First -- you can stay in my house until the next flood. When that happens, you have to leave. So you'd better find someone else with a cabin you can trust, or you'll be spending a lot of time in Zero.
...or in the power-proofed infirmary room, which might be more comfortable.
Two: I have a feeling that if I tell you not to snoop, that's only going to make you want to do it more. It'll only lead to wacky misadventures where you get into precisely what I was trying to keep you away from and all my work is ruined.
So, let me get this out of the way. The most interesting thing I have in this house is a secret room in the basement that has what's left of a transdimensional gateway in it. I'm trying to use the materials to build a ship that'll let me travel between realities. Some of those alloys don't even exist in the real world and can't be replaced.
Getting that ship is very important to me.
If something you do down there makes them unusable and I can't complete the project, I will never speak to you again.
Do you remember that agreement we almost made? The one where you would be sure to be honest with me, and signal me when you were lying for comedic effect?
Don't you want a resident demon who brings you your slippers and kills people who bother you and leaves dead animals in weird pentagrams on your floor, Ford?]

[To be fair: the chair in question is wide enough for two butts and pretty comfortable. Easy to nap in.]

Although that room is also stinky and full of dirty magazines, so it might have worked out.]
Remember, in exchange, I want to know when you're telling the truth.

Oh, yeah, forgot about the lack of pyrotechnics.
Anyway, deal.
