So here's the thing…

We have a lot of work left to do. Those of you who ventured down below got a taste of what we're looking at and hopefully that means we can make better preparations. I'm working on opening a new portal based on your energy readings and getting it to stabilize itself so you aren't stuck down there longer than you have to be. May take a few days, but I'm hoping to get a map drawn up, too.

How many of you have been out to Magatus? You might wanna compare notes…the influence started spreading even further. It's better to bring everything and everyone out there back to the city where we can put up forcefields and I can monitor from here.

So what am I saying? I need two teams, a rescue team and an exploration team. Take some time to decide, figure out your skills, organize and arm yourselves. Assignments will go out when you're ready, and when I'm ready.

Oh yeah…and if you're interested in working for me directly? Send me your résumé.

Wind isn’t infinite. Shelter is a good way to avoid it... Then it doesn’t need to be stopped, it can do as it pleases without touching anyone.

Still has nothing to do with Magatus though.

Hurricanes kill hundreds under the debris of shelter. By the time it is over, there is only destruction.

It has plenty to do with Magatus. It has plenty to do with us, dear Malik. Think a little harder, or I will spoil the surprise for you.

I hate to spoil it for you first but I really, truly, do not care about whatever fake deep bullshit you’re about to say.

You do not like to think either, do you?

Wow. I’m not even going to dignify that insulting question with an answer.

You already have! I was being rhetorical.

Leave me alone.

Is there something wrong with not wanting to think? I do it all the time.

Yes I can tell with your blatant disregard for other people. And then you're going be all like, oh no Malik here's some other self-righteous statement to justify my stupid rhetorical questions let's all talk about nature and I know so much more than you because i'm old you can't be right about anything because of my life experience and because of my life experience there's no other possible way that anyone else could disagree or have different experiences or wants or needs or what the fuck ever but you don't care about that because you'd rather peddle your false feel-good bullshit to other weak minded people you prey upon to make your own self feel better by being some weird old know it all.

You’re right about me being old and weird.

I'M RIGHT ABOUT ALL OF IT

We can be like the wind, Malik. That is all I wanted to say.

FUCK OFF

As you wish.
I will be around, Malik.
