"[Color=darkorange]That's Sonisis for you,[/color] Lorenzo said in a hushed voice, rummaging in his bag for the unfinished device. He would take the magicite from Grant, plopping onto the ground. After placing the magicite where it needed to be, he would charge the device with his mist. Taking a few tools out, he would adjust the device and fine tune a few things. Grant watched him, slightly nervous. As much as he wanted Lorenzo to hurry up, he couldn't help but feel that this had better be worth it. He wasn't usually impatient, but being voiceless for so long was getting the better of him.

Lorenzo would cough, though as he would beckon Grant to come closer, he would show off the finished product. It looked more like a choker than anything, though he didn't care what it looked like. Fastening it around Grant's neck, he signaled for Grant to speak. "[Color=darkorange]If all goes well, you should be able to speak. In theory.[/color]" He told the pair. When Grant gave him an incredulous look, Lorenzo dismissed his concern with a wave. "[Color=darkorange]Go on, say something.[/color]"

Grant opened his mouth slowly, bracing himself. "[Color=magenta]H-Hello...?[/color]" As he spoke, and much to Lorenzo's surprise, his voice was...ah...rather high pitched. "[Color=magenta]Wh-wha--why does my voice sound like that?![/color]"

"[Color=darkorange]it's a workaround, not an actual solution,[/color]" Lorenzo seemed disappointed, though understanding the situation. "[Color=darkorange]Whatever is blocking your voice from speaking is Mist related, it's causing interference. I had a hunch, but...[/color]"

Lorenzo was taking this well all things considered. Grant groaned, his hands on his head. He didn't know what was worse, being mute or sounding very much like a teenage girl.
