Run, run, follow me [Open Mingle]

Date: Saturday, 4.1.2020
Characters: OPEN


I.

It's midday when trouble seems to brew underfoot. Literally underfoot, in cases - wherever the Numbered are, they'll suddenly find dormice approaching them, running around their feet, in some cases up their legs, aiming to get their attention, and then running off - coming back again, running off once more in the same direction.

Trying to get the Numbered to FOLLOW.


II.

If Numbered decide to follow the mice, they'll be lead through the streets, fields, or whatever there is (in some cases, this might mean that the mice are trying to lead them through the military area aroudn the air base). Perhaps they'll run into other Numbered on the way - all mice seem to be leading those that they lead into the exact same direction.


III.

The direction of, it turns out, the tunnels under the cliffs. The mice will easily slip through the grates that bar the entries - the grates were made to keep humans out and let a tiny mice through easily. The Numbered, however... well, the grates were installed solid and sturdy to keep humans out. The mice will vanish in the tunnels and not come back.

2.
If there was one thing Jimmy couldn't resist, it was his curiosity. When the mice catch his attention, he can't resist following them. He follows them, trying to keep track of where they were as he goes. If another of the Numbered happens to join him on the trip he greets them with a wave.

3.
The tunnels. Of course it was the tunnels.

Jimmy kneels down by the grate and debates where to go from here.

"Oh, hello." She was at work when... well. This happened. Mice. Lots of mice. And she normally wouldn't abandon her post like this, but she can hardly receive patients while there's mice all over her office...

Which makes her wonder, with him being out here and heading in the same direction... "...You don't happen to have been accosted by mice, too?"

"You too, huh?" Jimmy shrugs. "I figured if they wanted me to follow them that much, I might as well see what they want."

"...I actually should be at work. I can just hardly receive any patients while there's a bunch of mice running all over my office.

...I really hope that was the only room of the surgery that they were running about in."
