Thank you to skyspireskit3 for your very sweet (and very much appreciated!) comments.
And now for a time skip! This is set after Runs in the family by the ReBoot universe's equivalent of three years or so. Like Runs in the family, it was written for November Drabblefest.
Little helper
Epson looked up at the sound of his footsteps. "I'm helping!" she said in greeting.
Matrix took in what looked to be the contents of all AndrAIa's toolkits scattered across the garage floor. "I can tell."
Buried in her bike, AndrAIa called: "Sweetie, can you find me an app wrench?"
"Um," said Epson. She frowned.
Matrix swept his boot through the mess. "There," he said.
Epson pounced. "I found it!" she shouted.
"Thank you, sweetie," said AndrAIa. Sly, she looked Matrix over. "Did Daddy help?"
"A little," said Epson. "Not really."
AndrAIa tsked. "What a mean Daddy."
"That's me," said Matrix.
