Perhaps if you were to find a smiling god, hear Strex's voice as I do then maybe you will no longer need to worry about such hardships. I barely remember my time before Strex, but I know there was a time and I resisted the approach of the blinding light. Eventually I to welcomed Strex and a smile came to my face and my worries were dashed to the shadows.

I suppose I should thank you for informing Lauren of my actions, but I do not spread the word of Strex for Laurens benefit. It is a desire to bring productive smiles to all faces, because when one is smiling they are happy.

Thank you. It will surely, if anything, shut her up.
