"Thanks. It's just more of the same. You are my only real friend, here, and most of the ones I used to have are busy with their own lives. I don't want to bother them, and I feel... less than grounded here."

"But I am making money, having fun, and not unhappy. Just... floaty."

"Oh, it will be more than that. Faster movement, means being able to anticipate what someone else will do somewhere else, and see more, and learn more, and communicate more. It means... I will be able to help more."
