It isn't really sinking in for Felix, either. Somehow, he always manages to get back to Milliways; even if it's a long time between visits, like a week or two, a door always turns up in the end. He's got faith it'll work out.

He scans the street. They're in a part of town with a few scattered restaurants and cafés. Maybe they should just go back home, but...a door's a door, right? So, determinedly, he starts off toward the nearest one.

(And if they were getting strange looks before, they're garnering even stranger ones now that they have two fox cubs in tow.)

They halt outside a restaurant. Felix cranes his neck back to look up at the sign; then, with a look of great concentration, he shuts his eyes and carefully, carefully, nudges it open.

In the distance, the Observation Window rewinds, and Felix opens his eyes. His whole face brightens.

"It worked!"
