Go ahead and cling like a someone broken, everyone will surely understand.

Grace didn't fully understand what was happening, but she knew that Sam and Peter had been around to play with her yesterday morning, and now they weren't and Mommy was even sadder. So, she hadn't fussed much when Zoe put a harness on her this morning. It was better than being held all the time, for sure.

The leash was in Zoe's hand, of course. She knew it looked strange, but she dared anyone to tell her she was being crazy right now.

"I need one of those," Rory commented, holding tight to a fussing Juliet. (Juliet did, of course, take a moment out of her anxious chewing on her mother's hair to wave and say, "Hi, hi, Grace.") "I mean, especially now, but in general it's not the worst idea."

"The package said it was both comfortable and supportive," Zoe said, smiling softly when Grace waved back to Juliet. "How are you holding up?"

Once it seemed like everyone who was going to show up had arrived, Zoe stood up at the front of the room.

"I suppose we all knew that whatever was out there would reach us eventually, but I think we can all agree that this is where it will stop, and it won't be by wiping us out," she said firmly. "If you have any information that might be useful in protecting ourselves from the Auditors, or in fighting them, please speak up. I'm going to start by suggesting that people stay away from the outskirts of town - we might be shielded for now, but it's not stable." She was trying not to think about what it might be doing to Cable too. "This is also why we need to figure out some solutions, and fast."

[Anyone can speak up, so knock yourselves out!]

"I ran into a couple of them yesterday," Bo said, stepping forward. "They can zap people out of existence just by touching them; I saw it happen offscreen, as you do to one of the clerks at Jeff's, and got my ass out of there. So... no solutions, but at least I can tell you to for God's sake don't get within grabbing distance."

"I saw three of them today in a scene which is yet to be finished, so can't offer details," Karla said, standing up. "I tried to keep them back with Craft and they just...walked through it. Like it didn't exist. And when I tried to attack them directly with Craft nothing happened."

Which had escalated that little dust-up into one of the more harrowing experiences of her life, yes.

Petra raised her hand, then put it down like she'd realized that was probably silly right now and asked, "Okay, when you say 'craft' you're talking about something other than, like, crocheting, right? Because that's what comes to mind. And seems unlikely."

"They're not allergic to anything." Thank you, Lady LeJean. For all your input. "They simply don't know how to handle the stimulation."

"Excuse me?" Yes, that was so very helpful, as Zoe's glare could attest.

"They're new to these forms," Myria replied, clutching her bag close. Yes, it was filled with sweets. It was, in her opinion, the best way to murder her own kind. "Taste defies everything we've known."

Stick around and cling some more, or make plans for hiding and drinking heavily.

Well, that had been . . . interesting, and Anders felt a little justified in telling Stark to keep baking cupcakes.

He headed for the door, planning on stopping by J,GoB again to check on the cupcake-baking project, but paused to fumble in his inside jacket pocket for his cigarettes.

Where the hell had he put them?

By the time Jaina left, she still didn't have the answers she wanted. Which led to her complaining to the first person she saw on her way out.

"I'd rather just cut off their heads like everything else." Also, hello.

Anders snorted. "Messier than I like, but I'm with you on that," he agreed.

Pssh, things like formal greetings weren't a priority in times like these.

Neither was looking around for any diminutive creatures who might be lurking nearby. You know. Just saying.

The world should not be allowed to end before winter break, I am just saying.
