Greetings.
Any still-effected Decepticons are welcome to obtain samples of counter-virus. I may be amenable to providing samples to other effected beings for a price--if they even wish to be cured.
Also, as you may have noticed, my project is finished. If there are any still interested in an...ah...expedited visa, please apply within

Then you know how rare you are. I don't mind telling you to supplement--words are free, after all.
[And that was wonderful, because he used them to make very, very valuable things appear. Well, as often as he could.]

And yet they can be so valuable. Or expensive, depending.
Though I can't say I mind hearing it from time t'time.

But I don't think you expect anything often. Or at all.
So we're set.
