Vicki: Boss!!! What happened?? Mindmistress: Where to begin--? I've dodged thunderbolts-- been slammed by a giant psychic fist--gotten second-degree burngs from mystical fireballs-- faced by an uber-mystical serpentine, 'editor'--Vicki: Boss--? Are you crying--? Trembling--? Mindmistress: I--I just faced the Bogeyman-- almost was imprisoned in another reality-- if I'd been put in their cell--- even the 'catwalk' wouldn't form--

Mindmistress: Yes, I'm a little hysterical....yes, I feel like I'm in shock...I had to leave innocent prisoners behind--part of me is Lorelei....and Lorelei's scared of....monsters.Vicki: I've never seen you like this... Mindmistress: No, I'm supposed to be supremely competent---unfailingly confident. Showing weakness...isn't...allowed. ...Being human...isn't...allowed.

Mindmistress: I--can't--forget--as if it just happened...being a child...terrified of monsters...in the dark. ...Oh, well...have a robot retrieve the space-loop shield... Vicki: Why? Mindmistress: Because...
