[He hums acknowledgement but doesn't bother arguing the worrying point - seems like Sans will be feeling all kinds of less than happy things for a while. More than usual, at that. Pushing him about it is best saved for things that're likely to make a difference for the better, huh?]
Powering machines when there's no power? That's a good idea, I bet there's all sorts of human solutions to this sort of thing. [A few of the neighbors mentioned power outages like this before, at the feast of a cookout.] Maybe we can set up something perpetual while we're at it! Wouldn't hurt to spend less on the power bills.
Yeah, maybe. [There's those pedal-powered machines they have in museums. Sans has seen them on television; you ride a bike for long enough and go fast enough and you can power a lightbulb. But no, that's incredibly stupid. Nobody's going to exercise a robot to life.]
Nothing I can do about that stuff. Not really my department. Sorry.
Not up for night studying, huh? [It's said lightly, almost gently, rather than chidingly. He shrugs to emphasize that it's no big deal, in case Sans hasn't gotten the it's fine takeaway yet.]
Seems like your department's bringing up good points, instead - I'm sure it'll save time, talking with experts. As fun as reinventing the wheel is... I can save it for after I know the wheel's a useful component.
