Jordan pauses to look around, then takes a deep breath. "I love the scent of ozone and four-dimensional anomalies... you know, that fresh scent of reality on the brink? I should find a way to make air fresheners scented like that and sell to science types."

"Go for the air freshener, getting anything through the FDA will make you feel like leveling D.C." says Robo as he fishes a visitor pass on a lanyard out of a drawer, "Here, this'll make sure the doors all work and what have you."
