So. This was a hell of a facility. A zen garden, a home theater, a state-of-the-art kitchen, and now Annie was pressing a button on a treadmill to slow it down, since Sloane -- the pretty one that Luther obviously had noticed from the very minute he saw her -- had graciously offered to let them finish their jog in the gym.

Part of Annie was genuinely really impressed by the whole joint. A larger part of Annie was, unfortunately, reminded of Seven Tower, which was also a pretty dope place to hang out and work and live, but that also ultimately kind of didn't mean a whole lot.

At least Sloane seemed like she was genuinely nice. Annie was a terrible judge of character, sure, but she wasn't picking up anything but honest kindness off of Sloane. (And like -- maybe something reciprocal towards Luther? Possibly just wishful thinking, but Annie was maybe kind of getting a vibe.)

"I have to admit, you guys have some pretty sweet digs," she observed as she stepped off her treadmill earlier than she would have liked, thanks to a return of that slightly-sweaty queasiness from earlier. God, what was wrong with her?

Everything involving all of this was weird, because that was just par for the course with this family, but this time around there was a lot of weirdness that was seemingly designed to make Annie uncomfortable. She got that having Stan dropped in his lap wasn't Diego's fault, and thankfully Fandom had prepared her pretty thoroughly for the idea that they lived different, separate lives in other universes, but....

But it still wasn't easy to have your husband tell you that this adolescent child was his, with a woman who was already so aggressive and confident as to make Annie vaguely uncomfortable with her.

So anyway. Annie was also lucky that it was pretty hard to miss her second-favorite Hargreeves when he was up and moving around, and when she ran into Luther on his way out for a morning run, she'd hardly hesitated before asking if she could tag along -- even if she was actually feeling a little queasy this morning. (Whatever. Probably just all the time travel and -- weirdness.)

"Does it look normal around here to you?" she asked as they made their way towards a park, Annie lengthening her stride a little more than she would normally to keep up with Luther. "Like, out here, too?"

She hadn't spent all that much time in the Unnamed City. Especially not during the daytime.
