He seems not so much willing to help someone in need, but rather excited at the prospect of a new and interesting challenge.

"Removing a nanite buried deep within the brain of an alien modified to appear as a human? I should feel robbed that you did not come to me in your natural state, but perhaps your neural anatomy will be sufficiently different to make this procedure an educational one."

I smell trouble

So I take it from this that nanites are not magnetic? It's just, I cringe to imagine what would have happened if they were and someone with them in them was submitted to the powerful magnets of an MRI.

And by the way, Clovis seems so smarmy and cocksure. Heh, looks like a fun character.

That was my worry, Sofox. If that little doover had enough ferrite metal content then this could have been a disaster.

actually the fact the nanite showed up on the MRI at all shows it large enough that if it had enough magnetic material would have been a disaster but they'd have had materials used that would not rust nor hold onto the blood so the gears would not gunk up so this would result in metals with no magnetic properties.

"I couldn't help but eavesdrop and await an opportunity to use my experimental medical processes and tools on someone who is desperate enough not to say No." ..... while just as true, somehow this does not sound as ingratiating or palatable.......

Fox doesn't seem very thrilled about the new doctor and his proposal, for some odd reason...

I like the look of that black canine
