sadly picture darker than wanted, but best screenshot I could get

[Oh... Oh!] Oh?! You mean this? [Idia grabbing his computer and holding it in his hands, the skull instantly going still as it registered he was holding it.] I mean... I guess I can see that. I did kind of base it on Hades and his designs... but it's just a computer, ah, I mean I made it. [A bit of pushing and prodding here and there before Idia removed the face plate of it to show the insides to Jingyi, the circuitry lighting up as it went about it processes, and encircling around a blue gem.] It's just a tool.

[Idia's quiet as he drums his fingers nervously against the sides of the computer.] I-I-I know it's not, ah... full immunity... [All too well...] And no, it just... burns it off without any benefit. [Though any sad thoughts Idia had towards that was side tracked for a moment with Jingyi's determined look, Idia staring back at him, before a hint of a smile and a low chuckle.] I couldn't even if I wanted to, I don't have access to the Lethe system here. I can't go wiping anyone's memories without it... And that's hardly the first thing I would try and get from STYX if given the chance.

[A sigh as Idia moved on, placing the skull computer down on the table top and leaving it there, it sitting still rather than moving to hover like normal.] No, the way STYX aids in blot recovery is done via magical tech unrelated to the Shroud curse. The curse is only meant to protect us, not others. [It may be weird to use the words 'curse' and 'protect' together, but it was only one element of it...] As long as they keep their use to their normal rate, and use their wands, they'll be fine. I doubt either of them are a real threat with overblotting, it normally only happens to the most powerful of wizards, and Ruggie and Sebek are not those.
