There's a nurse with a black eye at the bar, looking around occasionally for members of security.

And he's bloody annoyed.

"And I, my dear Amanda, do not want to tell you. Because you will worry, and probably seek this person out and have a go at them."

The battle of the stubborn ones commences.

Yes. Suppose this isn't going to go anywhere good.

"I wont worry but it will keep me up if I don't know who it was. And I wont go have it out with anyone. Being Bound is bad enough." what she leaves off is that being confined to the cells would be unbearable, because he already knows.

"Why will it keep you up? I'm in no danger Amanda. It was a one off."

He sips his tea. "I am not a popular man around here Amanda. But you know as well as I do that I don't plan to stay here long term. There is no sense in you falling out with someone on my part."

She shakes her head, "I'll lose sleep over it because I will be trying to rack my brain over who it was and start suspecting people. My curious nature and all."

Abs sighs.

"Okay, you tell me who you suspect and I'll answer yes or no. If you can't guess you can't brood. Deal?"

Sneaky. However there are only so many people that she knows know Abs and Guppy, "Aeryn?" which is her first guess. Having no idea about her shrunken perdicament.

"Nope. She was shrunk."

"Shrunk?" Amanda shakes her head figuring that she probably doesn't want to know more, "Hmm, Lee?" because she knows that Sooty and Hank wouldn't hit Abs.

"Who's Lee? No."

"Guess he only knows Guppy." hey she doesn't know exactly who they both know, "Ramon?" she doesn't know if he is out of the cells yet.

"Nope. Don't know him either."

[OOC: kick LJ for eating post]

"Hmm." the list is getting smaller. Abs knows fewer people then Guppy, "Was it Gorlim?" she asks almost hopefully, because at this point the deal is looking really stinky. Her curiosity is on;y growing.

"Yes."

Amanda sits back in her chair and gives a sigh of relief. Because this really would have bothered her. Though good job Abs. She is so relieved that she finally knows that she has forgotten to be angry.

"Well done. Biscuit?"

"Sure." she says with a laugh, "Hank has ordered me to eat and drink so why not a bisciut?"

"Ah, well if it's doctor's orders..."

He asks the bar for two ice creams and passes one to her. Dime bar crunch flavour with a flake and choccie sprinkles. And a strawberry.

Amanda takes it with a smile, "Thank you." she does love her strawberry's

Abs grins.

"A bar with all the food in the universe, and still half the residents are malnourished."

"Yes well there really isn't much she can do about catatonic states is there. That's what friends are for, right?" she grins.

"Right. And I can see that someone is in need of a bit of TLC. So..."

He gets up and goes over to the karaoke machine.

"I think it's time for a bit of a distraction."

He flicks through the choices and grins.

Oh no, Karaoke. Amanda is blissgully unaware of anything that has happened with reguards to the Karaoke machine which may explain the grin that has just crossed her face.

He's quite tuneful really. He grins, flicks back his hair and presses a button.

"What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends.
Oh I get high with a little help from my friends
Oh I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends..."

Amanda is smiling in pure delight as her brain starts flipping through it's archives to figure out what song to sing in response.
