... reviewing any of the feeds manually. That would be true lunacy.He's doing this because he loves me. A good mother supports her son's endeavors. "I see your worried look. I agree that he's set himself an impossible task." Winifred leaned closer, her elbows resting on the counter. She lowered her voice. "But the loss of his bond with Victoria has hit him hard. It's good that he's found a distraction. He'll end the search when he's ready. Although, it would be good if he got out of the house now and then." "Indeed." Penelope nodded. "You said Felix told you to stop looking for me two years after I left. Is it okay that you're helping Teddy now? Should you avoid the topic of my disappearance?" "It's not the same search. You are found." Winifred thought it over. "Felix had lost hope that we would find you. But here you are. I could ask him if he thought Teddy's investigation was a good idea. But it seems harmless, and Felix has been very busy lately with his work. I only want to bring things to his attention when they are important." "Yes, yes. You're right, of course." Penelope nodded. "Felix has been very busy lately." She frowned and stared into space. It was difficult not talking to her husband daily. And when they did talk, the delays made communicating arduous. "Check the internal temperature," Winifred said. "Huh?" Penelope gazed at the robot, holding the tongs absently in her gloved hand. "Your chicken is likely done. Check the internal temperature." ...

He looked back to his plate, pushing food around. "Winifred, come sit with us. The table feels empty." Penelope waved Winifred over from where she was standing by the door. "Yes, Penny." Winifred sat at the table between Penelope and Theodore. She didn't fetch a place setting since she wasn't eating. "So, how was your investigation today, Teddy?" Penelope daintily ate a spoonful of peas. "I didn't find you, if that's what you're asking." Theodore shrugged without looking up. Penelope frowned. She was hoping to get more from her son. Before the breakup, she had prayed to the gods that he would calm down. Be careful what you pray for. Now he was almost a ghost of himself. "Well, I'm proud of you for trying, Teddy." She watched him closely as he shrugged again. She decided to change tack. "The Triumph for our victory on Ceres is happening tomorrow. Would you like to join me? It should be quite a show. I know you love the food at festivals. I'll buy you anything you like." She braced herself for pushback, but he didn't react. "You can take a break from your research, Teddy. I think it would be good to get out of the house. ...
