Argus did not come to nightlife-sectors to mingle; he came to these locales for one reason.
For girls with blue-black skin, glittering slick as oil skimming all those innocent rivers on Baseworld.
Toxic hosts to the organic narcotics their employers paid them handsomely to administer.
And it was simple; just the smallest kiss, her mouth soft against his eager lips.
He snatched an extra hit before she could move away.
“Not a wise choice, sir.” She laughed.
Argus opened his mouth to say something smooth, but he could taste her overdose on his tongue before the temporary dysarthria even set in.

Is there hint here of a kiss being a sort of narcotoc? I think that's brilliant. I think the ending fell a little flat and could have carried the metaphor a bit more but on the whole, I greatly enjoyed this.
