[The potential here was impressive; had things gone differently, he would have enjoyed watching what Hiro developed over time. Perhaps he'd have had the opportunity to be here legitimately, as opposed to breaking and entering.
To be fair, he was trying his best to not make a mess. To be fair, the moment there was even a slight lapse in concentration, the microbots tried to swarm over everything and explore; it was a constant battle between investigation and restraint, but at least he'd a little bit of practice in controlling them at this point.
Still, as Callaghan flipped up some of the notes, he wondered just Hiro would have done with these, given a longer window to research and develop their usage. He'd no doubt have found and took steps to prevent a problem like this, before it had even become one; clearly, this was Robert's own mistake, one of many perhaps less-than-wise decisions he'd made.
They can't be taken back now. And he's at a complete loss as to how to deal with them, now, when there's no longer a band or mask involved in controlling the microbots, where they seem to respond to thought alone and things that he's relatively certain he didn't even think of in the first place.
He hopes he can convince Hiro to at least hear him out, but he also hopes he won't have to see Hiro at all, and that the answer is somewhere in his notes.]

[He nudges against Tadashi as he passes, and as he usually does, jumps to grab the handle on the garage door and let his weight pull it part of the way shut, at least close enough that he can finish closing it with both feet on the ground. Which is a mistake, because he comes away waving his hands and hissing in pain.
It's like having a zillion paper cuts. God.]
Remind me not to do that again for a couple days. [He tucks his hands safely into his hoodie pockets.]
no subject
[Tadashi winces sympathetically, heading over to use his perfectly healthy hands to be sure that the door's properly closed.]
C'mon, knucklehead. [Hope Hiro doesn't mind a quick hair ruffle before big bro sets a hand on his shoulder, gently nudging him toward the house proper.] Let's go get some actual sleep.
