Some time later, Rico and the boss are back at her trailer. She sits back in her chair, eyes half closed, as Rico rants and raves, mostly incoherently, but usually about not knowing what he signed up for or the boss's ludicrous origin stories.

As Rico seems to be winding down or taking a break to gasp for air, the boss waves her hand. "Don't take any of what I said personally, it's just a show."

"The crowds out there, the visitors. Nobody really cares what you are. They're just paying for a story. Something to spread back to the folks at home. Makes 'em seem worldly."

" 'Sides. You can't really fault me for some of that. I mean, what ARE those even about? Doesn't seem helpful at all". She annoyingly and repeatedly gently prods Rico's chest with her wand, transfixed by his wobbling.

Author's Notes:

Hey, don't knock organic scientific horrors. Just because you have some sturdy rocky firmness going on, boss lady.
