[Once again, Sam's addressing her fellow Haveners through an open broadcast; this time, from her own apartment. She's sitting on the couch, rolling a glass back and forth between her hands.]

Okay, so! The clock's rolling over in just five more minutes, so I need to know: who's at home and awake? If you're a friend of ours and not awake, I'll apologize now because we might be waking you up in the next couple of hours. Depends on your door.

[Sam reaches out of frame to grab her carry-all by its straps and hold it up. It isn't overfull, but it certainly isn't empty, either.]

...D'you maybe want to hit some houses with us, or maybe return the favour when we get back from the rounds? Tall dark-haired dude---someone fitting that description is supposed to bring the best luck of all. A strange woman is supposed to be the worst.

Should I come find you, or the other way around? [Nope not gonna explain cause now he realizes explaining means telling how he knows what mecha shiva is and his 'responsible' cred would be kinda spoiled by the whole thing.]

You got a preference?

You two probably'd get to me faster than vice-versa. [He's not exactly fleet of foot here, let's be real.]

We'll try to get there in good time. Might have a detour or two en route, but we'll book it.
