“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

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

“And I am going to… uh.” She pauses.

“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

“When did she suddenly take over?” I whisper. Bellamy shrugs.

“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.

dinner Bellamy decides to start investigating the Brooks family. He ends up on some 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
