Advent Drabble 12 - Blackout
The lights go out in the middle of a joint interview segment.
Eames says, “What the hell.”
Luisa calls from the hallway, “Power’s out!”
It’s pitch-black in the house. Kalinda pulls her cell phone out and turns it into a flashlight.
Arthur remarks, “Oh, no. Our house is very dangerous in the dark.”
“Why do you say that?” asks Eames.
In the hallway, Luisa swears loudly.
“Oh,” says Arthur drily, “no reason, just the massive amounts of construction we live in at all times.”
“Hmm,” says Eames. “Good point. Everyone! Freeze until the power comes back on!”
“Pragmatic,” says Arthur.
