Thanks. I really appreciate it!

[ this could also double as giving him permission to contact Dr. Keller, since yep-- she definitely needs to know as the Wonderduck's doctor. but he's also grateful that Allen is willing to get other doctors involved in this, especially since they're more familiar with the technology here than he or the Professor is (though he'd hate to imagine how she'd react to seeing all this… that's a thought for another day).

but maybe, just maybe… if they figure it out, maybe they can even find a way to put it all to a standstill altogether… ]

Man, if we had some inhibitor ore, I could definitely try making one for you! [ never mind that he's never made one from scratch; just fixed up old ones. but it can't be that hard if he uses his own as a reference! ] But I can tell you for sure that key crests definitely work. I had to fix one up for a friend of mine when she went through the same thing, but after a while, she was back to normal.

[ after all, Cruxis Crystals are nothing more than stronger, fancier exspheres. ]

[He just gives a little nod at the thanks. Since hey, that's just what they're here for]

Inhibitor Ore... [He was no miner, he knew nothing of ores. It's times like this he missed the castle that could just let you wish for any supply you needed so long as it existed.] Well, if you ever come across any ore on these planets, let me know.

[He looks at Lloyd's hand and thinks. The story itself sounds familiar as he thinks about it. That's right...Kratos had wanted to attach one of those crystals and keycrest to him to try to cure the 14th problem, hadn't he? He still has the scar from it. Wait, was that thing the cause of Lloyd's problems now? But then that mean...had that been his plan- to infect him with Angel Toxicosis? To make him reliant on a stone made out of a human soul? That could have possibly rendered him a doll if the keycrest failed? He remembered Kratos giving warnings that it wasn't a pleasant method in the slightest, but looking at it now-]

[Holy shit. He never thought he'd be grateful Nea was strong enough to reject the crystal. What is with the adults in his life? ]

[But right. That is none of Lloyd's concern. So he makes his furrowed brow look like he's doing it entirely out of concern for Lloyd.]

That's good...does...this Toxicosis, does it come from that crystal on your hand? Is that the method?
