"There's these big monsters that wreck a city every few months. Like the one that killed me. We're, uh, not building new cities that fast."

"How many cities have been wrecked?"

Permalink

"...a lot. Sometimes it's more than just a city. Newfoundland. One of the islands of Japan, I forget which one without my bot reminding me."

"I mean, maybe, but it seems like you have your own shit to deal with."

"There are a variety of destructive powers - what sort of thing might work?"

Permalink

"I can give you a while now that we've verified I can pull you back? And by default you can return on your own ideally to spare me the backlash."

Permalink

"Sure. How long does the tag last?"

Permalink

"A bit over three hours on average - never less than one and a half I've noticed and I can feel it weaken before it goes."

She notes the time on her phone, and pushes, thrice. Is there another interstitial void? If so, one more push.
