"Aaaaagh!"

I glance down to see several members of staff fleeing the building. Didn't want to get their hopes up by warning them, though I did notify someone from the Central Commission of Internal Affairs that I intended to operate in the area. They appeared to still be pretty grateful for all the construction work I did last time so I don't think this will be a problem.
So...Paul still has no sense of scale, does he?

CCIA Employee: "Hey, that guy who built those bridges and roads came by and said he was going to be hanging around for a bit, working on some stuff."

Agency Head: "...did he say what he'd be working on?"

CCIA Employee: "Not really."

Agency Head: "Huh, maybe he's going to do some more stuff in the remote villages like last time."

CCIA Employee: <Picks up ringing phone> "Sir...someone just called in saying that a massive wave of orange light swept over the hospital containing the Agent Orange victims. They appear to all be healed."

Agency Head: "...huh."
 
when they aren't making boxing glove constructs to punch people with

That's a giant boxing gl- okay that actually hurt. Shield construct's gone, armour construct's cracking… I generate some construct missiles and launch them at the Greenies. Micro-transitions and a flare of green… Oh, come on! Okay, boring old railguns it is then. Maybe.. filaments aren't always the correct ow! Okay, he's taking the piss with these boxing gloves now. Just because this whole thing relies on me not fighting back effectively doesn't prove gahh!
Don't mock the Glove.
 
As a matter of fact, as a foreigner English-speaker, I'd like to say that it's highly irritating when an expression literally means the opposite of what it's supposed to mean.

... But then I'm a pretty much easily irritated guy, like cringing each time I see "decimate" when more than 10% of the total is removed.

Say la vee.
 
Imagine how much self discipline it must take to let go of that kind of power, especially considering that the ring is powered by avarice of all things.

Also, I find the idea of her taking off the ring while still unsupported in mid air to be very amusing for some reason.
...I think Paul suppressed avarice there, and the difference between the two thinking modes shocked Jade.

*sigh*
I wish I was more avaricious and could act on it more.
