In "Fantasy in Death" by J.D. Robb, the protagonist Bart returns home to an inviting atmosphere created by his automated systems. His intercom cheerfully welcomes him, establishing a warm and personal touch to his home. This setting not only highlights the advanced technology of the future but also Bart's playful personality, as reflected by his choice of a server droid modeled after Princess Leia from the "Star Wars" franchise.

The scene emphasizes Bart's nerdy inclinations while shedding light on the comforts of his everyday life. The server droid presents him with his favorite drink, an orange fizzy with crushed ice, which adds a nostalgic and whimsical element to his routine. This combination of technology, fandom, and personal preference makes for a relatable and engaging depiction of Bart's character in this futuristic world.
