Alright, lemme make sure I got this exact. We've been rounded up to fight in some dad-blamed future battle, and in the meantime we're supposed to sit around and twiddle our thumbs. Guess some things never change, huh?

Look, I got sympathy, I really do. You have terrific taste, bringing me here. I'm all aces. And hang, I hate to say no to a lady. Some of you have to be ladies, right?

[ Cough cough. Ahem. ]

But I'm all booked up. I got a date with Hitler and his Nazi crum-bums. I can't stick around for this.

Three hours fifty one minutes.

Wow, you're keeping a really accurate count.

voice;

[deadthenred]

I just got a sense of it, that's all.

voice;

[nyktelios]

That is a seriously good sense of time.

So you must be from, what, the middle of the 1900's?

voice;

[deadthenred]

[ He's a bit less brash-sounding, about this. ]

It's November, '42.

[nyktelios]

That was even before computers, wasn't it? You figured out the tablet pretty well though.

voice;

[deadthenred]

I've seen weirder stuff.

voice;

[nyktelios]

What sort of weirder stuff?

voice;

[deadthenred]

Well, I've been to Russia.

voice;

[nyktelios]

Russia's weirder than here?

voice;

[deadthenred]

Haven't been here long enough to really tell.

I been to Antarctica too. And I've piloted a plane from Atlantis. I don't spook so easy now, I figure.

voice;

[nyktelios]

Wait, Atlantis? Did I hear you right there?

voice;

[deadthenred]

What, they don't got an Atlantis where you're from?

voice;

[nyktelios]

I'm pretty sure not an actual one, just a myth. What's yours like?

voice;

[deadthenred]

Near as I can tell, it's full of poppin' mad blue people.

voice;

[nyktelios]

Seriously? Blue people? Are they mermaids or something?

voice;

[deadthenred]

No tails. They're just blue.

voice;

[nyktelios]

Does anyone know why they're blue or is it just a thing?

voice;

[deadthenred]

Well, maybe, but if you ask about it they get all burned up.

[ He says with a precise sample size of one. ]

voice;

[nyktelios]

Maybe everyone just keeps asking and they got tired of it eventually? I can't believe you've actually got Atlantis, that's so cool.
