When Milly responded enthusiastically, Jonathan beamed, albeit mildly surprised. This was the first time in a very long while that anyone had taken one of his inventions seriously! Song only shot down the logical fallacies behind his inventions, so he appreciated being able to share his creations with an aficionado. Perhaps he didn't have to worry about boring Milly with technical jargon after all!

[color=LightSteelBlue]"Yes, good points for sure. Depending on how you load it, it'll take some thought to make sure that you're not anywhere near it when it goes off,"[/color] Jonathan agreed. [color=LightSteelBlue]"For closer range though, I think it would be best to just throw a normal bomb, and use the roto-bomber only as a long distance specialty weapon that just blows everything to oblivion- all in good fun. I put it together in the discus shape and designed the internal acceleration so that you could hopefully launch it much further than you could throw- perhaps even further than the average marksman's accurate gun range, say 200-300 feet, if you give it enough of a heave. It's always nice to take out your enemies from afar, though you can't quite feel the explosions as intimately, I'm afraid."[/color]

[color=LightSteelBlue]"But now that you mention it, the ability to remotely control the launch of individual spheres would be incredibly useful,"[/color] Jonathan put his hand to his chin. [color=LightSteelBlue]"You could throw the roto bomber into the middle of a battle, and wait until the opportune time to launch them if you had some sort of controller... It could almost be a game of sorts! I'll give this some more thought. I’ve recently been experimenting with using radio waves as control signals. Maybe this would be a good use for it."[/color]

[color=LightSteelBlue]"The directional charges might be a good idea as well. There’s also the case where the disk launches a sphere, but the sphere hits something and detonates near the roto bomber... though again, a controller would solve that problem."[/color]

[color=LightSteelBlue]"Ah payload wise, as I mentioned earlier, you can adjust how far the disk will shoot the spheres out between 10-30 feet, and adjust accordingly, though it's probably best to keep the roto bomber as light as possible by keeping the spheres themselves light. One of the nice things is that you can be quite versatile with this contraption. Load it up with flashbangs, fireworks, cupcakes even."[/color]

[color=LightSteelBlue]“But what’s a good invention without a bit of collaboration? Why don’t you hold on to the roto bomber and tinker with it how you like. Ultimately, I think you’ll be the one with the most use for it,”[/color] Jonathan said with a knowing grin. [color=LightSteelBlue]“I’ll keep looking into radio waves, though perhaps you may find an opportunity to use it before I figure anything out.”[/color]

With that, Jonathan let Milly off to her own devices, and begun fiddling away with antennae at his desk.

On her way to the apothecary, Song caught sight of the young german noble. While he wasn’t the easiest to read, she appreciated his presence aboard the ship. The little rivalry that Waldemar and Jonathan had begun to form kept her traveling mate just a little bit more on his toes. 

She gave him a nod of recognition and a light smile, but didn’t quite know what else to say to start a friendly conversation.
