The Devil's Nest | Thursday Evening

Man, when did it become almost October? Buffy was bored enough to start looking for Halloween costumes on her phone, putting some thought into whether or not she'd enjoy turning into said costume just in case history repeated itself.

Would it really be that bad to be a sexy nurse for an evening? Maybe she'd learn some first aid skills.

Portalocity Office | 13 Griffin Way | Thursday

Sam liked her job. Really, she did. Manning the desk and talking to people was pleasant enough, at least when they weren't yelling, and she enjoyed the challenge of finding coordinates and arranging portals. It was relaxing.

That all went to hell when the computer system wasn't working, though, especially given that, for some reason that she couldn't bring herself to understand, corporate wasn't able to send an IT technician over for another five days - despite the fact that Portalocity created portals that allowed for travel in time.

That was how a frustrated, antsy Specialist found herself flat on her back beneath the desk, fiddling with wires to try to make the system work again. Twenty-first century technology was pretty new to her, so this would likely take some time.
