[Not everyone thinks Eliza is cruel and heartless. Chirpy remains under the impression she's a perfectly fine person to seek attention from, and seems content to flutter the stubby things it calls wings against her fingers, cannonballing into her lap.
Jack leaves the winged duo to their business. What he knows best of all are threats, and he doesn't think Eliza is that--not to the baby chocobo, and not to himself. Probably. Not without a little provoking, maybe, which he isn't about to provide.
... In fact, he might call the dragon girl and the demon girl the closest things he has to friends here. Which is why his attention perks up when she says it's a matter of life or death. Seriously?]
Die? Wow, no way. That's a bad deal. But I think I'm starting to get it--you have mana, but you can't get it from its source anymore... so you need more?
[Jack's familiar with the need for a middle man. Thanks to Mother's special privileges, he can replenish his magic by himself, but it isn't that way for most Rubrans who need to tap into the Vermilion Bird Crystal. Without access to the Crystal, their magic dries up like a puddle under the sun. Is it like that for her?]
I'd share some to help you if I could, but I don't know how to just loan power like a cup of sugar. How does a "contract" work?
