Joe had hurried to get aboard only to have his back throw him out of things for nearly a day. On the positive side he had gotten to get on Dr. Hunter’s nerves. He had finally gotten everything set up in the Fantail lounge. The bar top looked like some sort of translucent purple quartz. There were round tables scattered all about with easy to sit in adjustable chairs. Joe had made sure to have the light turned down by the fantail windows to make it easier on his customers to get a good view of the galaxy moving past them.

Joe swabbing away at the bar surface idly. There was a soft low music playing. He looked around and nodded his head. Proud of what he had done here. It was ready to go. He did however have to wonder what had happened to Miri. He would have thought she would have shown up by now.
