Nia’s making an excited noise before she’s even got the package in hand. Blurting out, genuinely surprised and almost embarrassed, “Thank you!” And then, with feeling, “Octoprincess, you shouldn’t have.” This card is getting hung up behind the crabitat forever.

She holds one of the shells up, inspecting it with care, and then looks at Ursula with wide eyes and a huge grin. “Baby clothes,” Nia stage whispers, humming with glee. She jumps up and pulls Ursula into a hug, reiterating her thanks to the best crabmom anyone could ask for.

Ursula's taken aback a moment by Nia's unrestrained exuberance; hugging is really more of an alcohol-added activity for her, but she recovers quickly enough and returns the embrace with a smile. "Glad you like them, darling. We need to figure out what we're doing with the little critters over the summer." She's grown fond of the strange shelled creatures and two months feels like a long time to be parted from them.

"Of course, honey! Joint custody!" Nia chirps enthusiastically. Then a pause as a thought occurs to her: "Do you think hermit crabs can be safely sidealonged?" Nia asks with a thoughtful furrow of her brow. "Maybe we should ask Kurt."
