Riffy has been mentioned earlier in name only and Binder is always getting him and Gilrec mixed up, which is funny since they're nothing alike. But Binder is actually a sponge, and Riffy is his very wealthy friend. Binder, Riffy, Mad Mallidon, and Gilrec were all at university together on the Terran homeworld. I probably should add some dialog explaining who Riffy is. That's a good idea as I'm writing up the next page this very minute. I'm glad you brought that question up! :smile: Yes, maybe I should explain that.

Riffy strikes me as the sort that *would* use upper-class British slang. One thing I'd like to know, though -- who exactly *is* Riffy? I thought *he* was *Binder's* servant.

It's become my favorite, I think. Ruth: I think since Bentley is aready so much like Jeeves, I'd rather not use that name. But thanks for the input! :grin: SEA: Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I really liked the banter between him and Binder in that panel. Yes, I have to admit, Tilton has a nice ring to it. It’s become my favorite, I think.

Actually I did mean "topping mechanic" but it's such an archaic phrase. I think I watch too many old movies and BBC shows that take place in the 20s and 30s (and all the classic books.) :mrgreen: I should really come up with something more, what's the word? Not up to date, but basically make up some good sounding lingo that works in the scifi world of the clueless rich kids. Pix says "ultra sweet". But that's her phrase. Anyway, thanks for the kudos!

But anyway, just one thing: "a topping mechanic"? I assume you mean "top." :grin: Kudos for the new page! He’s so a Tilton. But anyway, just one thing: “a topping mechanic”?
