Back in his old job, he used to be sent out on all sorts of missions all alone. Then, on missions where there were other people, if you didn't listen to him, he'd explode you on the spot. But there isn't anyone you'd rather be on a squad with, since he's ultra reliable and does it all!
[ he belatedly comes to a realisation. ]
Ooh. Those are all truths. Should I say you add that you eat people if they get you angry enough?
[ he really does not believe this is going to happen... but thorns has to return to his actual work now, so he can't think about whether or not elysium will listen!!!! to him for that much longer without distraction. ]
i just think it'd be funny if he got to thorns' room first and swivels from his chair the moment he comes in. imagine it's not thorns and he punks juana. hewwo. ]
[ thorns is always running around, and since elysium has been in hiding this whole time, it makes it difficult to actually have a conversation that lasts longer than a few minutes. ]
