Lecture 12: The New Drones

[doctor_tyrant]

[Phone]

It appears that these "new drones" have started becoming a little too unbearable for the eyes of Mayfield's citizens. Well, then, who am I to ignore the cries of my citizens? Of course I should do something about this. After all, isn't that what a king is meant to do, help the needy of his own whim? But at the same time, I am a doctor and

753 Partridge Drive

[The Doctor may have been looking for BM but against all his better options Mesousa opens the door.]

O...oh, hello neighbor, can I help you?

[Action: Different Houses]

[doctor_tyrant]

...

[The Doctor has a sudden ill feeling when he looks at Mesousa. He looks down at his list and gives a smile. It seems as if the rabbit sacrificed himself, the brave thing.]

... My, my, it's the brave little rabbit. You know, I bet on you in the big fights.

[Mesousa looks somewhat saddeded when the Doctor mentions this.]

Oh, I'm sorry that I lost your money. Is there something I could do to make it up to you?

[Action: Different Houses]

[doctor_tyrant]

Yes. I'd like to dissect you.

[... As brutally honest as the Doctor was right now, he didn't feel that hiding his intentions would be necessary.]

[sturmbahnfurher]

Care for a bit of help, friend?

[Phone]

[doctor_tyrant]

Of course, Major! It's certainly nice to have support from a law enforcer. Would you personally know anybody that has been replaced?

[Phone]

[sturmbahnfurher]

Not too many. But I believe it would not be hard at all to find some, do you not?

And we my friend? Will have no problems covering the area.

[Phone]

[doctor_tyrant]

I'd like to think we're still resourceful enough to do that much, yes.

And I suppose you wouldn't like to take some of those replacements for "questioning", would you? I know I'll have to invest some time in dissecting our new drones.

[It will be plainly obvious to The Doctor that there's a "new drone" in THIS house. Because it just answered the door.]

...yes?

[She's tired, and she's wary-looking, and she looks uncomfortably cold just standing in the doorway.]

[doctor_tyrant]

[The Doctor gives a smile as he checks his notepad once.]

Good evening, miss, I am the Doctor. Mayfield's Doctor. May I ask for your name?

[duck_duck_laser]

Mayfield has a doctor?

[Dakki blinks. Even on a good day, she is not always on time to board the clue bus. This isn't striking her as right... but a lot of things confuse her in this way.

She leans a little farther out the door, looking The Doctor up and down.]

...are you taking a survey?

[doctor_tyrant]

Just one of the many employed at the Hospital. And yes. I'm conducting a study on the so-called "new drones" that appeared in town.

Different houses

[heartstar_blues]

Yeah, what do you want?

Different houses

[doctor_tyrant]

... Oh. If it isn't the Captain's replacement. Yes, good afternoon. I was hoping that you would be willing to comply in a study that I am conducting.

You see, I'm trying to learn as much as I can about you new drones.

[heartstar_blues]

You know, the next guy that calls me a replacement is going to get my boot print in their ☠☠☠☠.

That way, they can compare it when Mayfield cuts this ☠☠☠☠.

In other words, take your ☠☠☠☠ study and shove it up your ☠☠☠☠.

[doctor_tyrant]

...

[Oh, good, he was hoping for that response.]

Excellent. Except you really have no choice in the matter, but you were never a man for civility.

Different Houses. . .

[gezellighe]

[He'll open the door. He'd sent Canada and Hilda out of the house and he was sorely regretting it now.

And then when he sees who it is, he's even more upset.]

Go to hell.

[He will be slamming the door shut.]

Different Houses. . .

[doctor_tyrant]

[... Being the polite man that the Doctor is, he'll give another, friendly knock. His smile is just as it was when he first arrived except for that little hint of excitement it now had.]

[gezellighe]

[And that guy can stand on his porch all day if he'd like. Holland isn't about to give away any names, even if they are all gone and droned.]

[doctor_tyrant]

[It seems to the Doctor that courtesy will get him nowhere. But this is just as he would like it. He stops knocking and instead, stretches his arm out to his side. Electricity begins crackling around it. He thrusts it at the door, blowing it clean off.]

Knock, knock.
