Catches the light, [he echoes, before lapsing into a thoughtful silence.] --Well. Sounds we can already do, it's the images bit we'd have to work on. Not impossible, if we get the right people on it...
[He trails off, shakes his head, and flashes the younger man a slightly sheepish smile.] Sorry--getting carried away there. But a, [brief hesitation] friend and I have got plans to improve the sending crystals, and this sounds like it'd be a useful addition to them. Would you be game to join us on the project?
[Prompto raises a brow, quite curious as Myr mumbles a bit to himself. He honestly doesn't know how they would manage it. Then again, they have some interesting magic here. Perhaps something to do with that?
Either way, he perks up a bit at the offer.] Yeah, absolutely! Having video would be a huge plus, trust me. Best way to document evidence... and to embarrass your friends. [He chuckles.] What else did you plan to do to improve them?
Is that so? [Myr's expression becomes one of exaggerated concern as he picks up another cookie.] Maybe I ought to take this one back to the drawing board for consideration before I unleash the forces of embarrassment on the Inquisition like that.
[He's teasing; he can't keep from breaking back into a grin that defuses the words entirely.] Oh, lots--though we're still tossing ideas out to see what sticks. Spells for locating them, sending messages to yourself so you've got a record in your own voice, having a way not to listen to all the chatter that goes on if you've only got your crystal for emergencies--and so on, and so on. [He gestures with the cookie, then takes a neat bite of it.
Once he's finished, he resumes:] Is there something else you think would make 'em easier to use? It sounds as if you've got a similar sort of thing back home--is that so?
Probably be the responsible thing to do, but you know, sometimes you just gotta be a little irresponsible. Let chaos reign a bit. [Also teasing, having caught on to Myr's grin. Besides, the Inquisition is always so orderly and rigid. A bit of fun could go a long way to lighten things up.
Myr's ideas are good ones, and ones his world has in some form or another. Just with technology, not with magic.]
We do. Just not with crystals. They're called phones where I'm from. I have one with me from home, though it doesn't work anymore. No power left in it to use it. [Not that he could do much with it here, anyway.]
