Sahaal comes down from the residential corridors just after six. He's headed for the bar to grab some dinner, but then he sees the Life Support buffet.

Filling a plate with fish and chips, he sits down on one of the chairs nearest to the fire.

"Hey, how goes?" Guppy gives him a wave.

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

He pauses, a forkful of battered cod halfway to his mouth.

"It's going alright, thank you. You?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Good thanks. Sounds like there was some weird business here the other day though."

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"Weird business?"

Around here, that phrase covers a multitude of sins.

"My daughter got stung by a bug and experienced a mild change in personality." Guppy says. "It's worn off now, thank goodness."

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"Oh." He pauses. "Is your daughter alright?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"She is now, she was a little upset." Guppy says.

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"Was anyone else affected here?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yes, at least one person I know of." Guppy says. "You've not seen anything unusual?"

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"No. I spent most of my time down in the garage these days. Not much news gets down there, so I often hear about these sort of things after the fact."

[guppy_sandhu]

"What keeps you down there?" Guppy asks.

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

Sahaal spears a couple of chips with his fork.

"It's where I keep my dropship, and most of my personal armoury. Mostly, I'm down there because I need to do the maintenance on my wargear. Part of it is that I don't have much else to do."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Are you Bound here?" Guppy asks.

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

He shakes his head. "No, I'm not. I could go back to my universe. But there's nothing for me there. So I live here now."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'm sorry to hear that." Guppy says. "Are you finding things okay here?"

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"Things are much better here. The food, the music, the company - all rather a step up from what I'm used to."

[guppy_sandhu]

"You seem to have settled and found your feet." Guppy says. "Do you play an instrument?"

[exiled_heir_of_the_eighth]

"Yes," Sahaal replies, "Sinric taught me how to play a four note flute a few months back. I've tried to keep practicing with it."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy is around if anyone needs him, putting salt and vinegar on his chips.
