"Sure do," Gerry replies, jovial, nodding to the one on the fiddle. "One of 'em is a woman, even. You've never heard of a satyr?"
Gerry's heard the Deadwood Five play a few times now, enjoying their energy. A group of four brothers and a sister from the island's only satyr family.
Noting Carolina's choice of drink, Gerry sticks to beer. It's his preference anyway, and he figures he ought to stay somewhat more sober so that if the birthday girl needs anything, there's someone around in a fit state to help with it.
"Eighteen hours? Christ. That's worse than the time I took a wrong turn in the Distortion's hallways and he let me stay lost for an indiscernible amount of time just for fun. Mum said I was gone for two days, but I wasn't really perceiving time. I'd rather blank out for two days than actively live through eighteen hours of bullshit."
