Oof. This page totally talks to the audience:

< Greg> That wasn’t a complete summary.
< Naomi> No shit. :P
<@West> [the rest of it]
<@West> I’M PAUL HARVEY, MOTHERFUCKERS! SEE HOW I MENTIONED DAD’S LOKI?!
< Greg> Yeah. Why’d you do that?
<@West> So Raven’s comment a couple of pages back has some more context.
< Greg> o_o
< Naomi> …
<@West> Dude, my dad buried an E-type freighter in solid bedrock up to the con tower. And then left to report in. PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW.
< Naomi> no, they don’t.
<@West> …

Something like that, anyway. I dunno. As usual, it’s late and I’m not really awake!

All this damned exposition – I should, like, find an artist and a writer and put my name on a Daedalus series. Or something.
