[Bart's eyes drift over to that stone all held up and tucked away like it's something important-- and it is. He's not surprised that Wally snuck some out, that's just what they do, isn't it? As a team. They go in, sneak things out, work in secret. It's the whole basis of who they are, what they do.

Still. Of all the days for Wally to bring him into the loop on this, it just had to be today, didn't it? Then again, it's not like he knows. Bart never told him dates he just... told him the general story.]

Yeah. [He says after a thick swallow, wrenching his eyes away from the stone to instead glance down at his wrist, already reaching up to absently rub at the faint lettering there.] It works with the nanites right? I mean I probably won't get any of the rock and composition stuff but I could maybe figure out what these things are made of with the right tech.

[Wally can get the chemistry, Robin can get the programming, and Bart can get the machinery. Seems like a plan, actually.

But.]

Hey. Are you... gonna be doing lab stuff all day?

[Wow, he's actually unable to act anywhere near normal right now. That's... concerning, actually. He's going to have to work on this.

Just... tomorrow. He'll work on that tomorrow.]
