"Bad idea," Dane replied to Tabitha, shaking his head. "The logistics of escape - getting out from beneath two pairs of watchful eyes and then out of this facility itself aside, that's still a very very bad idea. There's no hope for return to a normal size then, you see."<br/><br/>He frowned, briefly contemplating that. "That's alone, on the streets, and mere inches - or just an inch for you - tall. Bad place to be. Assuming no one just grabs you and runs off with you to do whatever, there's all sorts of wild animals."<br/><br/>"We need a better opening. One that gets access to a means to returning to normal size," he continued, then looked to Jimmy. "And since only two of us are getting sold right away, we need to decide who's going to stay here."<br/><br/>He pretended to not overhear Juliet, knowing that that line of inquiry could only go bad places not worth worrying Tabitha and Jimmy with yet.
