"I'd hesitate to call it a maturity thing, but..."

Keth rolls his eyes. "Right, that must be it."

Pattern laughs. "I'll send Merryweather up, too." She kisses her own Ripper and pops away to find him first.

"Hey," she informs him, "the other three of you are all in one place, I'm gonna get Glass to peer at you and make pronouncements, you may wish to join them."

"Is that so," says Merryweather. He pauses in climbing the stairs.

"Yup. You're actually en route already, they're all over there, see, making each other drop beverages." She points.

"Well, they're four for four - which one should I go look at?"

Permalink

"Mine," says Keth, "definitely mine, I will introduce you."

Keth laughs. "All right, now, then."
