-”What do you mean ‘it’s obvious’?”

-”Well, if they go that way, they’ll meet the enemy faster and.. No, sorry, just read it in my mind and tell me instead...”



-”Actually, since ever. But I only trained it enough to be able of doing this past month.”

-”Oh, that symposium?”

-”Yeah. It wasn’t a symposium on the sexual repression of small mammals. Sorry to have lied to you?”


-”I.. Don’t think that was the worse lie you told me...”

-”WHAT?! No, that much was true, I do love you.”

-”Then.. How, why..”

-”I had to. I only got permission to talk about it with you today because of the attack.”

-”Obviously.”

-”Government?”

-”Not quite. Private company with DARPA funds.”

-”Hum. Should you be telling me all of this?”

-”I have been authorized to do so, yes.”

-”So... Are there other... Abilities?”

-”Okay.. You look scary doing that face.”

-”Hum.”

-”So?...”

-”FUCK. Let’s go.”

-”Wait, hall 5 is the other way.”

-”I KNOW, LET’S GO.”

-”I follow.”

-”And be quiet now. Don’t think of anything.”

-”How do I do that?”

-”NOT LIKE THAT!”
