Felix grimaces where he's facing the road - the exact details of the battle itself, but certain fragments are hazy and confused most of the time, but certain fragments have a way of coming back with brief and unpleasant clarity. Like the feeling of that phaser blast hitting him (them). Brief as it was, he can't make fun of any weapon that could hit a powered-up proto-lich like a charging minotaur.

"You might appreciate knowing, Jim," he says over his shoulder, "if you have to destroy it, you won't be killing it. Only destroying its physical form. When that happens it'll be banished from this plane, but eventually it'll re-emerge in the Oblivion planes again. I try to avoid doing that, but- it's not as bad as it might look."

The others might think nothing of it- very few Nirnish people would, but Jim is not a man to take it well if he's forced to kill. Felix wants to give his husband what reassurance he can.
