i am afraid it is not as simple as all that, legion informed them.

you have requested a name, legion addressed the malefactor, and by imperial statute, i am required to issue you one. you will then be required to report to imperial headquarters to register the name and fill out a few forms.

what a bother, the malefactor sighed. what have i let myself in for, by not minding my own business.

i am somewhat surprised, the visionary engaged in the unraveling of reality interposed, that given your apparent propensity for butting in on other people[s affairs, you have not found yourself in this situation before,

indeed, officer legion agreed. but let us proceed. would you like to give yourself a name, or would you like me to provide you with one.

i already asked you to give me one.

forgive me, i have had a long day. here are fourteen names for you to choose from, are you ready?

as i ever will be.

the mames are:

6532 -965 - 4320

red rose greenblossom

joe bpb smith 7854

walter johnson 67432

woodrow wilson 865

fotheringgay hogwillow

mister rochester 5732

koyte fokuy

hey! the visionary who lost and ten found his dog cried - that is my name if you please!

i am sorry, legion hastily apologized. here, let me give you another one.

not so fast, my good functionary, the visionary expostulated. something is seriously amiss here, and i mean to get to the bottom of it.

suddenly the dog, eddie, ran off again, this time in the opposite direction from which he had previously appeared.

the visionry followed afterhim in a stumbling gait.

the obnoxious malefactor looked at officer legion and shrugged helplessly.

the overburdened officer legion nodded.

had enough?

yes, for today. i will hepefully wake up tomorrow and start over.

that sounds like a good plan., the malefactor agreed. i will buy you a dribk, if you lke.

no thank you, i want to get home to my lonely room and watch my favorite show.
