planned on turning this in anyway." She said. "The mafia's very likely going to try to have us killed afterwards. It's in our favor to make sure it works, know the side effects, and then vanish. Then when we appear and give it to the medical community, we don't have to do more tests."
"We're definitely going to be killed after this." Ryoma said. "I don't address Atobe like he's a boss. He's probably fuming."
"Me neither. Giant pushover."
"It's because we're the only ones who can save his dad."
"Yeah."
"So you're going to put something that's malfunctioning into his dad's head?"
"Eh. No." She waved her hand. "A working set with our old, shitty diodes should give us plenty of time to continue working. Then when we perfect it, I'll install the good set and leave."
"...Would he let us?" Ryoma frowned. "...The side effects to this unit might be mind control. Waking mind control."
"Pfft, c'mon, Ryoma." Isabel said. "The unit gets really terrible reception from under the skull. It won't work well. The signals from the unit are so weak, if the brain tells it do something opposite the unit, the brain would win. We made it that way on purpose." She held out her hand. "Biggest screwdriver." He handed it to her. "So there's no mind control, except on this first unit we're going to install in Atobe's father. And even then, you can't make him do anything he doesn't want, really. He just won't be able to move on his own." She went back to the computer.
Ryoma sighed. "...I think we ought to be careful all the same."
Isabel responded grumpily, "I think we need the goddamn diodes."
Ryoma agreed silently, and they sat in silence for a little while. He asked, "...Have you been going to Asuka recently?"
"No. How's Momo and Tachibana-chan doing?"
"Momo's down two games."
"Damn, you suck. It should be twenty by now."
"Shut up, Izzy." Ryoma complained. "We've only played about twenty games. I'll beat him."
"And Tachibana-chan?"
"I don't talk to her much. You should visit her."
"No way. I'm still modifying the control unit so we can just control it like a drone."
"Why? We can just put it in the normal way. Why does everything have to be robots with you?"
"Robots are the future, Ryoma." She said. "Anyway, is the underside of the skull smooth?"
"Uh... I mean, it's not jagged... What do you mean by that?"
"I was wondering if the unit could stick to the skull's bone. I mean right now we're setting it over the most damaged area, but... I could just put a diode there instead now."
"..." Ryoma rubbed his chin. "...That's a good idea."
"Isn't it?"
"But it might not be feasable."
"Pff. Tell me about liquids in the cranium and I'll make it feasable."
"What about for concussions? That's a really dangerous thing to do. Maybe if we put it near the back of the skull... If we can put it somewhere the brain wouldn't hit normally... That's possible if we make it as close as possible to the base of the neck."
"See? I knew you'd think of something."
"...Don't do anything without my go ahead, but I'll look into this and see what I can do." Ryoma said, finally. Isabel's computer turned on and the space heater turned off. "Oh, you fixed it."
"Ha! Damn straight I did!" She grinned. "Now get out. I need to sleep."
"..." Ryoma got up. If she does manage to make something that can rest on the bone of the skull... it really would be possible to have this thing as a drone. He thought. "...How long would it take you to finish? You know, with the good diodes?"
"Well, it's not that long now. Maybe one more month of development, and then building would take a week, and then we'd just need to activate this bad boy." She said, wiping her forehead. "...Then it's all you."
"Can you make sure all the diodes get to the parts of the brain they should without causing more damage?"
"Not without a test subject. Not the dog, like I said. His diodes are permanent, it'd be useless."
"Tch. We can't do it to a normal human." Ryoma muttered. "...I'll look into fluids in the brain and get back to you."
"Good. Now get out." Isabel said. Ryoma chuckled, got up, and left.
