"If you could read minds, kid, we would be in a whole lot of trouble." Saguenay shook his head. He did not want to fight. This kid hadn't done anything overtly aggressive but... He stole energy and hurt people. That was a pretty clear case of right and wrong by any standard, he reckoned. But he was just a kid and that had so far restrained Saguenay.
s**t, he hated this get-up and the baggage that came with it. Why couldn't it be easier?
"Look. There is no point in getting cranky with me. I was just asking. Then I couldn't help but point out that you're looking at human beings like a rancher looks at his cattle. You know. Thin the herd but don't weaken it because you're going to need it to keep going for a long time. That's all I'm saying."
