Editing Genius The Transgression/Chapter One: The Cosmos (section)

===Collaboration:===

Wyrms have a bad reputation, but it's important for other geniuses in the collaborative to realize that Neids aren't any crazier than anyone else hanging around the water cooler at the laboratory. A Neid suspects the worst from everyone, and while this can be dangerous if she can't drop her guard at home, it's invaluable when vetting an external agency. Is the crazy cat lady down the road a threat? A potential ally? A Lemurian spy? An Illuminated cannibal? Or just a crazy cat lady? The Neid can find out; they're paranoid, but their paranoia gets directed more often at real than imagined threats. Neids are also fiercely loyal to those they can trust. That, coupled with their suspicion of outsiders, can cement a group together like nothing else, especially one in hostile territory or with few other friends or contacts.
