A) We've already Drifted with a Hivemind--one that was antagonistic to us--and came out on top.
B) I really have to respect this change in our relationship, Hermann. No, that wasn't sarcasm. I admire that your worst-case scenario was "Newt, you're going to get your head stuck and damage everything trying to get unstuck," like I'm the kid who put his head between the banisters and then couldn't figure out how to turn his head to keep his chin from catching on the way out. I like that it was me causing irreparable damage to the relationships involved and not "Newt, you'll fry your brain and bleed it out your nose."
