Hermann and I had a discussion with...someone and from that birthed a really dumb/brilliant idea. Because plugging our brains into the enemy is a thing that seems to work for us.
We considered building a pons and drifting with the Fate.
[There's a longer than normal pause before he replies, because it takes him a moment to formulate one that's not just "you're insane."]
That is possibly the most insane idea I've ever heard. I don't doubt you could find a way to make it happen, but... Newt, whatever's occupying the Porter right now, it's not Lachesis.
Here. Some kids managed to break in last month, offered it a sacrifice, of all things, and apparently that actually worked, as ludicrous as it sounds. But it claims it's not Lachesis. So this could be a different entity from Earth-α, or something else altogether, we just don't know. I won't say you shouldn't ever try it, but right now it's too dangerous.
How did I miss that? Anyway, thanks. It was a pretty old plan, to be honest, and we didn't fully intend to do it soon. Not off the table entirely, but not a definite thing. Lots to consider.
Frankly, Hermann probably wants to go home more than I do, but if we're going to do an insane thing, he's not doing it alone. Besides, I've got to make SOME contribution to the Porter quest, right? I mean more than lab rats.
