Who: Richard Castle and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: On the Windrose if you want
When: January 10th, morning

[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?

A cop and a writer! And now I guess you get to add astronaut too.

[thebestseller]

Oh, gosh, I only wish. The writer thing led to the job with the police force, though technically I'm not a cop. I got brought in as a suspect after a killer started basing their murders on my books, helped them solve the case, and somehow wormed my way into a consulting spot.

[mistyday]

Lord, what the hell is wrong with people, that they gotta start murderin' based off what they see in a book? Ain't right.

[thebestseller]

Yeah, it was pretty creepy. The police also had to go through my fan mail and everything, see if whoever it was had written to me to brag. At the time, I didn't take it seriously, but it's pretty unsettling now.

[mistyday]

At least you caught them, right?

[thebestseller]

Yeah, which was a good thing. Even stopped the police from convicting the wrong guy.

[mistyday]

Well that's good. You solve most of your murders?

[thebestseller]

Oh yeah, we have an awesome track record. One of the best in New York City, in fact- Kate and her partners and I must be doing something right.

[mistyday]

That's good. You seem like a good man.

[Said like that's an unusual thing for her - because of course, it is.]

[thebestseller]

I try my best.
