[ Oh, Lalo absolutely does find it exciting, albeit for extremely deranged reasons. But Ben wouldn't; Ben is a family man with a much more normal life who is still processing all of this. ]

Haha. Don't know about "we", but I certainly have to! I've got a wife and two stepkids. I can't imagine abandoning them permanently. I miss them more than I know how to say already. [ Lies. But he does have unfinished business in his own world; Lalo is curious about what other worlds hold, but until he's able to take bloody revenge on Fring and expose all of Fring's lies, he can't let himself get distracted by anything else.

He does contemplate, though, that if they're able to cross between worlds... then he can go somewhere that has monsters, dragons, weapons his world has never seen. He'd have to be careful about it; couldn't rush into it; would need a plan; would need to be careful who he took; but if he could bring back something like that, from another world to his world, and use them again Fring...

The Chicken Man wouldn't stand a chance. Lalo almost has a revenge boner just thinking about the things he might be able to do.

He can't tell anyone that either, though. None of their business anyway. ]

Your zest for knowledge is admirable, though! Is "ten billion" your favorite number?

But maybe we should worry about keeping ourselves alive first. Then we can worry about traveling to other worlds.

Guess you gotta get back home asap then.

[ BORING but f i n e. ]

My favourite number? Sure, I guess. It's a play on words. Oh but this is auto-translated or whatever, isn't it…

[ He has to think of how to do this. ]

You're American or English or something, right? With a name like Ben. But in Japanese, 100 in 100% is hyaku. Ten billion is hyaku-oku. So it's just an emphasis kind of.

[ He's just a huge nerd who likes to sound like he extra knows what he's talking about; it's a childhood habit he never grew out of. ]

Science is about understanding where we are now and figuring out where we go next so I'm thinking about both. I don't plan to die here or anything. And I don't plan to let everyone else die either.
