Five
besides
Twissell
!
Senior
Computers
all
,
none
less
than
thirtyfive
years
an
Eternal
.
Six
weeks
earlier
Harlan
would
have
been
overwhelmed
by
the
honor
of
sitting
at
lunch
with
such
a
group
,
tongue
-
tied
by
the
combination
of
responsibility
and
power
they
represented
.
They
would
have
seemed
twice
life
-
size
to
him
.
But
now
they
were
antagonists
of
his
,
worse
still
,
judges
.
He
had
no
time
to
be
impressed
.
He
had
to
plan
his
strategy
.
They
might
not
know
that
he
was
aware
they
had
Noys
.
They
could
not
know
unless
Finge
told
them
of
his
last
meeting
with
Harlan
.
In
the
clear
light
of
day
,
however
,
he
was
more
than
ever
convinced
that
Finge
was
not
the
man
to
broadcast
publicly
the
fact
that
he
had
been
browbeaten
and
insulted
by
a
Technician
.
It
seemed
advisable
,
then
,
for
Harlan
to
nurse
this
possible
advantage
for
the
time
being
,
to
let
them
make
the
first
move
,
say
the
first
sentence
that
would
join
actual
combat
.
They
seemed
in
no
hurry
.
They
stared
at
him
placidly
over
an
abstemious
lunch
as
though
he
were
an
interesting
specimen
spreadeagled
against
a
plane
of
force
by
mild
repulsors
.
In
desperation
Harlan
stared
back
.
He
knew
all
of
them
by
reputation
and
by
trimensional
reproduction
in
the
physiomonthly
orientation
films
.
The
films
co
-
ordinated
developments
throughout
the
various
Sections
of
Eternity
and
were
required
viewing
for
all
Eternals
with
rating
from
Observer
up
.
August
Sennor
,
the
bald
one
(
not
even
eyebrows
or
eyelashes
)
,
of
course
attracted
Harlan
most
.
First
,
because
the
odd
appearance
of
those
dark
,
staring
eyes
against
bare
eyelids
and
forehead
was
remarkably
greater
in
person
than
it
had
ever
seemed
in
trimension
.
Second
,
because
of
his
knowledge
of
past
collisions
of
view
between
Sennor
and
Twissell
.
Finally
,
because
Sennor
did
not
confine
himself
to
watching
Harlan
.
He
shot
questions
at
him
in
a
sharp
voice
.
