Time to see how broadly the forcefield rule defines "weapons". The nearby Multi-Use Beam Station is the most obvious thing to try first, which is much easier to aim now that it's not affixed to a ceiling. You're pretty sure it will still function fine, because it would be less interesting if it didn't, and because this thing is basically magic anyway. If it does work, you really hope the Multi-Use Beam Station qualifies more as "scientific equipment" than as a "weapon".

You might not be a "real scientist", but you still know how to test a basic hypothesis. It's almost like trying stuff to see if it works is something that literally anyone can do. If you think about it, maybe everyone is a scientist? Whoa. You can't decide if that's hella deep or hella stupid.

Anyway, it's hella experiment time. You administer your very legit scientific test using a fairly basic code first, just in case the MUBS beam does get reflected back at you or your allies.
