56th treasure [text]

When you think of the people you left behind, do you imagine them as they were, or as they would be?

Time back home doesn't flow while we're here. I know that. But we feel its effects, so the brain sometimes just... forgets, I guess? And starts thinking about missed retirement parties.

Having to buy six years' worth of belated retirement presents would suck. And don't get me started about birthdays.

On the one hand, that sounds extremely useful. On the other hand, depending on its range, access to that kind of technology would have made the war far, far worse.

It's like all technology. It helps and it hurts. And anything that helps fighting is going to make a war worse.

In regards to the fight against Hyperion. The car thing mostly helps our side as Scooter hates Hyperion. And despite ...everything about the guy, he's pretty smart when it comes to mechanics.

Smart enough to compensate for 'everything' else, or would it not be enough if he wasn't actively on your side too?
