I don't, but who knows—maybe the hotel manager would let you borrow some.
[ After his armor plating is off, he grabs a towel off the train rack above the sink and disappears into the bathroom. Taking off his undersuit and slipping into the shower gives him time for something else that's a rare opportunity, these days—the chance to talk to Theta alone. Theta can't project since he's not wearing his armor, but North has the distinct impression of a small boy playing in the water. They talk for a while about the previous several days and all that has happened before North is fully clean. Finally, he emerges from the shower and dries off. The undersuit needs to be cleaned before North can slip it back on; he rinses it out and scrubs it with body soap on the inside, then dries it as thoroughly as he can with the towel. By the time he comes out of the bathroom proper, it's been over an hour. ]
