Destroy them. It will be easier now, before they are born.

Such a destructive creature.

Destroy what would destroy you.

Tut tut. You have no idea if it'll destroy you.

In fact, little whip-wielder that you are, I'm sure you could tame the beasts and keep them as pets.

I have no proof it will not. I will proceed with prejudice.

As you always always do.

But don't you ever feel like that stance gets shopworn? Why not cut loose and watch the City sizzle instead? It's not as if you owe it anything.

No.

No, you don't owe it anything? Or no, you won't cut loose because you're afraid?

[ Sigh, Karl. Just. Sigh. ]

No, I will not change my stance simply because you are bored of it.

Hey, no! It's going to be my chick!

There is no guaranteeing you can control whatever gestates within.

I'm sure it'll be fine. I've got nuclear fusion, so I can blow it up if it attacks me.

And to what effect on the city?

Perhaps it goes without saying, but I am in total agreement.

Did you find one?

I did, but it's been dealt with.

Good. I will continue the 'hunt.'

[Fucking Easter.]

I'll dispose of any I come across as well.

There are too many who believe that they will be receiving a docile pet.

They'll be in for an unpleasant surprise when the things grow beyond small dog sized.

Even a small creature can be deadly beyond measure.

True, and I highly doubt that these creatures will stay small.

I will exterminate them, either way.

I doubt I need to tell you to take appropriate precautions, but I will anyway.

I will do whatever I must.

I think you more or less always do. What you want, that is.

It is not always about wants.

No? What's it about, then?

Protecting others from their own idiocy.

Perhaps some people should simply accept the consequences of their own idiocy rather than be protected. How else will they learn?

We learn nothing in death.

What about grievous injury?

[He's kidding. Kind of.]

Acceptable, so long as they do not interfere with one's duties.

[She's not.]

Destroy them how?

In any way possible.

Did you destroy yours?

Yes. And nothing remains.

[harsh.]

Let's see if the others follow your example.

They rarely do.

Shame. [or not. we'll see soon enough.]

Yes. It really is.
