She laughed out loud at that. "Oh my god, do you really think I'm that stupid? The best choice to take him down? Give me a break!"
-
"You are." He sighed. "Fortunately, everything broken was invented by this period in time and is accessible. What do I need to do to prove to you that I'm telling the truth?"
-
"I don't know how you could." She shrugged.

He reached into his pocket. "You're lucky I have these. Most of this is considered off-limits for anyone who isn't rich." He pulled out a small device and tossed it on the ground. It sat there for a moment, then cast a hologram up onto the ceiling.

Nina watched, and raised an eyebrow, eyes widening slightly in curiosity.
-
"What do you want from it? It'll do pretty much anything," he said, smiling.
-
"I...don't know. What even is it?"
-
"It's Dox." He stood and walked over, then sat beside the cube. "Dox, look up popular celebrities from the early twenty-first century. No earlier than after the first decade." A gallery of pictures, a lot of which she probably recognized people from, appeared on the ceiling. They all had birth and death dates, as well as a small paragraph about each person. It wasn't his preferred use of the device, but it worked for now.

"...Okay...I admit that's cool, but I just...I mean..how am I supposed to believe you? This is all a little much, don't you think?"

The time traveler shrugged. "It's not for me. I actually... I stole the parts and invented this, and helped with the invention of the glasses on the table. And if you promise to not claim I'm a stalker and throw me out, I'll show you how we chose you from all the others."
-
She thought about it for a few minutes, then sighed, nodding. "Fine, alright. Show me."
-
"Come sit with me. Dox, show option 413." A picture of the girl appeared on the ceiling, as well as a some physical statistics for her.
-
She sat down, and glanced at the screen. "Oookay. "
-
"Begin slideshow." A collection of pictures from her past started to flicker across the ceiling. Optis watched them. "Each one of these is from a time where you demonstrated the characteristics we were looking for: loyalty, cunning, creativity, integrity, talent in various fields... You have it in you, you know."
-
She stared, in slight awe. She should probably have been creeped out, but she was beginning to believe his strange story.
"Alright, fine. I guess I'll believe this all. But I mean, I don't know the first thing about..well, any of this, really."
