Still playing generic builder cartoon character?

Tell you the truth, I haven't watched a lot of cartoons.
[Beat. Beat.]
I'm talking into the void, aren't I?

[This time, his message is short, and he looks irritated.]
Come on, Hiro. What, let that name get to you? I've been looking up things. I bet you'd care. What happened to Naggy the Curious Dog? [A beat.] Guess I shouldn't have expected much from a kid like you.

Watch out for weird dreams.
[He's still irritated in his tone, but more controlled, like it's not an outside source mustering it up.
He leaves it at that.]

Did you know that you're well on your way to becoming a cautionary tale? I might start telling stories about you. Stories about the boy who cried cross bow, lost on a battlefield without anything but wide eyes and a bunch of blood gushing from someone's neck. Oh, but that wasn't you, was it? Who got you into the business, Hiro?
[He makes a brief laughing sound, but it sounds thick and bitter.]
Who got you into the business? Who decided to make you into a child soldier?

Because the truth is, they've gotta hone their recruiting processes.
See, you don't know what it's really like. You think you have it all worked out for you, but you don't. You're just a scared kid believing that you can make something of yourself.
Find out all the damn answers! [he's practically shouting this last one.]
End of the day, you're just another one ripe for the picking.
But hey, it's not my problem, right? I'm more concerned with other things.
Ever wonder if the dictation program screws up? Is it a program? Hard to say. I haven't tested it.
[That's it.]
[That's it.]
[What does he say?]
Just nearly did something. I couldn't control myself.
Guess I've been doing a lot of that. Following whims.
That what you're up to, Hiro?

Fixed it.
[He's not saying anything else. After no replies from Hiro for this long, he just assumes he won't get one.]

Got a job better suited to my talents. None of this training and camaraderie. Mostly.
I'll be in and out.
[Of spire three. That's his meaning.]
