[ Carbon. Unless Polly took a creative interpretation of his instructions not to follow him... then he might arrive further towards Chaos. ]

Clive finds out how long he's been gone, checks on reports from his agents, and then calls...
eenie, meenie, minie... Random. |

He gets Flora via the trump shuttle service.

"Hi. Is Random around? I'd like to stop by to talk in person." |

"He's about the only person who is, *sigh*. Come through if you want to."
(Assuming Clive does) "Before you go see Random, is there anything I should know about?" Pippin: Are we lost? Merry: No Pippin: I think we are Merry: Shh. Gandalf's thinkin' Pippin: Merry? Merry: What? Pippin: I'm hungry |

(Clive does come through.)
"Well, I don't have much concrete information yet, but I don't mind you listening in on the report. It looks like some dead people are alive and some live people are dead." |

"Do we know who are which?" Flora asks. "For example, can you rule me out, or Random or Vialle? Is there anyone who should not know you're here? i'd hate to see you die before we get to Random."

"I'm not even sure I could even rule me out to someone paranoid enough," Clive says bluntly. "I've been anonymously warned that my life is in danger, yet as far as I know there've been several chances to take a shot at me and they were all passed up. There might simply be more parties involved that I haven't taken into account."
"I'd worry most about anyone who's jumped into the... oh hell-" Clive takes several rapid steps away. [ ooc: ahahahh! I forgot something important there, for an inexcusably long time. ] |

Flora's eyes widen and she laughs. "You do suspect me. Oh how amusing that someone finally suspects me of being involved in a plot."

[ bingo. The mistake in this post, however, is intentional, unless I botched the sequence of events from old posts that I think were lost. ]
"I just escaped from Weirdsville, population: Weird, so seeing my favorite aunt was a welcome helping of normal, until I remembered what happened the last time I saw you. More about that later. Do you remember trying to draw a Pattern or something on a rock over the abyss while a bunch of crazy stuff happened around you?" Hmm. Now that warning note from notIris has at least three distinct interpretations. Possibly mutually exclusive. |

"Moi? Draw a pattern? You must be joking with me," Flora says affectedly. "The wierdsvillians must have enjoyed you greatly. What exactly do you suspect me of?" She takes a seat. "Should I order tea? Will this be awhile?"

"I think there's a lot more weird ahead of us all. Also, tea sounds good. We should find Random first, though. It'll save us a repetition later."

"Good idea, I suppose." Flora gets up and opens the door to her office and just as quickly shuts it again. "Oh dear," she says faintly and sits quickly down. "There's nothing out there."

"Weird," Clive shudders.
He adds, reaching for his Trumps: "I guess this wasn't really Amber. Wanna try to leave before the rest of it collapses?" Assuming this place isn't trump-blocked, and remembering where he came here from, they should be close enough to go directly through the standard Amber card... |

Flora puts on an mock innocent tone. "My you show an awful lack of curiosity or a complete faith in me. A moment ago you backed away and now you want me to trump somewhere with you. And not even verifying what's out there. Astonishing."

"Well you can stay if you really want to," Clive says lightheartedly. As he peeks out the door anyway.

That's definitely not what he expected.
Clive opens the door more so Flora can see. "Still see nothing?" |

"I take it that you do," she replies and takes a wary glance. A very short duration wary glance. "Nothing still."
