[He doesn't know. In theory, Haruaki could help by going to the castle, but Oda doesn't think his friend is suited to danger like that. He wouldn't ask it of him. He's not going himself.]
Dolph is half machine, so...the power outages are [Killing him.] affecting him too...
[ That's hard. That's scary. If this is someone Odasaku cares about enough to live with them, then it must be really terrifying to see them hurting in a way he can't help. ]
We need someone like Takahashi-sensei, but for machines instead of medicine. There has to be someone like that here, right?
[ Haruaki claps a hand over his shoulder, gentle and grounding. ]
You should go be with him. You can leave the rest up to us, okay? [ Not that he's going into the castle, but– well. Maybe? ] Sometimes, the way to help someone is by making sure they aren't alone when they're suffering.
[Haruaki's words are comforting for how true they are. Oda finds that he needs the comfort - more so than that, that he needs to be with Dolph. He's rarely felt so desperate to be next to someone.

I don't know. If there was, Dolph would have said something. [Wouldn't he have...?]
I don't know if this can be fixed with technical skills. They're talking about going to the castle. Corrupted magic again.

Please call me if you need someone to look after you too, okay?

Thanks, Abe-sensei.
[He stands up from where they've been sitting, sandwich still in hand.]
I'll see you around.
