( Teasing, she gets her hands under the box and slides it forward, closer to Lavi. It's pretty much a cube, and clearly fashioned from a box not meant to be that size. The ingenuity of necessity as a design. )
It's not much, but I had some free time when Gilbert was out of the kitchen, and I wanted to try again since last month, so...
