But Nimona also thinks I'm just a kid. Adlet didn't. We were going to raid the police station together. We were going to smoke out and kidnap the mayor.
[ they were going to have so much fun together ): ]
[ ngggggggg... how to say this without explicitly admitting he's a ghost and getting exorcised on the spot? ]
After we destroy the moon and are able to go back to where we belong, I'll go back to being what I was before. I'm... stuck. I guess you can call it being cursed.

I'll be bound to where I am. I can't go anywhere... I can't do anything... Life will go on, without me.

[little delinquent. this kid will never grow up to join the workforce.
...anyway he goes a little stern that that.]

Nimona?? respects HIM????? why would she do that that's such a bad idea ]
