Strange isn't taking the equipment thing as a knock...mostly because he also knows that he needs better equipment. Granted, he needs an actual job first, but he'll take this one step at a time. Sketchbooks and taking notes can only go so far.

"It's enough data for me as well," Strange nods, as he finishes his quick, slightly sloppy, sketch of the altar. "I'll probably go back to Didymos to start my research, but I suspect I'll start it within a week or so."

He closes the notebook and idly puts his pencil behind his ear before giving Alucard a wry little smile. "Of course, we could always split the list with regards to the appropriate equipment. You grab the brushes and the picks, I'll grab the trowels and the probes."
