"Orchard House, right!" Mira echoes, beaming. She couldn't remember off hand, it's so new relatively speaking, but she'd remembered liking the name and now she remembers why. Literary references get extra points with her. "I like that. Feels...cozy. I loved Little Women when I was younger, always liked Jo the best." She looks down at the books. "Not like that's too obvious, or anything. Anyway I'll have to stop by. I'm a sucker for," she waves her hand. "Baked goods. I like to pretend to bake? But I suspect you might not have to."

She smiles as she follows Raleigh in. "Thanks, you don't have to go out of your way, or anything..." She's instinctively embarrassed by having hospitality showered on her, the same way she instinctively forces it on the people she invites over. She's aware of the habit but it's a hard one to break.

"I don't mind at all." Mira smiles. "I work at the planetarium, I do some of the tours and star shows and I'm going to start working with the schools on field trips. And, I do their social media, but that's not technically my job. They pay me for that part by letting me help out the researchers. Which when I say it out loud, doesn't sound that great...um. I enjoy it."
