Red Mage | I honestly wonder what you guys would do without me. |
Black Mage | (thinking) Enjoy life? |
Red Mage | Not only did I devise a method to save our lives using the meager resources available... But I was immediately able to adapt these plans to the temporary loss of Fighter. |
Fighter | I think the cold has slowed the liberal flow of my blood. |
Black Mage | Yeah, it's also going to give us hypothermia unless Captain Big Mouth gets to the point. |
Black Mage | Or do you plan to keep us alive by exposing us to your particular brand of hot air? |
Black Mage | Oh man, that's a classic. I pity whomever I'm with the next time I'm freezing to death. |
Black Mage scribbles his little quip on a piece of note paper. | |
Red Mage | Well-- |
Black Mage | Wait! |
He continues to scribble. | |
Black Mage | "...of hot air." Okay, go on. |
Red Mage | Right. So, based on the principle of hot air being hot, as Black Mage alluded to, I took it upon myself to investigate the source of hot air as a concept. |
Red Mage | Long, brilliant story of analytical genius short: Heat comes from energy. the greatest source of energy is fusion. |
Red Mage | So, in a stunning leap of mental power, I constructed our own fusion generator out of what I could find. |
Thief | There's nothing but ice for thousands and thousands of miles. |
Red Mage | How else do you propose to create cold fusion? |
