DR. CAUSTIC
[table][tr][td][/td][td]
It's such an innocent way to say that, that Caustic merely desired to go somewhere else. He wanted to go home, to Wattson knocking on his lab door with morning coffee, the waft of chemicals and his pristine lab. He nearly salivates at the thought as he thinks of home again.
Caustic merely glances at the boy when Ivan studies the cages. He doesn’t say anything, tail drooping at the realization that maybe he shouldn’t let Ivan see. The boy was too young to understand how Caustic operated- his experiments had to continue at all cost. In the scientist’s world view, anyone who was not a friend was a future test subject to be disposed of. Science gave him purpose when no one else could.
He studies Ivan’s face when he reveals the machine, trying to figure how confused the boy must be. "Are you familiar with the Many Worlds theory, boy?” Caustic questions, tilting his head. "It’s simple- the theory of the existence of multiple dimensions. It’s true. Octavio and I are... not from here,” Why is he telling all this to a child? Is this giving him some kind of closure?
"It’s a portal device, Ivan. I’m from the year 2733."
