If NutJob can secure a pretty girlfriend, with beautiful long brown hair, then MaxChaos thinks it can\u2019t be that difficult. He\u2019s been to InfiniDash a few times, to help with delivering provisions to ships, but he doesn\u2019t yet fully understand the difference between a shipbroker and a shipping company.<\/p>\n Stepping inside the door at the main reception he sees Conning working the desk alone. Normally Mrs Moore works the desk. This looks like a perfect chance. MaxChaos is trying to play it cool. A clumsy sort of cool. A chaotic cool. The sort of thing that led to his nickname.<\/p>\n He steps up to the desk.<\/p>\n \u201cWhere\u2019s your mum, I thought she\u2019d be here?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s got a week off.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cA weak cough? Will she be here tomorrow?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNo, not a weak cough, a week off, she\u2019s spending a week on Mannin.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s manning? She\u2019s looking for a man?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMax, stop winding me up. You know what I mean, you\u2019ve been to Mannin haven\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n He places his right forearm and elbow on the counter and leans forward. Then he deliberately flutters his eyelids.<\/p>\n Conning has seen this sort of thing before. The singing duo gets a lot of unwanted attention from the boys in their informal fan club. Conning has learnt to nip this sort of thing in the bud.<\/p>\n \u201cDon\u2019t invade my personal space \u2026 you smell \u2026 of fish! You smell of fish. Don\u2019t try to get flirty with me!\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s what I wanted to talk about.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cFish?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMannin! There\u2019s a silver mine on Mannin isn\u2019t there? And Zinc? What else is there, metal wise?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOh, I don\u2019t think we\u2019ve been asked that before? You want to import metals? We just supply ships with what the crew needs, we don\u2019t always know what their cargos are!\u201d<\/p>\n Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page186 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Previous – Book1 Page186 \u2013 Next Meanwhile, MaxChaos has been looking for an excuse to speak to Conning, the pretty girl with the long brown hair who works part time at InfiniDash, the shipbroker.
