1.

Can anybody tell me what this is? I got it from the scavenger hunt that was awhile ago...but I forgot about it because of the ferry crashing.

[Attached is a picture of an SD card! Presumably, someone will be able to identify it for her before too long and explain how she can put it into her tablet, and I don't want to make two separate posts for this, so, a bit later, Mary's back on the network again!]

2.

Oh! It's a map! I won a map for my pictures!

[She's not uploading the picture of her map. It's her map.]

Does anybody want to come on an adventure with me? Maybe we'll find a treasure!

[withsadness]

I'll let you know when we're ready to go...and we can meet up by the bonfire!

[They might want some torches.]

[justcawse]

I'll be waiting then. Let me know whenever you're ready.

[That might be good. It's at least an easy place to find, even with being so new here.]

un: hello

[lunchbreaks]

Oh, where does the map lead?

un: eleven

[savingthrows]

Hi Mary. I can come if you'd like.

Also, I have candy left. We can share.

[ Treasure sure sounds nice, and as per Aziraphale's instructions, she did save some trick or treat candy to share with others. ]

[survivaltricks]

[with vague amusement]

Want me to show you? It's almost like magic.

[TECHNOLOGICAL MAGIC]

[withsadness]

Show me show me show me show me!

[That's a YES. MAGIC!!!]

[withsadness]

Um...maybe soon! Not right now but in a couple days? When the new people are more comfortable!

[And maybe when Riku is less missing. Because she's still upset about that. And also Robin said something important? She doesn't want to crowd!]

We can all meet up at the bonfire!

[withsadness]

Um...

[She takes a moment to look at it again.]

Into the forest! Somewhere that's a mystery!

[withsadness]

I'd like both of those things! We can hold hands and walk together!

[Because? They're going to be? Best friends???]

[withsadness]

Yes, please! I want to know as much as I can. That way, nobody will worry about me so much.

[I mean, they'll still worry. She's nine years old. It makes her feel more confident, though, regardless of anyone around her.]

I'll be a great leader!

[lunchbreaks]

Oh, the forest. Well, we'd better all go as a group then. It's quite dangerous in there.

[withsadness]

Everybody? That might be dangerous, too...that's a lot of people!

[originallutece]

You certainly have the correct attitude.

[She nods, one hand at her back, nudging her into heading back into the laboratory.]

Let's see it, shall we?

[survivaltricks]

[(fake) MAGIC!!!]

[also he's entertained]

All right. But before I do that, you'll have to give me something in return.

[???]

[savingthrows]

That sounds nice. When do... you want to go, Mary?

[ Mary is sweet, and Eleven has taking a liking to her.

Besides, by going on the adventure together, she can protect the younger girl and become friends and help find treasure.

Win, win, win situation. ]

[lunchbreaks]

Well, maybe not everyone, but you definitely shouldn't go alone, Mary!

un: mollymauk

[mollymocked]

Oh thank god, a map. Maybe we can find somewhere not so bloody dark. Well done, darling.

[withsadness]

Thank you!

[She's so happy that she did something that will benefit everyone--it's exciting!]

Do you wanna come with us to see where it goes?

[withsadness]

Soon! Maybe in a couple of days? We can all meet up by the bonfire!

[Whenever expeditions are back open again, the quest can Begin!]

[withsadness]

I won't! I wouldn't want to go by myself, anyway.

[It's scary to go out there by yourself...]

Because I don't like the dark.

[withsadness]

[?!]

Like what?

[She's trying to think of what she has. Some candies? Art supplies...?]

[withsadness]

Okay!

[Mary would skip her way back in, but it's been a long month full of more sustained injuries than she cares to admit. So she takes a bit more caution in her steps, but that hardly means she doesn't seem enthused. Once they're inside, she pulls out her tablet and finds the map that downloaded from her SD card. It appears to lead to a completely unexplored area...exciting.]

[survivaltricks]

[it isn't anything tangible. or even anything that would require her to go out of her way. rather--]

. . . I need to know where you are so I can do a proper demonstration.

[CAN'T HELP OVER AUDIO]

[withsadness]

Oh!

[That's easy.]

I'm in my room, 310 at the Invincible! You can't miss it because it has handprints on the door.

audio -> action

[survivaltricks]

Got it. I'll be right there.

[he isn't too far off. room 203 is just one floor down, so. . .]

[a few minutes later, Mary will get a knock on her door]
