Nah, Local Nobles who picked up gunrunning and drug trafficking. They were also in charge of a vast majority of legal Chemical trades, thanks to you.
["Emma out."] Is all she replies, and you finish off the plate of curried beans on rice. The Automaton takes the plate, and Cephie gives you a nod as you make to leave.
"Don't be a stranger! I had fun last night." She calls after you, as you take unsteady steps out on to the landing pads. First things first -- finding and petting Mitch. Playing with the beast is out of the question. He enjoys physical activities more than anything, and you've the feeling that might rip open your chest --
Speaking of which...
[10][12] You wince as some of your inner flesh and organs work themselves back together, having to come to a lean on a hovercraft as the pain nearly forces you into unconsciousness. You take a deep breath, feeling your insides settle themselves more comfortably against real flesh instead of carbon mesh. The wound across your chest, across your muscles, is still there, but you feel more steady.
Mitch's room, you come to learn, has not been moved. You also find out that she's assigned Thornton servants to bring him food and clean up after him. You head to the room in question, finding Mitch laying on a mattress, chewing on a nutrient cube. Two strong-looking young men lounge nearby. They dip their heads politely, before returning to enjoy what looks like a makeshift game of cards. Mitch finishes eating before he bounds over to you. He's up to your thigh now, with feet two sizes too big for his body. His eyes, you note, have turned a pale shade of blue. His fur, as well, is changing colors -- a rusty red merging with the natural colors of the wall. The pattern swirls around him.
He's also starting to drool everywhere -- and after a playful nip of your hand that draws blood, he contents himself with being pet.
You end up petting him for a while, looking out the great window that faces a cliff. It's not the best view, of course, but there's sunlight for him to lounge in. He chews on a few bones that lay scattered around, crunching down hard on them with his teeth, devouring marrow and fragment alike.
