he mad

[There's a livestream of a bit of ranting and some holding cells that cuts off before Zed speaks.]

Someone give me a good reason I shouldn't just blast everyone with darkness and be done with it.

Look, it's not like they'd be able to trace it to me. Just a freak blackout.

You're expecting them to basically be stupid, Zed. They aren't, I assure you.

[whydoyoushine]

They were stupid enough to think they can contain me.

[professorwolf]

You're mistaking ignorance for stupidity. They aren't the same thing at all. The authorities not knowing what you're capable of when you're a stranger to this world doesn't make them stupid, and I dare say once they learn of the things you can do, they'll find ways to counter them.

[Stop him? Like by turning on a string of Christmas lights to distract him?]

I'm too good to be countered.

[professorwolf]

Perhaps. But you don't know what these people can do here, so if you simply assume they are harmless, you'll be doing the same thing you're accusing them of doing. I doubt you want to do that, or you'll have to call yourself "stupid", too.

[How dare you use his own logic against him?]

Come on, it's the eighties.

Worst they can do is throw a fax machine at me.

[professorwolf]

[He will totally use Zed's own logic against him. And anything else handy, too.]

It's not our eighties. Mine didn't have aliens. Yours had rainbow trains. We don't know what they have and don't have here.

I've got all my overlay's knowledge, though. There's that, he doesn't remember anything worth all this fuss.
