[Hawk's on the observation deck, hands tucked into pockets. He's a little restless and shifting from foot to foot, though he's trying not to let that show too much.] Amazing view, isn't it? I've never seen the stars this close. [quietly, mostly to himself] I wonder if the Holyland would be like this.

[attention attention on the CAT, now] Seems like a good spot for a farewell party, if anyone wants to do that. Haven't got anything much right now, but I'm sure we can all grab things we like.

[smiles, coming up behind him on the observation deck] I think that sounds like a wonderful idea.

[desertdaggers]

[turns and grins] Well, we got through to the Mayor! A celebration seems in order. What do you think we should get?

[finalwished]

Hmm...food, for a start. And maybe music? For those of you who are a bit younger, at least.

[desertdaggers]

Well, of course! What kind?

We can get music? How? Performers? [looks puzzled]

[finalwished]

Anything we'd like, I'd suppose.

[smiles in amusement] In a world with technology like this, I'm sure we can find something a bit simpler.

[desertdaggers]

So what kind of food do you like?

… It would've been inconvenient every time he sent a message. So how does that work?

[finalwished]

I like to try new things. Has anything here caught your eye?

[curiously] Are you really interested in the science of it, or would you rather just see it in use?

[desertdaggers]

Hmm… The seafood, perhaps? I'm not very used to that.

More how it's used. I'm not sure if I could entirely follow the science. [awkward smile]

[finalwished]

That sounds perfect.

[smiles back, understanding] Then to put it simply, sounds are...imprinted, onto a disc. A special machine can read these imprints, producing the music. Shall we see if we can find a machine like that?

[desertdaggers]

Shall we go and find some, then?

I'd like that. Before or after food?

[finalwished]

Food first, I think. [glances around] That way? [she's clearly enjoying doing regular human things like this]

[desertdaggers]

Looks good! Let's see what we can find. [holds out an arm, and off we go o/]
