Among the files is a list of employees, with information such as their race and age displayed. Among the Kanguusti working at the Aligison factory, the closest fit to the victim is a "Nomingio Coldstream." Looking further in, his last assignment had been to inspect the generator after unexplained scratches had shown up. The security cameras had been left off the previous day. The perfect opportunity for a trap.
The serpentine mammal is startled by what looks like an aquatic drone. On closer inspection, however, it looks natural, in a way, with camera eyes too small to be practical for a camera feed. What appears to be a back "fin" turns out to be a solar panel, a very odd manufacturing choice. It could have been part of an ecosystem of self-replicating robots left alone for a long time, evolving freely, before it was added to the aquarium.

Revver shuts off the holo-computer and sighs.
The Uetiko are gonna pay. But first he needs to upgrade his gear.
...And maybe grab a bite to eat. Revver looks up nearby restaurants on his helmet.
Note: Robot life is great

New Vrontu hosts a variety of restaurants and other eateries. There are many "bar and grills" (the likes of Spiky Don's, Mason's, and Red River) scattered throughout the city, as well as specialized cultural restaurants for each species. The food court at the New Vrontu Shopping Mall (close to Station Omega) is generic, yet "packaged" with other retail establishments, and the farmer's market further northeast directly sells the agricultural surroundings' outputs.

Revver decides to look up some Cyclorotan cuisine, as he's feeling homesick.

A black being steps onto the space port. he is casually taking note of his surrounding on a small holopad. The occasional breeze of a passing mind included. He continues walking, checking the current time, and for a place to stay. Note: pardon for inactivity, family matters and whatnot. Note2: I will change the 'bio' as I wrote it hastily. Not much, just expand it more Note3: wonderful drawing Atrox! The part about the arm wings, I should probably rewrite so it is more coherent P.s. you're right about the bag ;-)

Limmy steps onto the spaceport and glances at the ship he followed here. Already, the dreaded black figure with wings was walking away towards security. Keeping his distance, specifically more than 5 meters away, Limmy heads toward the opposite gate. Note: Mitobox, what color is the flora here? I would like to know what kind of cloak he is wearing.

"73 has a sensation of being followed", he speaks quietly, "sensation noted and removed." 73, finished taking notes, folds up, then tucks away his holopad. He continues to walk to one of the security gates. His tail is low to the ground, swaying slightly from side to side. Aside from checking the time and a suitable shelter, his helmet is active on a low scale. His feet produce a faintly audible clicking noise. 73 appears to be calm, but in actuality, he is experiencing little to no feelings or emotions.

Note: I'm gonna say the plants are green. I imagined the forest around New Vrontu as green. The fields are probably a rainbow of foreign alien crops, though.
A promising Cyclorotan restaurant is "The <insert name of Cyxlorotan mythological creature>." It isn't too far from the Nova Hotel.
Both security terminals are occupied by Escgra. This is not a case of an entire species specializing in the same careers; their limited mobility, along with their dexterity from tentacles, simply means that they perform better in administrative lines of work better than they do elsewhere. They were just as economically varied as humans pre-interstellar travel.
They are both scanning identifications of newly-arrived persons.

Is there a line or something? Or is 73 being scanned now?

Is there a line or something? Or is 73 being scanned now? Well, there's this isopod-looking fellow called a Sdribble getting sca- never mind. The crustacean, authenticated, walks off. 73's turn.

73, in an eerily calm fashion, takes the place of 1st in line. 73 pulls his tail around, so his tail just curves around his right leg. He feels the mind of the Escgra and it's emotions.
Note: what should be written when 73 feels someone's emotions?

Note: I did a project on isopods in 4th grade Revver is excited, though not all that surprised, to find that Scalagas actually has one of the most popular chain restaurants from back home: "The Blur." The restaurant shares the name of a mythological icon in Cyclorotan culture. The Blur is a glowing white entity (no one has actually seen it properly) that tends to race past night travelling Cyclorotans at unmatchable speeds. Many a scientist and Blur fanatic have tried to capture a still image of The Blur, but it simply moves to fast for even the most advanced cameras to see it properly. The true form of The Blur is unknown to this day. The restaurant is known for it's exceptionally fast service and delicious food. Revver normally would input the directions to his HoloVisor Helmet, however he is trying to avoid unnecessary attention. He can handle one fanboy, but a whole restaurant? He opts to change into more casual attire, though he still takes his backpack (with his handgun) and decides to bring along the HoloComputer to take him to his destination. He closes all the tabs and opens up ScalagasMaps, types in the address, and begins his drive to "The Blur."

Note: what should be written when 73 feels someone's emotions? I think mitobox will let you know what 73 senses. Just make sure that you specify which organisms you are sensing.

Note: I've changed my description a little.
Selekis steps off the spaceport, ready to make some money. He heads towards the nearest gate, hat low over his face.

The Blur is a bit further east, but on the same city block. It is among the establishments leading up to the corner.
The Escgra is rather curious about 73, but not bothered by his appearance or attitude in the slightest.

Revver drives east until he gets to The Blur. He rolls along inside.
He takes in his surroundings.

The Blur has many chairs and tables. Plants from the Cyclorotan homeworld rest in pots on each table, and many photographs of its landscapes and cities are hung on the walls. There are mostly Cyclorotans in the restaurant, taking up about half the number of customers right now. The employees are Cyclorotans as well; this is the key to fast service.
A waiter greets Revver, assuming little from his civilian "disguise." He drives up to him. "Hello, welcome to The Blur. Are you here alone?"
The gate 73 is not at is now free for Limmy to go to. Selekis could wait behind either of the two.

"Yeah table for one." replies Revver. He is elated to see all the Cyclorotans in one place and has been wondering how Cyclos has been for the past 2 months
