"Oh yeah, that would be convenient!"

It thinks for a moment.

"…Your choice again, I think?"

Mae doesn't know this music library nearly as well as Sable, and it's still a bit scared of accidentally asking for something that doesn't exist yet.

She pulls the CD binder into her lap and starts flipping through it, a soft look on her face. "You worried about picking something I don't like, or something like that? I promise, you can try anything in this binder and I'll like it, and if you don't you can switch to another CD and that won't bother me either. I won't mind if we try ten different discs on the way from here to the store."

Flip flip goes the CD binder, what is she going to pick out?

Dammit, it's been read like a book! She's not totally right, but also yes she absolutely is.

Mae sighs and nods. "…Something like that. Here, let me take a look…"

And it begins peering over Sable's shoulder to see if there's anything it would like.

Wow, so the first thing that jumps out to it is that a lot of these are burned, rather than store-bought.

It grins. Its new mother might be a bit of a pirate~

A few CDs jump out at it towards the beginning.

"Ooh, you have Against Me?"

It grabs out "Searching for a Former Clarity" and puts it into the CD player, removing the previous CD and placing it back into the binder.

"Oho? My cute little foster-daughter likes punk? Fun!"

And they can enjoy that all the way to the departnent store.

Sable is curious who introduced a nine-year-old to punk music, but she's not too concerned. She's always figured it's better to prioritize being someone the kids can come to with questions than to control what they're exposed to.

It doesn't actually think it knows very many punk bands, but it supposes it does like the genre.

It wiggles and taps its feet to the music all the way to the store.

Soon enough they arrive, Sable finds a parking spot, and she takes Mae's hand to lead the way inside.
