Let me deal with it, then. I'll throw together something to contain it.
[ It's awful, to have to shove Alucard out of the picture when dealing with the last physical fragment of his own father. But it needs to be done. There are so many things that could go wrong here, and so many things they don't know. Between the selection of weapons and substances that Alucard is not allowed to touch, he can probably make something that will work. ]
I born to deal with that fucking stone, after all.
I expect there will be silver in the lab, I'd be amazed if there wasn't. The notebook has the thing's dimensions, I'd consider constructing a containment case for it through some means.
[No, Alucard, there's no silversmithy here. But there's Sypha and her fire, and that's even better.
And it's...easier to let Trevor take the lead on this. Fewer messy emotions that are placed squarely on Alucard's shoulders. (That's unfair though, isn't it? Even if this counts as squarely Belmont Things. One family cleaning up the mess of another.)]
And there can be additional warding spells and the like put in the case once it's constructed.
If there isn't any, some of the shit I brought can be melted down. You'll need to take them off the index, but I'm sure you'd be happy to see the back of a few of them.
[ He's got a shape in mind for the case already. For the short term, the threads of that net of silver wire that was used to capture Alucard in the first place can be re-purposed and woven into a small bag to collect and move the thing safely. Once it's back here, a hollow container of iron, silvered on the inside and than filled with communion wine, warded with whatever they can manage. ]
Sypha will need to handle wards. Once I'm done with this fucking thing, you don't enter the same room as it.
Editing a record takes maybe two minutes at most. Hardly much work.
[But to the rest of the plan, Alucard nods in steadfast agreement. There are times when his nature makes planning hard and forces him to remain on the edges. He hates it, but safety is the priority. Survival is the priority.]
Understood. We'll use the lab for it's intended purpose then.
We check the rest of the house tomorrow, then. I'll see what your father and Leon left for us to work with. And if everything replaces itself, and what happens to whatever becomes of what's used when it does.
[ Because there's no sense in using materials from here if they just pull themselves out of whatever they're used to create at the end of the day. ]
To the effect on the last one: can you both experiment with a prototype of the case using only the material in the lab today? It'd be useful not only for testing the reset, but for seeing how your idea bears out in crafting what we need to complete this work.
I'm not allowed to walk unsupervised, and you want me to do metalwork.
[ It sounds ridiculous, but it's about the right kind of priorities for dealing the Trevor. He's fucked up walking a lot of times in his life, never working with silver. ]

I can do that.

[TREVOR. He sighs.]
You're back to being an ass. I'd say that your recovery is nearly complete.
