And here I thought she simply didn't like you.

[ He's joking. Too bad humor doesn't carry well through text. ]

Nonetheless, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Dr. Ratio. I do hope you've been settling in alright.

[curingidiocy]

Perhaps. Most do not like my candid manner of speaking.

[ He would not be surprised... he's also very used to it, and doesn't care. So. ]

As best as one can in these circumstances. Though I severely disapprove of the method by which they are obtaining recruits, this planet is in genuine need of aid, and I intend to provide that—if LILITH would stop being foolish and provide me access to their research.

[ He's going to complain about this forever, because LILITH is being so stupid it's pissing him off. ]

[frostfist]

[ good luck with that, buddy ]

You and most others here. How's that going, by the way? Everyone I spoke to seemed quite keen on shooing me away without so much as a second look.

[curingidiocy]

Then your experience is comparable to mine. They have no desire to share their knowledge. Idiots, the lot of them. If they do not intend on making use of my intellect, then they are wasting my time. A Galaxy Ranger, or perhaps even a Knight of Beauty would have been a better use of their resources.

[frostfist]

We did have one of those here before, actually. A Knight of Beauty, that is. Interesting fellow, though he lost me halfway though his speech about his goddess.

[ argenti, you will be missed..... ]

What's your area of expertise, if you don't mind me asking?

[curingidiocy]

I have expertise in a variety of subjects: mathematics, physics, biology, medicine, engineering, philosophy and natural theology, among others.

[ Yep, this guy is a genius. But not a Genius, unfortunately. ]

[frostfist]

'Among others.'

[ so this guy is a smartass, got it. ]

I'm surprised you haven't been able to land yourself more access given your superior intellect.

[curingidiocy]

It is enough to know that I am more than capable of assisting LILITH with their efforts in researching the kaiju and their effects on the environment.

And that is why they are dimwitted morons. Knowledge is meant to be shared, especially with those capable of understanding and putting it to use for the betterment of humanity. They only stand to gain if they cooperate with me.
