[Lucy is making fried chicken when she turns the video on with sticky, flour covered fingers. She dredges a piece of chicken through egg wash and then rolls it in flour before dropping it in the deep fryer.]

I'm contemplating one of those trash chutes. You know the kind you put in the wall and it goes straight down to a big dumpster? I never want to see a trash bin again.

Mae, Stephen, are you guys okay?

[totallyinaband]

Yeah, I'm good. What's up, Luce?

[mightbeconcussed]

Just wanted to make sure you hadn't been vaporized or anything.

[totallyinaband]

Yeah, I hid and locked the door.

[mightbeconcussed]

Good. Neil's okay, right?

[valentineluke]

I take it the shop survived intact for the most part.

[mightbeconcussed]

I'm pretty sure they vaporized a carton of bubble bath but for the most part, yeah, it's all okay.

You survived all right?

[valentineluke]

I did. They never ventured outside of the City.

[mightbeconcussed]

Who would have thought the Underground was the safe place to go.

I'm so, so, so glad to see you in one piece, Lucy.

[mightbeconcussed]

Penny! Me too. Only with you. And me. Glad to be in one piece. Did you hide somewhere while they were here?

[anunluckypenny]

No, I totally understood. [somewhat unhappily] Yeah, I hid. That's about all I'm good for in an invasion.

At least no one died trying to save you. [it's fairly clear from her voice, she can't say the same.]

Fried chicken. I decided comfort food was in order.

[majorcrotchgrab]

... Need someone to share with?

[mightbeconcussed]

I'm not really feeling the company thing today but if you want some, I'll put it in some Tupperware and you can pick it up.

[There's a pause before Haji turns on the video feature. But she was a friend of a friend and he should check on her even though she appears unharmed.]

You appear unharmed.

[He never pretended to big on small talk.]

[mightbeconcussed]

Yeah, I was lucky. You too?

video;

[whithersoevergo]

Yes. [He gives a slight nod and his head tilts a bit.] They were very strange creatures. Like fighting miniature tanks.

[intheblanks]

The kind people escape through in action comedy movies?

[mightbeconcussed]

And inevitably get stuck in. Yup. That kind. I'm glad you made it through okay, Robert.

You are okay...right? No zombie!Doc in the house?

[intheblanks]

I'm fine. You have to look into neurosurgery for the undercover zombies.

Did you make it though okay?

[captainfuckingmagic]

Me and Perry, we almost used one of those once for a body. They're a lot smaller than you tend to think. What're you cooking there?

[HI I'M NOT DEAD BUT I FORGOT IT HAPPENED SO I'M BEING LIKE THIS.]

[mightbeconcussed]

Harry! Oh God, Harry. Fried chicken. Come have some.

[So she can bowl you over with tiny blonde hugs and try to make up for the fact that you friggin' died for her.]

[captainfuckingmagic]

Okay! That was kind of... I'll be there! I'm starving.

[Time lapse? Knock knock.]
