"It is alright. I came into town to buy a book on robotics, and I found one." He held his book up "I can help you easily and we can check out our items quickly." He noticed the boy staring into his eyes again. He was about to comment on it, but reminded himself of the short time they had "We had better hurry."

"That's good then! Two heads are better than one, anyway," Chihiro said enthusiastically. It was nice to meet another person interested with technology, too. He was looking forward that might be they could talk about other technical things someday. He looked at the book on Gowther's hand, as he smiled from ear to ear. "That will be a nice book to read."
"Uhm, yeah... We should..." Chihiro replied so they could start searching right away. The place was neat, and he couldn't stop blushing seeing different devices. His enthusiasm was painted on his face.

"Hiro recommended it." Gowther followed Chihiro as he searched for the smoke machines. Chihiro's mind was excited, he clearly loved seeing all the machinery around them. To help speed things up, Gowther went ahead and reached up to the top shelf where the smoke machines were "HYou need three of them, correct?" He asked. He knew he was right, but it didn't hurt to make sure.

"Ah yep," Chihiro answered on Gowther's question. 3 smoking devices were destroyed when the tent was burnt, and he bought the cheap ones before. Chihiro tried to reach the top of the shelves, but, he was again out of reach. He was too small anyway which was the problem he encountered when he met Hiro, the same person that Gowther was mentioning always. "Well... if you just don't mind, can... uhh... well..." Chihiro was embarrassed to ask the mind reader to get some of the machines above. He was shy to say that he wanted to check it first before buying it.

Gowther nodded "I don't mind." He reached up and grabbed one of the smoke machines "You wish to test it, right?" He put it on the ground near Chihiro's feet and reach for another one "I'll go ahead and get the other two down." He grabbed them and put them down as well, standing back to give Chihiro room to test it.

"This is too much for a help.... Thank you very much..." Chihiro shyly said. It seemed that he had no escape with this guy. Even he was not saying what he really felt, Gowther was still knowing it. As the mind reader gave him some way to test it, he knelt down and brought his laptop. Once he started it, he connected a plug on the machines and began the test.
"Okay, Alter Ego..." Chihiro muttered and pressed some keys. The screen appeared some analytical lines and as the result appeared... Chihiro slumped down.
"This can't take the high bandwidth of the effects..." he thought in dismay.

Gowther heard his thoughts and looked at the computer "I don't understand what you're talking about." He looked at a clock on the wall "We are running out of time, Chihiro. What do we do?"
He looked at the computer screen, biting his lip and trying to think of a solution.

Time. It was the word that kept pressuring the programmers, and since Chihiro was in the profession, he could feel it. They could find other machines, but they didn't have much time to indulge. It was hard to make the same mistake again, or he would get a lecture from the ringmaster.
Blast! He was a programmer yet a single problem could not be solved. "I believe there must be other way," Chihiro said as he tested it once again. While testing it, he looked up on the mind reader, "Bandwidth means the interconnection between devices. Since the special effects require high quality of devices in order to execute it, the machine should have at least a cord bandwidth of 1GHz above. But it appears that the device was lower than that so it might happen the same again from a short circuit..." he answered. A memory flashed where the main tent was almost burnt down from an exploded machine.
"But I think it can be modified... By using an assembly language." Chihiro pondered, "But I don't specialize much with it..."
((Hi, sorry for the techie terms. By the way, assembly language is the computer language used for programming hardwares))

Gowther listened to Chihiro and thought for a moment. He WANTED to help his new friend, but he didn't have the expertise that Chihiro needed...but the thoughts of a nearby person did! Getting an idea, he smiled lightly at Chihiro "Give me a moment." He walked over to a man who was working in the store. Before the man could react, Gowther placed both hands over the man's temples and focused, honing in on the skills Chihiro needed to be able to get to the show on time, and nothing would go wrong. Letting go of the man and sending him a command to go to sleep, the man fell asleep and Gowther walked over to Chihiro "This might feel weird, but this is the knowledge you need, I hope." Repeating the process, he placed both hands over Chihiro's temples and instead of looking through and reading the thoughts, he placed the previous man's knowledge of the subject into Chihiro's head. ((It's alright ))

After Gowther left him for a moment, Chihiro stared on his back. It surprised him when the mind reader suddenly touched the man he walked over as it made him more astonished when the man collapsed. He had no idea of what happened exactly until he felt Gowther's hands from his temples. He just nodded slowly and hesitantly after the mind reader said some precaution. And after that precaution, something was happening so weird inside his head. So to speak, his head seemed like to "install" new data to his brain. Some info were familiar and unfamiliar. Codes... Symbols... Principles... His mouth opened a bit and after the "installation process", "I think I got it." Chihiro's hands automatically placed on the keyboard. In a fast rate, he encoded the new knowledge, but, his arms suddenly slowed down as his head tilted and the shoulders slumped. The programmer abruptly felt tired unknowingly. "...G-Gowther... why... do... I... feel... so tire...?" ((thanks ))

Gowther nodded his head "Feeling a little drained is normal, your brain was just given new information, and not by normal means, so it's perfectly normal." Gowther got behind his friend to help them stand "Easy now, it will fade in a moment." Gowther helped until Chihiro was no longer feeling tired.
"There, now that you have all the information you need, will we be able to make it to the show on time?"

"Oh... That's why..." Chihiro said, showing a weary smile. "Thank you for helping me... And... Yeah... We will be able to... get in time..." He began to stare back on the computer and continued. "We will be finished this stuff in a minute."
While doing his job, Chihiro asked the mind reader, "I wonder... Where... Did you acquired that skill? It is really helpful..." Chihiro complimented. He was again amazed on the other things that his ability could do.

Gowther patted his back to motivate him until the fatigue wore off and watched as Chihiro finished with his job. "I didn't acquire it as much as I was pretty much born with it. I've always been able to do it, and I don't know why. As far as I know, neither of my parents have it."

Chihiro smiled, receiving a pat from his new friend. He remembered someone who used to do that to him before and he was afraid that one was supposed to be gone long ago - yet he was not sure of it. He barely heard news about that someone. Chihiro just then continued his work, finishing the final touch.
"It is pretty mysterious... If I was on your place I will probably ask myself why I have a kind of such ability..." he commented, "There... It's finish! We have now newly modified smoke machine!" he rejoiced, pretty much loud. Chihiro felt eyes fell on him with his sudden outburst as he felt embarrassed about it. "Oops... sorry..."

"I have asked myself that, but other than just being born with it, there is no explanation." When Chihiro announced the finish of the modifications, he felt a slight smile creep onto his face "Good. And not a minute too soon, the show starts in 30 minutes." Gowther picked up the smoke machines "I can carry them if you pay for them."
