It struck him, while he was attaching a crystal to the end of one of the wire coiling thingies attached to the metallic base, that he not only had come to this meeting on his own and without Remy dragging him...but he would even say that his steps had an air of enthusiasm about them while he made his way down. There was, however, a bit of a damper to those steps as once people got to work he once AGAIN found himself on the outs with interest and focus, but it was a turn in events he certainly had not anticipated or seen in the bottom of his tea cup. Not that he tended to actually trust the dreads of his tea to begin with, but it was fun to pretend sometimes. Divination was an easy subject since everything was so subjective and the rules more like guidelines that you could mold and make up whatever you wanted, sometimes fall into self-fulfilling prophecies too.

Anyway. Enough about all that...because this crystal was having a hard time attaching and he had a look of extreme concentration beneath his goggles and complete with his tongue sticking out of the side of his mouth. His teeth were even lowering a bit, the tension forming along his strong square jawline, and bit down on his tongue as it hung out out. He likely looked very comical, probably a lot like how Andromeda looked while putting on that eye stuff to her lashes. He and Aries had often peeked out from behind a cabinet or doorway to watch her do it... just to see who would laugh first and lose the game. Concentration faces were...ridiculous on everyone, as it turned out. Though he would insist his was less ridiculous. No, he would not be acknowledging any hypocrisy nor questions at this time.

Well...okay...maybe one question, because Violet Blackthorne was speaking to him, acknowledging his work, and (the most important bit) praising him. "Oh...um..." he mumbled, not feigning sheepishness (he had PLENTY of pride in what he was doing) but some genuine flustered feelings that elicited a bit of an intense pink hue to his cheeks. "It's a levitating light fixture...one that is intended to alter its color based on the frequency of sound waves to reflect the specific element being invoked," he began to explain while lifting his goggles up and setting them on top of his head. "Took the shape of it from dandelion puffs...felt...whimsical and soft, fitting for...what people are responding to. The crystal-like bits will provide a sort of twinkling effect too." To go with the glitter that everyone but him seemed excited about at the moment. "I'm...just trying to attach crystals to all the ends now..." And there were almost a hundred of them or something on this particular piece...there were a LOT. He had lost count. "If...you want to help...with that?" He paused and nodded his head towards the bag of crystals just to the side.

He wasn't quite sure he wanted to admit right NOW that he really wasn't sure which enchantments would work to achieve what he was hoping to do. He had a few theories but he hadn't tried them out yet. He had several spare parts to experiment on though.
