IC Scene 6a - Back in the Library; Calum and Pearl

An old house is shrouded in dark rumours and fearful whispers. Its past residents have all had grisly experiences in there, and the few which are able to speak of it will not. Now, pulled in by the promise of money, several investigators try to find the house's dark secret.

Calum:

Calum regarded Pearl's simulated attempted seduction with thinly veiled horror, and attempted to concentrate on his meal for a while before piping up.

"Well, Dan, as the team centurion, I admire your desire to get into the ring. I must, however, agree with Fritz here that starting at night half prepared is not a good idea. I vote we have a good night's rest, continue our enquiries in the morning and see where that takes us."

"We can't be too prepared really. What if our enquiries eventually were to reveal that this whole thing is caused by noxious vapours coming through the sewerage pipes?"

"Having said that, if you want to head out to the lunatic asylum tonight, I'm happy to come."

Guys are easy, unless they don't like feminine curves that is. They only focus on what they want to see. Wide eyed, innocent and slightly lacking in brains will generally get most men running. Women I'll leave to you to distract.

Dan Marrison

Dan rolled his eyes and shrugged, "It's probably just a case of overactive imagination anyway. But we'll leave it to majority rule." Looking to Pearl, Dan asked "Do you want to wait until the morning to start the house stakeout or go there tonight?"

"Well I think the morning will be soon enough, but that we may get better results if we go there tonight, so go there now gets my vote."

Dan Marrison

"Huh... a tie. I hadn't figured on that," he chuckled. Math wasn't one of his stronger suits. "Maybe flip a coin?"

Hint: Maybe wait and see where the information from the Macarios takes you?

Karl Werner

Karl slurps down the last of his coffee and stubs out his cigarette on the saucer. He heaves himself up on his feet.

"Well, let's go see these lunatics of yours, Marrison, before it gets any later. Then we can decide when to go to the house."

He shrugs into his coat and holds Pearl's fur jacket for her.

"Will you ride with me, Miss Wealstone? We can follow your car, Marrison. Do you know the way to this nuthouse?"
"Two in the head, you know he's dead." <heh>

Dan Marrison

For one so educated, Dan was somewhat amused at Karl's resorting to call the mentally insane by such degrading names. Dan wasn't one to be above such crudity, but he was a muscle-head after all. What private dick thinks about proper etiquette? It just seemed out of place on Karl. He guessed the parapsychologists weren't cut from the same cloth as other men of medicine and education. "My maniacs," he chuckled. "Yeah, I know how to get there. I guess I should know where I keep my property, huh?" He got up and headed out of the diner, leaving some bills on the table to cover the meal. He was going to offer that they should all take the same vehicle so they could discuss their findings in the car afterwards, but being close to Keith didn't sit so well with Dan. Better to take the two cars and leave a comfortable buffer for the time being. "Calum, want to ride with me?"

Calum:

Having polished off some apple pie and a cup of joe, Calum pulled out his pipe and puffed away happily.

"Excellent, a midnight trip to the asylum! I'd be most happy to ride with you, thankyou Dan."
