“Don’t wait for a tip,” said Fi and wondered where he’d picked up the phrase.

One of the CSF officers brought a tray of caf in flimsi cups and handed Fi one first. A camaraderie had sprung up: Fi rather liked it. The cops actually seemed in awe of what he’d done, and he began to realize that it felt good to be held in that kind of regard.

“No cookies?” said Skirata, and took a cup.

The squad took their helmets off to drink. The officer seemed distracted for a moment, staring at their faces. “I’ll see what I can do,” he said.

“Don’t wait for a tip,” said Skirata. Fi smiled to himself.


AHA.
Also it makes you wonder. Kal is a generous tipper in Triple Zero, especially toward workers. But here he pulls like this against cops. :DDDD Because I already have a quote in my head from Triple Zero, I think Kal is generally not in good terms with the law, but also he was like: don't do irresponsible shit like this Fi, NOT FOR THESE PEOPLE.
