Irina had found the Gremlins to be a mixed blessing.  On the one hand, they did seem to genuinely care for her.  On the other, they were as bad as the AI at times.  She sometimes wondered if it would just be easier to get a robotic housekeeper, not that she thought she could get the gremlins out at this point if they didn't want to leave.<br/><br/>The arrival of Tigsy brought a sigh to Irina's lips.  She had hoped to slip out without them noticing.  Not that she had ever managed to accomplish that.  They seemed to have an almost supernatural sense for what went on within the condo.<br/><br/><strong>"Tigsy." </strong>Irina said by way of acknowledgement to the gremlin, pointedly ignoring the bulge she could see beneath his coveralls.  She did not want to think of them that way, given that they'd seen her naked numerous times.<strong>"I have work."</strong>She explained, before sighing yet again.  Their tearful expressions always got to her.  They seemed to know just how to influence her emotions.<strong>"Fine, fine."</strong>She relented, ignoring the way his hand ran up her long athletic leg to cup the full swell of her ass.  The armour she wore, even the double layers, was surprisingly thin.  It hugged every curve and swell, revealing nearly as much as if she was naked.<br/><br/>The hood and mask of her armour lay around her neck as she took a seat on the finely crafted wooden chair that sat in her dining room.  The meal was quite impressive, she had to give them credit for that.  Far better than anything she could coax out of the AI.<br/><br/><strong>"Thanks."</strong>She said, before tucking into the food.  She was quite hungry, excitement tended to make her forget to eat.<strong>"What do you have planned for the day?"</strong>She asked, more because she didn't want to eat in silence than out of any real curiousity.
