Hmmm, so mana stones are like a source of power for machines here, but you don't know if your video camera is compatible with them and you haven't tried yet...

[Damn, that video camera can hold a charge if Tatara hasn't tried before now. Or maybe being isekai'd made him forget about the demands of electronics. Cid hasn't had to worry about that before, but now he's forced to consider the age-old problem of batteries and electricity in a world without them.

Mana stones as batteries....... how convenient, actually. He'll have to remember that.]

I, uhhh... [he thinks about it; he's not just making a show of thinking about it, because honestly he left all that stuff to Eta, but maybe he remembers enough both from his own experience and her tinkering...?] I could take a look at it? I feel like it would be pretty different from anything I know, but two heads are always better than one.

I'd probably have to learn more about mana stones, too.

[He's actually more interested in the mana stones, anyway. Having a Tatara-shaped shadow is probably actually mild compared to some of Shadow Garden so maybe he will survive this, unlike his encounters with Wanderer.]
