Because there are so many fewer diversions on this station than on the previous one, Aegis takes to those that are offered with more of an open mind than she might have done before. For instance, she stays after personal combat sometimes, to watch Sue sparring with Howlett. Now and then she takes a turn herself. Today she's just supervising.

Sue's new best friend has a little problem with his jaw now, but as long as they're linking -
Oh, you think so, but you're always gonna think about it, gonna wish you'd let me one last time - kill me now and who'll ever want you? It'll get around, he killed the last guy who so much as touched him, not even desperate guys gone space-gay will look twice at you unless they want to get with your little friend when she grows tits - you'll die alone, little friend when she grows tits'll have her pick and there's no way she'd want a freak like you -

The medics arrive, and they split up to check each of the three bodies in the room, and declare Sue's new best friend to be Sue's dead best friend, and they load Aegis onto a stretcher and carry her away.
"You need the infirmary too," says one of the medics, looking Sue over. "Can you walk?"

He pulls himself to his feet and immediately stumbles, catching himself on the wall.
"Kinda," he says distantly.

"Need another stretcher over here," says the medic, and Sue is loaded onto it and carried down the hall after his - friends.
