Turlough was similarly interested to find a new door in the library. Doors were made to be opened and so he stepped inside. "Well, this should do nicely," he said out loud to himself before spotting Dawn. "Hello, settling in?"

[littlesummers]

Dawn looked over her shoulder to see who else had wandered in. "Hey Turlough," she greeted, pushing a stand of hair out of her face, unknowingly leaving a streak of charcoal behind. "I've been settling in alrighty, peachy in fact. How are you?"

[blacks_lackey]

He smiled at her. "Good news. Yes, well, I'm ok," he replied with a shrug, though that catfight, whatever it was probably meant that the Doctor wasn't, so much. "I haven't seen this place before. Looks reasonably untouched. New, do you think?"

[littlesummers]

"New to me, but that isn't really saying much," she replied glibly. "Does that happen?" she asked. "New rooms popping up on their own?"

[blacks_lackey]

Turlough shrugged. "Well, I imagine if they can move, they can appear at will. It's an awfully large hotel."

[littlesummers]

Dawn nodded, it made sense to her. "Well we certainly aren't the first people to find this place," she mentioned, gesturing to the artwork filled walls.

[blacks_lackey]

"Hmm, perhaps. Or it could be just props, to make it more real."

[littlesummers]

"Do you think the luggage in the attic are props?" she asked as she went back to her charcoaling, curious to his opinion.

[blacks_lackey]

"I'm not sure, to be honest. It really depends on the nature of the hotel. It's rather depressing, if you really think about it, that they are remains of previous tenants... even if they've all returned home." Which he doubted.

[littlesummers]

"I wont argue with you there," Dawn said with a little shrug.

"So are you working on anything?" she asked changing the subject, peering around the side of her easel.

[blacks_lackey]

"Well, let's see," he looked at the various supplies. "It's been an age since I've worked clay."

[littlesummers]

"We just finished our clay unit in art a couple weeks ago," Dawn mentioned conversationally, taking a long look at the statue in front of her returning to her drawing.

[blacks_lackey]

"Right, in school. Well, not having to go there must be a bright side," he replied.

[littlesummers]

"You'd think so right?" she replied with a put upon sigh. "That that would be one of the perks of being kidnapped by a mystical hotel. But Spike says he's not going to let me go uneducated and after a lot of muttering about American public school systems, said he's going to start tutoring me next week."

[blacks_lackey]

Turlough stared. "Right," he said. "Well, if you need an escape, by all means, I'd be perfectly willing to enable. Goodness knows I know how being trapped with studying can feel."

[littlesummers]

"Good to know," she replied with a wide grin.

"So what's your story?" she asked curiously. "Last time I saw you I was all with the 'I've been kidnapped again freak out' and didn't really find out anything about you."
