[ Have they spoken since he gave her orders to stay on the island? No. Is she coming at this with any sort of respectful repentant preamble? Also no. SCIENCE IS AFOOT. ]

I was told we were in the possession of research regarding something called the germ theory, that could be beneficial to the outbreak treatment. Additionally, are you aware of anyone investigating the possibility of building a microscope or any research that might be related to it?

( whatever, this is the nerd division. )

I will have copies brought to you.

( oh that microscope? cosima's microscope, that he literally has set on a pedestal, along with her memory? )

Those, I will need copies made of. For what purpose do you require them?

[okayimin]

Thank you.

[THEY HAVE A MICROSCOPE?!?!?!!?!? ]

I had the most fascinating conversation with Mister Tony Stark about these so called microbes which can only be viewed via a device called a microscope. It seems in his world, these small creatures are the cause behind a great deal of their diseases. I'm curious as to whether or not such things exist in ours.

( he weights his options. )

If Monsieur ( orlesian wife orlesian life. ) Stark is willing to supervise, I am willing to allow access.

Once you are out of quarantine.

[ She is doing her absolute very best not to sound like a child who's just been told she has to wait to visit her best friend until after she's finished her chores. It mostly works. ]

Of course, sir. I'm sure Mister Stark will be perfectly willing, he seemed very enthusiastic about the general health of Riftwatch.

( that's endearing, actually. abstractly endearing, and hampered by her affiliations and species, but still. )

He may pick it up any time he likes.

[okayimin]

I'll let him know.

[ A pause. ]

If I may... Are you familiar with how the microscope functions?

[PLEASE SIR GIVE HER ONE SMALL SCIENCE. ]

[rowancrowned]

Magnification and light. The precise workings are contained within the report. She was thorough.

Absolutely fascinating, I look forward to reading it. What was the name of the scholar? Do we have any other research notes by her?
