It's ridiculous. And the Nexus? Forget it." Arbitrary systems grate on Caspar's silicon-wired nerves, although the chance to complain about it with someone else is not a bad consolation prize.
Adia laughs a little at the description of Tiber. "Anastasia is not one to get underfoot, although she has a bad habit of squeezing herself into places she isn't supposed to be."
"And then falling asleep and leaving us to frantically search our entire property for her," Caspar mutters, although the gentle way he scratches behind the cat's ears suggest that she's easily forgiven.
Adia eats a bit of her food while Norn answers her question. She doesn't miss the drooping antennae or downcast expression, but tries not to draw attention to it, not wanting to damper his mood further. "Compatible set of partners to contract with?" she repeats, making sure she heard him correctly. "Do you mean marriage?"
