While Seth continues to the ship, Bob heads back to the admin office. Chief Marshall Quinton is not there, but one of her deputies is. When you ask about Frankie Battista, she very nearly shuts down. "Look. All I can tell you is that he must know someone big. We've only managed to slap him with a fine or two, and I think those only stuck because he has to keep up appearances. If you saw guys with him, they're probably bouncers at the Starfire, but they rotate in and out nearly with every freighter. I wouldn't go looking for trouble there. You'll find it. That's all I can tell you. And hopefully no one heard me say that."
As Bob leaves the office he's met by Seth with carrying Theodore's crate. The cat was a tortoise shell domestic mix - at least partially maine coon - with an orange and blue eye. "Ah, Bob, meet Theodore. Theodore, meet Bob."
When the cat meowed, it looked directly into Bob's eyes. And as uncanny as it was, it sounded like the cat had attempted to say. "Hi!" Considering Seth's economy with words, extremely limited social skills, and generally obsessive and hyperfocused personality; it wouldn't be a stretch to consider his only hobby was teaching Theodore the cat.
"Ah it is well. Theodore likes you."
Where is the cat to accompany you to next? Back down to the shafts, or up to the Starfire?
