sobriety in terminal velocity

the Aloe plant had his own ideas how things should go down and he did not miss a chance to tell me. by that time the freight train was not only hurtling down the bridge, but it was actually showing signs that even at train wrecks, it was not the best approach. can't even get a derailment right, it taunted, hurtling down. i could listen to both succulant plant and the freefalling vehicle because my grip on time, allowed me to slow it down subhectively. if you saw it, you would see an immobile plant and a horrible accident, which shall have only one victim. but through the powers of concentration, i can talk to plant and vehicle as they groan and criticize.

that's the thing about inanimate ovjects. they have much to say, but only if you can slow space-time. and then they never shut up.

but i do deserve it. even though the diamond heist was dave's idea. i should've known better than to trust an empty amazon box for advice.
