Long takes the most direct route through the underground tunnels beneath the space-dock to get to the cantina. He strolls along carelessly past the junkies shooting up 'stardust' in the dark corners, oblivious to a group of Holon Veil's security forces violently extracting rent from a Zabrak, completely uninterested in a couple of Humans engaging in semi-intercourse next to crates of cromium6. He passes an XS-800 in terrible need of repair on the space-dock, and barely registers an archaic super battle droid unloading dead lifeforms from the ship as he goes to access a computer terminal. He asks the computer if Dez Synn is working at the cantina right now......"Yes: 1200-2000 hours"..... With this information he knows his odds of not getting kicked out of the cantina have risen considerably. Flik, his former master, had paid Dez a total of 575 credits for biological companionship on 15 separate occasions within a 30 day period. This, Long surmised, meant Flik 'had a thing' for Dez and she was as close to a friend that his master had, excluding Long. His thought process was momentarily distracted by a Basilisk yelling at one of the docking authorities...
"Here take your lousy credits but if you touch my ship I'll blow off yer hands!"
