More convinced than ever that he did well to not antagonize this woman, Charles politely remains oblivious to the non-verbal and even spoken exchanges that he is not involved in. When he is asked a question however, he snaps back into the conversation with his polite smile and lightly rubs the back of his head with an embarrassed look. "No problems per se, though the diffusion matrix could use some calibration. It took a great deal of reishi to get a clear reading. With some fine tuning, perhaps the same effect can be gained using less power. Still, what happened was quite . . . illuminating." Charles' eyes lose their focus for a moment as his mind drifts back to the results of his test run, and the visions he had. Were those all him? Is it possible those are probable forms he could have been? Even more interesting . . . could he still become them?

Snapping back as Victoria addresses him, Maxi just shakes his head and pats her lightly on the head, "Don't worry about it, well talk about it latter tonight." And with that shifts back to listening to Charles and Victoria chatting.
(Short post as I am lazy)

Having the courtesy to look abashed, Charles takes a step backward as a physical reinforcement of his statement. "I . . . I can leave and let you to discuss things without me." In truth, he doesn't wish to leave, but it seems the polite thing to do. Maxi had been showing him around, not opening his private conversations to the newer Shimigami.

Taken aback by Charles' comment, Victoria stepped away from Maxi and towards Charles. "Oh dear, no Charles. It is me who should leave if anything. You two were talking first and I interrupted your conversation, and I have work to do anyways." She shifted her weight again, almost dropping some of the papers this time. "It was nice to hear about your project, and I hope everything goes well as you keeping working on it. I'll take my leave now, so I get done hopefully before midnight tonight. And Maxi, I'll look forward to our talk tonight when I do get done." She said and walked back to the Gigai room smiling and not even taking a look back at her husband. "See ya later, boys."

Charles raises a hand to catch her, but pauses. The very real feeling that he interrupted something personal washes over him. In trying to be respectful, it seems he made matters worse. Left with Maxi, Charles can only think of damage control for a few moments. "Sir . . . I can go and occupy myself for a bit if you want." His words are nervous and quiet, and while his curiosity is just as strong as ever, and he enjoys the moment, manners make him need to say this offer to let them talk. Their relationship is obviously more than a Captain and Lieutenant.

Waving slightly as his wife walks off, Maxi looks back to Charles and as he lowers his hands, smirks. "Your fine where you are, as I said I will talk to her later." He turns and heads slowly down the passageway to the last room an the floor. "This is my office, though you'll be hard pressed to find me in it. If you ever need me though, try here first." His hand lands on the door handle and a large cloud of dust shoots into the air, "Eheheh..." Maxi lets out a strained laugh and turns to Charles. "Which floor do you want to check next?"

Charles took a moment to view the office, mentally noting where it was in the building, and even pulling out his notebook. Without even looking at it, his hands open to a random empty page and do a quick diagram of the building he has seen, complete with coded notes on the numberlocks and passcode. While his hands scribble away, he thinks to himself on what would be most beneficial to him.
Already provided with the crystals, his diffusion matrix could do with some autonomy. Though the technology is not rampant here in the seireitei, the blaster Maxi carries demands some level of high tech. That could be useful . . . "If you do not mind sir, where might I find machinery? Your weapon has to be serviced and/or made somewhere around here. Such equipment might come in handy trying to refine my rudimentary system."
Also in the back of his mind is the concern about his Shikai. That spider- Aitourensa, it had said the blade would release when he needs it. Does that mean he has to be in danger? Perhaps Charles merely needs to get in a good hard sparring match? The concern shows in some of his notes as spiderlike glyphs begin to come out of his hand through the near-subconscious sketching.

(...Yeah))
Smiling broadly, Maxi turns in a wide circle as he raises his arms slowly bringing them around to point to the entire building. "Ah but this floor is simply administration and living quarters, along with a few things that need to be on this level for access reasons. The whole of the next floor is cryo-storage, and every level above that has technology hidden in every wall panel and under every table. You just have to figure out what your looking for and then look around for it. The layout of tech differs by the layout of the room itself, but on the whole everything is relatively the same." He smiles wider as he points to a wall panel on the wall next to them, "The panels on this level are simply operation information and status grids, that allow for monitoring of the entire building or just a single lab."

"I see . . ." Charles absorbs as much information as he can. With such a basic overview, he is certain that Maxi is holding back, but just what is unsure. Naturally he has his own secrets and pet projects, Charles would expect no less. Still, curiosity gnaws at him. His hunger to know everything leads him to drift towards the closest monitoring panel and then lightly finger his visor. "I wonder if anybody tried to set up a streaming update system . . . "
In his head, a virtual storm of ideas grow and die. A heads-up display on his own visor linked to the status systems, his reishi diffusion system, gigai upgrades, and of course the name Aitourensa flitting across his mind. The plethora of ideas suddenly explodes out of him as his hands unconsciously reach for his notebook and become a blur of notes and drawings. Writing his notes in code is second nature, but the drawings are clear enough to tell what the basic ideologies behind the details might be.

Watching Charles write for a few seconds, Maxi turns to the wall in front of them and presses the small faintly green glowing button. With a slight 'bing' the wall slides seamlessly open and reveals a rather large cargo elevator. Stepping inside, Maxi motions for Charles to follow him. "Well head to level three,there is a device there that should help you be able to keep up with your thoughts. Oh and for the update system, I just have to get you set into the system and you will be all set, but we'll worry about that in a bit."

Coming to his senses, Charles quick-steps into the elevator, his hand never stopping. A sheepish smile on his face, he enjoys the tour as it progresses. "Level three? I suppose I was not sure just how advanced the tech would be here, given that we are all using swords and spells. Nice to know there are 'options' available. What device might you have in mind?"

A smile plays across his eyes as the doors slowly close, a nearly silent hiss as they seal. "Oh I have yet to really name it yet, that would mean its done in my mind. I love to tinker with it. If I must call it something, I think Ill call it the psycho-scoop. I like that, PS-1.0 for short." He chuckles a bit then looks back to Charles, "It has a nearly unlimited storage bank and a visual lag of only 1/1000 of a second, though Im still working out that..."
