"My father is already long dead. Blew himself up, and my mother along with him, it was all very dramatic," Ava says flippantly, because it's better than getting emotional about it to a stranger who clearly has more immediate problems to work through. "But I'm here for weird prizes, not therapy. Just try not to take that 'kill dad' energy out on the Captain, or we'll all get destroyed by Eternity."

Ava's rather distracted as she aims her claw for one of the stuffed toys. The metal prongs close around its head and lifts the toy up a couple inches, before it slips right back out and into the pile again. Ava sighs.

"Dumb thing is rigged," she grumbles, hands one her hips as she glances down at Klaus again. She can see why he got himself stuck there. "So they're giving out a ransom note now, huh? What's it say?"
