Laurence merely nods, more than a little startled himself.

Not wanting to be the spoiler but Nicholas pointed out, "Of course it was the two that were the worst injured by the carriage that happened to just noticed these little people."

Pet sighs. "Don't worry, Laurence. Not the first time I've had that reaction." She follows the doctor into his office.

"Well I'd find it very hard to believe in such things," says Samantha, "but I trust Laurence's perceptions."

Paul had started noticing the hushing and whispering 'Sir, what going on?' he says to Laurence

"Miss Walters and I both saw a couple of...little people duck behind the receptionist's desk," Laurence whispers back to Paul.

Paul stands up and tries to move towards the place Laurence is indicating with ease taking a better look. This must be some silly joke he thinks to himself craning his neck.

When Paul starts stepping to get a better look, the receptionist looks up. "Is there something I can help you with?"
Paul,Paul does see something fleeting, skitter right underneath the desk. He didn't get a very good look at what, but he did see streaks of green and white.

The receptionist didn't think much of Paul's antics, and went back to typing what she was working on.

Nicholas sighed and shook his head, he got up and stood in front of the receptionist's desk. "Two of my friends saw your little people run back here and my friend here in a very unsubtle way was trying to confirm that by getting a peek. Considering we're in your town trying to investigate things of the nature in which they saw, can we just see the two that ran back there? There's no denying it. Personally it was probably two kids. Little humans are small and fit the description of faeries or whatnot. We were at the old man's house...." Nicholas started to snap his fingers trying to recall the name, "George I believe. Then we were walking and got splattered by a ghost carriage and now little people."

Nicholas walked to the chair where his bag was at and more importantly the four photos he borrowed and laid the photos on the desk in a fan spread. "Like I said, we're investigators."

The receptionist looked at Nicholas with an eyebrow raised, then over to the others and said, "Perhaps your friend here should go next. He appears to have sustained some serious head injury."

"Madness." Nicholas grabbed the pictures and went outside. He dug in his bag and pulled out a cigarette pack. Yeah he knew he told Samantha he quit, tried really hard to as well but it was dealing with the mentally challenged and liars that set him off. This whole thing was a wild goose chase and getting absolutely no help from these people only made things worse.

As Nicholas left, the receptionist rolled her eyes saying, "Exactly what I was thinking."

Laurence plants his face in his palm at Nicholas's lack of subtlety.
OOC,I thought we decided we were going to the woods afterwards. I don't think that's changed.

ooc,I didn't think so either, just making sure.
The doctor tried, but was unable to do anything about Pet's injuries. He sent her back out and said, "Look honey, I think some bed rest would do you good. Here's some aspirin for the pain, but try to keep pressure off your right knee."
ooc,As Lawrence already did first aid successfully on the wound, the doctor could not try again. Sorry, so Pet is still at 5 HP.
Lawrence went next. With a combination of first aid and medicine, the doctor sent Lawrence back out feeling good as new.

Finally, Paul went in. The doctor couldn't find evidence of the pain Paul felt, but gave him some medicine, which took away the pain.

At the conclusion of the visit, the receptionist gave directions to the constables, "Just in case you decide to make a report after all."

'I rather go on whit the hike as a ghost carriage wont do as a good story for the police' 'small people hiding and seemingly following us from George house' 'this is getting to strange' 'maybe we find some conclusive eidence in the forest'

Laurence thanks the doctor for his excellent work.

"Agreed," says Laurence quietly when he rejoins the others. "If we try to tell that to the police, they may send for the folks in the white coats with the butterfly nets. I think we should stick to our original plan and visit the woods, looking for that student."

"I agree," says Samantha, keeping her voice low. "I'm having enough trouble making sense of all these things myself. Goodness only knows what the police would say, and I don't think they'd take it seriously."

Pet sighs, and thanks the doctor for his efforts anyway, then limps back to the others. "So...the woods again then?"
