Everybody Loves Irving was the sixty-second Bernice Summerfield audio story released by Big Finish Productions. It was the third story of the Legion series.
Publisher's summary
Bernice and Braxiatel have never quite seen eye-to-eye...but now he wants to make amends. He's taking her on a leisure drive across Legion's deadly surface to an Ikerian settlement not far from Legion City. Their mission: shopping.
The Ikerians are renowned traders, dealing in everything from the finest art to cut-price battlecruisers. They're willing to do a good deal too. After all, they know Irving Braxiatel of old... and better than this Brax knows himself.
Everywhere they go and everyone they deal with, Braxiatel's reputation precedes him. He has good friends and even better enemies... but one thing's for certain. Everybody loves Irving.
Plot
Irving takes Benny across Legion on a surface trawler to Ikeria City where he purchases a launch silo and a Sartak Explorer Mark VI from Lord Galot, an old friend of the Braxiatel that Benny knew and who has a tracker placed on their trawler. The next day, Irving takes Benny to the silo and leaves her to explore and see what work needs doing whilst he contacts structural engineers, providers of solar panels and an interior designer.
Ruth approaches Peter and tries to get to know him, but he tells her that Antonio says that something is wrong with her and that he does not like Peter being around her. He leaves, telling Ruth that she will never meet Antonio. Later, Jack approaches him and asks about Antonio, whom nobody else, not even Irving, has met. Peter explains that Irving found him in a slave pit on Bastian and brought Antonio to Legion with several other slaves.
