[Good evening, Ruby City. It seems one of your captors is out and about.
Or in and about. Because behind him is the interior of the haunted house so many have found themselves plagued by. The second floor, with its closed bedroom doors--he's leaning against the hallway walls. He seems rather unaffected by its creepy atmosphere, even offering a disarming sort of grin--]
Charming old place, isn't it? Could use a bit of a fix-up but it won't be here forever. Shame, that. It's somewhat fascinating. [The furniture is antique, the decorations rustic, and then there's that treasure trove in the attic. Gene's somewhat curious about it all. There's an odd feeling it brings about in him. One may call it nostalgia. Or déjà vu.
But from behind him--]
Theo. Theo. Theo.
Not now, can't you see I'm busy? [Gene waves the specters off with an air of annoyance. Seems even he isn't immune to the effects of this place, though he is considerably less affected. The name continues, chanted again and again and again.] Honestly. Like listening to a broken record.
Theo. Why, Theo? [With a slightly annoyed huff, the feed clicks off.]
