Plesur stared out the window, completely absorbed in the passing scene. Shop fronts, pedestrians, the sheets of glass and steel soaring up into the darkness, the huge logos flashing on and off in the sky, it was all new to her, and utterly fascinating.

Big helium-filled ad floaters slithered by overhead, lights flashing, advertising scrolling across their bellies.

Soozie parked in an underground lot and led them around the corner and down a set of stone steps. A red door opened into a pulsing atmosphere filled with noise, alcohol, a faint odor of sweat, and a variety of fragrances. Pink and amber panels glowed in the low ceiling and the tables along the walls. They took a table toward the back, where Plesur watched the dancers on the raised dance floor as they flexed and spun, thrust and wobbled, looking like well-oiled automatons.

Soozie was well known here and well-wishers, male and female, came up to hug and kiss. While the dress code was about as relaxed as possible without actual nudity, none of what he was seeing and hearing shocked Rook, who had extensive experience in the uninsured world. What did drop his jaw was their waitress. Her face was an exact duplicate of Plesur. Every detail from her wide blue eyes to her pert little nose. She was a Pammy, but as different from Plesur as someone with identical genetic makeup could be. Her hair was short and black, her bosom had been flattened by surgery to something approaching a normal size, and her eyes had a hard cast to them that spoke of worldly awareness. When she spoke it wasn’t with Plesur’s soft little burr, either, but a flat New York accent complete with attitude.

“Hi, I’m Ivana. What can I getcha?”

“Marijuana,” said Soozie briefly before turning back to a young black woman in a tight-fitting suit of golden spandex. “And not that medicinal shit, either.”

Plesur stared at the waitress, astonished. For a long moment the pleasure models locked eyes.
