welcome to mayfield: day 3

[mayfield_mods]

[Those who wake up in the town on the third day will soon notice that something's definitely off. The cracks in the sky are appearing more frequently and lasting for minutes at a time, and there's a strange white fog drifting over the clouds.

For those who've just arrived, welcome to our new little town! We're sure you're glad to see your missing friends again; nothing to worry about here, they've just been too busy enjoying the upgraded carnival to go back home. Any bleeding limbs or serious wounds you may spot are obviously just a sign of how much fun they've been having.]

OOC: If your character damages or affects the carnival or town in a noticeable and normally permanent way, please comment here.

You could always return for them.

[ If only she had a tissue to spare for him. Since she doesn't, she'll just nuzzle her head into her husband's shoulder. ]

Is this about the time we come up with a plan?

[soveryhuman]

[ Oh, tissues. If only, out here. He'll let his head rest on Amy's while she's there. Comfortable is comfortable when there's a distinct lack of bed material. ]

I could do with a plan, yeah. Just kind of hard to figure out where one starts. [ ... :I ] Don't go shoe-hunting without backup, though.

[The Doctor doesn't even bother to sit up when he replies. He keeps his eyes closed and his head on Rory's shoulder.]

Here's my plan.

You two, lie low and stay in the church. As soon as the pounding in my head lets up, I'm going to go out and explore 501 again.

[the_girl_who_waited]

That plan sucks. [ Reaching around to gently nudge the Doctor's shoulder. ] Rory, tell him that's a horrible plan and that he should lie low with us.

[ A beat. ]

Or at least let us come explore with him.

[soveryhuman]

[ Rory can support this argument while he's leaning his head back against the wall, right? He thinks this is a sound course of action. ]

That's probably the worst plan you've ever come up with. [ Including last Halloween when you bit him on the hand. And he really means that. ] None of us should be going anywhere alone right now.

[godcomplexed]

I can go plenty of places!

And I've had-[He pouts as he nearly admits to worse plans. Instead he just snuggles closer to Rory, shivering.]

I'm fine. I need to keep looking for information.

[the_girl_who_waited]

[ Good Rory, best Rory.
It takes a lot to tell the Doctor his plans suck. ]

Then there's no reason we can't tag along. [ Snuggling up as well. ] We can bond over what's inside 501.

[soveryhuman]

[ King of the babysitters, it's just life. ]

Probably by running away from it. They've probably got it locked up for a reason, right?

[godcomplexed]

[And now trying to wiggle out of Rory's grip, looking indignant.]

A reason I'm going to figure out. It's our only as to what the hell is going on.

[the_girl_who_waited]

Is it locked up or are we just locked out? Either way, it sounds like a fun time.

[ Maybe she shouldn't encourage the behavior. ]

[soveryhuman]

[ You guys are the children. It's you. He won't make the Doctor stay in place, though, by all means. ]

It's not like- I'm not saying it's not one of the only leads we've got. Just. That trying to get into it alone is a bad idea. [ Plus bro, your neck. ]

[godcomplexed]

Well, I'm not letting either of you come.

[Glaring at you both and setting his jaw. ISNT HE SO INTIMIDATING]

[the_girl_who_waited]

Show of hands. [ Holding up her own instantly. ] Who's going to visit 501 after this?

[ Stubborn Amy is infinitely so. Besides, she doesn't seem thrilled with the idea of being left behind by either or both of them. ]
