"The constant violence and destruction parahumans inflict on each other and the world at large. It's hard to list them all."

"Fair enough!"

"Maybe I'll write a list next time I'm Elsewhere."

Permalink

"Getting things in order is unlikely to hurt, at least."

Permalink

"What about you? Anything flashing and urgent that I should squint at?"

He laughs. "Not as such."

"I guess I have enough on my plate already." She bounces on the balls of her feet. "Don't you have evil deeds to be doing?"

Permalink

"Dastardly feats of terror," he agrees. "Though sometimes it's good to leave them in suspense."

Permalink

"Fair enough. So where is this Incredible Hulk guy? Or is he going to keep me waiting too?"

"Oh, he won't. Come." And he leads her to a cell, currently containing a weeping man who flips into rage as soon as he sees them.

She stares at him for a long moment, curious beyond measure, and walks closer.

"Do you wanna fight? And get out of this cage."

Permalink

He throws himself back. "No! I'll hurt people!"

Permalink

"Not where I can take you. It's completely devoid of people and it's literally impossible for you to hurt me there."

Permalink

"Where?"

Permalink

"I call it Elsewhere. It's another dimension that reflects this world. You can't stay there forever, not without going insane, but for now..."

Permalink

" - Maybe. A bigger cage."

Permalink

"The world is a cage, lovely. It's up to you."

Permalink

"Yes. I'll go with you, and your world can be my new cage."

Permalink

She pauses. "Is that what you want?"

Permalink

"I don't want to hurt people. I don't want to be out of control."

Permalink

The whispers push down on her, painfully, screaming. His words resonate something deep inside her.

"Okay."

Permalink

"Can you give me better control, out of that world?"
