No slime today! Ray's been busy with other things, most of which have to do with his nephews. You can't neglect an apprenticeship just because you've been off tootling around South Dakota looking for invisible bureaucrat jailbirds

No work at the bar today, just a sprite lady getting a quick nightcap for the evening.

"Hey Ray, what's processing?"

[gone_byebye]

"Oh- hi, Dot. Just got back from working with my nephews. How're you?"

"I'm doing well, the digitation of the flora went without a single bug, and.. I got a little creative. We tried the scanner on a few chocolate bars." They still haven't been able to get Enzo to give up that bag.

Ray winces. "That's right, I missed the party. I'm sorry, Dot. I was sort of stuck in meatspace. How'd it go,a nyway? The chocolate scanning, I mean?"

Raptor Red remembers quite a bit about Milliways, ranging from how to get food to what the layout of the outside area is like. But what she remembers best are the humans, and one human in particular.

And nowshe's spotted that particular stupid-brave human/walking source of handouts. This calls for a greeting.

Hopefully, Ray won't mind the sight of a raptor lunging out from between the tables, jaws spread wide as she calls "KHOH!"

There's only one voice in the multiverse that sounds like that; Ray whips around, beaming. "Red!" he calls out. "Hi there!"

He hasn't really got enough for a raptor her size, but he's never given up carrying jerky with him when he comes to Milliways, so he's gonna whip that little bit of an offering out as one more way of saying hi.

[redsnout]

Red accepts the offering, taking care to not take off part of Ray's hand with it. She has a firm grip on the idea of not biting the hand that feeds...well, her chicks more than herself.

After gulping down the jerky, Red nods her head towards the door with a snort. It showed up again and brought her here. Why? She has no idea.

"I have to be honest, Red. I have no idea either," says Ray in answer. "Were you migrating, or doing anything else different from usual?"
