While you appreciate the thought, you tell Tamako that you wouldn't mind just having a relaxing day. Honestly, it feels like you've been run non-stop since you've gotten here. A break might be nice!
The Changeling blows a raspberry and pouts, "I'm never gonna get a mommy..."
"What are you guys arguing about? I can hear you from the Commissary entrance." a voice says. Your three co-workers stop talking and part, revealing a much smaller, green woman approaching.
"Zul!" Hilde, suddenly more nervous than you think she should be, "Uh... Err... So I have to buy something. A uh, part that I need that I can only get at the Market so I was thinking maybe we could go today?"
"Do you have anyone that will go with you?" Zul asks pointedly.
Unable to keep some annoyance out of her voice the robot responds, "Yeah, the human said he'd-"
"I'll be watching her." Kamiko cuts in. "It'll be Martin and Tamako's first time so they'll probably need a guide as well."
When the LGM looks to you, you comment that you need a charger for your phone, or at least some sort of converter so you can plug in a regular one.
"And I reeeally wanna see the Market! It sounds fun!" Tamako says, using her new wide-eyed puppy dog technique.
"And you, Emogen?" Zul says, turning to your porcine co-worker.
"Huh? Yeah I want to come. It's been a while since I've gone." Emogen says with a shrug. "I didn't have much planned for today anyway."
For some reason, Zul gives you a discerning, almost accusatory look. She then turns to Hilde and says, "Luckily for you I have business at the Market as well."
"Nice!" Hilde whoops, then grabs Kamiko's arm and starts pulling excitedly saying, "C'mon Big Girl, let's go get my money!"
"Yeah, yeah... I'll need to go get my pistol anyway. Just let me grab some food." Kamiko says, walking towards the vending machines, the robot still clinging to her. Emogen follows, likely also grabbing breakfast.
Zul however, sidles next to you on a chair with a cup of coffee and says, "Hey. I just went by Security. They wanted me to identify someone they just arrested. They said you'd been by. How are you holding up? They said you seemed distressed by the encounter."
You heart sinks a little. You had managed to distract yourself from Anne's and her current condition. With a bit of guilt you explain what you got out of Ian, and what you saw of the former tour guide. You ask if she'll be okay.
"Anne is fine. Well, as fine as a zombie can be. She's taking it surprisingly well. Until we know how much she craves human flesh she'll be under observation." Zul says, taking a sip of her coffee. "We aren't sure what we'll do after that."
The mention of human flesh reminds you of Camelia's request for a large amount of meat for her body and you ask Zul about it.
"We can get Emogen to order it, yes. She didn't ask for human flesh specifically right? You can get that at the Market, but I can't say the SHR is too approving of that."
What do you do?
