((Sir Milo Quartermass srry I forgot about you.))
Quinn slept in the same room as Helen and Darren, and woke with nightfall. Helen had slept in her clothes and was already up and doing some spot grooming in the restroom nearby. Darren was buried in blankets, unmoving.

((It's cool! It's almost 3am here so I'll have to pumpkin soon anyway.))Quinn had taken off his jumper to sleep (more out of a sense of propriety and habit than anything else). He rose quietly and tugged it back over his head from where he'd laid it out before falling asleep. He looked over at the Darren-Lump and debated engaging with it (lest it was a surly riser). He aired on the side of caution, gave the Darren-Lump a few more minutes and checked his phone for messages first.  "..."

Surprisingly, given all the foolery from the previous night, he hadn't received any since last he checked. Did he have any other things to do on the phone?

Quinn tapped his phone a few times against his palm, thinking, before tucking it away again. Still not wanting to poke the reluctant Darren-Lump, he stood a respectful distance away from the loo and talked to Helen instead."Miss Helen? What's on the agenda for the day, if you don't mind my asking?"

Helen-
"'Miss Helen'? Am I a schoolteacher? You..."
She came out into sight.
 
Helen-
"I really have no idea what's going on tonight, and I doubt anyone else knows either."

Quinn smiled placatingly. "Not a schoolteacher, no...but still a lady, certainly. Unless you'd rather I leave off the honorifics?" He leaned easily against the nearest wall."Well, if there are no plans, shall we set some? Or are we in a bit of a 'holding pattern' until the 'higher ups' deign to speak?"

She stepped onto the bed and sat on the Darren lump.
Helen-
"I know Ausmiller and Ellen will stay here, but maybe the rest of us can do something else. We should ask Ellen what she thinks though." |

 "Sounds sporting enough to me." Something Darren had said last night occurred to him and he cleared his throat. "Ehm...so...Aubrey's labyrinth...thing. What is the likelihood of extricating someone from it?" |

Helen-
"Aww, don't worry. I'm sure Greyburns can find their way out if they really want it. We have a kind of illusion sense, y'know?" ((Mr. DM should probably not have made le Darren say that, b/c I like the bookshelves to have a Lethean quality and make people forget the damned. Forgeeeeeeeetttttt))

((Ohgads, look at Quinn suddenly forgetting why he was ever conceeeerned. His mind is filled with felicity and dryer-fuzziiiiieeeesss)) "Of course, you're quite right. Silly of me to be so fussed, really. Hm." He peered at the Darren-Lump."...Not a 'morning' person though, is he?"

((Faaaan-tastic.))
Helen-
"Heehee. Daaaarrrrren?" She drummed on his lumpen outline.
Darren-
"Maaaaaan."

"Mm, I'll take that as a no." To Darren -"Evening, old thing. Dreadfully sorry." |

Helen-
"It's alright for a creature of the night." She finally dismounted the dude with no flourish, and he grumbled his way vertical.
Darren-
"*grmblgrmbl*"
As she led them out into the hall, 
Helen-
"Anything you guys would like to do with your time?"

Quinn thought about it a little bit and came up more-or-less blank. He was used to being lead around by stronger personalities or having his life strictly regimented. This unstructured lifestyle was still one he was coming to grips with."I'm...not sure. Suppose we can't just sit about doing nothing though, can we? Darren, do you have any ideas?"

Darren-
"Don't look at me. I just wanna get out of here."
Helen-
"Understandable. It's kinda gloomy."
She rapped on Ellen's door. A short exchange of words later, and she stepped into the hall. 
Ellen-
"What's all this?"
Helen-
"We were wondering what we should do tonight with the kids? Now that you have Ausmiller, maybe I should take them out somewhere? Really, I don't know about all of them having to stay in this dusty building with the creepy drop ceiling, the dust bunnies, the spiders..."
Ellen-
"Point taken. Yes, Ausmiller and I could be sufficient for the fight. As much as I'd like your help, I'd rather... Well, you know. If one of the kids drives well, you can borrow my car, but I'd like it back tonight."
Helen-
"Can we do wheelies in it?"
Ellen-
"You break it, you bought it."
