Ivor had let out a quiet sigh of relief. He wasn't fully sure if it was because they were getting move on, or because he slipped out of the introductions for the moment. There had been too many things on his mind lately. Too many things to be worried and look out for, especially when aliens had become involved. Who knew the capabilities that were at play. All of that, and socializing was a partially struggle in its own right. The chatter on Citri's radio would increase as group left toward the hangar. It grew increasingly frequent as they had all approached. [hider=Quiet radio chatter] "200 Lumens" "250 Lumens" "300 Lumens.." ... The radio would continue with an increasing higher number, as they'd all get closer. [/hider] "Well..." Citri would pause and squint up into the corner of the hangar after Eric asked their question. She needed to really think on that one. "I wouldn't call it, 'standard'. But most of it isn't alien tech. Wouldn't keep those devices exposed as much on the surface, though we would always love to get more samples of it. Speaking of which, we do have a bit of an exception for you two." Citri would gesture to a random researcher that had been wandering around. Soon after a cart would be wheeled out from further back. The cart had a pair of small terraniums with various small odd looking plant & fungal life growing within. Odder still, would be a wristband with glowing crystal in the center of each. The plant & fungal life seemed to sprout outward from the crystal itself. The light of the crystal seemed to be, pulsing, and alluring in some odd way. At first the crystal seemed a clear color, but would shift hues when approached (up to you, which color). [color=f01a89]"Think, this is probably the alien tech. Is it, is it messing with your head too? Is it, supposed to?"[/color] Ivor would ask, and took a step closer toward the terranium on the left. He would look over to Eric to check if they were also feeling or acting odd. "Don't worry, it hasn't caused any harmful effects. In fact, maybe you should try grabbing one of them." Citri would slowly slide back to watch. [hider=Should the crystal be touched] If the crystals (or the wristband) in the terranium be touched, the life surrounding it would let out a similarly glowing hue. A sharp spike of energy would run up into person's body, filling with a surprising burst of vitality among other possible effects. It may even feel, almost.. transforming. [/hider]
