eighth problem [ dictated / action ]

[withmymind]

[ Today finds River on the third floor, specifically outside where The Four Seasons Room would be. She's been in it before, only on Tuesdays so far, and after watching over Zoe in the clinic and her now being awake River decided to come back.

Although that plan had a slight hitch to it.

The door to the room? Isn't there. She's walked down the corridor a few times and has come back, checking a few doors as she goes (don't mind the young girl peeping in to your room) but no matter how many times she looks the room isn't there.

And she doesn't like it ]

Gone.

[ She sounds confused, and a little sad ]

Not moved just missing. Not filled in.

[ No construction work went on, basically ]

No trace.

No sun.

[ Oh, that girl. What was her name again...

Yes. River. So now he's dictating into the journal. ]

What has gone, if you do not mind my asking?

[withmymind]

A room. Not destroyed.

[echivoc]

Relocated. What room?

[withmymind]

Rooms don't move.

The sun.

[echivoc]

[ "The sun..." ] The seasons room?

[withmymind]

Should be there.

[pacificate]

The Castle doesn't lend itself to constancy.

[withmymind]

Should. It helps.

[pacificate]

Change is exciting.

[withmymind]

Change is destructive.

[someoneto_carry]

What's gone, River?

[withmymind]

The sun. Not the real one.

[someoneto_carry]

Then...which sun?

[withmymind]

The one inside. It's as warm.

[someoneto_carry]

...The four seasons room, you mean?

[cricketycricket]

... [he doesn't like that tone, especially not from her]

What's gone, River?

[withmymind]

A room. It had sun.

[cricketycricket]

... Wait, the Seasons Room? It's gone? Completely?

[now THAT'S troubling]

[withmymind]

Should be there. It isn't. [ Although it's the wrong day for it to be there, though she doesn't know that ]

[cricketycricket]

Oh? Well, it's --

[he thinks about it for a moment, then realizes] Oh. That's because the door only opens a few days out of the week, River.

[jimfromit]

[This isn't concern...its more you fascinate the hell out of him.]

Has something gone?

[withmymind]

Yes. I said.

[jimfromit]

Enlighten me....what's gone?

[withmymind]

The room with the sun.

[jimfromit]

The four seasons?

Maybe the castle likes a little spring cleaning now and again?
