Oh my god you can have cybernetic arms we won

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive I am fond of you living and breathing, Teddy.

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive I am afraid for your safety that I should decline.

NEW CYBERWARE AND A DUAL WIELDING PLAYSTYLE IS COMING TO CYBERPUNK 2077 MAN WTF.

6 years after release and they’re adding a whole new gun system 😭😭

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive —nestling a hand-labeled container of something reverently among the hair care, “I would enjoy something ‘spooky’.”

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

I would enjoy that.

[ Maybe. He still gets a little funky about picking up such things. The bed inches along with a push, Teddy still on it. Hard to arrange things when the bed has to be so damn big, but them’s the breaks. ]

I am fine. I am accustomed to moving.

[｢𝒕𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒚.ᐟ｣ @adatahive]

We could get you *more frivolous things!

[Or not. It's not his choice. It's entirely up to Stratos. But that doesn't mean Teddy won't keep making suggestions.]

I know you're still getting organized, but are you settling alright so far?

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive “Spooky?”

The word is turned over and examined. It’s not that he doesn’t know it, he’s just not entirely sure what would be conceptualized as ‘spooky’ for non-NC citizens.

Interestingly, he doesn’t move the lip liner. Good job, Teddy.

“Yes,” he decides finally,—

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive —lacks. Mascara, eye liner, lip paint. For a guy who it doesn’t really apply to his occupation, he’s somewhat meticulous about his appearance.

“Will be watching one of your movies or TV shows?”

Aka: can they pretty please have non-NC entertainment.

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive Why would he care? His only concern, looking at it, is whether he might accidentally pop the poor jellies when he sits.

“Yes. That. I would like noodles and dumplings. I would also appreciate those…chicken ball creations.”

Brows furrow as he lines up exactly what Teddy—

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive —much preening he actually does; the counter very quickly fills. ]

I do not know. Noodles is usually a good idea.

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive I am not a restaurant person. I am an object of intimidation at a restaurant person.

[ It…might be a joke. Hard to tell on that one. He holds Teddy’s hand the whole way, and then lets go to start puttering and arranging. The worst part of space management is just how—

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive —I would like to order in, if that is acceptable. My energy reserves are extensive but the idea of going out is odious.

[ Hands out to the Teddy. ]

Come. I am doing the bathing products and then I will be ready. We can talk and order while I do so.

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive [ It helps when he’s nervous. Makes him feel more control over a situation. Not that this is a ‘situation’, and it’s not a bad thing, but if it’s perfect to start, then other changes can be accepted more readily. ]

Good. If you are pleased, then I am pleased.—

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

@adatahive [ Stepping back. Staring. Gaze flicking around every corner of the room. He moves, nudges a dresser over a few inches. ]

I am perfectly comfortable and content.

[ A beat. ]

It is the first time I have moved into a place and not felt an intruding stranger, if that helps.

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

[ Pausing in the middle of moving a floor lamp for the twelfth time. ]

I do not have collectibles really. I have a few favorite items but most of them are small. Or practical.

I did not start owning frivolous things until very recently, Teddy.

[｢𝒕𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒚.ᐟ｣ @adatahive]

[Maybe that'll change!]

Okay~

[And she's wiggling her way down, bebopping over to hop on the bed. Bounce bounce. Rolling to lay on her tummy.]

I have extra shelving too if you have like, collectibles or anything.

[She's got hers all over the place, most of them have been --

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

[ Brows twitching subtly together. ]

I do enjoy gaming but I will not need much room.

[ His fantasy MMO has gone quite some time without attention anyway. ]

You may stay. I would recommend sitting on the bed. It is much easier moving something with you on it than you yourself.

[｢𝒕𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒚.ᐟ｣ @adatahive]

Well, I made room anyway. In case you wanna put a computer in there for gaming or something.

[Shrug.]

Oooh. Mr Particular, huh?

[Nudge nudge. He's joking, of course. He's pretty particular himself.] Can I at least sit and bother you while you do it?

[19-9 - Stratos Incultix @NCSecure]

It is mostly going to be your office. I am not much of an “office guy”.

[ audible air quotes only this time. He doesn’t really have the spare hand. ]

I do not need help. I wish for things to be arranged somewhat particularly, at least to start, and then I will surrender it.

[｢𝒕𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒚.ᐟ｣ @adatahive]

Do you want any help?

[Lifting her shirt to wipe the drool spot off his arm.]

Not much. Reorganizing the closet and my-...*the office.
