"Hey, all I heard was this woman talking in my head telling me to go see the others. And I was- kind of- distracted by being naked and covered in goo. And thank you so much for your confidence in my abilities."

He paused, thinking over what he was just told. If he didn't have much of a reaction it was because he was still convinced this wasn't real.

"Ohhh wait, I see. You must be a part of my subconscious telling me that I have some deep seated insecurity about my ability to defend myself."
He rubbed his chin. "This is all starting to make sense now."
