You made the right call there. It feels good. Pure.

About what?

I'm talking about your zero tolerance policy toward the mania of Narco! You're in the right there. Powerful stance. Would you like to take it up a notch? Would you like to become an anti-narcomania zealot?

I seem to have an absolutely massive speed habit myself... Is this really a good idea?

That's not a problem. At all. The more drugs you do, the more zealous you can be in combating them. Drugs give you the vigour to fight drugs.

And not only that!

Isn't that a bit... stupid?

No.

And my proclivity for smoking doesn't hurt?

No. By supporting the traditional tobacco industry, you keep the narco mills in check. If anything, you should smoke more. Tobacco smoke also wards off narco spirits.

"I'm ready to start saving lives." (Opt in.)

"That's good to hear." The lieutenant acknowledges your strange mumbling. He does not have any narcotics visibly on him as he says it. Good.

You say the words loudly to yourself. That makes them very convincing. The world applauds you -- you are finally on the holy warpath against narcomania!

"That's wonderful to hear." The young woman takes a sip of coffee. Good un-narcotic coffee. Wholesome to look at.

"I'm gonna pussy out at the last moment, like a degenerate." [Discard thought.]

"What?" The lieutenant waves you off. "Never mind."

Your words sound hollow and unconvincing. You're a weakling, a servant to the dark arts of narcomania.

"That's an odd thing to say to yourself, officer." The young woman takes a sip of coffee. It does not seem to have narcotics in it.

Doesn't it hurt that I smoke like beast?

Me drinking -- moribundly -- that isn't gonna be a problem, is it?

No. Alcohol is a powerful anti-narco agent. Seventy-eight percent of people who use alcohol daily feel no need to use it's opposite -- narcohol. If anything, you should drink more. It cleanses.

You're right. I can't think of any objections.

Of course not. You've always been anti-narco militant material. You kept her off a dark course with that interjection! Are you ready to save lives?

My drinking problem... isn't going to be a problem, is it?

Yeah -- and the intimate knowledge of their damaging effects.

Yeah. Sure.

I am pure and steadfast. Totally uncorrupted by Narco.

Yes. You're pure. Unravaged by Narco. Of course it's pretty obvious you've done a lot of drugs in the past -- and will probably do more in the future -- but that doesn't matter.

I seem to have a slight speed habit myself, though. Is this really a good idea?

Okay, but don't I have to stop, like, taking pyrholidon first?

I seem to have a drug habit or two myself. Is this really a good idea?
