[Today, network, you are getting a view of Molly's apartment. More specifically, the floor of Molly's apartment, where a circle of power has been drawn with chalk. In that circle, there are -- well, there were three tribbles. There's a few more, now. Anyway, the tribbles are happily meandering around the circle; Molly is not too far off, staring hard at the circle and obviously concentrating, murmuring things under he breath.

After a few moments, the tribbles are moving rather slower, almost sleepily -- and, more importantly, they aren't reproducing. There's a hint of frost on the walls of the circle. Molly blinks, then grins and turns to the camera.]

Well. There's one way of solving our tribble problem. I could try and do a really big one if anyone wants, but I'm not sure how long it takes for them to, uh, thaw out.

[ Leave it to Harry!

She nods. ]

I can assist with a large one. I would be reluctant to attempt it by myself, but if we work together I am confident it will be manageable.

And I am fine, thank you for asking. I am occupying myself sufficiently by working with Mister Banner. How are you?

[ She's not chatty by any means, but it's fairly close to it for her. ]

Should be, yeah. I'll tell Jim then, he'll be happy. [And she gets to impress Captain Kirk, so that's pretty cool, too.]

I'm good. Better than I was. I can't say I'm working with anyone as impressive as you, but I'm at the magic shop. [a beat.]

And I met Captain Kirk, so that's...seriously awesome.

[ Well? Guess he's getting his magic anyway. ]

I told him I would help if it was necessary, so he should not be surprised to know that I am assisting you.

It is good that you're doing better. And I would not say he is "seriously awesome" but he is nice. [ And then, maybe a tiny bit of girlish happiness creeps into her voice. ] He bought me ice cream.

Oh, well, good.

[There's a bit of a grin.] Yeah, well, I kind of ...grew up watching his show with my dad, so -- I'm a little biased. I didn't even know they had ice cream here, so good job on that one.

I know of the show, though I haven't watched it myself. I do know that there are many people who are a fan of it and of him. And yes, they have ice cream. It tastes like ice cream.

[ For all that she is the Archive, Ivy is still 14 years old and perfectly able to say dumb things like "ice cream tastes like ice cream." ]

You should, if we ever get back home! It's pretty cheesy, but it's good. [A beat.]

And do the snozzberries taste like snozberries, too?

I will consider doing so. [ But really, she already knows a lot about it. The scripts, the reviews, all the people talking on the internet about it... ]

Yes they do, Mister Wonka. [ You can't slip a literary reference past her! ]

Good. We'll turn you into a Trekkie someday.

Excellent. [Yay, Ivy, thank you for indulging her weirdness.]

I have no doubt you will put your best effort into it.

[ Doesn't mean it's going to happen though. ]

Of course I will. Do, or do not, there is no try. ....Which is the wrong series, I know, but still.

I think you broke a rule there.

[ Seriously, even Ivy knows not to mix Star Wars and Star Trek. ]

Yeah, yeah, whatever.
