- You sure you're not a mathematical genius?
- Synergetics Expert
- Surely, if we put our formidable minds to work on these problems, we can spark solutions.
- I'm willing to lend my extensive expertise in kinematic golemancy to the discussion, though I can't stay long.
- Brainstorming rarely solves anything. We have to build a solution from the foundation up.
- I'm telling you, there's no such thing as panstructural disintegral bleeding.
- You're wrong. It's a state distinctly different from panstructural disintegral swelling.
- Do we have to walk all the way?
- Gate traffic is way up. Prices are high and waits are long, and we don't have the time or funds to spare.
- It all started innocently enough. I simply wanted to boost the...
- ...power, yes, but you couldn't possibly have known it would affect the sensors, and so remarkably!
- Ah, but I did know...on some level.
- That's the level where the dung beetles live.
- Halt. You—will—show—your—face.
- I'm not doing anything. I'm on my way to the lab.
- You—are—a—pupil. Curfew—has—sounded. You—will—go—to—your—residence. Now. Now. Now.
- I grow weary of this constant one-upmanship between us and the other labs.
- I agree. The way we squabble amongst ourselves, you'd think we were hylek.
- I found it, the "you know what." It won't be too hard to acquire.
- Shhhh. Keep your voice down. "You know who" could have agents anywhere. Well, where is it?
- Not here. Meet me later, "you know where." We'll be able to talk freely then.
- How's business?
- Excellent. Compared to the survivor camp, customers here have a lot more cash.
- Not to mention a far more convivial attitude.
- Refugees don't often have currency with them, but if you take markers, you'll do well.
- Your best bet is the Luminates Plant. Once the krewe chiefs let you do business, the sky's the limit.
- I heard your experiment was successful. How'd you do it?
- Can't talk. We're entering phase two now.
- I need to go to the lab today.
- Pop, you don't work at the lab anymore. Remember? You retired.
- Idiot. I go to the lab in my head. We're changing the world there.
- I'm particularly fascinated by the fact that the world's smallest sentient race is also its most intelligent.
- What fascinates you about it? It seems fairly elementary to me. We're the top of the evolutionary chain.
- We're what happens when you eliminate weakness and waste. We're concentrated magnificence.
- Are you kidding me? Pit a fully integrated golem against any ettin, and the ettin is...
- ...going to get pounded. I know. But what if it was a fully integrated ettin? Then what?
- Some idiot miscalculated the currentificator settings again.
- Good work. I've long known it takes many lab assistants to equal my genius. That idiot will probably be you next time.
- But how do you tell friendly from foe-ly?
- Trial and error? If a red hylek tears your arm off, you know to avoid the red hylek.
- We used to create and learn. Now, we huddle and defend. This isn't a lab, it's a war camp.
- Only until our unruly neighbors are under control. Then we can return to what we do best.
- I have an advanced degree in applied thaumaturgical toxicity. Why should I choose Hydrone over other labs?
- There are no others. Incinergen deals in guesswork; the Opticalium are just too critical.
- If unrepeatable experiments and unvarnished plagiarism are what you're after, ours may not be the lab for you.
- Hey, you! Yeah, you! You haven't trained enough to face the dangers down this road!
- Are you insane? Don't go that way until you've practiced against smaller foes!
- Some advice: gain more experience fighting smaller creatures before you head that way.
