[That's definitely not Illumi putting on a brave face. That's just... him, and isn't that fascinating. The minds among the LIERs really are a treat. Doesn't quite make up for the fact that this place doesn't suit Pegasus at all, but he'll take what positives he can get.]
That's definitely the case for the LIERs, but that might be giving the natives a little too much credit. Most of them are already in contracts and well indoctrinated. For them, much of that is just indulgence.
[Like kicking back on the weekend with a glass of wine. Except, you know, it's an aphrodisiac instead.]
Oh, don't worry. I know my way around. [He hasn't had much of a wander of the Down, but he hasn't needed to. He knows what spots to avoid, and he knows how to reach the submissive housing.] Our devices have a GPS, besides. In the unlikely event that my sense of direction fails us, I'll just bring that out.
[Once outside, Pegasus gestures him down a footpath. They'll need to reach the central elevator from here, catch a ride to the Down, then they can have a nice stroll while being hollered at by strangers, probably. He might know what places in the Down one should definitely avoid, but that doesn't mean they can avoid unpleasantness entirely.]
