"Protection from what?" It wasn't as if Glitch was going to flail about if someone was trying to help him. And apparently he really did have not only dirt in there, but mushrooms as well, meaning the dirt had been in there a while.
Glitch had long since stopped pulling once things had been 'explained' to him, despite the fact he didn't exactly know what he was being told was the truth or not; and it wasn't as if he could honestly tell. "I wasn't always this way you know, at one point in time I was higher up in the palace than anyone else and I didn't have any memory issues... well at least I don't think I did anyway. I do know they took my mind for what I knew, but whatever that was is anyone's best guess." He had begun rambling, not really fighting having the debris removed from his head while allowing full view of the darkness within. Despite the fact one could see in, it was as if whatever the hole was swallowed the light beyond a certain point.
"I'm sure you've told me this before since you know my name, but what's yours?" the feeling of someone else putting their hands into his head was rather unnerving, but it didn't hurt in the least so long as they were not yanking at anything.
