I'm building a very specific trap. I may be able to re-use it, it's a test of greed...and greedy people are the easiest to catch.

[More soberly:]

But what about you? Is there anything you want from the workshop, to remember Amanda by?

[noasark]

[Noa finds himself looking around the workshop in silence. At the traps, the machines. The batteries, the wires, the...

...ah.]

...That fog machine.

...we used it, once.

[knifemonopoly]

It's all yours.

[Atem packs up the parts he needs in a padded case. He'll also grab the fog machine for Noa. Bro can't carry it where he is.]

Is there a story behind it?

[One Noa would like to tell, anyway.]

[noasark]

...There is. ...It's a long one though, [he warns.]

I don't know if right now is the best time.

[knifemonopoly]

If we had a longer walk back, maybe. But these keys are efficient!

Still...I'd like to hear it, sometime. We didn't always agree, but she was a good teacher.

[jigsaw family be like.

Anyway, he picks up the fog machine with his free hand, tucks it under an arm, and heads for the door.]

[noasark]

Hmmm.

Some day soon then, [he purrs, somehow sitting straighter as they head out.] I think you'll at least find it interesting.

[knifemonopoly]

What you have to say usually is.

[And THAT'S WHY Noa CAN'T BE REPLACED with a BABY LION.]
