Guess who has no window, and hasn't left his room (apartment, apparently, what the hell) today, and therefore has no idea of the mansion's new position between Planet X and a meteor shower? THIS GUY

Quick! Think up a name so he feels loved.
You're not allowed to call him Egg forever.

Egbert?
[ No, that was literally the first thing that came into his head. You can point and laugh now. He would if he EVER CRACKED A SMILE. ]

No Alex. You're gonna give him self esteem issues.

[ The lid's off the incubator, and he's got his hand juuuust next to the egg, ready to pull bits of shell away if needed. He thinks that's what you do to hatch a crocodile. Right? ]

Except Rogues'.
How's it coming? *He can't quite see the egg from his angle.*

He doesn't even know who Rogue is, and, not for the first time, he can't help but wonder how many eggs Bhamba managed to pawn off on people. ]
It's...
[ He gently picks it up for Tim's perusal, just as hairline cracks begin to make concentric circles at its end. Abruptly: ]
I see it!

I'll give you guys some time to bond.
*He's not even being sarcastic. His little croc is actually pretty damn cool.*

...By all rights he should be getting his hate on for the crocodile, but come on. It's still alive after playing possum for however stupidly long. You've got to respect that. ]
Did you have to help yours get out much?

It's cool though, he took some deep breaths.
He sends a video feed through to Tim, the light of his bedroom on, and an itty-bitty very-much-alive crocodile chilling on the palm of his hand. ]
It's not dead.
[ He sounds mildly surprised, and even pleased. God, if he's not careful he might actually be in danger of looking happy for once. Apparently no-one can resist the charm of the resurrecting baby crocodile. ]

Sweet! Aww he's so tiny! Check it out, a taste of things to come.
*He turns the comm to show Vector basking on a patch of sunshine on his bed with his mouth open. He's tripled in size and from snout to tail is about 8 inches long.*
Thought up a name yet?

Alex looks impressed. Also, uh... ]
...You let him run around loose?
[ And you may be shocked by this, but he has actually managed to come up with something. Mostly thanks to that stint he had as a little kid. The fact that it was mansion fuckery aside, that was not a bad time.
Hopefully this isn't a completely stupid name. ]
I was thinking, uh. Mosa?
As in Mosasaurs. They were like crocodile fish dinosaurs. Well, not really dinosaurs.
[ ...Alex, you're trying too hard again. ]

Hey, that's not bad!
*He's so proud of you. Look at them social skills you're developing.*
