Well, I don't know the technical term, but I know that they were bluish in color.

Yep, those are water Ether crystals. I'll still have to get them for you.

The perfect analogue system, set to repeat the same task over and over again: record everything that happens in the universe from its beginning to its end, and then reset it and record the next set of possibilites. They were said to have been made by Idris Qe, a god worshipped by a good percent of the population, in order to catalogue every single possibility that could ever exist or would ever exist.
The theory is considered crackpot by the scientific community, for obvious reasons, even though it's written down in ancient lore.
Is U an Eariskvendtea? Because this is infinitely stupid.
...You're telling me. It sounds too similar to how I was able to see the future for some time. Now I'm only able to do it if the event is fatal... And even then, there's room for error.
I have to wonder how well it would work on something unpredictable...

Yeah, it was a side effect of wielding the Monado. Eventually, I reverse engineered one and used what I found to create those gloves I've been using for a while... It's said that it's able to let its wielder predict the future in that it calculates where every Ether particle is and will be, with no errors whatsoever. Of course, I wasn't able to reverse engineer the "no errors" bit...

Hm.
But you can't anymore?
...Do you suppose this U can?
I mean, she seems pretty adamant, assuming what you're telling me is true, that this is a nessessary step.
No, I still can... It only predicts fatal events, though, with room for error.
Then again, that's what the original Monado did...
I'd say we should establish the link; my mind's not too crazy, so you shouldn't suffer any.

I was just making sure it worked two-way... As I said, I'm not very good at these.
Ah. Yeah, I can understand that... It's hard to crack into my mind in particular.
Which is good, because it makes me more effective at defending and fighting against things with psychic abilities.
