"Next dimension over is still the most promising idea, I can put them all on different planets but that's inhumane."

"Have you tested whether that works, yet?"

"Write a note."

"Of course."

"I know. Give me a suit and I'll go anyway."

"Okay, so you're willing to try it, so let's find some other people who are also willing to try it."

Legend hesitates, but follows her.

...he will follow too.
