...Well, I guess we'd better find out.

[Steve stays braced against the door, getting a feel for how often the monsters through themselves against it, how long the gaps are in between. And—God, it's like people have said, his head aches and he starts to feel nauseous; that chair better work because he can't keep this up. Once he's got the timing down, he waits for a gap before pulling back from the door and kicking at the chair to make sure the legs are good and properly wedged, and then he holds his breath. The monsters pummel the door—again, and again, and again—and the door shudders, but it holds. The chair stays firmly where it is. He lets out a long breath of relief.]

I think it'll hold. I think we're good.

[Steve drops his packs, taking quick stock of the room; there's a window, and he moves swiftly over to it, making sure it's latched and un-openable. There's another door; he goes swiftly over to it—a small bathroom. No other exits. He lets out another long breath.]

OK. I think we're safe here. If they start coming through that door somehow, we go right out the window, all right?

[Well, Quark will go out the window. It's a bit of a squeeze for Steve, and if the monsters break through he doubts he'll have the time. But Quark doesn't need to know that.]

[Quark offers Steve a solemn nod. Still, he can't keep his eyes off of the door. He finds a place against the opposite wall to get comfortable and slides down, pulling his bags close to his legs.]

This is going to be a really long night, isn't it?
