[ When Amos does approach the Regent, it's with the same refreshed, contented spirit he's had since waking back up earlier in the day. He nods at them, still in possession of his own half-filled wine glass. ]
Hey, Boss. [ It's a term he'd used for someone he'd followed as a moral compass in his previous life; it's only fitting he uses it here too, he feels. They are technically his boss. ] Thanks for all of this.
[ Inviting the Kenoma; hell, not doing anything until some of them had been revived, whether that had been by design or happy coincidence. Trusting them to help in their plans... Trusting him to help take this thing down.
... And that's still kind of the matter at hand. The entire reason Amos had been concerned about, wanted the Innocence dead in the first place, and his demeanour turns more serious accordingly. ]
Are there more things like that out there? Things that can take over our minds, like it did in Venera. [ He'd fallen to its whims, hard and oblivious all the while, and it's something he wants to avoid. Needs to avoid, because it had made him hurt people, and for absolutely nothing. Some shortsighted bullshit, which is the exact opposite of what they're trying to do here, with the Kenoma. ] Or is this it?
[ He has no doubt there's gonna be more stuff for them to kill in the future; it's pretty different if the thing they're killing can co-opt Aions or not, though. ]
