Cecil was trying not to think about his own problem; he was really good at ignoring things when he had to, though, so he just told himself it probably wasn't a municipally approved topic, and pushed it from his mind.
Which left him at work, in a reasonably warm place, with a large pink bird sunning himself in a patch from the windows.
The ever-present Now Hiring sign was up in the window, along with one that read:
Newbie special!
All new residents and students, 10% off -
come in and find something from your
home era / region!
Because everybody got a little homesick sometimes, right?
