It's been a while since Inari first came to Milliways and since she left, she's been wondering if she was just imagining the place. In fact she's almost convinced herself she was imagining it, no matter how much she wanted to believe otherwise: Thomas is in Chicago, not in a bar at the end of the universe.

So when she opens the door to the small two bedroom apartment that she shares with Bobby and finds herself instead at Milliways, she is more than pleasantly surprised. She grins and head to the bar to order a coke, which she sips while looking around for Thomas, or any of the others she met on her first visit.

Of course, she'd be more than happy to meet someone new as well...

"You can chose when you come here?" Inari starts paying more attention. To be able to come and see Thomas here whenever she wanted to, instead of waiting around for the bar to bring her back, would be brilliant.

Santino nodded. "It's usually the door to a cafe in Rome, for me. Occasionally I have come here by accident."

"oh. Right."

She seems a little disapointed, but she doesn't let it upset her too much. It's not in her nature to get depressed.

"Can't you choose?"

"No. First time I came here I meant to go to the grocery store. This time I was opening thr door to my apartment."

"That must be irritating." Santino said, smiling. "I would hate suprises like that."

"A little bit. I'd rather be surprised and not come very often, than not come at all though."

"Yes, that's a good point."

He smiled. "Some suprises are nice."

She nods in agreement. Coming here the first time and seeing Thomas again was the best surprise she'd had in a long time, even if the conversation didn't go particularly well.

"Well, I'll let you return to your drink. It was a pleasure to been you, Inari Raith."

"Pleasure to meet you too," she says smiling.

Santino gave a bow and a grin, then went on his way.
