[There's a lopsided little grin because man, tell him about it?? Moving on!]
I'll have you know I liked it before SHIFTing was an option. But yeah, the rest is...pretty accurate. [A shrug.] I'm not great at science but the possibilities are cool.
[Checking on one of the devices, he's much closer now and reaches up to grab a memory card reader, hand just barely brushing over Beck's shoulder to move past her.]
Hey, how awful do you think Shrek to the Future would be?
...thanks. [He seems okay with that and whatever else he was thinking disappears for now.] I'll figure out how to make stuff up to you later. I think I owe you more than a few favors.
[It doesn't hit right away, and he turns to look over at her with a curious gaze.]
What kind of weird...?
[Except when he looks right at her he knows immediately what kind of weird. It's a pinprickling, hot sort of sensation crawling over his skin and his mouth goes dry for a minute.]
...uh. [Yeah. Intelligent.] Okay, uh...we can just...ignore whatever the fuck this is, right?
I'm starting to wonder the same thing. Can this place even do that? How's that possible?
[He knows there's science to back the art of attraction and lust but also? He barely touched her? This is insane.] That's going to make the rest of this week kind of a pain in the ass...
In a projection room? Probably not...the sound would play over the film, I think. [He pulls at his shirt collar a little.] Maybe we should go. As much as I hate to let Shrek win...
