Welp. I'm getting kinda sick of this part of life here. Any old time we can stop with the random vanishings, that'd be stellar.

Isaac Lahey's suite is empty. He's gone. No idea when that happened. Allison Argent also vanished earlier this month. So that's a thing that's happened.

So, now that my abandonment issues have really been given plenty of fuel to last me through at least my mid-life crisis, a question. Last month due to the generosity of Tony Stark, I got my jeep back. Through careful conservation, I've managed to keep her running.

Except now a certain little dial is hovering just above the E on the left, and I'm kinda screwed. Anybody know where a guy can get his hands on some highly-refined petroleum? I'm not picky, the jeep can run on 87 octane, don't need any of that high-falutin' 93 stuff. Because, you know, the back of a giant turtle is probably full of crude oil deposits.

Oh, wait.

...Wow. You mean that absolutely literally. This isn't some 1984 allegory, is it?

Absolutely literally. Flesh and blood to steel and wires. He was a madman. Well, is. He'd just made a fresh bid for domination when I ended up here.

Um. So, wait, you weren't helping him? Whoever "him" is?

Color me completely surprised.

Wh-

Of course I wasn't! He's insane! He's an Overlander and he's insane. Honestly. He wormed his way into being the warlord of the kingdom, dispatching the present warlord and sending him to where I was exiled, and then he launched global, robotic war and crumbled the empire!

I quite severely loathe the man, I assure you.

Tell us how you really feel, Ixxy.

Sounds like this guy's a real winner. Hope he never shows up here. I like my squishy, non-robo guts.

Restraint is a little difficult with the subject of the Doctor, I admit it.

For what it's worth, the man fears me. It is not a boast, simply a fact. He did everything in his power to keep my exile absolute and keep me caged when he did have me contained, but it was for naught. And my magic can dispatch his robots readily. So he is a madman, but he is one that runs scared in my presence.

All the more since I owe him for my stay in his prison chambers.

Dude.

You're monologuing.

I'm explaining!

I thought we were having a conversation, you and I!

Normal conversations typically don't include the phrase "but it was for naught."

Maybe if you're a tiny, uneducated child. Oh look, what have we here.

Hey! I am six full feet of young adult, thank you very much.

Oh yes, excuse me.

Tiny, uneducated young adult. Anyhow, expand your vocabulary is the lesson here.

What were we even talking about before this? Oh, right. The Doctor. And robots.
