Right behind everyone else who wants to do the exact same thing, moron, though if you find a shortcut to beating the crap outta him I'm eager to see it.

I can turn intangible nimrod. Anywhere is a shortcut as long as it's not shielded.

I wasn't implying a literal shortcut, but while we're on the subject, why don't you use that ability of yours and find this asshole? It'll save us some trouble, especially since you are apparently going to instantly solve this issue as soon as you find him, yeah? I mean, is that really your plan? Just phase in there and punch him out?

Why don't you find a away through the brick wall and go fight the thing that can attack you through your brain?

In case you're incapable of reading? I said "Where do I sign up?" Not "I'm going down there on a suicide mission".

Ironically I've had experience doing that.

Heh. You might as well—hook up a transmitter to your brain, send you into its lair for as long as you last...We might actually get some useful information on how to beat the creature and get rid of a nuisance in the process.

Let's see, in my stay on the ship, I killed multiple giant humanoid roaches, captured two Yeerks including the leader, was involved in fighting off the pirates who were going to sell us all of to be slaves, and in general been pretty helpful.

You on the other hand, haven't contributed ANYTHING to back up your ego, and keep suggesting we sacrifice people without their consent.

Care to tell me who's a nuisance?

That’s an interesting thing for you to say, considering how little you know about me. Now that you’ve done me the benefit of describing your past achievements, why don’t I tell you about mine? You know, since we’re in the mood for sharing?

In my universe I was responsible for ninety percent of all patents submitted in the past twelve years. I had more than 200 well respected biological theses in circulation, most of which I published between the ages of eleven to twenty-three. When I was six years old I pioneered a completely self-sufficient, computer-based immune system that has kept me from getting sick my entire life and brought me back to life on at least one occasion—a simplified version was used in most militaries of developed countries, by the way. Let’s see what else I did…I created a prototype, working interdimensional portal, designed the world’s first compact fusion reactor when I was five, discovered and named ten new elements on the periodic table, made efficient vaccines for forty previously incurable viruses (permanently exterminating fifteen of them)—oh, and have you seen that spaceship frame in the hangar? Yeah, I’ve been designing and building that for the past ten years, from scratch. In several months’ time I would be the first human being to travel outside the solar system. And you know what’s the real kicker? I’m twenty-eight.

So then, child. Do you think my ego is justified now that you know more about me?

I'd like to point out everything I just mentioned? Happened HERE, so I can prove I did it. You need to prove you did it before it's justified.

If you want to go into stuff you and I can't prove? I saved the world multiple times, tricked a guy with complete and total power over reality into turning himself into a ghost so I could catch him, fought and subdued the Ghost King when previously it took several of of the Ghost Zone's more powerful ghost to accomplish, fought and beat my evil future self who had by his time take over the entire world, saved the Earth from a giant asteroid I couldn't touch by coming up with a plan to turn the Earth itself intangible, traveled forward and backward in time, and I did that all within the span of two years.

Everything that happens here will be quickly forgotten as soon as our universes are restored. If we’re forced to combine together to create a new universe, you’ll go down as the mindless warrior, a myth that drooling nerds will write horrible fanfictions and design plotless games over, while I’ll become the creator of civilization itself. At least I have the capacity to look ahead.

But you know what, I’m willing to prove to you that everything I said about my past is true by beating it into your empty skull until it’s the only thing there. If you’re really so intent on defending the ship and all of its inhabitants, then that makes me the bad guy, doesn’t it? You can prove your claims by defeating me proper.

Five non-existent bucks say Allen Brainy, Picard and whoever ends up in charge of the civilian government get the honor of creator of civilization. Mostly because no one likes you.

Funny how some of the most influential people in any world are the ones nobody likes, eh?

Seriously though, your claims intrigue me. I want to see what you’re capable of—which is more credit than I’ve given anyone else on this ship, if that implies anything. Or are you too frightened of the irritable scruffy genius-man to support your honor?

That would be Luthor, not you.

No, see, I don't fight people without a good reason. And "I think you're a jackass" isn't a a good one.

Who the hell is Luthor?

…You need a reason, hmm? Okay, how about if I went into the Pod Caverns and stuck a needle inside one of those stasis chambers? I’ve wanted to figure out the composition of that icky fluid since I woke up covered in it—and if my tests are successful, I could easily figure out a way to manually wake up anyone else without any negative results. It would only cost one person for the lives of several thousand…

Lex Luthor. The prematurely bald guy.

Stacy would smack you into a wall and security would lock you up before I'd even gotten anywhere near you. Especially since this is a public post.

Really, Mister Intangible Badass and Ship Cartographer? If anyone could get there quickest, I would imagine it’d be you.

Yet you still hardly know me! Less than a week after I woke up, I went down to Neuropathy and was able to shut of Stacy’s physical defense grid for nearly forty minutes—Shitface Kirk and the Major can back that claim up, along with roughly a quarter of crew that was watching. That sounds like plenty of time for me to make it down to the Pod Caverns and procure a sample before the tentacles are revived, don’t you think?

Besides, who ever said I didn’t like an audience?

If you do anything to risk the lives of the people on this ship, I will ensure that you are punished for it.

If you even consider doing such thing, I'll have you in the brig so fast your head will be spinning.

We're working on it, Danny. I'll let you know soon, I promise.

Yes.

At the current time, preparations are being finalized. We will and must act soon, but the timing is extremely important to make sure that things go as they should. The "Nightmare King" will be the most vulnerable as it puts its personal influence into attempting to shatter the bindings it currently labors under.

Macho grandstanding helps us not at all.

It was a legitimate question about where to go if I want to help!

Your phrasing needs work.

I would suggest either the Magical Department, for actual help, or a magical place in general since the advice given by the Seer was to band together. One would think that means involving the whole crew.
