[Not that Lloyd would even care that much, because 'intellectual property rights'? What's that even mean?]
Like, what if there were shoes that could warm our feet up? I mean, not just keep the heat inside, but like there was heat magic put inside? You'd never have to worry about cold toes again!

[Obviously. Lloyd's not even going to argue, because as far as he's concerned, Varrick's already proven his claim of genius in Lloyd's eyes.]
That's amazing! I can't wait to figure out how we're going to build it.
[The blood rushing to his head is starting to get to him, though, so he unhooks his legs from the pole so he can flip back down to the ground. Mana or no mana, that's a trick he can still manage easily enough.]

Yeah, isn't it? It's too bad I can't do magic, or I'd see if I could do it myself.

You think we can really do something like that?

[He'll swing down too and join him on solid ground.]
Of Varrick Industries, you've probably heard of us.
