Teisel nodded, reluctantly. He shouldn't have brought this up; he didn't sound very competent if he'd let himself get captured like that. "I was talking to my roommate, and then someone came in and...I can't really remember anything after that. And when I woke up I was with that doctor."
"You're right." Though the admiral was a lot nicer about telling Teisel to suck it up and act like a man than most people he knew would be.
"Your people sound like a boring crowd. Maybe they'd get along with some of my people." The ones who wasted their entire lives on their home island, wasting their energy on work they hated for the sake of being 'productive' and 'respectable.' And they couldn't imagine why Teisel preferred piracy. It was unstable, sure, but it was better. "Oh yeah? Like what?" If Vux knew anything about space, that'd come in real handy right about now. It'd save his sister a hell of a lot of trouble, for sure.
Well, it sounded like Zex had made some progress, anyway. "Sure." He caught himself. "Uh, unless you want me to come to M66 instead...?" He was supposed to be the hired muscle here; it seemed silly to make the admiral leave his own room alone to come and find him.
