If there is anything Waver is prone to, its explanations on subjects he has found interesting regardless of if anyone asked for them. So Yin would probably usually get explanations like that in place of discussing personal matters.

Her question is met with a hum, as he had been thinking on the subject himself on and off. “That’s a bit debatable, I think… The cryst is hiding in that other realm, and the calamity itself suggests that there was some kind of interruption or diversion from how things should have worked.” Considering the Aspects seem out of their depth and the fact that they can’t even control the comings or goings of people anymore… Well, he hasn’t got high hopes of any of this going according to how it should be.

“So if the cycle is still going, I don’t think it’s going how it’s meant to… But we need more data to work out the specifics, and maybe a chance at recovering the cryst if it’s that important to the way this world operates.” Which he expects means that, at some point, their little green acquaintance is going to have to enlist help whenever she’s ready. Clearing his throat a little, he refocused. “So it’s all just my current theories, and I believe you’ll find others have their own ideas.” Some people didn’t even seem to want to figure it out to go home, so much as figure out how to stay here… Weird, in his opinion, but he supposed it might be better than some people’s alternatives.

At the final question, he lowered his cigar for a moment. “Percival Quincy. So far no one I’ve spoken to recognizes the name… I suspect if he’s here, he may be serving a different function and leading a different life than he did before. If not that… Then he could also be in that other realm as well, I suppose.” Why else would he not show up at the academy once it returned? The professor rather hoped it was the former though, so they might at least have a chance at talking to him to learn more.
