My concern is that your enemies might come after you when you're not ready for it.

@Techspert

I’m never not ready. Besides my own innate, awesome capabilities, since the deeper layers of this place are pretty much as good as abandoned, I’ve done some poking around. There are some security systems here I’m shocked you guys never used. This is the one place I’m not concerned about being alone because sneaking in here would be hard.

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

That would be such a strange question to ask if it didn't exclude me.

@Techspert

It’s an ominous question to ask at all, man.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Are you here alone right now?

@Techspert

No. Besides you though? As far as I know, yeah.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Bartering isn't my MO, but clearly humor isn't either.

@Techspert

Everyone misses. Don’t sweat it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Moral support in exchange for starter healing is a great deal as far as I'm concerned.

@Techspert

Mmm… Man, things really do feel better when you don’t look at them as trades.

*Entertains an empty smile*
This isn't the half of it. But I'll find an end to this, as I'm sure you plan to.

@Techspert

It’s not the sort of circumstances I’m glad than anyone finds relatable, but it’s nice to know someone else can empathize.

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Cuts my gaze to the right, accompanied by a head shift in the same direction*
...There have been unforgivable errors in attempts to harm me.

@Techspert

I wouldn’t forgive anyone who did that to me either. I’m with you.

*Folds my arms and stares forward for a few moments, contemplating*
The lines moved. I didn’t. But for those lines and other people’s favors, I wouldn’t be in this situation.

@Techspert

Others crossed your lines then.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Couldn’t have described it better myself.

@Techspert

Crossing lines isn’t what landed you in your current position by chance, is it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

I don’t like exchanging favors these days.
*Raps my fingers against the corner of the doorframe*
There are too many lines that I shouldn’t cross.

@Techspert

That’s entirely your call to make, I guess… Or maybe it isn’t.
