First Pete, then Steve, now Myka. Claudia was still beyond excited due to Steve's arrival and Myka only added to that, even if she was trying not to be too excited and overwhelm Steve with info. He had gone from right before death and, even if he wasn't dead, that was never a fun feeling. But Myka - well, Myka had come from right after H.G. and Mrs. F's deaths. Not happy things either. Claudia wanted to squee and hug Myka, and be hyper, but she also didn't want to unsettle her more.

She hoped if the familiar face didn't help, the big bag of Twizzlers tucked under her arm would help with that. "Mykaaaa." Claudia knocked on the door, bouncing impatiently as she waited for her friend to open the door. She didn't know if anyone else would join them, but she figured to act as the welcoming wagon regardless since she had been there the longest and knew the most. "Twizzler delivery!"

She would have to find out if Myka had her Farnsworth or not, too, as well as her TESLA. If not, Claudia would add to her to-do list. She had already been hard at work to make a broadcasting device to allow the Farnsworths to work, though that was easier said than done. Farnsworths had diagrams online, due to fans' desire for such things, but there wasn't anything about the actual broadcast-allowing device outside of the fact they were supposed to work anywhere on earth. If only Artie had let her poke into it more, but Artie also couldn't have anticipated the random transport to another dimension and the need to know such things.

Myka merely took in all of Claudia's rambles. There would be no argument on her end about Alice. For so long Alice had been fictional, a fairytale that she'd read as a child. That was until Myka had her body taken over. If that hadn't been enough she'd been trapped in the mirror that had once held Alice. When it was all over she had to stop herself from taking every copy of Lew Carroll's Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and sell them. That whole experience still a figment of her worse nightmares to this day. Myka was still uncertain about the being fictional or at the most their work being fictionalized. But one must eventually accept reality.

Myka couldn't be angry or upset with Claudia for finding some comfort in the show. To have been separated from them not once but three times must have been devastating. Myka shook her head at calling Steve to have him come over. The sensory overload that she had been given was exhausting. Her body still coming down from the adrenaline of the Warehouse explosion. Seeing as Claudia, Pete, and Steve were down the hall from her meant that she could stop by and see them anytime. "You don't have to call him. You're all right down the hall and I can stop by once I'm rested" Myka said and then looked at herself. "And after I clean up."

Claudia pointed toward the bedroom doors like some sort of tourguide, a helpful (but sarcasm-included) explanation coming out. "The bathrooms are connected in the bedrooms. I don't know which is your bedroom, but I'd consider going in and getting a bubble bath... and I can give you some bubble bath and shampoo if you need it. I probably should've just done a full-on welcome basket, but - there would be the issue of getting the cellophane wrap on it without the dog getting upset that I was using the hairdryer that much. He really doesn't like it."

"They give newcomers $100 and I can be Claudia the loan shark if you need more to buy a wardrobe and stuff." Claudia also offered, a sly grin on her face. She knew Myka was upset and rightfully so, but Claudia felt a notable sense of relief that Myka wasn't losing her marbles or something and, really, that was rather big given the context that they were in another dimension.

Myka let a smile appear on her face as Claudia pointed out where everything was. She could clearly hear the sarcasm hidden beneath the explanation. In the past she might have raised her brow or said her name in a slightly scalding tone. But here it was comforting. With everything she'd been through and multiple trips to The Land of Make Believe she was still the same Claudia. Inserting humor awkward or otherwise whenever she could. Myka wasn's ure what bedroom was hers either but as she hadn't seen anyone since she'd arrived, she planned to just choose one of them. "I would never turn down a Claudia Donovan welcome basket. But for now bubble bath and shampoo would be amazing."

She knew that she needed a new wardrobe or else she would be stuck wearing what she currently was the entire time. A laugh escaped her lips when Claudia referred to herself as "Claudia the loan shark." The title was never something that she would have attributed to the junior agent. " Only until I find employment here and I will pay you back."

Claudia pointed toward the exit from the apartments' shared living area. She took on a faux tour-guide impersonation, enjoying the little opportunity to act up a little. "While not clearly indicated, given the fact it's where I knocked and came in, I do believe you recognize where the exit from the suite would be; I shall now use it to retrieve said bubble bath and shampoo."

She slid back into her own regular ol' personality when she stood and leaned to give Myka one more quick hug. "I knew you would say that, hence the loan part. Not that you're predictable but - that one thing I did mentally predict. I don't mind loaning; I know you or anyone else from the Warehouse would be good for it. I'm just - really glad you're here. And I'm off to grab bubble bath and shampoo! Be right back." And with that last bout of random hyperactive energy, Claudia went for the door.
