 Sam leans back and thinks things through aloud; he murmurs, “Something came into my house and put spying equipment. Someone is watching Gladys and me to get to you.” William says nothing – and then the totem manifests behind Sam! William struggles to keep his face blank, as Sam remains oblivious – until the totem reaches down to pat him on the head. Sam freezes in horror and whispers, “It’s right behind me, isn’t it?” William nods but says firmly, “It was just leaving.” The totem takes the hint and glides through the wall – and Sam catches it in the corner of his eye. He whips his head to the wall, but William sighs and says, “It’s gone. That was the friend, though, and she just cleared your house.” Sam shudders, but declares, “Brandy.” William replies, “I don’t think that’s it’s name – oh,” as Sam heads for the liquor cabinet. Sam leans back and thinks things through aloud; he murmurs, “Something came into my house and put spying equipment.

-By 8 o’clock, the X-Krewe is navigating the Underworld, heading for the hallway to collect the rent. [[wod:hunter:pcs:anita|Anita]], [[wod:characters:Abby]], [[wod:geist:pcs:isobel|Isobel]], [[wod:geist:pcs:peter|Peter]], and [[wod:geist:pcs:david|David]] are all wearing somber clothing to avoid unnecessary attention, and Anita has not mentioned Templeton’s visit. As they pick their way cautiously down the section of the Underworld that resembles crumbling tenements, the deathly silence is shattered as Anita’s cell phone rings! She grabs it instinctively and answers; [[wod:characters:polly|Polly]]’s voice comes through with a bit of static. Polly tells Anita of [[wod:hunter:pcs:Josh]]’s video and sends a screen cap to see if Anita recognizes the spider-beast. Polly adds, //“Sorry, but I wanted to catch you before you went below.”// Anita replies, “We already are.” There’s a moment of silence, and then Polly mutters, //“Great.”// +By 8 o’clock, the X-Krewe is navigating the Underworld, heading for the hallway to collect the rent.

 Polly hangs up but Anita gets the screen cap without issue. Although it’s fuzzy, Anita is pretty sure it’s the same creature that attacked her shop in February. She texts back an affirmative, and then puts her phone away. David demands, “How the hell is your phone working down here?” Anita admits, “I don’t know,” but Abby retorts, “You just answered your own question.” It takes David a second, but then he shakes his head and asks, “So, wait. I get that you deal with angels and demons, but it really didn’t hit me until just now. Are you saying the Bible’s actually real?” Anita shrugs helplessly, but Abby replies, “Not necessarily. Veltis refers to some Biblical stories, but I suspect he’s just using a common frame of reference to try and explain something we simply can’t grasp. Try describing dying and making your Bargain to someone who’s never gone through it. I actually feel sympathy for Veltis.” Polly hangs up but Anita gets the screen cap without issue.
