Tovar offered her a weak smile in return, brow heavy with emotive lines. "Nothing that'll fix this, unfortunately." Not in the ways that mattered anyway. Not in the way that would matter to Michael. Hesitating, he pitched his voice low before continuing.
"Michael's been burned out," Tovar explained in hushed tones. "At some point he channeled too much magic and it hollowed out...everything. He can still work the flows of magic, but his body is..." Tovar hesitated, flushing with frustration over this whole mess - though not, necessarily anything to do with Kanth and her brood. "It's not right anymore. It breaks easily and you can't heal the damages with magic. It doesn't work on his body any more. It's a task to touch him without screwing something up, much less..." he motioned briefly to Altessa and shrugged numbly, falling silent soon thereafter.
Etain looked up sharply, express falling farther. "Awww." Had their visit really been cut so short?! Sighing, he pushed up to his feet and looked mournfully indoors at the cluster of people. Dangit.

"Great going, kid. We just both ******** up a magus." Kanth reached out and ruffled Altessa's hair, and Altessa stared darkly at the ground.
"Thanks..." Kanth glanced off at Medusa and thought for a moment. One could very well see the gears turning in her head. As she thought, she finally nodded and glanced to Tovar again, smiling. "The invitation is still open, should you ever want to come over to our house." Mansion, she corrected herself, though didn't say it aloud.
"We kan hang owt latyr." Giving a firm nod, the Jellyfish girl turned to Etain and gave him a big hug, hesitant to let go.

"It's a deal," Tovar managed as cheerfully as one could expect. In the kitchen, it sounded like baby Leith was making a mess of himself and the surrounding area once again. He winced slightly, scratching the base of his neck self consciously. "We'll see you later."
Etain hugged back, all the strength in his little arms going toward grasping Medusa in a great big bear hug (or as much of one as some small such as himself could manage). "Later," he promised, smile switching on like a light before he released her and turned to move back inside, skittering past Kanth and Altessa in the way.
Forgetting himself, Etain glanced briefly back over his shoulder and caught sight of Kanth's features. He staggered momentarily, head whipping around the rest of the way and body twisting awkwardly. He gawped openly at the woman, brown eyes large. No itch.
It took a few moments for him to regain his senses. Etain scrambled back behind Tovar's hip, waving shyly to Medusa from there.
