Turtle is very aware of how his alts are having lots of sex. He's not opposed to them having sex. Actually, he supports it completely. They'd fuck him, too, if he were a woman.

Adana blinks.
"Errr. Occasionally, not that often, though. Sorry, I thought those were just a fashion statement, whoops."

"Anyway, the Chamomile set and me and Prime and extraneous Zevs can amuse ourselves in this ship talking amongst ourselves, possibly quizzing Ice's alethiometer or playing cards or something. Go get your dad."

Adana tries to help keep him upright, and soon enough - they are at a place that looks like it's the appropriate house.

And a man opens the door. He looks like a genuine mess, some combination of 'hasn't showered in days' and 'has possibly been doing a lot of drinking.'
"... Can I help you?" he asks.

Max... is really bothered by seeing an alt of his dad like this. He makes a Vaguely Distressed face.

"What, are you the media, come to interview me about 'delinquents'? Because I want no part in it."
