Lost and Found

seaoftroublesWe're skipping the trouble here (I am SO EXCITED to skip this trouble!), so this one should be a bit quicker. Basically:
1. Octavia wakes up the boys with a nightmare and they are cuddly and supportive and maybe also awkward because Haven sucks for EVERYONE
2. Jennifer heard Audrey hear that she needs to go through a door or she'll die. Duke agrees to help her try to hear more from the Barn while Nathan helps Dwight deal with a missing kids trouble (so, basically, we set up the structure of the ep here)
3. Duke, Octavia, and Lucifer all try their own methods to help Jennifer relax so she can hear what's going on in the Barn properly. Duke tries yoga/meditation. The other two are welcome to try their own methods. Canonically, it's playing quarters for beer that works, which I figure Lucifer will roll his eyes at the low-brow nature of but otherwise approve?
4. Jennifer hears that they need to find a door in Haven that they'll have to open at the same time as Audrey opens her door in the Barn, or she's screwed. She also hears fog horns. Nathan tries to butt in via phone and Duke is all "YOU ARE THE OPPOSITE OF CHILL GO AWAY". They work out that the fog horn that Jennifer is hearing must be coming into the Barn through the door in Haven, so they can triangulate the door's location from that.
5. SHOW DOWN ON THE BIG EMPTY HILL! Jennifer found the door, but no one else can see it (unless maybe Lucifer can?) until Audrey opens here door. And Jennifer can't open it. Jordan and the Guard show, and then Vince and Dave, and there's lots of yelling as Dave claims that they can't open the door without letting out a great evil (I'm SURE Luce and Octavia will have Opinions on this!). Nathan opens the door anyway, and they can see Audrey in her door past the Void fog and Audrey jumps -- AND BOOM. Splosions.
6. 'Splosion knows them all over (except maybe Lucifer? Though he would then probably see William coming through too? Unless he's blinded and/or distracted trying to rouse Duke and Octavia. . . .), and when they come to, the door is gone, but there is an Audrey shaped person in their midst! Yay! Nathan immediately hands her a gun and tells her to kill him, because Nathan's gonna Nathan, and Audrey goes "wtf, I'm not going to kill a complete stranger, who tf are you people?" DUN DUN DUN.
Ep out.

Ooh. Pretty.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-15 07:36 pm (UTC)"Like this?" she asked, when he'd resumed his feet. And flung herself forward on her hands, sending her lower body careening up and over. Duke barely avoided getting a heel to the nose as he stepped in to catch her legs.
"Alright," he said, at a loss. "Yeah, that was good. That was great. Maybe . . . slower next time."
Jennifer harrumphed, but dropped her legs back to the ground.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-15 07:42 pm (UTC)She was going to go back to focusing on her Warrior poses for a moment, here. (And definitely had not snorted Jennifer just flinging herself into it, just now.)
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-16 04:54 pm (UTC)Jennifer dropped her arms and shrugged. "Okay. You're the boss!"
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-16 06:12 pm (UTC)But she was yet to come up with a better suggestion. So... She would keep watching them, out of the corner of her eye, as she transitioned towards Warrior III. (A shitty Warrior III, but still.)
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-19 04:47 am (UTC)Jennifer sighed in relief and flopped her legs out into a straddle. "Okay!"
Duke nodded. "Right."
This was going to go terribly.

Date: 2022-03-20 09:25 am (UTC)And then focused back on her split task of fixing her pose and watching the other two. (Watching the way Jennifer sat. Like a kid.)
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-21 07:45 pm (UTC)Duke hadn't noticed any fog horns, but he shrugged it off. He spent his life on the water. He'd probably just blocked them out.
"Ignore them," he advised. "Close your eyes and clear your mind. Picture an empty bowl."
Jennifer closed her eyes, huffing through her nose. Duke watched her for a moment, then shook his head a little.
Yeah, he didn't have a lot of confidence in this method yet, either.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-22 10:36 am (UTC)Her gaze flicked from Jennifer's closed eyes to Duke's, though. Like she wanted to ask what he thought about how this was going.
But that little head shake of his said a lot.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-22 03:57 pm (UTC)"We could . . . try a mantra," Duke said. "But let's just focus on our breathing first."
"Right, right." Jennifer nodded, brow scrunched in concentration. Then let out a little "oooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" under her breath.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-24 03:20 pm (UTC)She really wondered if this was working. Her little flow of poses wasn't relaxing her, anyway.
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-24 03:41 pm (UTC)"Dammit, Nathan," he muttered. He dug it out and answered. "Hey man! We're totally making headway."
Jennifer slumped as he hopped up and started pacing while he talked Nathan down from deciding to come over and harass Jennifer into hearing things. She looked over at Octavia. "I am so not zen. Do you have any ideas?"
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-24 04:11 pm (UTC)No offence.
"And it seems to be the only thing I'm coming up with."
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-24 04:19 pm (UTC)Yeah, she was definitely not the sparring sort.
"There has to be something between sitting still and handstands or hitting people."
Re: Relaxation montage! - Duke!
Date: 2022-03-24 05:27 pm (UTC)So Octavia just shrugged again. "Maybe Lucifer will have a better idea."
