That hulking, silent suit of what-might-be-armour (the one with those strange
tubes all over it) that nobody has noticed for an awfully long time suddenly
moves, taking by surprise the small furry mammal that had crawled onto the
left arm and attempted to build a nest there.

Explosions appear in every direction, perhaps caused by the tubes on the
stranger's armour.... and maybe the high-pitched beeping 0.00235 seconds ago
had something to do with it, too....

Gavin suddenly realizes what he has done, and those with sharper hearing
might discern a slightly sheepish tone to the muffled words that he speaks:

	"Damn! Let off again! Sorry about that, everyone, my chrono-alarm
	always scares the hell out of me when I've been studying! Gotta go
	now, remember: if you shoot first, nobody can prove the other guy
	_wasn't_ out to get you!"

After this strange and unsettling soliloquy (or perhaps it was the word
"studying" that caused all in the room to feel a little bit uncomfortable...)
Gavin turns around and, accompanied by strange little whirring noises with
every movement, exits the crowded pub.

Highflyer notes a strange motto on the back of Gavin's "armour", obscured to
most other people by the tubes that point seemingly everywhere...

	"Afraid of no man..... and damn few women!"
