The new apartment awaits its guests. Brand new folding chairs line the walls of the dining room, and the living room is as clean as possible.

Almost everything is ready. Let the housewarming begin!

Steph is so impressed, all wide-eyed grinning. "Wow! Dude. I mean, I totally always wondered how the stories about you made any sense. How long can it get, if you don't cut it?"

"About ninety feet...it takes a bit over a week to do that, though."

She is used to wide-eyed stares when they hear it.

"When I'm at home, I have to get it cut three times a day, so the Mundy's don't realize who I am."

Steph is seriously so impressed!

"Wow. Seriously, wow, that's totally awesome! Mundys ... like ... normal people? Mundanes?"

"That's right. We don't want them to know about us, and our somewhat magical nature, so there are strict laws in place about interacting with them. A lot more strict for me, since it's so noticeable."

She scans the room, and her eyes land on Alex affectionately for a moment.

"Milliways has been like a dream come true, after centuries of knowing the same people, and not being able to make friends with anyone new."

"Wow," Steph says, sympathetic. "Yeah, I can imagine. Milliways is pretty special."

She grins.

"Like the people you meet there are."

She smiles back.

"Exactly."

Remembering her role as semi-hostess, she gestures toward the kitchen.

"Can I get you something to drink? There's all kinds of food, too."

"Ooh, yes, please." Steph grins, bouncing to her feet again. "Lead on, Macduff!"
