Who: Blair and Fiona
When: Mid/late morning
Where: MacCutcheon house

Fiona had been woken at five AM that morning when Bruce was getting ready to leave. He was going away for a couple days on a business trip, and he'd woken her to go make his breakfast and to temporarily alter the rules of their marital contract. Fiona had been ever the dutiful wife, keeping mostly quiet until he'd left. Usually, she lived for the times when Bruce was away. Those days were the best days. But her sister was still here. Blair had been right, Bruce had allowed her to stay - even if Fiona knew he'd been rather pissed off over the situation. She had paid for that a little, but she'd taken it as well as she could. Now he was gone, and she was hoping desperately that Blair would allow her to enjoy it. Really, she kind of doubted it.

Rather than go back to bed like she normally would have, Fiona dressed and headed to a local 24-hour grocery store. She proceeded about town with some of her weekly errands, and it was nearly noon when she returned home. She came in to the kitchen through the side door connected to the garage, arms heavily laden with shopping bags. "Blair?" she called. "Are you here?"

( 'A-positive, human, hunter. Not that the last one was a scent, exactly.' )

Who: Sam and Jo.
Where: Summer's house.
When: Early afternoon.

It was fascinating the way the water struck the window and formed into little rivers, the individual beads coming together in the middle to form small streams that streaked downward to pool on the windowsill before slipping over the edge and out of sight. Sam had lost track of just how much time he'd spent standing here watching them, leaning lightly against the kitchen counter not far from the sink overlooking the garden. Just watching the rain. It had been pouring down all day and he'd spent a good half an hour before leaving his room doing this very same thing, just watching it strike the glass and slip away from sight, losing all force as it trickled down the side of the house and to the ground below to soak into the soil. It was watering the various plants in the yard now, he'd realised, the grass too, and beyond the rear of the back garden the trees were being thoroughly soaked. They wouldn't mind though, they would enjoy it. Plants like rain a lot more than animals did.

They also weren't scared by storms. The first rumble of thunder had made Sam think of a wolf's growl and he'd tensed and looked all around him for the source of the threatening sound. The first real crack had almost sent him scrambling underneath the nearest bit of furniture. If it hadn't been for Mrs. Summers' reassurance that it was just a storm, totally harmless, he might have hidden himself away somewhere and stayed there. As it was when the lightning began to flash he'd needed a second round of reassurance. Mrs. Summers had made him a sandwich he had yet to eat in order to help put him at ease, reminding him all the while that it was just weather, perfectly natural, just two fronts coming together in the sky to make all that light and sound.

Sam still tensed whenever the thunder clapped, he still shied away a little when the lightning flashed, but for the most part he was too captivated by the rain and its movement down the kitchen window to really take much notice of it anymore.
