At six months old, Dizzy was well past the napping all the time stage, and busy finding out about the world it lived in. The team were already well aware that Fluffs were interested in everything, curiosity was probably encoded in their genes; they lived to learn, and the Hub certainly held plenty of opportunities for learning.

 
Most of the time there’d be someone around who wasn’t too busy to explain whatever had caught the Flufflet’s interest, but there were inevitably days when everyone was tied up.
 

“Hummm?” Dizzy said, peering between the railings of the autopsy bay.

 
Owen glanced up briefly. “Sorry, kiddo, Daddy’s up to his elbows here.” It was true, he was mid-autopsy, arms deep in a Weevil, trying to determine cause of death. “Go find Nosy, or your Mum.” Dizzy didn’t move, just continued goggling at Owen, which was getting a bit unsettling; he could practically feel those big, purple eyes watching his every move. “Go on now,” he repeated. “Buzz off, I’ll play with you later.”

 
The furry head withdrew, and then…
 

“BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.” The sound receded rapidly.
 

Biting his lip to keep from laughing, Owen shook his head. Fluffs could be adorably literal at times.
