[ "Black bile." Archaic medical term, one of the "four humours." Is that theory a thing in Carlisle's world, or is it just coincidence? Well, they'll be discussing it in a minute.
Qubit matches Carlisle's pace as they continue toward the lab, though he's clearly champing at the bit to move a little faster. In the meantime, he takes the hefty package, curious. It's a bit late for a housewarming, considering he's been up here for two months, but the assumption isn't wrong. ]
I can take a look at it, sure. Is it related?
[ To whatever happened, that is. He goes ahead and opens the package, though, as long as they're walking. (You really didn't have to wrap it, you know.) The device inside isn't particularly impressive-looking - just a little thing that fits in the palm of his hand, with a couple of unmarked buttons and a belt clip.
Qubit squints and turns it over in his hands a few times for closer inspection. Lately, he's been working to develop the sensory dimension of his power a bit more, since it's always on and doesn't hurt to use. Passive situational awareness, identifying unfamiliar objects, that sort of thing. His eyes glow faintly for a second as he examines the device - he's not quite practiced enough to tell exactly what it does at a glance, but some elements of it are familiar. ]
Personal force field is my guess, but I'll run a full analysis at the lab. [ Adventuring 101: Don't equip it until you're 100% sure what it does. ] Where did you find this?
