Allura flinches when the golden energy envelopes her, but opens her eyes in surprise, taking in a breath, when she feels a burst of revitalization (Like drinking one of Axel's strange, caffeinated beverages, but not so jittery).

When it's finished, she's standing a little straighter, looking up at Moira, "Thank you." It isn't a magical cure-all, but at least it's managed to reverse a little bit of the toll that Allura's magic took on her body, "What was that you did just now?"

"I sprayed you with a small touch of biotic energy. It helps to revitalize the body and will allow for some healing of the system for the next few seconds. In your case, just a tiny restoration of your energy. This is technology I developed in my own world as a result of my research."

Releasing her, she stepped back and put her right hand behind her. Her left hand extended and a small golden spray of mist came out from the palm of her hand where a golden light rested. It was clearer now that it attached to a gauntlet on her wrist.

"This allows for more rapid healing that most methods would allow and can even be applied to healing during combat situations.]

“That seems incredibly useful,” Nodding, even if she isn't sure what all is involved in biotic energy, proof of Moira's claims is as clear as the extra energy she's already feeling. Allura leans in closer when Moira shows her the gauntlet, to get a good look at it (staying out of the direct line of fire, in case anything else can come from it).

“It is a little like the sleep chambers on board my ship- it would boost the user's own natural healing energy to dramatically increase the speed of recovery.” Looking back up at Moira, “I assume this cannot heal what the body cannot already mend on it's own, then?”

No regrowing limbs or anything like that.

"It causes cellular regeneration to happen at an accelerated rate. Perhaps over time it could mend what cannot mend on its own but it would take far more energy than one round I carry in here. However if it were something like the loss of a limb and the limb was nearby I could potentially reattach it. Though, it would be far better to do such things in a lab where the environment is clean and there was time to ensure it was done properly."

She lifted her left hand to study it. "This is best used in the field. As is the other purpose of the device."

Lowering her left hand, she lifted her right now. That dead looking hand had a similar gauntlet on it but there was also a slightly different design to it. And the light on her palm was purple.

"With this I can essentially cause damage to those I recognize as my enemies."

Allura’s expression turns more wary when she appraises the device hooked onto Moira’s right hand. She’s not quite sure how it all works, but if it’s all part of the same device, it’s not hard to assume that the damage-causing portion of it works opposite from the healing — a break down on the cellular scale.

“Are you often in... combat situations?”

Moira said she was a scientist, but science and war were not as clearly cut as some might assume. Especially among Alteans, and she assumed the same was true of other races.

"I prefer not to be. However, sometimes it becomes necessary and in those moments I must be able to defend myself as well as be able to heal whatever team I am with."

And so this was how she'd chosen to do so. Not everyone approved of the methods since draining life wasn't exactly the most morally liked method. However, she wasn't at all about to pay attention to them.

With that said, she did avoid mentioning the life draining for now. If only to make sure she kept this woman on her side a little longer since she found her useful.

She nods with understanding, “Unfortunately, sometimes fighting is unavoidable. It’s better to be prepared in those cases.”

Despite popular opinion, fighting and peace were not incompatible concepts. It’s what Voltron was made for, and why Altean warriors trained so hard, to maintain peace and to protect others.

Another nod, this time at the area around them, “Is there anything else you would like to see? With your healing, I think I have enough energy to do more.”

"Can you will the plants to grow in certain ways? Shapes?"

Could she make them form objects? Create weapons or buildings from them? Or was it just a matter of willing them to grow and nothing else beyond that. Which was impressive enough but Moira wanted to know if there was more to this ability than just that. Something else that could turn it incredible.

Allura shakes her head, “If I can, I have yet to discover how.”

Turning her attention to one of the newer blooms at her feet, she crouches and focuses on trying to get it to grow in specific ways- to make the petals larger, or the stem to grow out of proportion of the rest of the plant, but with no luck. It grows and blooms, but stays within the confines of what one would expect.

Standing up again, “Perhaps with more practice…?”

"Assuming your abilities allow for that. Practice can only achieve so much. However, were that ability to be unlocked I could see it being possible."

And her own mind was already wanting to have samples of the girl so she could see how her genes worked. So she could see about making such a thing possible. Perhaps even more than that.

The things that could be done with alien genes...
