The C.I.C, Friday Afternoon-Evening
Well... this week had definitely been an interesting one. Not better than last week, but interesting for sure. And now it was seven days since the last time she'd been in to do the apparently-Vette-had-a-job-now thing, so in she came again, giving a nod and a shiny coin from her pocket to the raven before settling in at the counter, herself.
She considered trying to pick apart the last of Kaidan's phones-for-parts and see if she could throw together something fun with them, but... nah. Instead she was just going to settle in behind the counter and try to acquaint herself with more of the games that were installed on the computer there.
It was a bit of a randomized crapshoot, since it was impossible to be sure what any of those games were about just by looking at an icon on the screen, even if she did take the tiem to translate the words in the title. But after a few swings-and-misses, she settled on a cute game about evolving a little single-celled organism up into sentient life. Which was great until she encountered, for the first and likely not the last time, an inability to change something in-game without a scroll wheel.
... But she hated the mouse. If she wanted to play a game using a brick, she'd just round up a posse and go on a window-smashing spree or something.
So, that was Vette's day, then. Scrounging around for enough parts to find some kind of scroll-wheel workaround that didn't involve gaming with a lump in her hand all the time. The raven was even helping. Sort of. It grabbed any shiny bits out of her discard pile and flew off to hide them somewhere in the shop, which was possibly almost the same thing, anyway.
[OOC: Open! Yes, I realize the easy workaround is to keep using the touchpad and to have a mouse availabile just for the scroll wheel don't @ me.]
