...he's sitting in a corner reading a newspaper. Perhaps it's not the most exciting experience the world has ever known, but it's pretty damn lovely for a man who hasn't seen a new bit of print in some years. He's already read the "current events" for whatever world the previous occupant of the booth had been from and now he's on the funnies.

Damn. End of the universe and Dogbert's still a gas.

He's got a leg up on his friend, then. Quinn never even thought of looking for a newspaper. Might explain why he passes the table right by on the first go-round, then turns and comes back to see-

"There you are. I was wondering where you'd got off to."

It does Knox's heart good to see someone reading a newspaper. Yeah, he's from a place where the newspaper still dominates the conversation, but he knows that the competition is only going to get worse (and he doesn't even know about the Internet coming).

"Anything good?"

The mun soundly curses her work which has prevented her from tagging until now.

[Millitimed to after Quinn and Creedy's converstation.]

The man's chuckles attract the attention of another patron who is on his way to the Bar while whistling "Closer to Fine". Naraht pauses for a moment...what a pity the paper's not printed in infrared ink.

"May I ask what is so amusing?" he asks, good-naturedly.
