---

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan shuffles around Mairin's apartment. She's got plenty of snacks, some arranged in the smallest glass tupperware she has access to. She's got little playset teacups that might still be too big. She's never invited a mouse over to hang out. At least her phone with the Netflix account Peter helped her set up would be like a giant screen TV for Kaida. She isn't really sure how the mouse girl is going to show up. Would she knock? Susan truly has no idea.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
When it comes to Kaida, it's best to never guess for certain but she does have some degree of manners. She also has the capacity to come in from every direction so she goes with the path that, for her, seems to be the easiest and there's a tapping on the window. Outside the window, standing comfortably on the sill is a tiny mouse girl in a cloak to cover her shield and sword. She smiles and waves when noticed, tapping more when necessary.

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan half expected that, so she's ready. She moves quickly to the window and opens it a couple inches. Plenty for Kaida. "Hey!" she says, a smile on her face. She closes it again once Kaida is inside. "Welcome! How've you been? Feels like forever," she says. She offers a hand, palm up, more for Kaida to hop into than to shake, though it's not strictly necessary.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A grin and Kaida hops on to the hand, she's kinda used to people doing that at this point. For her, riding on another person is pretty common at this point. She waits to be carried to another spot and only looks around casually, taking in the various sights around her to get the lay of the land.

"Yeah, I get really busy. I have a lot of people to check on! Even though I'm fast, there's just a lot of people to help out there and a lot of people over looked." She smiles brightly, "What can ya do though, right? Hopefully you have been well!"

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    "I'm--" Susan hesitates. She looks at the empty pizza box in the trash which makes her smile. "I'm doing really well," she finally says. She puts Kaida down in front of a dollhouse on the counter top. She pulls up a stool so they're on roughly the same level before pulling over the snack bowl and teensy cup and stuff. "Can I get you anything?" Susan asks.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
"You don't have to but I am always up for a small snack and a drink." She grins and shrugs, "My body works at such an intense rate, it's kinda hard to ever not feel hungry." She nods and shrugs, "You get used to it rather quickly but also get used to always having snacks." She laughs and shrugs before looking at the dollhouse. She puts a hand on her hips and grins.

"That's neat!" She states and looks at Susan, "I wouldn't think of you as someone who plays with dolls." She laughs and nods her head, "I have similar stuff back at the Tower. I kinda used a lot of stuff like this to build myself a whole neighborhood, though not nearly as clean in the craftsmanship." She laughs

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    "Oh," Susan says, looking at the tiny bowl. She looks at the fridge and lets out a soft, "Hmmm." She gets up and opens it, pulling out a box of chocolate-covered peanut butter patties, a girlscout cookie favorite for her. She opens the new box and pulls out the tray of cookies. "Eat as much as you want," Susan says. "Though, I warn you, the dollhouse's bathroom is both not private and nonfunctional." She looks around the various rooms of the dollhouse. "I'm decent at prop replication," she says, entirely too modestly. "Dad and I worked on some props that got used in movies before I left home to apprentice with an antique restoration place in China." She adjusts a tiny pillow on a sofa a room over from where Kaida stood in front of. "It's really been nice to have someone to make stuff for. I can't really change anything in the apartment, since Mairin rents and I'm apartment-sitting for her."

Kaida Connolly has posed:
"Ah!" She nods her head, "I see, well, you have a considerable talent for it!" She grins and nods her head before considering, "Honestly, I could see myself paying for options that involve this stuff." She grins at the woman and looks back at the sofa, taking a cookie in hand befoer walking over to look at it as she chows down. She is a real talent for not spilling much in the way of crumbs despite her food's size even as she easily devours half in many tiny, fast bites.

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan watches her eat and, without thinking, runs her fingertips along Kaida's head and down her back. She then realizes what she's done. "Oh, sorry," she says. She clears her throat. "Well, what do you want? I've got access to some really impressive fabrication tech, so I can basically make anything. Though, Titan Tower probably has way better tech fab stuff than me."

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A small giggle is brought by Kaida and she eyes Susan with a smirk, "Susan, I'm not a pet. I'm a person." She smiles and finishes off her cookie, "I know I'm cute and small, but trust me, I'm still a woman." She shakes her head before looking over at the stuff in the house and adding.

"As for what I want, jeeze. I'd have to make a list. Most of my stuff is makeshift and jury-rigged right now."

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan blushes slightly as she's corrected, but she accepts it and tries to do better. She folds her arms in front of herself on the counter and rests her chin on her stacked forearms. "I'm not allowed into GIRL headquarters, or I'd--wait, Titan Tower," she realizes. She shakes her head a bit and sits up slightly. "Would they let me wander around in there to visit? I could see what all you have and start making you whatever you're willing to pay for."

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A smile and she laughs, "You could come in as a guest." She nods her head at Susan and then shrugs, "I don't know about wander but certainly come in as my guest to see my room and you could help me update things. I would really enjoy having something more, umm." Kaida taps her chin a little and considers the words.

"Something more human?" She grins and shrugs.

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan nods. "I can also make you clothes if you want, like, a fitted suit of armor or something. I can't work with adamantium or vibranium or whatever, but I figure I'd offer. Copper farraday suits must be virtually impossible to find in your size." She blinks as something hits her, then she smiles broadly. "I'm Cinderella," she then starts laughing at herself for some reason.

Kaida Connolly has posed:
A smirk at Susan and Kaida laughs a little as she finishes off another cookie before shaking her head. She walks over to sit on the couch that was created and looks at Susan with a hmm.

"Sadly, any armor that wasn't made out of some seriously tough stuff wouldn't survive me." She chuckles and shrugs, "I'm fast and I'm hit sometimes by some seriously tough people." She nods her head, "Though I appreciate the offer." She shrugs and then looks at the couch and pats it.

"Honestly, it'd just be nice to have a little normalcy. I am very used to being small but at the same time, people don't really build for my size."

Susan Sullivan has posed:
    Susan smiles some. "I was about to apologize for doing such a rushed job," she says, despite everything looking at least ikea levels of 'good enough'. She picks up one of the peanut butter patties and takes a teensy bite. "I'll do a better job if you commission something," she promises. "Um...you wanna watch Netflix or something?"
