Claire's foresight was impressive. Her words did not carry the tone of youth attempting to emulate wisdom and he did not dismiss them out of hand.

Her fury was also expected. Tony wished to lessen the pain as much as he could, but the process usually required some sacrifice, and he did not say the pain would be entirely physical.

Claire's anger was the least of his concerns though. Her answers revealed an understanding and acceptance of her circumstances that was beyond his capability. Without being able to show her - or even use the power at all - it was unlikely he would be able to break down the barrier of her mind.

Nonethless, he would do what he could. With an unsteady heave, Tony stood. "I don't know much about fate or destiny. Neither have been kind. However, I know something about control. These Circles you use are like chains binding the power. It is holding you back. The power - whatever it may be - is something you must ben
d to your will."

Tony raised a hand as his voice faltered and trailed off, his brow furrowing. The pain had subsided already, surely the episode was over? Then why...?

The world lurched around him and spun like a top. Numbness spread throughout his body and warmth crept into his muscles like whisky straight from the bottle.

An odd thing to think...It was not quite right...

His mind drifted and his thoughts broke off and faded. His eyes grew heavy, the room conspicuously silent. His body willed him to rest, to succumb to the lure of drowsiness that pervaded his mind.

A part of him realised something was not right, that he should not give in, but it was fleeting and soon he closed his eyes to meet the sweet embrace of darkness.
