"Thank you."
Gozer Goes to Periw's room, and scoops up the Sneklace up and onto his neck area.
"She did not bother you did she? I assumed she would stay asleep till morning."
"She did not bother me. She instead just curled around the decoration that I built."[Round 1: 15+3+1+2=21 vs TN: 80] ENG studies the crystals. It seems confusing still...
[Round 2: 21+6+4+2+3+1+2=39 vs TN: 80] It make a little more sense now, but it's still just a pile of crystals that use Harmonics and Resonance...
[Round 3: 39+7+3+1+2=52 vs TN: 80, Fail] Eng understands some of how the Gem-tech works. It uses a mix of vibration, Harmonics, and Resonance to allow the gems to communicate and preform functions. He thinks he can replicate this with fiber optics and some silica crystals or faceted glass.
ENG would study it for roughly seven more rounds to make sure he can confirm his theories and suspicions, And start drafting a design for a crystal network tap.
[Round 1: 7+3+2+2=14 vs TN:80, 55/100] Eng begins very poorly with confirming his theories and suspicions. He must have made a mistake.
[Round 2: 14+14+3+2+2=35 vs TN:80, 70/100] Eng figures it out, he messed up when he assumed that resonance was a part of it.
[Round 3: 35+8+3+2+2=50 vs TN:80] Eurika! He might have figured it out! The Gems are not actually communicating, but exchaninging vibrations like circuits do!
[Round 4: 50+9+3+2+2=66 vs TN:80,, 90/100 Alarm Triggered!] Just as ENG is getting the gist of how Gem-tech works, an alarm triggers, and he notices too late that a gem like camera has taken his picture.
Periw hears the alarm and goes sprinting out of her room, the large robonoid following behind.
