The Hexcore needed to be perfected. Jayce had been desperate, and he had looked through all of my notes, but...
[He glances at a hand, curling and uncurling it.]
My body needs to evolve more... It has to become less human to channel the current of the arcane... Perhaps... machinery is the best viable option... We were already halfway there.
he sort of laughs. He can't really laugh, laugh, but it's a sort of airy huff.]
I was an inventor. I created many mechanical things besides Hextech long before being able to wield the arcane. I think I would be able to maintain myself fairly well.
That explains a lot. [ reasonably he could have assumed as much, given the creation of hextech, but it's one thing to build machines and another to work on yourself. ]

[ to develop a plan here. ]

I should like to meet Maddie then.
[They can talk about mechanics, and maybe he won't think so much about world domination.]
I'm not sure if it matters much here anymore.
no subject
She'd be interested in you. Not sure she'd agree with what you're planning, but she'd be interested.
[ if only because maddie likes to study this kind of thing, he thinks. ]
If that doesn't matter, then what do you think does?

[Warning him away from being unhinged....]
I haven't found the answer to that yet.
no subject
... we have a few weeks. Maybe not the worst idea to think about it and see what sticks out.
