Tried to make it a good one, at least. Not really sure what would have been at a "Family Holo" anyway.

More holos like the Parent Trap? Coffee canister, coffee canister...

Think I found it!

I don't even remember what I was thinking...it was an odd time.

[Since she was a bit sick when she was finishing her projects. Trying to get out to the parking lot halfway quick...]

Should have some glyphs drawn on it. Open it up?

[There's string, feathers, and some simple beads inside.]

I should probably learn to read these...

[ there's the sound of her opening the canister, and the beads rattling around. ]

Feathers and beads?

I...thought I'd put them in your hair.

The braid? You're going to do it?

I'd like to. If you're interested.

Yes, absolutely! I'd love to!

I should be over there in a minute. You probably have time.

[Since she was expecting a Parent Trap!]

I'll see you when you get here!

[ she sounds so excited, better hurry Aloy ]

I'll be quick.

[Give her a little time, she'll be trotting on over, lifting a hand as she approaches.]

[ she's practically bouncing on her heels, coffee canister in hand as she waves back ]

[Finishing trotting up.]

This will be about as good as a family holo, right?

It'll be even better. I'm really happy you didn't forget.

Have I been forgetting something else?

No, but there's always so much going on.

[She gestures, inviting her away from the parking lot and going to sit in grass.]

Well - sure. But you just have to ask. Like Kotallo asking me to go help with his arm.

[ its time to relax in the sun and try not to sweat to death ]

I - don't want to be too much of a bother. You're already teaching me a bunch of things.

And I'm sure I'm not the best teacher. We can just try.

[Starting to arrange hair, careful of Beta's flowers.]

[ is it too spoiled if she just closes her eyes to enjoy the sun on her face and someone's hands in her hair-- ]

You're in luck, because the only comparison I have is a computer program.

Not sure if that's better or worse for me. At least I'm not pushing you toward anything?

You win every time.

[ she's not biased ]

You aren't pushing me toward anything that wouldn't be better for me. I need life skills.

[She starts to braid.]

You do have skills. I'm not going to handle recapturing HEPHAESTUS by myself.

Maybe, but what if you get hurt and someone needs to get you food? I should be able to do it. So I'll learn.

It's going to take a while. Right now, don't be afraid to ask Leon. Or to just walk over to Denny's.
