"It would best to act as if it is a possibility, then." Elidibus murmers. Whatever their differences, he is not going to dismiss the validity of Urianger's observations. Asking was not just empty words to get a measure of the elezen's willingness to respond.

Outwit, aye. That would be a reasonable expectation to keep. Whether it is necessary here will probably be a question neither of them could truly answer with any honesty other than 'It will always be a possibility they will be at odds here as well.' Likely for far different reasons though.

"Hm. I would not say we arrived together. But we were summoned to this star on the same day. Of that there is no doubt."

The smile is gone. Elidibus is watching Urianger again but this time it is contemplative.

"I will not speak for Emet-Selch, for I know little of his mind on the matter of you and yours." Though Elidibus has his memories restored, it has only been a short time and there is so much of that to process. "But I hope you will consider me as a temporary ally against a common foe. If for no more reason than to deny a potential resource to these Entities."

One thing is very clear. Elidibus has no love lost for the Entities. And he is also aware that the history between himself and Urianger can easily fuel paranoia that would only strengthen the Fears.

He knows this because as they had continued talking, the layers of cotton that seemed wrapped around his senses had peeled away. It is nothing akin to the vibrant power which should be at his fingertips and Elidibus experiences it wax and wane like a dying battery. He does not push it, merely filing it away for future reference and discuss with his colleague at a later date.
