[ Nothing a little duct tape won't fix! Until the sock gets caught in the seam between door and wall, at least, and then — alright, they're going to have to figure out something else. ]

it's uh
sort of a code. between roommates. like
"if the spaceship's a-rocking, don't come knocking" ?

[ Yeah, that's probably not going to help either. Time to start earning that education job. ]

just a polite way to say "don't come in" in situations where knocking might not.

be heard

[not being able to supplement weird Americanisms with telepathy is such a pain]

There is nowhere to put a sock. Unless you leave it in the hallway




I hope you aren't allergic to cats

[niffin]

well we'll figure something out

i'm not allergic. i'm bringing a cat actually, that probably would've been a good question to ask you. better than socks at least.

can we start over? hi, i'm alice.

[seeingscarlet]

I'm Wanda but I think you know that already

We're not allergic. Athena and I have cats already

[niffin]

i wish i could say it was psychic intuition, but the directory's a little more useful. it's good to meet you, anyway

cam'll love that. i think he misses his brothers

[seeingscarlet]

['Psychic intuition.' Hoo boy.

On the other side of the screen, Wanda makes a face - that's rarely a fun conversation for anyone.]

The Ingress brought your cat?

Zora won't mind. She is more like a dog sometimes.

dskjh i love that icon

[niffin]

yeah, he came through with me

[ Alice can't decide whether that was a kindness, but better Cam than one of those fucking shark mermaids. ]

so did a fish. that one wasn't. alive, though. or a pet

are you around to introduce them now?

she makes some great faces in other movies

[seeingscarlet]

Was there supposed to be a fish?

I can be back in 5 minutes.

[niffin]

cool, see you then

[ She's perched on the edge of one of the little pod-beds when Wanda arrives; bundled in a uniform easily a size or two too big. From her shoulder, a growing black kitten issues a sleepy miao at the new arrival, and Alice finally squints up. ]

I'd come shake your hand, but, um. [ She points up to the cat, before glancing back down to her MIDI. ] Anyway, this is Cambyses. You guys have games on these things?
