Backpacking Trip: London Below, Friday Morning

[thatsamilkshake]

There was time for either a bit of a lie-in or a hearty traditional English Breakfast (with leftover Yorkshire Puddings as well), but not both, because the trip to the location of the arriving portal was going to take a bit of effort.

[OOC: Last London Below post! Open, and the trip to the portal is open for any of our NPCs if so desired as well

The House With No Doors - Everywhere

[undersiders]

Breakfast? Sleeping in? Packing up and deciding whether you should steal the mismatched towels? Go for it.

This Is Where You Get Off

[undersiders]

A trip through mostly-empty tunnels and a climb up some rickety steps to the street, then a few more alleys after that, leads you to Down Street.

Down Street - the Door

[undersiders]

Door politely rings the bell at the door of a building whose weathered plaque reads: The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Houses, The Vestigial Commission, Down Street.

While waiting for it to open, she says, "So about Down Street. It's, er... inside the house. And...really well-named?"

[For reacting to that bit of information, should you choose, or talking amongst yourselves.]

Down Street - the Butler

[undersiders]

He's very, very proper, and very, very silent, and he leads you by candle-light to an old-fashioned lift that's just big enough to fit about half of you, so it'll take two rather claustrophobic trips to get down to the basement.

[For chatter in the lift]

Down Street - the Bridge

[undersiders]

This would probably be where Richard, if he's about, says goodbye and waits, unless he's feeling really brave today. He's not so great at heights, you see, and before you is a plank over a chasm so deep that you can't see the bottom.

Door walks carefully across and waits at the end, ready to offer encouragement if there's a problem, but crawling is an option, if your balance isn't all that great. So is telekinesis, if you happen to have it.

[Cross the bridge! Help each other out if you like.]
