Cam is out flying. There's a decent cloud of atmosphere around the gold plane, now, millenia of demons making air around themselves for comfort and not sealing it up because why would you bother. There's a small forest, here - the effect is kind of ruined by the lamps it has to grow under, but it's still pretty.

"I can stake people in the grave, but if I have to personally handle it that's not efficient at all and I probably can't cover everything. I wonder if the CDC - you still have the CDC in 2008, right? - could make a dent if I told them."

"Yes, probably. Hello, CDC, I am a demon from another dimension, please listen to what I have to say about controlling the spread of vampires. Maybe I should just ignore vampires for the time being until I have more of a track record to point at.

"Preference between me making myself some form of furniture that you will then have around until you get rid of it, and me borrowing your bed?"

"Right then."
A bit of making later, and Cam is snoozing in a hammocky thing suspended from the ceiling, wings flopped over the edges and peeking out from under a fleecy blanket.

Well, that's adorable.
Sherlock makes tea. He drinks the tea. He contemplates the positive and negative aspects of the Cam situation.
Come sunrise, he wakes Cam up. Or attempts to. If saying 'wake up' won't cut it, he may have to strategize.

Cam wakes up pretty easy. "Morning. I hope you did not become suicidally bored while I was adjusting to local time."

"Happily, no. I still haven't found out how the school is going to respond to the fake summoning."
