Tied to dynamic's thread with Ayumi. :D

Why is there a group of strange brightly coloured animals standing in front of a section of the second floor?

Scratch that, why is there ANYTHING standing in front of a section of the second floor? Which happens to be roped off with police tape.

Also why is there no Ayumi to keep a handle on these things if someone decides to investigate them..?

((OOC - Cards outside include fox (pictured above) along with pheasant, lemur, and king cobra. :D Ayumi might appear depending on what you do though. -u-))

"Ah- Of course..!" A quick nod to the holograms in question gets them to do just that, though they're obviously a little unsure about it. "What are you trying?"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"I'm only getting a high radiation reading from one of the doors -- the rest read only a little above normal, the same as a person might read after an x-ray, and they're fading quickly. I think that they're stable -- except for that one with the high reading. To test my theory, I'm going to see what effect impacting the doors has."

Kneeling to turn his power-enhancing shoe on, Conan checks to see that Ayumi has her friends well out of the way. "All good?"

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

The response is a nod, and a thumbs up. "Hai!"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"All right then ..."

Conan sizes up the distance between them and the first shrunken door. Popping a soccer ball from his belt, he kicks it expertly, the ball slamming into the door -- and nothing happening.

"Huh. I guess they really have stabilised."

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Nn. So everything is safe then now?"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"Not quite -- that was a door with a normal reading. Now for the one with the abnormal reading."

Wash, rinse, repeat -- but this time when the soccer ball smacks into the door there is a definite difference, aka. one explosion.

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Hih-!" Excuse her while she attempts to keep her heart from jumping out of her throat now..! "That's definitely abnormal...!! ...What was he trying to make...?" He being the... Other Conan-kun of course.

Man, these kids need nicknames or something...

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"Now everything is safe," Conan finished. "I'll just confirm that the radiation levels have returned to normal -- mm? A shrink gun, of course."

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Well it definitely worked..."

The holograms are slowly inching their way over from behind Ayumi, you might want to get a handle on that...

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

Conan climbs back over the police tape, doing his check of the doors -- apart from the fact that there is now a second hole in the wall, everything is normal.

"All clear!"

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Hn. Does this mean the chair in Conan-kun's room is safe as well now?"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

... the chair?

((ooc: If you mean the chair in dynamic!Conan's post, that's in the lobby.))

Yea just remembered that. -headdesk- Errr... Pretend I said lobby? D||

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Yea- he was roping it off..."

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"We'd better check it out! Lead the way!"

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Nn! This way..!" And while she's at it, turning off the duel disk now- four giant monster things is probably something that will get in the way.

To the lobby!

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

Good idea, Ayumi-neechan. Conan's curious though.

"How do those creatures relate to the cards you showed us?"

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Hn? Oh!" She holds up her duel disk as they move. "The disk projects their holograms based on the chip in the card. They normally aren't that 'alive' of course but... Like I said, it's probably just the mansion right? It does things like this doesn't it?" Well.

Partially.....

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"Geez ... this place gets weirder every day." That was meant more for himself than Ayumi, this Conan not quite yet having surrendered to the logic-less logic of the Mansion. "This is the first time I've heard of anything like that but there's a lot of people who talk of the Mansion as if it is alive itself ... I wonder ..."

Ah, there's the lobby just up ahead. "How many chairs was it?"

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Hn... Well. To be honest, it's the best thing I can think of- the only other conclusion would mean that my cards are actually alive..." And frankly, that makes her very... Very...

Very mad at Koji, since he called it completely. Ack-

Oh, chairs, right! "There was only one- you really can't miss it, he did a good job of containing it..!"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

Conan considers that. "Any way to check that?"

"Containing it?" Conan's questions are stopped as he sees the barrier in question. "... ha."

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Hnn, none that I know-" Turning to look at the barrier now. "Oh... He left it the way it was when I left..."

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"Maybe we should suggest Conan-kun makes that his next project."

At least the chair is securely cordoned off -- no one is going to miss that amount of police tape or cones. Conan has a hard time crawling through the tape to get close enough to measure the chair.

"Hmm."

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

Yep, there's about as much tape as before...

She's not even gonna try getting through that. "Nn- How's the reading, Conan-kun?"

[are-too-holmes.livejournal.com]

"It seems a shame to say it, given how much tape was devoted to it, but the chair's clear!" Pocketing the geiger counter, Conan began to crawl out of the space but quickly realised he wasn't going anywhere.

"Uh."

[ayumi-yoshida.livejournal.com]

"Uh..?" W-Wait... "D-Don't tell me you're stuck..!!"
