[Set to just after having checked in with Bobby to alert him about Sam's arrival...]
The longer John and Bobby talked, the more and more restless Terpischore had become. It was time to get her back to her mother, back to where she clearly preferred to be rather than with her father, who was giving off such negative vibes and tension that the infant could sense it. Though she couldn't understand what was going on, she could do that and it was plain to John that she didn't like it.
He tried to tamper down the whirring of thoughts and bubbling frustration but just couldn't. Having Sam back was good, better than good, but the news about the state of things that Sam had brought with him were tearing John up inside.
The whole way to the compound, he tried to utter soothing sounds and sing little songs that normally calmed Cori down. She was having none of it, her fussiness growing the longer John tried to soothe her.
When he came into the kitchen, spying Hera arranging her fruit on a plate and Sharon not far behind her, John practically sighed with relief.
"I gotta talk to you," he said in lieu of a greeting.
