“Well, I want to know why I’m dreaming about her. Assuming the dreams I have are of things that are actually happening, it’s kind of like how a Seer or Oracle works. Maybe I could talk to

one and try and figure out if I can control it better or see more?” I say slowly. I’m not actually totally sure if it will help, but it’s not like I’m doing anything else, and having more answers might make the dreams less horrifying. Or more horrifying. I don’t know.

“That’s a great plan.” Megan chimes in.

“And I am going to… uh.” She pauses.

“You’re going to keep track of what we know and coordinate everything. That is what you’re good at. It’s the reason you want to go into event planning isn’t it?” I point out. She beams at

“Yeah it is. Thanks.”

“Awesome. I need to talk to an Oracle or Seer. I know exactly one Oracle so I guess I’m calling

“I’ll call the security team and have them start investigating.” Bellamy starts.

“And I will reheat all out plates because I’m pretty sure all our food is cold at this point.” Megan finishes, snatching my plate away from in front of me.

“I’ve always been the organised one, I’ve just been off my game lately for obvious reasons. You guys might be the decision makers, but I’ll always be around to pester you and help you get perspective. Now, don’t you have phone calls to make?” Bellamy grabs his phone so fast I raise an eyebrow.

video call with Alex because he can’t figure out some computer thing. Alex keeps offering to come over and fix the problem and Bellamy keeps refusing saying he can work it out and he just needs a ‘little help, I’m about two seconds away from just interrupting and begging Alex to come help, so I think that means it’s time for me to back off and let them do their thing. I head upstairs to relax and watch a movie with Megan. Once again we end up
