"I wasn't expecting you to have it all figured out. The war with our evil god took years and years to plan. Woulda been nice if they just wanted - something we could just give them. But it's kind of tricky when people just want to be evil."

"I guess so."

"What they did with our evil god is he's locked away with a really good virtual reality system so he can pretend to torture people or whatever, all the time. And he gets visitors, because it's not great for people, having only virtual reality to interact with."

"That sounds... very considerate of you."

"I mean, I didn't have anything to do with it personally. But - I wouldn't want you to worry that we'll - hurt your coworkers more than we need to to stop them, or something -"

Talking with one of her alts!
