thinking about hardison's nana and the fbi. they show up, she invites them in for tea and skillfully dodges their questions. plays up the flustered old lady act and they leave with cookies but no answers.
she raised two high-level hackers, she's definitely on some kind of invented-just-for-her watchlist. they track her internet activity but she posts "how to google" on facebook and nobody's sure if it's real or not (including hardison)
Nana absolutely pretends to mix up fb and google, while probably she’s actually one of those Hidden Figures ladies who worked for NASA back in the day and has forgotten more about computers than Hardison or Breanna will ever know.
The FBI has an impressively long file on her considering she’s never actually had so much as a parking ticket. But they can’t so much as *think* about pulling her in for questioning because the last time they tried, CPS caught wind of it and went absolutely nuclear behind the scenes to keep her from being investigated because she’s 10000% the best foster parent they’ve ever seen and they’re not going to allow anyone to mess with Nana.
She absolutely makes Hardison set up her new TV when he comes back home, because “last time I pressed a button and it’s never been right since”.
Her iPad has a chess app she talks to her friends from the social club on, sudoku, videos of all the grandbabies (that Hardison helped her download), and an entire second operating system she does her actual work on.
nana is totally one of those hidden figures ladies that killed it in her time but has since hung up the metaphorical hat and settled into a life of raising next gen geniuses
I am betting her foster kids have a wide range of skills in their own rights (totally not influenced by parker or eliot)
one of them is a gymnast (they grew up watching parker scale buildings and repel from things, it was bound to happen)
one of them is a state-champion boxer (she got pointers from eliot every time he visited)
meanwhile, nana watches all her foster children gain exceedingly niche and out there skills and merely shakes her head fondly
