don't you worry about the atmosphere

Angel's on his way downstairs from the rooms. Only he stops about halfway, tilting his head to one side. Something... sounds off, odd as it may be to say that. There's also something about that girl with the guitar...
It doesn't actually hit him until he's nearly to the couches.
you realized it all along, something in our story wrong...Oh, no.

"Is it me or is there somethin'...weird....going on?" Collins looks suitably confused, but not afflicted.

[the_antiangst]

There's a certain amount of unspoken-but-quite-obvious relief at that fact that Collins isn't having any musical issues.
"There's something weird going on. I think it's the goddamn sentient music again."

".........great. Baby, if I start actin' anything like the ones afflicted, hit me with something." Beat. Softer, "And get away so I don't give it to you."

When in doubt, contingency plans?

"I don't think it can really get a hold on me, since it didn't manage to grab me back in Milliways." And he's holding on to that thought, in light of the way the inn works.
"But trying to knock some sense into you I can do."

There may be a Sue walking over with baby Mallory in her arms.
She's just come from speaking with Ivy. It did not go well, which is why the cool expression that normally prevents anyone from reading her emotions is gone.

She looks troubled, which means... really, that there's a storm raging beneath her surface.

Sue glances at Angel. "Since when did you start filming?" Not Angel too. Not everyone suddenly having miraculous skills they don't normally have.

"I didn't. This is... just in case, sort of."
He hasn't seen Mark yet to know whether it's necessary, but that's rather beside the point.

Sue lets out a sigh of relief.

And then raises an eyebrow, setting Mallory down on a chair.

"In case of what?"

She hestitates. "Something's happening in the Inn, again. Something... not good."

"And if the extra background noise is anything to go by, I can tell you exactly what it is, but not how to get it out of here - still working on that part. But it sounds a hell of a lot like something that happened in the last pandimensional space that nearly killed Mark. And didn't let him film a damn thing for two weeks, hence the camera."
