[Rex opens his mouth to protest once more, tongue hanging in the balance. If he'd have listened to his own naysayers, he would have been dead over ten years ago. Hell, he still has so many. Just twenty minutes of actively ingesting the comments from reddit-trolls and losers with cheeto-stained fingers would have him jumping out the window... That is, if HQ had them.

He can't quite bring himself to admit it, however.]

Now I've got no idea how long I'll have to wait.

I guess I'm just kind of... Embarrassed?
