"Hey, Technus!"
"IT IS I, TECHNUS, MASTER OF ALL TECHN-"
"Cut the crap, I need to ask you a favor."
"HA! WHY WOULD I, TECHNUS, SWORN ENEMY OF THE GHOST CHILD—"
BZZZZT!
"WHY WOULD I, TECHNUS, SWORN—"
BZZZZT!
"WHY WOULD I—"
BZZZZT!
"WOULD YOU STOP THAT?"
"I can't! No matter what I do—"
BZZZZT!
"—it just keeps happening—"
BZZZZT!
"—and it won't—"
BZZZZT!
"—freaking—"
BZZZZT!
"—stop!"
BZZZZZZZZZZZZT!
"HM. I SEE YOUR PROBLEM!"
BZZZZT!
"Yeah, no kidding, Sherlock!"
BZZZZT!
"I'm shooting electricity everywhere—"
BZZZZT!
"—and I don't know how to stop it—"
"YOU ARE COMING INTO YOUR ELECTRIC CORE!"
"... What?"
"YOUR CORE, CHILD, YOUR CORE! IT IS THE VERY CENTER OF YOUR BEING! ANYTHING ELSE THAT IS REMOVED CAN BE GROWN BACK— YOUR CORE CANNOT, FOR IT IS THE VERY MACHINE THAT TELLS YOUR GHOST FORM WHAT FORM IT MUST TAKE!"
"Okay... but how does that relate to my problem?"
"IT IS QUITE SIMPLE! YOU SEE, WHEN CORES MATURE, THEY CAN CONTROL DIFFERENT FORMS OF ELEMENTS! SOME CONTROL ICE; SOME CONTROL FIRE; OURS CONTROL ELECTRICITY!"
"Oh, that's great. How do I keep my core from killing everyone I meet?"
"YOU'RE DOING IT ALREADY!"
"What? No I'm not. I'm getting lectured at by you if I'm doing anything."
"YES, YOU ARE! AFTER ALL, NOT ONCE HAVE YOU EXPELLED ELECTRICITY DURING THIS LEARNING EXPERIENCE CONDUCTED BY ME, TECHNUS, MASTER OF ALL THINGS ELECTRICAL!"
"Wait, what?"
BZZZZT!
"Wow, you're right! I guess you really are a buzzkill!"
"THEN I, TECHNUS, WILL BE YOUR 'BUZZKILL'!"
"..."
BZZZZT!
"IS THAT NOT CORRECT USE OF THE TERM?"
"..."
BZZZZZZZZT!
"... AS THE KIDS SAY, 'WHATEVER'."
BZZZZT!
"NOW LISTEN CLOSELY, GHOST CHILD! FIRST RULE: NEVER INTERRUPT ME, TECHNUS, MASTER OF—"
"What?!"
BZZZZT!
"Even when we're fighting?"
BZZZZT!
"That is so not fair—"
BZZZZT!
"—you've gotta be kid—"
"AHEM."
BZZZZT!
"..."
"..."
"... Fine."
"FIRST RULE: NEVER INTERRUPT ME, TECHNUS, MASTER OF TEACHING GHOST CHILDREN ABOUT ELECTRIC CORES, WHEN I AM TEACHING YOU!"
"... Fine. I can do that."
BZZZZT!
"... Maybe."
