He tries to imagine a crystalline Eight, tipping his head back slightly as if to look up at the giant monster. The idea is. A little overwhelming? He knows they're all pieces of Sxicq but the thought of them coming together and changing their bodies is uh a little grotesque to him actually.

"As long as he's okay with it," he murmurs after a few moments, trying to reassure himself as much as he's acknowledging what Luka said. He blinks after that though, turning his attention back to the princess.

"Did she say what he wanted to talk about?" He's impressed honestly! Eight had seemed so stoic when he's met him, and it hadn't seemed like Luka's introduction went over that well with him. Maybe the princess' charisma charmed even that very shy dude.
