What a wonderful awakening. In the style of George Lass, this was thought with pure sarcasm and a shit-eating grin while she walked, hands in her coat pockets, from the thrift store to the gas station. She'd gone to pick up a scarf, a beanie hat and some ear-muffs to add to her recently put together outfit, also courtesy of the Doctor. Well, the coat, anyway. It was cold as hell, and her sneakers were letting the snow in now. She'd need new socks soon.

For now, she was just hungry and thirsty, mildly feeling like she had a hangover without the drinking, and she needed some food as soon as possible. Hence why she had just walked into the convenience store, briefly noticing that the guys who usually stood outside weren't there - maybe even they couldn't face the cold morning, or maybe they just weren't morning people.

Non-perishable food meant not much choice at all, so George picked a bagel, an individual chocolate pudding and a cereal bar; then, some Mountain Dew-like generic thing she hoped wouldn't taste like shit. It would have to do. Rather than going back outside and walking all the way to the theater before eating, George set her stuff on the counter and then jumped up to sit on top of it. Not like the clerks would mind, after all.

In an effort to keep his head down, the way Logan had said, once the sirens had stopped sounding, Sid decided that the petrol station was as good a place as any to stay. He hadn't seen anyone else, really - other than Anders - there, so he figured it must be one of the places not already inhabited. It wasn't like Sid knew a whole lot of people in this place and, so, not wanting to step on toes, he didn't think he should bother trying to find another place to sleep.

Sleeping on top of the counter hadn't really worked out so well, because he'd woken up in the middle of the night after rolling over and landing heavily on the floor with a thud, knocking the wind out of himself. It was colder, he realized, than it had been when he'd fallen asleep, so he decided maybe if he slept under the counter, it'd block out some of the draft.

The counter creaked and rained saw dust and dust bunnies on his face, waking him again much later. "Nngg..." he mumbled, reaching up to wipe his face before pulling his glasses out of his jacket and putting them back on. The sun was out. He was still here. All right, not a lucid dream and not a trip. "Bollocks..."

	George had already picked up her cereal bar, and was unwrapping it while Sid spoke. Before she answered, however, she finished swallowing and took a long sip of her Mountain Dew knockoff. "Maybe he's right. I don't know who that is, but yeah." She looked around, wondering whether she should get another pudding or not. "I'm George." (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Bollocks indeed. Though George was more of a waffles girl, she could understand the pancake love. Sighing, she realized she missed good non-canned food, too. "Manhattan's pretty huge." She said, in agreement. He must love her very much to go from Britain to Manhattan to look for her, and risk sleeping on street and whatever else. She smiled. (Reply to this) (Parent)
