“No, he isn’t. It’s complicated, but you’ll have to trust me here.” You’ll have to repeat the energy stuff to convince him, right?
“I don’t want to.” Jesse wants this all to be a lie. “I <span class="mu-s">REALLY</span> don’t want to… But I wanna see him.” Jesse relents. “<span class="mu-i">I wish Bruce and the others were here…</span>” Jesse mutters to himself. “But if you’re lying to me, I don’t want to ever see your face again.”

“I’m unsure where in this Bubble I am. But I’ll find a way to get to Xumenlo.” Jesse lets you know that he’s on board.
“Maybe Esperanza can do us a solid and bring you here.” You throw it out.
“That girl is everything but cooperative.” Jesse has no hope.
