I have questions about the space robots. You know the ones? From the Star Wars? Or I think they are from the Star Wars. I suppose it's possible this little guy is from something else. Space robots are a common thing, I've gathered.

Is it normal for a space robot to be a thief and a squatter? I've found one hanging around the shed down at the Pit and he appears to be a little thief. I don't know how he'd be able to drag this much stuff in here on his own. Though, I suppose the little white and blue robot in the movie was capable of a lot, too. So maybe I should give this one some more credit.

Is anyone missing any paintings? They certainly aren't his. Unless he's a painter, too. Do space robots paint?

I think I'm going to invite him inside.

	Good, because if you brought that thing home, the kids would never want him to leave. What are you doing? Running over a list of names and seeing if she likes them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't say I'd blame them. I see the appeal of a droid. Pretty much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They like Pancham, but they're kids. They want everything. What have you gone through? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That's true.

I've been typing varying words into the meaning section of a baby name site.

SNOW/CHARLIE

Do you know who we need to get in touch with at the base for housing?

I'm not sure he approves of the name Pouchy though.

What words?

CHARLIE:

I have no idea who the contact would be. Romanoff and Carter are the ones who have been updating the most about it so likely them? If nothing else, they could direct you somewhere else.

No, I'm not sure either. I don't think the kids went with my naming approach.

Mostly water based ones. I got desperate and looked for things with 'blue' at one point.

SNOW:

I figured Natasha was going to be the best bet. I'll recommend her.

[...]

This droids owner is the one who pushed all this stuff into the shed. She said her place disappeared.

Why don't you just say random names instead? Maybe she doesn't want to be called something obvious?

CHARLIE:

Does she need a place to stay? We don't have anymore bedrooms, but our giant ass couch ought to be more comfortable.

Maybe. I was never very good at naming things. I'll give it a go during lunch and see what she thinks.

SNOW:

I'll find out. She said she's at an airbnb right now but...we'll see.

You're going to end up with a Dratini with the name Martini. Marty for short.

CHARLIE:

That's expensive for no reason.

I know the military can put her up in a generic apartment.

Or Shaken not stirred. Go with the naming logic the muggles have by using phrases.

SNOW:

It sounded it. I've not had to use one of those but she's throwing money away for sure.

I'll remind her of that.

Call her Marty this instant. Tell me what she does.

CHARLIE:

They're hotels in people's homes. Usually cheaper than hotels, but not always as clean.

And if she's still not interested, let her know about the couch. It's not much but it's something.

	[...] Have the kids been calling her Marty when I wasn't around or something? SNOW: Ah. Sounds a bit like a hostel. I will. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No, I just want to see what she does.

CHARLIE:

You don't usually share.

	Should I film it? SNOW: I can share. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm not opposed.

CHARLIE:

I was talking about the hostel vs airbnb.

	I'll prop the phone up against one of Bill's staplers. SNOW: Oh, with the airbnb? Yeah I guess that would make sense. Just share with the owners. (Reply to this) (Parent)
