"You can sleep on that," *he said, motioning to an ancient, creaky-looking sofa.* "Or the floor. I don't care either way."
*His room, of course, was the only other one in the flat, a small, equally grandly furnished bedroom that she would not be allowed access to.*

"What's your name, then?" *he asked, dispelling a silence that, for once, was almost not hostile.*

*He wasn't sure what holoserials were, but he wasn't about to let her know that. *
