Aegis is puttering around in an anonymous patch of vacuum. Jane is eating up the news that has passed in their absence and feeding Aegis a steady stream of it by brainphone so she can catch up, while she waits for Sue to get back from teaching the other Jokers to freecast. (Or "teaching them to freecast", whatever.)

She still hasn't gotten any welcome-back kisses. Hugs, yes, but not kisses. Probably this is going to require a conversation.

Speaking of torching, you ever find out who Little Doctored us?

[pythbox]

Yeah. I check up on them once in a while to see if they've cooked up anything similarly stupid - I should hand that off to Jane...

And off they go into the practicalities.

Sue has gotten very good at the practicalities.

Mmm. Practicalities. Delicious Bellish practicalities.
