Glacius certainly has noticed it, and all the other signs of his partner's struggling health lately. As such, he responds in a careful but up front manner, "I'll be honest, Carlisle, I don't think you can or should be using only your own energy unless it is a dire emergency. The Mote is there to keep you nourished, and so that you don't have to wear yourself down as much."

The alien puffs a little breath through his nostrils, though he is apparently thinking on the clergyman's words. His people are taught to be wary of corruptive influences, but... can he really call himself a protector or a partner if he shies away from this while Carlisle risks his own energies? "Well, it would be even worse to expose only your own, as we have just said. So I'm not sure there's another option in this case. Besides, my energies are strong and pure... there's a good chance that they will be able to resist this, yes?"
