Nikki Hawkins has posed:
Why does everything with Nikki involve computers? Likely because it's pretty much her whole life. However, she's been a little more secretive with some of her time on her computer. Hiding windows when Tim is beginning to walk into the room. But she's also been poking a little bit more around the home. And today, she's staring at the fish tank. Staring. Like she's fascinated by all the fish that are swimming around. Watching. Studying.

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake walks up behind her and says "What ya looking at?" He asks as he puts his arms around here. Tim is curious about her computer things and maybe could find out but he figures she needs her space, and her computer is one of those spaces. He has been making some plans himself.

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
"Your fish." Nikki says simply. "Trying to determine the saline content of the water so I can tell if they're fresh fish or salt water fish. Algae levels prove that the environment is kept fairly clean - or perhaps you have an algae eater inside the tank." Even as she talks almost like a robot, she does lean back into him since his arms are around her. It's the little bits here and there that help her feel human. Or at the very least - Normal.

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake nods, and will go through telling her what the fish are. They are different salt water ones, "I thought about doing a brackish tank, but I think that would work out more for a pond or something, the fish would be bigger there.

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
"You are a hard man to shop for, Tim Drake. I feel like any gift I would give you just pales in comparison to all the things you already have..." Nikki confesses this and then smiles, turning her head to kiss his cheek. "So I thought maybe a fish. Like a special fish. A rare one perhaps.... cause she wants him to know he's special to her."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake looks to her and says "Anything you get for me, would be special for me hon." It is not the item itself but the thought for it."

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
Nikki sighs a little. "Well, okay...just...you've been so sweet to me. Course...even if you got me little paper flowers and made a handmade card that'd be enough." She smiles then. "As long as we have each other, yes?" However. "Still might add to the fish world...."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake nods his head to this and says "Well considering your here as much as you are, I think you would be adding to our fish world." He grins at her, and says "Also, I was thinking about making one of the rooms for the robots."

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
"For the robots? Like... one of the rooms here a place where we work on robots or...?" Cause the way it was worded has Nikki a little confused to be honest. Though she smiles. "I mean, it sounds like a good plan...maybe..."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake smiles and says "Well, I was thinking a room where we can work on them, but also a room where squishy could stay sorta like his own room, like you would with a kid.

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
"A personal room for Squishy?" Nikki blinks a bit and then smiles big. "I like that idea..." Then she wiggles a bit so she can turn around and look at him. "...You know...Nikki -has- been staying here a lot...and being here makes a lot of things easier..."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake nods his head and says "So, your saying you would move in with me?" He smiles a bit at her, and says "I am good with it, if you want to keep your place but staying here, I understand.

Nikki Hawkins has posed:
Nikki blinks and then she smiles. "Really? You don't mind me moving in? I may not keep the house...I don't see the point aside from having property in New York. I suppose I could rent it out..." Still, she beams. "This just became the best day ever..."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake grins and kisses her, and holds her close "Well I think this is a good night, we should do something special."
