Thursday was in the dining room with a cup of coffee, a croissant and a copy of one of the local Virginia newspapers.

Steve limped into the dining room. "Er. Hello. I hope I'm in the right house..." You could never tell with SHIELD. "The key worked, anyway."

"If you're the Mr Rogers I was told was taking the basement, then you're in the right house. If you're not, well, I might have to shoot you and that would be rather unpleasant for a quiet Saturday morning." She stopped Friday from spilling his entire bowl of cereal into his lap.

Steve smiled. Oh, good. Right house. "Yes, that's me. But please, call me Steve. Cute kid."

"Cute, but hand-eye coordination challenged." She stood up and offered a hand. "I'm Thursday Next and this is my son, Friday."
