DDD: Party for no discernible reason other than the White Text Guy having said so.



Whether you were invited, came of your own volition, were dragged here by some weirdos in green, or just popped up in the classic "community made you do it" fashion, you are now in THE FELT MANSION. And since Doc Scratch is and will always be an excellent host, you can count on having good food, drinks, and party games aplenty.

There isn't much he can do about the TIME SHENANIGANS, though. But you can steer clear of those if you know how. Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid the mansion's collection of A THOUSAND CLOCKS.

(Speaking of time shenanigans, you may also want to refer here for a rough explanation of what those shenanigans might be. But don't worry about it too much, really. You can just say something if you want to run into a Felt NPC and, hopefully, the shenanigans will be immensely fun for all.)

You should also feel free to START ANY NEW THREADS.

You're the Doctor, right?

[timey_wimey]

[ oh hai there, long time no see, excuse him while he finishes his mouthful ]

Yep, that's me! Well, one of, at any rate. It's Homura, isn't it?

[reloadfromsave]

Yes.

I'm glad to see you here. [ because you seem like a dude who knows how to take care of shit in a tactical manner of speaking ]

[timey_wimey]

Oh, a party organised by someone who's clearly up to no good, held in a mansion that breaks the laws of temporal physics several times over? Wouldn't miss it for the world.

What can I do for you?

[reloadfromsave]

He's going to do something, but I don't know what yet. I wanted to look around the mansion.

[timey_wimey]

[ ohohoho, now this is more like it. putting the food aside now, this is srs bsnss talk time. ]

Really now? Well, that's certainly a coincidence, 'cause so did I.

[reloadfromsave]

Good. I didn't know what to expect, so I wanted backup.

[timey_wimey]

Yep, backup's good, backup I can do. In fact, I can do better than that, because the time paradoxes in this house are making my skin crawl all over, so if we run into anything even more wibbly wobbly than it should be I should be able to give an advance warning. Well. More or less.

[reloadfromsave]

Okay. I can't sense things like that, so that will help.

[timey_wimey]

Good. In that case the only real question is, which way do we go first?

[reloadfromsave]

I'm not picky.

[timey_wimey]

[ welp fine in that case he gets to pick. setting down his plate now because who cares about food, the game, mrs hudson homura, is afoot! ]

Right then. We'll go that way. [ and then he starts walking towards one of the doors.... and barely goes four paces before he spins on the spot and goes in the opposite direction. ] Changed my mind, this way's better. Allonsy!

[reloadfromsave]

Allonsy...? [ but she follows close behind, nearly bumping into him when he changes direction ]

[timey_wimey]

Yep! It's French, means "let's go". [ oh this corridor we're just ducking into now away from the food hall is very... green. just like everything else, really. and are all these clocks really necessary? ]

[reloadfromsave]

Hold on.

[ once they're around a corner from the main party and thus out of sight, HENSHIIIIIIIIN aka this bitch is transformin because if they meet someone who needs an asskicking she is going to provide it ]

All right. I'm ready.

[timey_wimey]

[ He looks mildly impressed at that transformation, but that's only because he's never seen one happen before. He'll try and refrain from asking questions though - he knows the magical girl system on Homura's world is a sore subject, and besides, there's timey-wimey mansions to investigate! ]

Right. On we go, then. [ He pulls out his sonic screwdriver - improved somewhat from the one he had before he "died" - because it's always best to be prepared. ] How long before we run into someone, d'you reckon?

[reloadfromsave]

If there's anyone here, they'll probably be nearby. Because of the party going on. If they haven't shown up there, they might not be able to, but they could get close.

[timey_wimey]

Not accounting for time travel, of course.

[reloadfromsave]

Of course.

[ she taps the Doctor's elbow and nods her head towards a side hallway. are those footsteps? ]

[timey_wimey]

[ they certainly sound like footsteps! he looks towards the side hallway before turning back to Homura and nodding in turn. clearly this is a thing they should investigate and be ready for, just in case... so he'll just be motioning towards the wall. sneaking along to wall to peer around the corner into the hallway, y/n/pie? ]

[reloadfromsave]

[ naturally!! she follows behind him, hand on his jacket in case she has to stop time ]
