@littlest-lily I had a poorer reaction to the cop’s appearance than Evie did. Cops are worse than vermin.
Bravo to Aiden for keeping his composure. Time to fabricate some interior cuffs for his pant legs. And shoes for Evie.
It’s probably too soon for Aiden and Evie to share a bath to get all that grime off.
Potential anti-climax: the flash drive only contains Dr. Little’s SW porn stash.
@littlest-lily I was waffling between “Evie gets the flash drive out unscathed and makes it back to Aiden without incident” and “Rats.”
@littlest-lily Excellent tension-building, btw. I had no idea (or, rather, too many ideas) how this chapter would end.
I suspect Evie will now permit Aiden to commit a little trespassing.
@littlest-lily The main thing I’m looking for is the determination of the cause of the fire. Both the insurance company and the cops will want to know if it has been ruled arson. Of course, official records can always be altered by sinister forces.
@littlest-lily In my experience, holding a tiny in one’s hand is no more–and no less–exciting than a prolonged hug.
Aiden, dude: Consider how desperate she is to regain her size. If you don’t want her to think you prefer her tiny, don’t find petty reasons to impede her investigation.
I can’t remember if they looked up the Fire Department’s incident report for the lab.
@SmolChlo You should learn how to pilot a drone. 
@SmolChlo Building that kind of infrastructure takes time, so unless we’ve been trying to integrate tinies for a few decades, they’re gonna literally fall through the cracks.
@Kondo Try telling a Borrower chick she can’t survive on her own. Then try to find your car keys.
