[not too long after receiving the picture on his CAT, said device turns on, broadcasting everything, just as the Doctor reaches the northernmost door. he pauses for a moment, reading the sign.]

Wait until I'm called? [he makes a face that says "Not on your life," and barges in--but stops short when he spots the four townspeople waiting by the fireplace] Ohhh, and the entertainment's here already! I'd wondered if I'd see you lot again--well, no, not really. Not two of you, anyway.

Well! It's been fun, but I've got things to do: worlds to see, planets to save--and you lot have kept me here for far too long already.

[he stalks across the vast room until he reaches the door, but frowns when he can't turn the doorknob. a little noise of frustration escapes his lips while he pulls out his sonic screwdriver, the instrument whirring for a moment before he sighs and puts it away] Deadlocked... That would figure.

[he runs a hand through his hair as he walks away from the doors. by now he's noticed his CAT is on] Looks like we can't go in to visit our wonderful mayor. Would anyone care to join me here with the rest of our friends? Certainly won't be a dull time, that's for sure...

[ooc: All right, here's the discussion post everyone! Feel free to use this space to talk to one another or the Doctor (so yes, threadhopping is allowed), share what you've learned, and if you want to chat with a mod NPC (Verita, Ms Osculia, Audrey, and Sheriff Iussus), please put their name in the subject line of a comment and we mods will come and tag you!]

[Xion's missing out on the last half of the transmission because the sight of one person immediately snags her attention and drags her mind into it's one-track state. She all but runs through the house and bursts into the room, and it takes a skidding halt and a good bit of flailing in order to keep herself from falling over and colliding straight into the person she was so eager to see.]

Verita!

Whoa! Hey there, Xion! [grins] How are you?

I'm -- I'm okay -- Are you -- ? You're okay?

Yep! Except I can't share much news when I'm stuck here with everybody else. [pouts]

[steps into the room, looking about suspiciously] They do like to make things seem luxurious...

[but when she spots the other person in the room--she might be a bit glad to see him, actually. not that she would admit it] Doctor! Is that door locked as well?

[sighs heavily as he heads over to her] Unfortunately, it is. Just like the front door and that door there before it was so kindly unlocked for us. [really, it's such a slight to his ego when he can't unlock a door]

[puts a hand on her shoulder once he reaches her, dropping his voice so only she can hear him] Have you been all right?

[stiffens. really, why must he do that?] Yes, of course. Has something happened?

[steps into the room, surveying it curiously. she smiles when she spots the Doctor, amused that he's the first to have arrived. really, it's no surprise]

[but she does wonder where the others are... after the conversation she and Fuu had with Miss Osculia, she has a feeling there's a lot for them to discuss]

[yes, yes he must] No, well, not yet, anyway. You were with Brax, weren't you?

Yes. [softly] We spoke to Verita.

And you?

[... ;A;

Here, Verita. Have a Replica latch on to you in a hug. SHE WAS SO WORRIED.]

Oh! I'm okay, really! [but she hugs her back] You sure you're okay?

Yeah. I just... I was worried.

Well, you don't have to worry anymore! The vivacious Verita has returned!

[... Xion's still not letting go.] Good.

[she's not really sure how to handle this] You...could smile?

[... slkhgkdgha] I -- O-Of course.

[smiles back] There! Now everything's fine again.

[Her smile turns more genuine at that.] Yeah. I'm... I'm glad you're okay.

Yeah, Brax told me about that. [including what he saw in Verita's mind...]

I was with Xion, actually. Went to go meet Audrey.

[When Fuu comes to the room she glances about and gives a blink of surprise to see the four residents there. She gives them all a polite bow, but leans in close to Miss Verita. She speaks softly, with sincere concern.]

I'm so glad to see that you are all right, Miss Verita. And I wanted to say, thank you, and I'm very sorry for what happened to you because of us-- because of me.

[Fuu tries nonchalantly hovering not far from the Doctor, waiting for a chance to speak to him privately. (Well, in this room, everywhere is 'not far'.) However it's pretty clear from her glances that she is anxious to share with him her concerns brought from the conversation with Miss Osculia...]

[Trying to make herself as comfortable as possible in the extravagant room, Fuu is sitting on one of the plush couches, flipping through her journal and intermittently making notes. She occasionally gives the locked door a strange look. It's not a comfortable thought that the Mayor and Resarci are very likely on the other side. But all she can hear from the door is music.]

[She eagerly looks up when anyone enters the room, hoping to gain more news about what has happened to everyone else since coming to the mansion. She is also very willing to warn people about what she has learned.]

Me too! I didn't think Daddy would let anything like that happen. [frowns]

But I'm glad you're okay, too. We're a team, after all!

[frowns] You don't have to apologize! I was only doing what I wanted to.

Are you all right?
