"Okay, what is this nerdy crap?"

The piece of paper in Tamsin's hands was definitely some kind of nerdy crap, she was sure of it. Still, it was their best shot at at least getting the island back to somewhere that had actually decent bars ( Read more... )

"Ah," Jenkins said, giving the purple gentleman a polite nod. "Pardon us. Didn't mean to interrupt." He started to close the door again, then paused and pulled a candy bar from his jacket. "Snickers?"

If the genuinely amiable smile on the man's face suddenly went a bit... pasted on yay as he sort of only mostly succeeded in not looking up, access to his thought processes might have offered some enlightenment on that score.

Theet...spoke to me. No, not theet, that's the hairy ones with the bright red rumps. It? She! That's what these ones call their younglings, right? Or was it gik? Gik spoke to me. In a sauna! I mean, I don't mind, but what are the odds that the next time it happens, gik won't be so lucky as to do it to a Hrowfigin? It's punishable by death and/or three consecutive beheadings by almost every non-pacifist race on this timestrand. What are they teaching their larvae these days? I've got to warn gi...girk?

But of course he couldn't warn girk, because warning girk would be... speaking to girk. In a sauna. If gik's progenitors found out he'd done that... well, he only had the one head.

So he did the only thing he could do: continued to smile amiably. Really REALLY amiably. So amiably. At no one in particular. As you

"Ah." Jenkins had no particular access to any other creature's thought processes at the moment - or most moments for that matter - but he did have quite a lot of experience with strained amiable smiles and broken taboos. He dipped his chin and saluted in the general direction of the floor with the Snickers bar. "Too right. It would only end up melted." He tucked it back into his jacket pocket. "Enjoy the rest of your steam."

It really was too bad about the contradictory social customs going on here. Jenkins hated being beheaded.
