Again, apologies for the tardy reply.

Yes, Av, correct. Full voluntary access to everything in in his datacore and no restrictions on who he may harm or kill if they interfere with him.

Damn.

Ok, might have had this one before...what made access to the laboratory station where they were headed to try and produce the anti-mutagen so difficult?

...And I think there's some black hole near the center of the system that affects all these asteroids so that they move in dangerous and unpredictable ways. :confused:

Thank you!

Okay, when Morn, Davies, and Angus were publicly discussing a fallen shipmate from Trumpet while on the bridge of Punisher, their comments inspired Captain Ubikwe to say, "You people are all as charming as snakes." Who were they discussing?

Ok...Hmmm...

Why was Nick so sure that the Amnion would be willing to trade with him again when they headed to Enablement?

...Because he was sure the Amnion wanted to test his blood to figure out why he hadn't mutated into an Amnion?

That sounds right.

Thank you, Sorus. It's always possible that I've missed something, though, as it's been two years since last reading the Gap. I think the answer's somewhere along those lines; close, but maybe not quite right. :? If the answer's not good enough, I sure don't mind guessing some more...that's the fun part! :D 8)

They were definitely curious - and suspicious about why he hadn't mutated. The blood sample was offered as payment for the services he was after, but he knew they'd want to get their appendages on it.

Something to do with how he was able to pilot the escape pod and evade being picked up by Tranquil Hegemony.

Good guess, Sorus, but that's not it!
