Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lin smiled, "We can wait, we're not in a hurry."

She was glad he was happy this time, and was actually enjoying what he was doing.

Kali slid into the seat next to Andarien.

"So... where were we?"

"Ah... right," Kali nodded, "As I was saying, Gaia uses chemical processes to capture the heat and energy of the sun and covert it into energy, but there are more natural resources that do this normally. For example, plants feed themselves by converting the sun's energy, and they're very good at doing that. There are other materials, like certain stones and crystals, but they don't do it as well.... at least not any that have been found so far."

She mused on this a bit before continuing.

"Even the chemical processes we have need to be helped along a bit. Like using reflectors to direct more sunlight, or having the device turn with the sun, or even as you notice the traditional models are black because black absorbs a lot of sunlight."

Though Kali had been working on that so black wasn't required because black leaves was not going to look that nice on the grounds.

"It was a pleasure to teach you," Kali replied in turn, "It's not often I get someone who can keep up."

Sure, she toned it down for Andarien, but he still grasped it a lot better than most people she knew. The only others she could think off the top of her head that would have gotten it was the neko trio.

Kali grinned, only because she knew to most other people that wasn't easy at all. She followed them back out of her apartments, it was only polite to see them to the door.

"I'll see you again for your party," she told him.

Kali bid them goodbye as the family left her apartment and went back downstairs to where Miyuki and Kara probably were.

"Before I forget," Lin murmured reaching into her bag and pulling out a pair of Andarien's new goggles, "We picked these up while we were out."

"Of course, your father and I would like you to put them on actually. We're going to pick up your sister and since your grandmother will be with her, it would be a good time to see how well they work."

It would be a good gauge into what Andarien could and could not look at.

"How so?"

Lin had never worn glasses of any sort, so she didn't know how weird it could be. Then again, until Andarien, she never heard of the need for glasses that filtered out certain types of Sight before.

"Ah..." Lin looked relieved to hear it wasn't anything bad.

Now that she thought about it, it made sense. The goggles borrowed from Luk were made to block bright lights like the sun, and so by extension the glowing people. While the goggles that were made for Andarien were made specifically to deal with that kind of sight.

"Well then, let's go see how your grandmother and sister are getting along then hm?"

She began to usher Andarien down the hallway to where the study was.
