(Trowa doesn't know how a conversation with Captain Singh would really go. He's never spent much time thinking about it, nor wanted to. There's no point in planning it out; if the captain ever comes to Milliways, they'll find out then.

But whatever he might have pictured -- it wasn't that.

It didn't feel like a dream either.)

He doesn't say any of that.

What he says is, "A lot of people around Milliways talk pretty freely."

"We can see what turns up."

It's not the same as a more active investigation -- but if there's some sort of dream magic going around, that seems the kind of thing you're likely to hear about.

(Especially if you regard eavesdropping as a lifelong hobby. Um.)
