[Miriam smiles a little for the camera, though she's tired and it doesn't have the same warmth that you might expect. She's hanging out in her new digs, one of the spire rooms. There are pillows everywhere and soft blankets and a large Rottweiler with his head in her lap.]

Uh, hey people. I was here before and then I wasn't, and now I'm here again. Weird, right?

Anyway, I just wanted to let people know that this dude is Barnaby. [She tilts the camera toward Barnaby. He grunts.] And he's my dude. So don't shoot him or you'll be really sorry. He won't be nice if you try anything.

[She smiles again.]

So, any of you with freaky voodoo powers? 'cause I could use some of that right 'bout now.

Who wouldn't get excited 'bout such a handsome boy?

[Seriously. Miriam fluffs Barnaby's ears up. He sighs but puts up with it.]

Hey, Doc. I'm Miriam. I don't remember you. But it seems like there's a lot of new people now.

[Oh nooooo so fluffy oh NOOO]

I've only been here, uh, a couple months. Well, uhm, maybe it's c-closer to... 7, now? I think it was October here.

[She wasn't very present for those first couple months, anyway. Lots of hiding in the apartment.]

It, uh, t-took a long time for me to get settled.

[Miriam shrugs. She doesn't think about numbers much and it doesn't matter, not really. They're here now.]

Figures. This place is pretty weird. Probably the weirdest I've ever been stuck in and I've been in the shit. Barnaby too. But he's all right. He's cool with Hadriel.

[Barnaby snorts.]

There's lotsa stuff for him to eat here!

Yeah, uh, I g-guess dogs aren't as picky about food.

[The dogs she knew sure weren't.]

As long as, uhm, you can be happy here, I guess. Which uh, is p-probably greatly improved having someone so close by your side.
