His cousin perfectly captures the alarm of the possibility within his expression, despite his softer wording for such a disaster. Perplexed by the mention of the shrink ray, he at least takes a few seconds to consider if such a thing could be used based on physics alone. It doesn’t seem promising, but Sadie reminds him of magic - which is indeed bullshit.
Watching Sadie drop to sit next to him, he nods in agreement with her assessment. Testing the giant dormouse itself could prove far more dangerous. He listens as Walter prompts for other options, and Benjiro thinks on the matter carefully out loud, “...I might be able to build most of the parts myself with enough time for something like that if Sadie doesn’t have access at university. We have to prioritize checking in on the shark maestro, but I would be willing to try. If nothing else, we can collect hair samples the mouse has shed and start with that.”
“In the mean time, I did take samples of the chalk from the cavern around the mouse. Last time I examined the tunnel minerals, they were different from a sample right outside the entrance. I couldn’t pinpoint what made them different at the time unfortunately. Whether the cavern and tunnel samples will match is another matter.”
In an effort to disclose all of what he found, he adds, “And there is one more thing. When I stood on the top of the mouse the first time, my Number reacted to it. It was only knowledge, but the feeling that came with it was a lot like what you described in the river mouth, Sadie. I almost forgot to breathe.”
