testing and tushanshu bound... eventually... (canon: Chew)

[cibopath]

Does it bother you that you have absolutely no idea what you're doing?

...Of course it doesn't. [S I G H.] Try not to waste any more time than you already have, at least. I don't like that John's alone there. You know how he is.

How is he, exactly?

[cibopath]

John's a good partner and a good friend.

But he's a damn impulsive idiot.

[saved7]

Oh.

Yes, I know people like that. Are you worried he will do anything particularly impulsive?

[cibopath]

He doesn't take well to people with, uh, abilities. [Tony himself being a notable exception.] From what I hear, that place is crawling with them.

[saved7]

That is why he doesn't like me much.

But he is half-human himself.

[IT MAKES NO SENSE.]

[cibopath]

Oh, you've met him? [you have his condolences, truly]

Don't let him hear you say that. And, well, he's technically all human, with... enhancements.

[saved7]

I don't understand the difference.

[Because as far as she could tell, he's literally half human. Physically at least.]

[cibopath]

He was-- you know, he was born human-- there was an accident. It's like he has a prosthetic limb. [Annnnd then some.]

[saved7]

I was born human, and now I am not.

[She is confused, what is the difference?]

[cibopath]

[SIGH.]

Never mind.

What kind of place is this Keeliai, anyway? I've never heard of it.
