[ Cisco thinks this whole scavenger hunt plan is a little foolish, and is working on some tech that will help with this monster problem a hell of a lot more efficiently, and with a lot less needless animal cruelty. Unfortunately, for him to be able to disable a large number of these critters at the same time, he has to know something about them.
So he'd come out, with a butterfly net, intent on capturing a few of the moths so he could bring them back to his workshop, carefully, observe them, see what worked and what didn't. He had heard from some folks that they exerted an influence over emotions. He just wasn't expecting it to be quite so powerful.
He's glad, therefore, when the stranger intervenes, catching the two moths while Cisco is doubled over, laughing so hard there are tears at the corners of his eyes. Nothing is funny, really. If anything he should be feeling frustrated and embarrassed. He'd been lunging after those fuckers for ages, always missing by just a little. But instead he can't catch his breath from laughing. ]
