[Video broadcast]

So, folks, I woke up to find that my fleet of cleaning droids suddenly doubled. All of them need names- I only have Cameron, Robocop and Leopardon so far. Got any suggestions? I'm a big sci-fi fan so I'd love to name all of them after famous robots, but I'll take anything.

[And on the Windrose, Castle could be found following his new troops, a big, goofy smile on his face.]

Don't work yourselves too hard now, hmm?

Comments

[thebestseller]

Yeah... someone was basing their murders off the ones I write in my books, so I was briefly taken in as a suspect. I helped her solve the case and have stuck like a burr to the NYPD since.

[flickerflash]

[She giggles. This sounds kind of like a movie.] Was she the one who arrested you? No wonder you fell in love.

[thebestseller]

That she was- she had to cuff me more than once, in fact. [He'd enjoyed it just as much as Kate had, but there was no need to spoil this poor child's mind like that.]

[flickerflash]

[Eternally amused that you're talking to a future cop who'll be called Kate. But yes, she's got an innocent mind here, so--] Why? Did you try to escape?

[thebestseller]

I might have a bit. I have, shall we say, a propensity to stick my nose where it doesn't belong. And I sometimes don't follow orders too well.

[flickerflash]

You sound rather like a cat.

[SHE APPROVES.]

[thebestseller]

Pretty much. I just can't let go of my curiosity.

[flickerflash]

Curiosity killed the cat. [She grins.] Satisfaction brought it back.

[thebestseller]

People always forget the second part.

[flickerflash]

That's all right. I'll remind them. [Every time.]

[thebestseller]

Good.
