Find the lamp / 03
Third ring.
The last turn.
Come by the public-port pedestrian route. Once you reach the room, put down your case before deciding whether to talk.
The floor, here.
The counter sits in a local zone near one g. Glasses and feet can settle in their usual places. This describes the bar floor, separately from a vessel’s acceleration; it says nothing about every other deck.
If you or a companion needs a different floor condition, confirm the pedestrian and transfer route before arriving. These notes cannot replace the port’s instructions on the day.
Leave the passage open.
Travel cases, tool bags and long pieces stay beside the wall, away from the passage behind the stools. If you have come from another gravity condition, allow yourself a moment before sitting down.
You need not order alcohol before asking for water. If you need a different place to sit, tell the counter.
Keep the sound the size of the room.
Take calls outside when you can. Do not photograph, record or document another guest without permission. Earth is large enough for the camera; it need not include the person beside you.
We do not publish who is sitting here, or turn an anonymous paper tag into a directory of names.
Leave a bottle by agreement.
At the counter we agree a tag code, written date, review or expiry date, and retrieval method. The public record can stay anonymous. Actual collection still follows the private agreement.
An expired arrangement needs review before anything else. It is not permission to empty a bottle or dispose of property. A delivery needs a separate handoff; a lookup is not one.
Bring a small outline.
Choose a purpose and leave yourself an opening sentence. It is prepared only on your page; it holds no seat and contacts no one at the counter.
