"Certainly, I am willing to handle the walkie whenever you wish."

[Talitha]

eat a donut

[ambic]

Yvonne wanders into For Rent

[Talitha]

Search all of the Food Stalls
Looking for nothing

[groza529]

“Well as long as we’re here...”

Search Frankenterry’s inventory and lay it is it for everyone to see

[groza529]

*lay it out

[ambic]

FrankenMage was not carrying anything, except perhaps a bottle or two from moments ago.

[Talitha]

Use crowbar, start dismantling all the food stalls
Start with Mr Wok

[ambic]

You are going to dismantle every single store, and expect to finish that in a hurry.... lol. But sure....

Talitha starts hitting away at Mr Wok.

[ambic]

Shall we say this is going to be sort of like guessing a safe combination, by starting at 0000 and then going to 0001, etc.

[Talitha]

scowls at nobody in particular

Nobody freak out, I just want to check something

turn off light switch
Scan food Stalls area for anything that might be glowing or unexpected light source

[ambic]

Having given up on Mr Wok with only a couple minutes of effort, Yvonne heads over to the lights, turns them off, and walks into the food stalls area.

Its now dark again.

[Talitha]

Sorry peeps this is taking a little while to check the whole area. I will flick the lights back on ASAP

[Ariel]

stand next to lightswitch

Just yell when you're done

[Ariel]

(

turn on when yvonne says

)

[ambic]

A flash fills the room as though someone took a photo in the dark.

[Talitha]

lights on please

Thanks Carla!

[ambic]

The lights come back on.

Everyone is accounted for.

[Primate]

Hands Camera back to yvonne angrily

"Eh. Nothing Interesting."

[Primate]

"I mean, aside from the obvious, but that will hardly come as a shock to anyone at this point, so barely qualifies."

[groza529]

Everyone is accounted for.

(I assume Lacey is still absent)?

[ambic]

Lacey and Xavier are both absent. I was referring to those who were in the room when the lights went out

[Primate]

Retracts knife on cane.

Angrily begin tapping cane on floor

"We are being

used

. The Augmentation League that never materialised, the aliens, with "Alien" as part of the name of their species. Please."

"Are we here to die, a victim of monstrosities like that?" *gestures at Frankenterry*

"Inconsistencies, justified after the fact without question. Weak memories and ridiculous concepts. A Mad scientist who doesn't want us here, seemingly, but then if he didn't organise it, who does want us here?"

"Parallell dimensions, alternate timelines. Smoke and Mirrors, literally. Are we even real? I don't know any more, honestly."

Harry sits down on a chair in the eatery. Harry looks very old and very tired.

"Now is one of those times I probably could have used a glass of wine." *looks wistfully at the central area.*

[Primate]

"If we assume all of Xavier's whole story was a lie, why did sir leo kill himself? It was a barely a distraction. He wasn't a youth snatcher, what happened, why was he trying to *commune*?. You don't kill yourself as a

bit

"

[Talitha]

I don't think Sir Leo was trying to kill himself. He used his shirt as a tourniquet, presumably so he wouldn't die. But then cut himself too deeply and passed out and the rest is history.

Sir Leo had spoken to me about a Sorcerer being amongst us. I wonder if he mistakenly thought Xavier *was* the Sorcerer?

Are you the Sorcerer, Harry?
