You are pretty sure you've cleaned engine parts with stuff that has less alcohol in it. However the taste is quite pleasant if you forget the almost pure alcohol. There is a sugary taste to it. The man who imports it calls it the Crystal Fairy. I don't know, there's some history behind that name. The girl says as she observes Cnosos' reaction to the drink.An hour later the others are well on the tipsy side and Gaetanna finds herself shopping. After some effort she has found almost everything she was looking for. Now dressed in style fit for the highups of Jap colonies she is looking for some new tools for Cnosos, but can't find anything better than Greed would already have.There seems to be few other spacers around in the bar but nothing really points out for Solly until some time later in walks two aliens that you don't recognise. Interesting in itself as during the short time in medschool you did go over the basics of most Republic lifeforms. These two are tall and gangly with gleaming purplish skin and faces that look like squids from earth history. They seem to notice your stare and you get a strange sense of annoyonce.At the same time a heated argument breaks out between two spacers nearby and the annoyance turns to puzzlement in Solly's head, and he is certain that those are not his own feelings. And as soon the feeling is gone.[sblock=OOC]Well the closest thing to refer with these guys would be basic Mind Flayers. They look pretty much the same. Just slap some scifi-ish robes on them instead of the usual fantasy robes <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />.Gaetanna manages to buy everything except for the luxury tools.[/sblock]</blockquote>
