There’s something in it which is a little like a sleepover: an adventure away from home, staying up too late and getting punch-drunk with tiredness, teenagers whispering to each other in hushed voices. Not something Strange has experienced in far too long,
(perhaps not since he and his younger siblings shared a room, staying up far too late despite their parents’ protests, Stephen and Donna and Victor hissing at each other and squabbling to see who could stay up the longest)
So. Strange is still awake. He’s a restless sleeper, and certainly an insomniac, and he doesn’t even sound groggy as he answers: “Yes, Tav?”
