[Jade, being a man who understands the value of a good explanation, doesn't interrupt Waver as he breaks down his local magic system. Given that Waver brought up the nervous system, he figured he would be able to understand it well, and it turns out he's right; these Magic Circuits sound like fon slots, were fon slots not natural things in basically everything in Auldrant, from the people to the planet itself. If the activation of fon slots were to cause a similar effect... Jade places a hand on his chin in thought. At the very least, it would make the utilization of fonic artes highly painful.

What Waver says next, about mage society being based on bloodlines, and the way he rolls his eyes about it, gets Jade to smile. Jade, having gotten himself adopted, likewise isn't too impressed by bloodlines, though he does at least value family. That Waver values it even less is telling.

Phrasing this transfer of a Magic Circuit as an organ transfer makes sense as well. To Jade's ears, it sounds like engraving a fonic glyph onto someone, a process that can be fatal if done incorrectly or if the one being engraved onto isn't capable of handling it. Add that to the colorful way Waver describes the experience, and the Necromancer thinks he understands quite well.]


Well, you don't seem to have gone blind or died, so that's something in your favor. If I recall correctly, you have to start the process all over again if you die. [dryly] Just think, you have so much to look forward to if you slip up.
