"You're right," he admits, even if there's a but underneath it - because there's a part of him that still has a hard time believing any and every supernatural power in this world comes from entities. But he has no proof, and he doesn't even know if the person he talked to is from this world or not. He hadn't asked.

It's not important, he supposes. What's important is keeping the people who definitely aren't from this world and don't have the luxury of passing as human protected. "I just wish there were another way to do things. Without fear, if that's where it's coming from. But I guess at least we know we have time, if we want to try to figure something out."

Of course, all his ideas had maybe hinged on someone with technical knowledge coming up with something... and they seem very short on people like that, these days.
