I'm not playing this game. You either trust what I have, or you don't. That's on you, and I'm not wasting my time waiting for you to unclutch your pearls.

[brat]

Someone mentioned you were aware of a chemical substance called Shimmer.

You've already made it clear you have no intention of sharing what you know.

I see no reason to continue this conversation, when you've already lied.

[cantilevers]

I am aware of it, yeah. I've even been on the journey that is taking it.

[brat]

Yet you claimed to only know it by definition of the word.

[cantilevers]

I wrote I didn't know much, not that I didn't know anything.

[brat]

Can you tell me more about it?

[cantilevers]

It's purple; it's liquid; it glows, and consuming it is simultaneously the best and worst experience.

How did you come to know about it?

[brat]

I was informed that it may come into play in the future.

How did it impact you?

[cantilevers]

From who?

I grew huge and mean. It technically saved my life. It has exceptional healing qualities, but the side effects from the version I took wasn't worth it.

[brat]

Do you believe it's worth the risk in having it here?

[cantilevers]

I'm not of the opinion we have a choice. It will arrive whether we like it or not.

[brat]

That wasn't what I asked.

[cantilevers]

I don't know. Apparently the stuff I took was the worst of the worst.

[brat]

( well. it's more useful than nothing. )

There is a drug I am familiar with back home, called Venom. It, too, causes those who takes it to become large and mean while also enhancing strength, durability, and reflexes. But it is extremely addictive, and causes debilitating withdrawal symptoms when one stops taking it.

Would you consider their descriptions similar?

[cantilevers]

Similar yes.

Is Venom here?

[brat]

No.
None of us are that stupid.

[cantilevers]

Good to know. If it comes, it will be promoted as medical treatments or augmentation for combat.

[brat]

Lovely.

( hopefully, he can read the sarcasm. )

Thank you for your slightly better than useless answer.

[cantilevers]

That's more gratitude than I expected from you. So long, kiddo.
