[It is what it is; Crane was never physically gifted at the best of times, even before he was mauled by Killer Croc and lost a chunk of his leg. Without his toxin in one form or another, or failing that, a gun, there's not much Crane can do in a melee except get tossed around like a ragdoll. There's no point dwelling on that fact.]
My previous occupation relied in no small part on observation of others, so I believe I will come out of this with useful data. Perhaps I may even attempt to engage one or two of the Pleroma in conversation, if they appear willing to tolerate it, and learn even more.
But I have no intention of dying. And with any luck, come our next engagement, I will have more to offer.
Ideally, I shall offer the Pleroma their own worst fears and deepest terrors.
[He smiles thinly, and not pleasantly, and a sense of... anticipation.]
