Forgive me, I somewhat misspoke. I understand that danger is unavoidable--my major concern was the latter. Many different magics can be potentially harmful, it's true, not only ones dealing closely with death.
No forgiveness necessary, okay? I just wanted to make sure we're on the same page.
[Ryan offers him a small, hopefully-reassuring grin along with that, reaching up to adjust his glasses.]
We're agreed on that, though. Don't worry, I'm not so devoted to research that I'd screw all of us over. [After a moment's thought, he adds-] And the only stipulation on my part is that nobody knows unless they need to. You'd have burned it if it were yours, I'd rather not have anyone else actually trying to do that-- or anyone clueless getting their hands on it.
[He returns the smile with a small flicker of his own, though the situation makes it difficult to put much emotion behind it.]
I assure you, I have no intention of speaking of this with anyone. The fewer people who know about this, the better. [And he meant that, because his worries of someone finding it without knowing what it was were similar.]
But enough of that. We have a second item to investigate, right?
