Almost there--almost there--

There's a last bright flash of his omnitool, deft fingers snap other pieces into place and then:

"It's repaired! Stay in the immediate vicinity!"

He stands up, perhaps a tetch unsteadily, and a blue shield blankets them all, wavering yellow around the edges. All weapons from the walls, the floor, or anywhere else will deflect. Hell, his forcefield can withstand an antimatter detonation.

"Normally--" he says, unsteadily, but with the gritted teeth of someone still managing to hold it together. "I would be fully capable of doing it myself, but I'm going to have to delegate the task of determining a solution to our predicament to someone else, while I try to remain conscious--despite a moderate state of hypovolemia."

That's Brainy for: 'Someone else think of something, I'd normally be smart enough to, but I'm concentrating on shielding our butts and if it wasn't for sheer force of will, I'd keel over unconscious from blood loss.'
