The equation was altered two or three times across as many screens before he initiated the program to run through. He raised the expensive designer tea to his lips and took a sip while he was watching.

And he also cobbled together some surprisingly useful aparati when he was out in the world after the accident.
He took another sip of his tea and leaned back in his chair, pushing his hair back a bit.
