Both Kidd and Bonnie are approached at nearly the same time. Kidd by the oddly cheerful former information broker; Bonnie by a penguin wearing a Santa hat. Quak?

Kaji offers a drink, cider, to Kidd as he approaches. It's almost an apology. He opens his mouth, pauses, and then looks down and laughs wryly at himself. "Sorry. That I wasn't there to back you up. Noticed you didn't come back with the little traitor fluffball in chains." And he does sound sorry about that fact.
