"I really hope Brook will be ok," whispers Elizabeth to Story as they head inside. "I know she knows what she's doing, but still ..." She shakes her head, no point worrying unduly. Things to deal with here now.

"I'll stay here," says Elizabeth. "Be careful!" she says quietly to Brook, squeezing her friend's arm gently.

Sorry I'm a bit out of it at the moment, and really struggling to remember the plot etc.! :P Hopefully things will ease for me in the coming weeks. Dratted MS-like illness ... I'll be travelling a bit in mid August, but should have Internet in the hotel, and so can hopefully keep up. So long as my b...

Sorry Mr Handy for my delay in posting. Been rather out of it, and struggling somewhat to keep up with the plot! After this many games you'd think I'd be ok with that But it's an ongoing challenge. Hopefully we are moving things on a bit now.

"Why don't we give the time for the meeting as midnight?" says Elizabeth, looking at the others in the group. "I know it's late, but it will probably bring help before then. At least it's a time, and not too early hopefully? Someone else other than me should write the telegram. I can ...

"I think we need to do it anonymously, though mentioning Lord Colville would be a good idea," says Elizabeth. "And yes we should do it quickly."

"That's a good idea," says Elizabeth, "but do we have time? If they are going to attack Anna tonight we need to get back to the sanatorium now. I just can't see the War Office doing anything quickly enough, not least on our say so sadly. Or maybe we could send them a telegraph? It mig...

“I’ve found a lot about the stone in De Vermis Mysteriis, as I think you said Story,” says Elizabeth to the others. “It says that the stone was created on the Planet Yuggoth and brought to Earth by Mi-Go creatures.” She pauses, and looks at her friends before continuing. “However Ludwig Prinn thinks...

"Could you go there quickly Story?" asks Elizabeth. "Is there time to find out more before tonight?" OOC,can't remember time! "As for the Steadmans' list, I know I'm on it too. And the Captain. I can't remember beyond that ..." she sighs. "Though of course they cou...

Elizabeth grins at Brook's Bugs Bunny comment, and smiles at the memory of the cartoon rabbit she's seen in shorts at the cinema. "We can't risk more people," says Elizabeth. "We know what we're facing, but we can't put the patients and staff here deliberately at risk." She pause...

Elizabeth smiles as she sees Story looking over. “Coming!” she calls to him, feeling relieved to leave this place.

"Thank you," says Elizabeth gratefully to Eugene, as she makes her way out of the bombed building. "No, no signs of the Steadmans," says Elizabeth to Phyllis. "Just Lord Rufus ..." she says, her voice trailing off sadly.

Elizabeth recoils in horror. “I’m sorry, he’s dead, we’re too late.” She shivers in shock. “The injuries are the same as I saw on Nell Murrow. He was killed by one of those creatures. Oh god ...”

“It’s his ring, we need to check if he’s alive,” says Elizabeth. She reaches out to check the hand to see if it feels warm, or if she can detect any sign of a pulse.

"He might be trapped in there ..." says Elizabeth. "I'm going to try to look too." She heads into the wreckage, carefully.
