"Such a nice young man," Nadina murmurs about Benin, nodding at him. "So neatly turned-out, and he understands the proprieties. We'll have to see what we can do for him. Don't you agree?"
"Not me," says Linyabel. "Surely."
"You've acquitted yourself so well, though. Perhaps things could be different now."
"Not, I think, enough to suit me, even if enough to suit the haut. But by all means, get ghem-Colonel Benin a present."
And with that, they are on the Cetagandan security shuttle, accompanied by Benin himself.
