[ varian talks more about the project, and flat’s certain that whatever he discovered is probably close nuclear energy. he would try to make suggestions based on that, but there’s nothing that he can’t correct if there’s nothing tangible he can mess with.

and it’s not like he can see anything anyways. really, what good are normal eyes for other than seeing what’s in front of people? well, on second thought, maybe he shouldn’t be so hasty with his thoughts.

however, varian’s last comment makes flat raise an eyebrow in curiosity. ]

Obviously it’s not magic. Well, maybe someone who’s never seen anything other than a gas lamp might think it’s witchcraft and hang you for it, but that’s because they don’t know better. Lots of people are like that.

[ flat snorts, not giving much attention to his own comment as he dismisses it with a wave of his hand. ]

Is magic common in your world, too?
