That depends. What year are you from?

Tail end of 2003.

2015 for me. Though even back home, the nanites aren't common technology.

How small are they?

Microscopic. They're small enough to collaborate with cells.

What's their energy source?

In general they're programmed to be self-sufficient. For nanites working with organics, they function almost like the cells they're supplementing.

Do you have blueprints? It's not my area but it'd be fun to see how a self-sufficient artificial microorganism works.

I can send over the specs. It's essentially advanced biomedical technology.

Got any Biomedical Technology 101 to send along with it?

I can send notes. Would you rather self-study or should we meet in person?

Depends on how high your tolerance for abrasive people is.

Abrasive people usually aren't self-aware but that depends on your definition of abrasive.

I'm blunt, emotionally distant, and when I think something is stupid I say so.

I've had worse. At least I can trust you tell me to fuck off if this doesn't work out.

You can absolutely trust that.

I live in the hospital, but we can meet up at the library if you like.

The hospital is still fine. I'd like to keep monitoring the nanites as well, in case there are side effects later on.

Drop by then, I'll send one of the bots on a donuts and coffee run.
