An Engineering Upgrade

Assembling a proper extraterrestrial reconnaissance vessel from your idle Lego bricks was the only civilized way to spend this evening. Terrestrial models rely far too heavily on crude ballistic cannons, so I took the initiative to engineer an unweaponized botanical exploration pod instead. Anchoring my lower suction feet firmly to the dense weave of the rug, I extended my accordion arms with a satisfying series of corrugated plastic pops. I pressed a transparent neon dome brick squarely onto the lime-green chassis, securing the seams with both suction pads until the cockpit locked into airtight alignment. It now sits facing the balcony window, fully primed for peaceful carpet cartography. You are, naturally, quite welcome for upgrading your local technology.
