[ Someone's looking very grumpy for 4 am space time.  Maybe because someone tripped over the additional security system her roommate forgot to mention he installed and had the living hell scared out of her. ]

Hypothetically speaking, could one just. Stay in the hold. Like for a visit. Or does a murder need to be committed. Because hypothetically speaking I'm giving it some consider-

[ From somewhere in the darkness, a voice calls out. Lara tenses a moment before the sound registers. ]  Feeling a little less hypothetical about this.  Sorry, Miller.  Security system my bloody ar-- [The rest is cut off, because someone is going to chuck a furby at SOMEONE'S Ishmael's head. ]

[...oh no, she's going to have to stop Miller from destroying one now, isn't she... And also getting up to go retrieve it and hold it up for the smol to see. ]

They showed up in the mail one day. There were a bunch in the cargo bay, I have no idea where they are now.

May I have one?

[Robin gives a small, but genuine smile at the furby. She's always been a fan of cute things and of creepy things, and this delightful little toy is a mix of both!]

I-If you find any others, I mean. I don't want to take one of the ones you're using.

[Robin's willing to steal a lot of things, but she won't steal Lara's furbies. Not from a loving home, like the one Lara no-doubt provides for them.]

[rraidergirl]

[ God, she's going to have to stop Miller from destroying the furbies, she'll never be free. ]

I'm sure there's still plenty left, there were... quite a few. And I can't speak for Ishmael, but I'm not using any of them. Help yourself.

[devilofohara]

Really?

[She looks ecstatic to be on the receiving end of such a gift. You did good, Lara.]

Y-you don't mind? I don't want to take your toys away...

[rraidergirl]

[ That actually gets a smile out of Lara, sleepy grumpy face that she is at the moment. ]

I don't mind at all. I'd rather they go to someone who likes them, anyway.

[devilofohara]

Wow, thank you so much!

[She's so excited to be getting a furby. She'll give it a name and put it on a shelf and listen to it talk in its weird mechanical voice.

Please take this opportunity to remember that this child has a degree in archaeology. She is Lara's academic peer in virtually every sense of the phrase.]

By the way, what are these things called?

[rraidergirl]

You're very welcome.

[ That's adorable and frankly, Lara wouldn't know what to do with the information. She'd probably be more comfortable dealing with Robin as a peer than a child. ]

They're call Furbies. They were a very popular toy from when I was a child.
