Kevin's Watch

From The Real Story chapter 15:

"I'll testify for you. When you go back to Com-Mine, they'll charge you with illegal departure. I'll support you. I'm not much of a cop anymore, but I've still got my id tag. I'll tell them you left on my orders. And I'll tell them there was no supply ship. It was a hoax--that other ship set it up. I'll tell them to arrest Nick Succorso. I can't save your ship but I can save you.

You are close enough to be right, Avatar! You have command of the Gap question once more! CONGRATULATIONS! YAAAAAY!!!

(By the way, I picked up the idea for that question straight out of the Ancillary Documentation sub-forum. )

Ok, what was the name of Marc Vestubale's (sp?) ship? (His original ship, not the Amnion one.)

--A

Viable Dreams?

Too easy. (I do like the ship names for the most part in the books. )

Your turn.

While still a prisoner of Angus in his ship Bright Beauty, Morn tries to kill herself to escape Angus' control. What method does she choose to accomplish this?

Overdose? (From the med bay?)

--A

Yes, she did! Can you tell me what she tried to OD on?

Cat?

--A

Not cat. Hint: what's the substance that a lot of the poor slobs on Billingate are addicted to?

Damn...I can't remember...I wanna say "nerve juice" but that doesn't feel right...

THAT'S IT! Now, where did I put those dancing bananas?? Oh yes, HERE they are!


Thanks for persevering on this one, Av! I had faith in you!

Your question, once again!

(The Gap Quiz is sort of like a ping-pong match these days, isn't it?)

Lazy buggers these other folk huh?

Ok...lemme think...

What makes Angus desperate enough to attack the mine, leading to Starmaster attacking him?

--A

Angus was running out of fuel?

Wasn't fuel...

--A

Then it's probably air, then. I think his scrubbers were going bad and he needed to replace them.

That's it.

Your turn.

--A

This is probably an easy question, but I'll try it, anyway:

When Warden goes to visit Norna, Norna reveals that Holt's thinking is distorted by something.
What does Holt have that distorts his thinking?

His fear of death?

--A

Correct! Holt Fasner has an abnormally intense fear of death, according to his mother (who should know best, after all).

Hmmm...What was the name of the yacht Holt planned on escaping in?
