Quote:He'd probably not notice immediately that he might be considered a problem, but yeah... Depends on where he arrives to begin with; non-Lensfolk are almost certainly to be the same as people everywhere, except maybe a tad happier, a tad more honest and law-abiding than he's probably familiar with. He wouldn't necessarily view this as a bad thing. He probably would have problems with the Lensmen, and perceive their attitude as possibly unsupported arrogance. (How's that shoe feel on the other foot, now, Dougie-boy? ) Doug's as big a believer in absolute good as Madigan (), but would more or less instinctively distrust any individuals who claim -- either explicitly or implicitly -- to represent or embody it. And he knows that, historically, people with power and absolute certainty about their opinions have had little patience or love for people who raise uncomfortable questions about them. Once he realized this, Doug would certainly do his best to disappear before someone did it for him.
"So you're not Gods, you just play them in real life... Right..."
I'm guessing that doug would politely excuse himself, find a gate song (_any_ gate song), and get the hell out of there before they decided he was a problem that had to be dealt with.

Light and Dark are never absolutes (saith the physicist)
