[ He tilts his head as he considers this information. He'd thought himself wholly divorced from all this - he'd heard rumors of what Shiro had been through, it was unavoidable really in his situation, but nothing concrete. It had seemed quite a lofty thing.
He looks down at his hands, as if he expects to see them glowing through his suit or something, but nothing has changed. ]
I did feel something when you bombed it, [ he says thoughtfully, keeping his hands moving once more. ] The Omni Cube reconfigured my body - I always thought something felt off, even when it was destroyed and no longer had a hold on me. Maybe that's it.
[ He's not one for idle speculation, though, but comparisons he has concrete evidence for, he can do. ] I don't know if it's the same thing, but something happens occasionally to people who grow up on space stations. We got a little...touched, is how they'd put it. It's easier for us to live in space than back on a planet - the gravity doesn't feel right, the air is too rich...We were lucky charms on space stations, though. If there was phenomena that could damage the station, we always knew about it first.
I thought it was just getting used to the environment. But I stopped feeling it when I started mastering the Omni Cube, and it never came back, even when my body healed.
[ He shrugs. ] Until now. Maybe they're connected.
[ He opens the door labeled R&D and promptly smacks it shut again like a startled cat, reflexively. He doesn't like the look of what's in there, it seems. ]
