[Of course he's not kidding, but poor Godzilla—Gigan's helpless not to laugh some at the situation. It's serious, but hard to take seriously, at least for Gigan; this is confirmation of something he's used to taking for granted. He hadn't been sure about the situation with LILITH, and apparently nobody else had either . . . but this is the way these things go as far as he's ever been aware. Anyone who modifies you for their use puts in a failsafe. You'd have to be stupid not to. Could LILITH press a button on their end and force Gigan to drop dead right here and now if they wanted to? Maybe. If they could, they wouldn't be the first or even the second group of people to have that kind of power over him, and he's been used to it for a very, very long time.
He shakes his head and leans his chin on his hand, propped on the table.]
They're not playing around, huh? I take it they've never flexed that on anyone here before. But it figures that'd be part of their setup. Is it permanent?
