Sheena doesn't even realize what she'd forgotten to mention until Zelos's voice lifts in that incredulous way.
"Oh," she says. Right, that's kind of an important detail, huh? She hadn't meant to make it sound like it was something he'd need to worry about, and there's a sheepish note in her voice as she continues. "No, I'm not in any danger from it. That's what the key crest is for," she says, traces the metal of it with a finger. "Lloyd would be better at explaining how they work, since he's the one who knows how to make them, but exspheres can't hurt their user with one equipped." She pulls a face, something like a rueful grin before he looks away. "It is pretty messed up, though."
With her hand freed she relaxes a little further, more comfortable than curled in on herself as she leans back onto her other hand, attention still on Zelos rather than the setting sun.
Sheena shakes her head at his question. "We're not born with them," she says. Since it's a dream, she sits up again, twists the key crest just so that it detaches from her skin. She'd rather not do this in the waking world - after over a year of use she's used to the sensation of the exsphere and key crest actually being embedded in her skin - but it's fine here, just a faint echo of what it had felt like to put it on in the first place rather than any real discomfort. Sheena lifts it free, shows it to Zelos. That's the biggest difference between exspheres and core crystals, she thinks, and this is the best way to show that.
Soon they'll both be fuckored
