Well it's a good thing "big time Physics and Math" is Will's middle name!!! Actually it's Halston and he didn't major in physics but whatever!!! This portal stuff from Alistair definitely seems like a "read at later leisure" kind of thing, so yeah he'll copy it.

Is it possible he could also copy from the computers in the R&D section? Or like, steal a hard drive? He'd love to have access to everything in there, even if it takes him ages to sort through it all. As for particulars, he wants anything related to World Eater destruction methods or anything about the town/world history that the Night Market may have dug up. Also, is there anything left of the original pre-apocalypse scientists' research? Because that seems like it could be relevant. The dragon spirit sent them there for a reason, after all.

Wait quick edit to add: did the Night Market ever experiment with sending things through the portal from this end? Like, other than Alistair's hail mary? If so, Will is Intently interested in that.

Other than that, I apologize for the fact that he will literally never shut up about getting the portal working again.
