How curious. My interests have always led me to more ancient wisdom. [ They press a button, and it gives the command to twist it. Alright... the next commands are to pull it, twist it. ...? Head tilt. ]
Ahhh, yes. It is one of my personal favorites. Not only can it meet most technological needs, but there are older records and files buried within it.
It will come sooner rather than later so you shouldn't have to wait long. [ lol. ]
Ah. I had begun to think that may be the concept behind it. [ It's said curiously, peering at it around. ] Though the design of it is rather simple, I can imagine those back home making a similar tool for fun.

[ But that excitement starts to die down a little after a moment. ] Unfortunately I am far too busy with my work here.
