[ It’s a cool line to end things on! Very fitting for that cool, aloof anti-hero thing!
…But he does have another thought, or rather. He has a vision of the potential future. Not as in his prescience, but as in being intuitive enough to see potential future headaches on the horizon (he has no idea).
