" Dr. Henry Rose? "

Peering past the group, he spotted the doctor.

Utterson hiccuped, surprised.

" I remember Catt telling me about them. I never got to speak with them like I wanted to. "

((I'm baaaack! Sorry, I didn't realise it was my turn - I haven't visited the forum for a while, and for some reason it didn't e-mail me when you tagged me.

HenryRoseQuartz As you know, *I* know the deal with Dr Rose by now - both deals! - but 1886 girl doesn't, or ever even encoutneterd such a thing before, and I'm playing it straight. Will discuss if needed, either here or Hangouts.))

"Oh... yes. Yes, I've been hearing about - Dr. Rose - from time to time," Isabella said, taking a look at the figure in pink while trying not to look as if she was staring. She looked very awkward about something. "But most of what I was hearing I didn't honestly understand. I'd have liked to speak to - to Dr. Rose - myself, now you mention it, but our paths never seemed to cross."

"Oh." Griffin said picking up his drink again and quietly sipped it. Now that he knew Millie was already being looked at by a psychiatrist or what they were he felt akward being around these people most of which he didn't care to know. He supposed he could just keep drinking and just listen to the conversation. Not that he thought he had anything better to do.

"Well," replied Lewis, "he's not always here; he comes as his schedule and inclination allow. Volunteer work, you understand--pro bono, at that. Very good of him."

"'He'. Right." Isabella gave an embarrassed laugh. "The fact is," she confessed, "from the things I'd heard from people, I'd become completely confused about whether Dr Rose was a man or a woman! And one hardly likes to ask in so many words!" She stole another glance at Dr Rose.

"Actually," she continued, "somebody or other was telling me he was some kind of a magic user? but they didn't know the details. Is that true, do any of you know?"

((Sorry for the long absence. PS Is Dr Rose wearing a dress, can anyone remember? Can't find where they arrived in this thread. Just for the implications for precisely how surprised Izzy is.

MillieGriffin, your turn.))

((I forgot to post this sketch I made! Also, MillieGriffin, I think it's actually your own turn on this - or maybe you've already noticed. Feel free to skip to Jekyll1886 if you want to though, given that Griffin probably can't answer any of the things that have just been said.

((Ah, right, so...I don't know if Dr. Rose is in costume or not--and, if so, whether the costume includes a dress. Under normal/everyday circumstances, when Dr. Rose has come in an official capacity to the Society, he's been wearing trousers. He did once show up to the Valentine's Ball in a dress, though. So I suppose it depends. I can't recall if it was ever officially said what he's wearing this particular day. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, perhaps assume trousers?))

"I fancy it depends what the fine line is between 'magic' and 'unusual ability', if that makes sense," offered Lewis. "I do know it has something to do with healing. You could always ask him, I suppose."

Millie paused to a beat to process the suggestion, still holding her hand to her head. Her brain being a lot buggier then usual made her responsive ability more sluggish. She nodded, "Y-yeah... That sounds good..." She breathed.

Catt nodded in agreement.

"If you're gonna be okay on your own Millie, I think I have an apology to go make. Sorry Millie, Dr. Rose."

Nodding to each, she turned to leave the conversation.

Moments passed, marked distinctly by the firm hand guiding her out of the crowded room through corridors, and finally, to a quiet parlor.

He didn't care whose, they could have it back later, when the iron left the air.

A wooden door shuts gently behind them. )

There, now we're all safe

@MillieGriffin

Millie remained silent as she looked around the new room. She was unfamiliar with this room but that seemed to put her somewhat at ease. There were no previous memories to taint this place in her mind, yet...

She quietly set her pie down on the coffee table but didn't sit or speak, despite the new environment she was still trying to concentrate to keep her mind from swallowing her whole. So once again she stood seemingly frozen in place.

The forest around them was silent, in the same sort of way that a game of hide and seek was silent.

Apprehension and hidden eyes pressed down like a hand poised to smother and choke.

And still, nothing moved. Nothing spoke.

Nothing spoke, except for the faint rustle of leaves and underbrush, directly off to their right.

Millie could hear their faint movements but didn't look in the noise's direction, rather charging in head first she held herself back even going as far as grabbing Mz. Hyde's arm to keep her from making that mistake. She steadily reached down and picked up a large rock, then still listening to the signs of hiddin life aimed and threw the rock in the direction of the sounds with a speed that cut through the air like a hot knife through butter. She heard it suddenly make contact with something beound the leaves.

"Yes!" She hissed under her breath.

The woods were eerily silent for a time. Nothing but a faint breeze and the rise and fall of Millie and Mz. Hyde's breaths stirred, no movement could be seen.

An explosion of foliage and feathers broke the trees, revealing a group of four Nasir in the middle of an airborne battle. They seemed to pay the two below them little mind, though two of them shared a glance and a slight nod in their direction.

The blows exchanged were all done by quarterstaff or fist. There was a snap and an enraged cry, and one of the Nasir broke off from the group, left arm dangling uselessly by their side.

The woods breathed again, eerie stillness lost. The sensation of watching, however, returned.

"Well that was eventful..." Millie commented after seeing the areal battle that just happened over them. She did feel a little bad for the Nasir that broke his arm but her mind went back to the cheater she just beamed with her rock.

"We have our pray to get first."

They pushed through the overgrowth where Millie threw the rock, there they found what they were after.

An unconscious Nasir laid sprawled on the ground, in they're open left palm was a long nerrows tube and next to the fingertips of there right hand was another dart.

"Ah!" Millie smirked at the sight of the body, "And caught red handed no less." She said as she picked took the dart and the straw out of they're hands. As she carefully examined the dart between her thumb and forefinger an idea illuminated in her mind.

"I wonder, can these pierce stone?"

Charricthran had been busy at work while the others had been occupied in the forest: Of the many, many contestants that had entered the arena, roughly a quarter of them had been taken out by their fellows,and several more had been picked off by Charricthran in the aftermath of those fights.

It was a close call in certain instances- he had been ambushed while ambushing a particularly notorious fighter by the name of Amitiel, who was known for their martial arts prowess.

The three fellows behind him were less so renown, almost clumsy by comparison. Regardless, the two or so minutes needed to finish them off drained his concentration, and had allowed Amitien to notice the disturbance and turn his ambush back on himself.

It was fortunate, then, that Amitien recognized and immediately underestimated him. He had long since shed his feathered visage, and was small and thin in comparison to the Nasir. Many of them were proud almost to the point of being arrogant- they never expected someone one to three feet shorter than, and much less muscled than them to overcome them so easily.

It was only ever the seasoned and less prideful fighters that learned that those hollow bones of theirs really could be such a nuisance sometimes.

Charricthran stepped under the fifth punch thrown at him (three dodged, one taken for the sake of pursuing this opening), then bunched himself under Amitien's center of gravity and lunged.

There was a satisfying 'SMACK' as Amitien flew into a boulder some yards away, where he could just make out the outlines of two familiar figures between the gaps in the leaves.

With Amitien out of the way, Charricthran estimated that approximately a quarter of the original fighters remained. The battle so far had lasted nineteen minutes and forty-four seconds.

A perfectly normal length battle, then. Good- it meant the crowds would be entertained without being bored.

He slipped once more into the shadows, lest Millie throw a rock at him next.

~*~

Not two seconds after Mz. Hyde pointed at the boulder than a seven foot tall Nasir went flying into it with a loud 'SMACK', refusing to rise after they stirred once with a low groan.

The forest fell silent once more, the distant roar of combat like the sound of buzzing bees.
