 [This is a video of the scattered mess of tiny robot parts she's made in one corner of the cargo bay.]

I managed to get a few of these things put together, but at this rate, it's going to take me another week.  I'm really not sure what I'm meant to do with a dozen or so robot vacuum cleaners to begin with.  I'm open to some suggestions.

[The feed switches to voice as Lara adds after a tentative pause. ]

I may have also received a video meant for someone else, something about Pax.

Comments

[ It's good. It eases some of the panic that's been churning in River's stomach since the word Pax was mentioned. The file can go to sleep and not wake up unless she needs it. ]

I'm not saying a eulogy.

[ She's carried it long enough. People paid the price for it to reach the world. Now it would go into the dark and stay there. ]

Then we won't give it one.

[ Lara does dig a pen out of the pocket of her uniform pants and scrawls PAX across the label of the file. She kneels back down to return the file to the drawer, closing it back up. The soft roll and thump has a strangely final sound to it in the quiet library. ]

There.
