Well, I think that marks the conclusion of our little tête-à-tête? I'm a little afraid that if we kept going I might, well, break you. So, exit stage right then, if you please. You're hardly a match for, well, my glasses, let's say. Perhaps this is a blessing?

We talk about "survival of the fittest" a lot but all that really means is the skilled live and the unskilled die. Since you're clearly in that second group, maybe pick your fights a bit more carefully? Do you understand what I'm saying? It's never going to matter how much you "want it" when you're up against someone who can kill you with a sneeze.

You are, clearly, nothing more than a pawn, so I must ask that you complete your task flawlessly. Isn't that, after all, the entire point of a pawn? To be used by a greater power? Remember, sacrifice and contribution are different things.

It would be less than desirable if you went missing during this phase, so let's call this "insurance." Don't think this means you're indispensible, though--far from it. I enjoyed our little bout of fisticuffs but now it's time for me to get back to work. What's with that look? You should be thanking me. Next time I might accidentally hit a little too hard.

Woo! How shocking!
|
|
Woo! You're using live rounds!

Fast, long range...but I could never be defeated by someone who's so specialized, it doesn't matter how good you are at it. I'd have explained that before you started, but you're not very good at comprehension, are you?
|
|
A shame. If you really were anything akin to me, perhaps we could have become friends. Then again, you would need an IQ of more than 200 to meet the minimum criteria.

He hasn't noticed, but he's reacting to my actions... If this is some sort of elevated mental state that bypasses high-level processing I'll need to revise my theory again.

Interesting. Difficult to comprehend, but that's not the same as incomprehensible. Which is good, because that would pave the way for chaos, which I find... very distasteful. Yes, avoidance is the best future strategy.

We haven't been able to determine your true form. I don't particularly care about what makes you special, but if you don't have a script I must ask you to kindly exit the stage.

The existence of your friends and family does not give you strength. Let me ask you this: Did you lose because they weren't enough? Sounds like an excuse to me.

I do not understand humans who are motivated by love. A person is born, lives for a number of years, and interacts with up to eight billion people. What proof is there of something they can't even define?
|
|
Being unable to follow something with one's eye, and being unable to see that thing are not equivalent states. So long as I can verify a thing's existence, I can catch it.

|
I might not look it, but I'm a government official as well. We're both only a part of a much larger picture, so why don't we move past flaunting our loyalty and dedication?
|
|
Don't worry. I have everything under control. Forget your doubts and let yourself loose.
|
|
I have a difficult time understanding the motivation of something with a goal they don't pursue. If you've decided to take the outsider role, could you please stop interfering in human affairs?
|
|
You returned from the Backyard alive, and it seems you can sense some of my abilities. I need to finish my work before that becomes a threat.

You want to gather as much information as you can, then sort through that to gain insight. If you aren't looking, then you're not seeing, and you're not getting all the information you can.

Ah Conclave, you've really left a mess... I understand the minute details of your plan may not need to be carried out to the letter, but letting Zato run free is just...sloppy. I'll have to dispose of him next.
