Progress is slow, frustratingly so.
[For his own purposes, Robert still treats the journal rather like a voxophone. Others can hear it, yes, but only if they choose to, and he isn't revealing any great secrets. Besides, they've had their work stolen once. Here, justice would be easier.]
With our books and notes, we could catch up to our prior work in a matter of weeks. As it is, it will take months, if not years.
[Time he and Rosalind had to spare but time others might not think was so dispensible. After all, there was no reason for them to leave, if this really was some sort of tangent universe. Let the world Elizabeth and Booker knew reset. They would remain here.
They weren't needed in that world anyway.]
There is the further trouble of equipment, as well. The Malnosso are not generous with what can be found in the enclosure, and the time it will take to earn what we require further delays our research.
[He can't help the annoyance that creeps into his voice as he continues:]
If they would but assist us, we might further their aims as well as our own.

[After all, the transplant one way had been successful. There was no reason to test it, though.]
But I had no interest in going back.
