[Kovacs trails off. Perhaps it's better if he doesn't rub metaphorical salt into Poe's wounds, at least not any more than Poe would inadvertently do himself. He can only imagine just how Poe is feeling. Impotent is a good way to put it. For someone accustomed to travel as quickly as thought, if algorithms and ones and zeros could be considered such, the time spent reaching a destination must feel exceedingly long.]
There's only room for one of us to be grumpy, but maybe we can find some faster method of travel. Beach bike? Maybe one of those hoverbikes would do.
[Or maybe a hearse? Who knows what would be a fitting vehicle for his companion.] I'm okay. Alive. Not sporting any bruises from everything that happened in Bay City, which I'm pretty grateful for.
