Duke Crocker of the Cape Rouge calling Haven P.D. Anyone out there? [He’s got only small hope that anyone will answer, almost certain that Audrey and Nathan won’t. But still, he’d come through the last time the network glitched (before he showed up on the Barge), as had she. Maybe it could happen again with them, or anyone he was familiar with from back home.

He pauses for a long time, mulling over what he’s about to share, and suddenly blurts it out.
] Oprah Winfrey.

[Gym Spam, evening]
[After the last of the messages had trickled in, Duke had shaken himself off and tried to calm himself walking Brownie, fixing himself a very heavy chicken salad for supper, and tried to do some yoga poses. None of the activities had provided him any peace, and he eventually decided to just embrace the discomfort and beat the crap out of something.

So here he is, standing in the gym with knuckles bound in tape and taking out his frustrations on a punching bag. He’s more than competent in street-fighting, not exceptional but still practiced and forceful. He doesn’t even remember his first fistfight, although he’s sure he lost it, and that drives him on.

Isn't an 'opra' a sort of vegetable?

[Allison needs some time in the gym herself, but it's not empty when she quietly arrives that evening.

Today is a Bad Day, and she doesn't feel like running. So, she's going to work until she can't stand up, and pray she doesn't break something in the process.

When Duke is spotted, it helps, oddly enough. Seeing Duke is comforting, and makes her feel oddly safe in a world that feels turned on its side. It makes her smile, and want to cry, but instead of either one, she walks over and wordlessly catches the heavy bag he's beating up on, leaning over just enough that her head is visible as she holds the bag a little steadier to take his blows.]


My turn when you're done?

Oprah, huh. [ He smiles with maybe a third of his mouth. ] Must be serious.

[ ...what, he was never one for a dramatic entrance. ]

Seriously? Out of anyone in any time or dimension? Oprah Winfrey's who you want? Not that I have anything against her but dude you could have wished for Johnny Cash. Or Elvis. You coulda had the King.

Let me guess. Code word.

[Hi, Duke, Chris is watching you critically for a moment. Or several. He doesn't use code words when he's selling, he's got much better ways of ensuring discretion, so you're absolutely not a client.]

How did you get this number?
