"Yes" Rachel agreed simply "And far closer here than elsewhere" she was, in truth, a star addict.

A mischievous one if ever there WAS one. The son of Anansi walked over from another table.

"Hey, I do that! I'm not a virus, but I can make people get lost like you wouldn't believe."
Oh dear. The god-son and the chaotic virus just found something in common to brag about.
