Well.

Gray has managed to arrive at the Cooper place, and after parking his stolen Dodge Viper beside the white Mini Cooper (ahaha the narration just got that), takes the scenic route back around to the front of the house.

He likes walking.

Jona has vague periphery experience of doubles. She just hasn't realised on quite what scale the farm is being invaded by Gabes and Grays and Sylars.

She peers as she passes him on her way to the kitchen. (She's not actually technically headed for the kitchen at this moment, but no matter where she goes she always seems to end up there. The once-wraithlike girl is filling out nicely.)

With open curiosity: "You're not the one with the sea monster, are you?"

[letyousaveme]

"...no?"

What the hell?

[jonadarkhair]

"...I guess it's more of a lake monster, isn't it?" admits Jona. Though sea monster, in her humble opinion, sounds far more impressive.

[letyousaveme]

"What," he asks patiently, "are you talking about?"

[jonadarkhair]

"The monster."

Point.

"In the lake," she adds helpfully.

[letyousaveme]

"...so I'd gathered."

[jonadarkhair]

"Apparently it's supposed to eat people, but there are a couple of guys who feed it instead. And one of them's one of you."

And thus, the conversation comes full circle.

[letyousaveme]

"Ah."

(Ish, explain this.)

[ungoldenlock]

(Well, basically, it seems that when you're dealing with an infinite number of universes, it is inevitable that in some cases doubles of people will occur. Ish has one herself; she's nice, if a little gaudy. Gray has several, though they're not as cute as him. The krakenling is merely a fringe detail.)

[letyousaveme]

Hmm.

"Thank you," he says.

Out loud, but not entirely to Jona.

[jonadarkhair]

Jona glees. She helped!

(Ish acts similarly, but with far more poise and dignity, she promises.)

"Any time." :D!

[letyousaveme]

A quiet nod, and the ghost of a smile.

[jonadarkhair]

"Are you new, then?"

Jona will force you to make conversation against your very will!

[letyousaveme]

"Yes."

[jonadarkhair]

"Where'd you come from?"

An open question deserving of a multiple-syllable answer, y/n?

[letyousaveme]

He nods indicatively back along the road.

N, apparently.
