Interdimensional gate-crashing is a physical impossibility

X slips in through the front door of her apartment, ducking down to bar Steve McQueen's passage out into the hallway.

Farrah makes her own break for it several seconds later.

Apparently she is learning from the best.

X does not sigh.

There would be very little point.

Beyond this, Elle doesn't do anything more than stroke his fur.

The right way.

Without static electricity.

Eventually Steve McQueen starts to purr.

Then Farrah gets envious.

X bends down to scoop her up off the floor and deposit her in her own lap.

Farrah glares at Steve. Steve glares back.

X, meanwhile, mostly watches Elle.

Elle doesn't seem to be paying attention to the cat drama. Though, she also doesn't seem to be paying attention to anything in particular.

But after a few minutes, she asks, "Are you thinking about something?"

[cutting_edgex23]

"It is good you are here."

X's voice is not quite as matter-of-fact as usual.

Close, as they say, but no cigar.

[ellectrical]

Elle doesn't answer.

But after a pause, she moves her free hand over in X's direction.

[cutting_edgex23]

X reaches her own hand out, in turn.

If Elle will let X tangle their fingers together --

That is what X will do.
