" The Felinzi disappeared through a pair of swinging doors to their right, and everyone seemed to be following, so Garth did as well." The Felinzi disappeared through a pair of swinging doors to their right, and everyone seemed to be following, so Garth did as well. Inside, Skii disappeared behind a large metal table and rummaged about inside some cabinets, returning with a round sandwich in his hand. "Corned beef. Anyone want something?" Nickolai shook his head. Furry, though, asked for a ham sandwich, which Skii promptly tossed her. "How about you two?" Garth admitted to himself that he was hungry despite breakfast but he didn't know if it was polite to accept or refuse an offer of food on Pendor. Furry was already halfway through hers. "What have you got?" "Name it," Skii asked. "Pastrami with sauerkraut." "Not only do we have that," Skii laughed, disappearing into the cabinet again, "But it's one of Ken's favorites." He tossed the requested sandwich, wrapped in waxed paper, to Garth, who caught it easily. "Nice catch." "Thanks," Garth said, smiling up at Skii despite himself. Although he knew already that much of Skii's talents were the results of nanotech microsurgery, there was an openness to him that Garth found refreshing. |
