[ ...In all that excitement, and he missed the answer to the question not that far from his face.
Red's heard about the crystallisation process some go through, but he's not sure if he's ever seen before. It doesn't feel like it then in that moment, that sharp small slip of light making him squint as much as the entire rest of the state, surreal for what it was to see, bizarre and yet...right there. Real. He wants to get a closer look; not just at the crystal, but at the man encased inside it.
...But approaching without a thought for the three porrings in front of him would be an inconsideration he doesn't want to give, especially with how upset Xiong appears ... and how the other two must be feeling as well. Red shifts himself, first to kneel in position than to get up fully, and to allow a calm to roll from him, a gentle reassurance -- and a voiceless message, all coming from a use in dunamis he had only been able to learn through Lu Meng's efforts in helping him to understand and grasp it. ]

But Red then extends out an arm towards Xiong, looking over to the other pair. ]
You can climb on me if you wanna keep an eye on me. Just not the face this time, okay?
