The long walk doesn't do much for the radio. As far as Roland can tell, it remains staticky with the occasional lapses in silence. When they take their time like this, listening in for any sign the radio was working with leisurely steps, it quickly dawns on Roland how expansive the train has become.
He hums quietly before speaking. "Formaldehyde is more familiar to me. I know it naturally occurs in certain foods, but back home, we had to keep an eye out for it as a toxin in canned goods. Naturally, they had to be taken off-shelf." Ah, the beauty of bureaucracy and working the paperwork. But that was just an aside; he'll jump off of Tidus's own idea, running similar to something he's been stewing about for a couple of days now.
"Speaking of...We could use a similar strategy to create makeshift weapons that don't cost an arm and a leg." 80 points? For shame. "If we order things in piecemeal and assemble them the way Senku reinforced his shield with plastic, we could find a way to make sure everyone on the train has at least some form of protection." And surely the train wouldn't register raw materials as weapons or ammo. Roland had to order carbon fibre cables and hooks, and it went through. Tidus did the same some time ago: with emergency flares and kits, though the army knife was a stretch he should have expected.
The tone is open, leaving either of them to comment on it. A general idea, brainstorming as they now walk past the last couple of sleepers.
He feels like there's something changing in the way the static crackles through the radio, but maybe that's just him...?
