Nod nod.

"I really don't know what would happen if I was very backlashed and blindfolded."

"I am at your disposal for experimenting with racking up backlash and dealing with the consequences."

"That... is probably not the worst idea. If you are okay being pulled uh... potentially quite a lot of times in a row."

"For science."

"Would you also be interested in flying out each time before I pull you back. For science. And afterwards."

"I don't like flying alone, it stops being possible for being alone to be fun pretty fast."

"That makes sense."

"I guess for this purpose I could go for a flight with Cricket."

"You really don't have to if you'd rather not - I don't have a better reason for asking for it than for the guiding afterwards."

"I could be invisible at you." He turns invisible, which is interesting since he is still feelable. "Like so."

Blink blink.

"You have really cool powers."

"Thank you, I like them." Surprise invisible kiss!

Lucien jumps!

And then attempts to return the kiss but gets some part of Haru that he's pretty sure aren't his lips.

Haru giggles. "That's my ear, Lucien."

"Oh, is your mouth-" Lucien guesses "-here?"

"That's my chin."

Well than Lucien can work his way up.

When he finds Haru's mouth he does not get verbal confirmation because it occupies Haru's mouth.

Oh well.

Paula gets them set up with a simple dungeon for Lucien to start with. It's got pygmy elephant and rhinoceros monsters, which breathe fire, in a dense jungle. The victims are up in trees. Haru's going to go in and tap them all twice each so Lucien can recall them and he'll pop out when he needs guiding or when he's done, whichever comes first.

Lucien can sort of awkwardly stand near the medical team in the meantime!

Doesn't take long for Haru to reach and tap the first guy and they come at a steady clip after that.

Lucien starts apologizing to them individually after guy number three.

"Let us handle it," advises the support crew.

"But it's my fault?"
