It was nearly midnight by the time the VTOL touched down. When it did, a "drunk" MedíCarro attendant sat slumped in one of the rear seats, and an uncomfortable-looking Fede wore the flayed skin costume of Xipe Totec. We’d used some of the synthetic spray skin from the first aid kit to create loops of flesh under Fede’s ears to hold the priest’s ear plugs, and had hung the golden pectoral around his neck. The former ollamaliztli player now was wearing a fortune in gold. We used more spray skin to smooth out some of the scars on his face, then painted it with bands of red using cinnamon-flavored mints from a cupboard that held snacks.
