[ It's not video this time for no apparent reason. The reasons are not apparent because you can't see him. It's like a catch-22, just without the catch, or maybe the other twenty parts involved. Maybe even twenty-one. Who knows. ]

Friends, transports, exiles, lend me your engineers. [ Appreciate that stunning wordplay for a moment. ]And your scientists, assistants, researchers, mechanics, and technicians. Anybody who can function in a room filled with things that they sort of understand and not break each one systematically. And pass a basic skills test. You have to actually be able to do the job.

And speaking of that - I'm employing people. Contrast Mechanics is starting up and I need basicaly everybody. So, Exsilium, what've you got?

[motherofnemesis]

eventually they're going to decide you're a threat and try to shut you down
ten to one

[fe_male]

actually they already shot a nuke at us so i feel like that sort of happened already

[motherofnemesis]

a nuke? well that was fast. why a nuke?

[fe_male]

just what they had on hand at the time i guess

[motherofnemesis]

no, why did they need to shoot anything at you?

[fe_male]

alien portal

[motherofnemesis]

that doesn't make any sense without other words surrounding it

[fe_male]

1. they already didn't like us
2. there was a portal
3. we weren't closing it fast enough
4. they decided to just nuke manhattan to be on the safe side
5. i took care of it we still have a manhattan

[motherofnemesis]

what sort of total idiots 'just nuke manhattan' oh my god

[fe_male]

there was 7.4 billion dollars worth of damage to the city as it was, but yeah it was a stupid move.

[motherofnemesis]

what was causing that much damage?

[fe_male]

aliens. little ones and giant fucking space caterpillar whale things, hand to god. and us, incidentally, but really mostly the aliens

[motherofnemesis]

sounds like you're having an eventful universe

[fe_male]

it's not usually that bad, just crazy people and shit. fewer aliens

[motherofnemesis]

what kind of crazy people?

[fe_male]

lightsaber whips, red skinned nazis, bald businessmen, giant lizards. a demi-god here and there. normal crazy people

[motherofnemesis]

interesting assortment, though. must have been fun.

[fe_male]

wasn't involved in all of them personally. what are your crazies like?

[motherofnemesis]

illusionists, shapeshifters, a lot of petty criminals, gangsters.
the occasional attack from another dimension.

[fe_male]

almost sounds like an amateur magic show until you hit the other dimension

[motherofnemesis]

those are the ones that stuck out
i'm sure we had more but that's the heroes department they deal with them

[fe_male]

heroes dept?

[motherofnemesis]

not like a literal one just
there are heroes, that's what they're for, right?

[fe_male]

i'd hope if it was actually a thing it wouldn't sound like a tonka trucks spin-off
not your gang?

[motherofnemesis]

yeah no the actual teams have way cooler names
not really
