[ He doesn't say that he thought, however briefly, of Antarctica, because it wouldn't do them any good now. He had thought about it, but he'd also considered they could have been in the Pacific somewhere, the Arctic. Anywhere. He'd even, very very briefly (because he liked pet theories like that), contemplated that they weren't even with Russians. That they were maybe tucked away in a Great Lake, with Americans pretending to be Russians to incite something more political than he was able to comprehend at the time.

Hermann's words give him an idea, one he doesn't really want to voice until he has confirmation that it can and will be able to happen, because he doesn't want to give Hermann false hope. But he thinks he'll have to talk to a certain genius about nanotech. Hell, Newt would microchip himself like a damn dog if he thought it would stay.

But the heartbreak and failure seeping into him from Hermann across their connection is too much and he can't keep his mouth shut. Newt squeezes his hand back.]

I'll figure someth--We'll figure something out. Look, we'll find something that works. And keep trying until we find it. There has to be these...frustrations to incite change! 'Necessity is the mother of invention,' right? The necessity has been addressed, so we'll invent the necessary solution. You did everything you could with what you had, Hermann. Listen to me, Hermann: you. did. everything. you. could. This has always been a two-man job, right? K-science has always been this, us, two complimentary sides--three, really, if you want to include the Jaegers--but! But the point is! Your math can work miracles, but it has always been up to me [begrudging aside] (and the Jaegers) to get you that data. I failed you on that here, but I am going to make this work now, Hermann. I'm going to make sure you have your data.
