Who: Saber and Waver
When: 14 Jan
Where: Waver's house
What: Experiments. Door experiments.
Warnings: N/A



[If there is an unlocked door, the proper thing to do is to go through it. The scientific thing to do, when faced with an island full of magic that cannot be controlled and magically appearing doors, is to have someone be there in case everything goes terribly wrong.

Given the available options, Waver sends the following text to Saber:]

I assume you've seen the doors. For the sake of knowing what lies behind them, I'm going through, but I want someone to time how long I'm on the other side. Can you help?

An hour, is all. [She stays close, on the defence.]

Was it longer for you?

[gordianknots]

No, not at all. Time works the same, so that's good to know.

[he sighs] It's in my brain, Saber, you can't exactly defend me against my own mind.

[untilavalon]

[A word catches in her throat; she's taken by surprise at how he read her.]

It's instinct. [Well, it is.]

Was there anything else of interest?

[gordianknots]

[Waver tilts his head back and stares upwards at the ceiling]

There was no one on the other side of those doors. I walked into a village - nothing. NO one was on the roads, not a single bird chirped, I saw no bugs, no animals, nothing. The whole place was desolate and saturated.

And the price for going through is getting another aspect of Jack of Kent's.

[untilavalon]

I'll stay out of my door then. [The pink hair is enough.]

This is absolutely ridiculous. THere's no explanation- no way to understand..

[gordianknots]

It is playing with curiosity and giving no further answers - only adding further questions. I'd definitely stay out of yours.
