Figuring Out A Plan

OLLIE That's a terrible idea," I interrupted. "You can't just randomly portal into places where dangerous ancient creatures might be hanging out. What if you open a portal right in the middle of them? What if they grab you and pull you through before you can close it?" "Then Riley would precognate it and warn me before I opened the portal," Lake said, like this was obvious and foolproof logic. "I just told you my precognition isn't working properly right now!" Riley protested. "It's working well enough for immediate danger," Lake argued. "You said so yourself—survival instincts trigger it better than deliberate searching. So if I'm about to do something catastrophically stupid, you should get a vision warning you, and then you can stop me." "That is possibly the worst tactical planning I've ever heard," Riley said flatly. "And I once watched you suggest we escape a facility by having me predict which guards would be in which hallways while you portaled us through an active firefight."
