It's not even summer, why does the Invincible keep on playing Summertime Sadness?
[This is not, as the kids say, her scene.
It's frivolous and silly and thus unworthy of her time, or so she'll tell anyone who asks why she isn't participating (because there's really a line of people doing that). But the song keeps repeating in the Invincible, which makes her usual evening hobby of reading over a cup of tea rather impossible. And it's hard to ignore the eager efforts of the entire town, so instead: this. Not giving in, but at least profiting a bit from it.
An hour after Robin's post is up, a sign is hung on the front of the laboratory, where she's got the door propped open.]

I only got 10 likes in the last 5 minutes, do you think I should take it down?
[But she's curious about the prizes. Given who Robin is, given her age, she doubts it's anything spectacular, but on the other hand, it's not as if she has so very much right now. Besides: while the chances are slim, she'll be sore if some prize turns out to be a bit of scientific equipment and she hadn't bothered to try. Unlikely, but still.
So. Catch her furtively taking a selfie. She isn't very good at it, so really, it's more like "watch a young woman from 1910 try to take a selfie while grimacing". Pictures include something delicious (a meal from the Invincible, hot, edible, questionably good), something beautiful (what's more beautiful than a glass of wine, and also more convenient, because it's just sitting right there on the table too), your favorite place to be, (the Invincible, now, because it's also convenient).
She's taking this very seriously. Call her the fuck out on it, why don't you?
Anyway. Other photos are harder, and she's not above bullying people to suit her needs, so--]
Come here a moment.
[Gurl, ask instead of demand why don't you.]
But first . . . let me take a selfie
[Of course, she isn't always the star. Sometimes she's standing in the background, judging everyone else.

She keeps showing up in those. How odd.]
