I can't endorse anything that puts innocent people at risk, but it sounds like you're not going to act without thinking.
Let me know what I can do. I'm not much of an engineer, but I have experience as a programmer and I can get the hang of new languages relatively quickly.
Thinking is a very significant part of what I do. It would be incredibly stupid to actually put something together without at least putting in some consideration.
Mainly, I need your experience *here*. You're likely to be one of the ones with the best grasp of how things work around here. What's been tried, what hasn't, what might work with a little more tweaking.
No point in repeating history if we can't make it work, right?
Nobody's memory is. At least not by my standards. It'll have to do. Even if your part is just saying "we already did that one, it's incompatible" every so often.

You discussed this with him?
We can't take power from HER. That's just too dangerous.
<DoctorRobotnik>
We've discussed it. I have to run all concepts by him first, but he's willing to try.
Are you?

I HAVE been here for a while.
<DoctorRobotnik>
So you act as historian, I do the hard work, we make some improvements and get things done. Sounds like a plan.
<marco>
As a fair warning, my memory isn't always the most reliable.
<DoctorRobotnik>
<marco>
Well, if you insist.
<DoctorRobotnik>
<marco>
That was just
a figure of speech?
<DoctorRobotnik>
[He doesn't say "looking forward to working with you" because that'd be a lie.]
<marco>
Yes, the feeling is mutual.
