event: break-in

[mayfield_mods]

[Anyone who drops by the dairy between the hours of three PM and five PM on Tuesday will find that the door's been unlocked. Even though the door's shut, there's a strange humming sound coming from inside the building.

Careful if you want to try to peek inside, though. You may not like what you find.]

Placeholder, because sadly, I do have to sleep eventually ;u;

[Well, no sense in being subtle or cagey about this since the town always seems to know what everyone is up to all the time anyway. Here's Dad, pipe in mouth and layer cake in hand, striding confidently up to the door of the dairy looking for all the world like a deliveryman making his rounds. Ain't nothing gonna shake his cool.]

[And he has a classy lady at his side, holding a martini glass and looking around as though she's out for some casual stroll. She has, however, thought to bring a camera and some film.]

[Shifting the cake to balance it in one hand, Dad walks up and opens the door, stepping aside to hold it open for his wife like a classy gent.]

After you, my dear.

[He'll be following right behind her when she goes in.]

[pinkscarflady]

Why thank you.

[She enters the dairy, glancing around curiously.]

So this is the fabled 'Mayfield Dairy.' I must say, it's not really what I was expecting...

[mayfield_mods]

[It's extremely dark and cold within, enough that they won't be able to see much other than their breath materializing in the air. The humming seems to be coming from a corner deep within.]

[Dad reaches into his pocket for his lighter - it's going to have to do for now. Passing it off to Mom, he keeps a tight grip on that cake and his wits about him as they step inside.]

I'm not sure what I was expecting, to be honest.

Hint: It was vampire cows...

[pinkscarflady]

[She quickly finishes the martini, and accepts the lighter with her newly free hand, shining it around for a better look.]

I'd tell you what I was expecting, but I'd rather not give them any ideas.

[The lighter doesn't do much to reveal anything of interest and seems to illuminate even less of the darkness than it normally would.]

[busy_fists]

Hmm... kinda makes me wish we brought a flashlight. Oh well, guess it's too late for that now. Stick close by.

[Dad keeps pressing forward, slowly but surely.]

[pinkscarflady]

[She nods, and follows him closely.]

I don't think we're going to have much time. Let's see what we can find.

[The machine humming in the back is glowing, surrounded by some sort of force field]
