Disclaimer: I do not own nor do I claim to own any characters or concepts related to ReBoot. This is a nonprofit work of fanfiction.
For the month of November, I undertook a self-imposed drabblefest (in lieu of another futile stab at NaNoWriMo), with those drabbles pertaining to ReBoot collected under the title of Byte-sized. This one, though, goes here, as it follows Small wonders and I didn't see the use in shelving it with the other drabbles when it best fits elsewhere.
This follows Small wonders by the ReBoot equivalent of a few months.

"She gets it from her father," AndrAIa added.
"Me?" Matrix scoffed. Epson grabbed at his fingers; she gnawed on his thumb. "She gets it from you."
"Strange. I seem to recall a certain young sprite with a nose for trouble."
"Yeah? Who?"
"Oh," said AndrAIa, "just some guy I know."
