HAMIFI: They also said that your PsyOP was going haywire. That you were stumbling and knocking into every wall and end table in the building!∞
HAMIFI: Oh gods, you don't even have your glasses on.∞
HAMIFI: You're lucky I keep spares.∞
SESTRO: ∞i did what?
SESTRO: ∞i don't remember any of that.
HAMIFI: Are you lucid now?∞
SESTRO: ∞i— i think so?
HAMIFI: Then tell me what just happened up there.∞

HAMIFI: We're running late as is, since you apparently thought it a good idea to give our janitors more of a reason to demand leave.∞
SESTRO: ∞and i would grant it, too.
HAMIFI: Hah.∞
HAMIFI: ... ∞
HAMIFI: I'm sure you have enough thoughts swirling around in that oversized think pan of yours as it is, but I want you to retain one more for me.∞
HAMIFI: Look back on it later, even.∞
