[Action: Mayfield shops]

[Sarah Jane can be found shopping for Christmas gifts. She occasionally picks up an item and places it in her basket.

Sometimes she picks something up and sets it back down.]


No, that's something Luke would like.

[Later in the day, her shopping expedition takes on much more focus and determination and she examines such things as paper supplies and makes notes.]

Yes, that might work...

[Action: In and around 2238 Stevens]

[Sarah Jane returns home from the shops and tucks her purchases into a closet before stopping in the living room to readjust the picture of her with Luke and his friends. Once she finishes there she goes back outside to hang a wreath on the door with a small shake of her head.]

[ Said in a quiet tone... ] Not the weight for origami, no.

It's mostly printstock. The drones would probably think origami was suspicious and foreign.

Hmm.

[ Ilsa picks up a boxed ream of paper, ] this is the weight we use in the memograph at the law office.

[Sarah Jane latches onto the most important piece of information in that statement]

There's a mimograph at the law office?

It's how I've been copying my notes, and the map Tarvek drafted for me to give to new residents.

[ She glances about, putting the box in her basket. ]

Working on getting another built for a basement, eventually. But getting it to stay true to local standards is hard... don't want it to disappear.

I might be able to help you with that. I usually work with more advanced technology, but that's what improvising is for. THere's a project where that sort of thing might be useful.

Good, because my favorite mechanical engineers can't leave well enough alone, and I'm afraid we'd lose the work if things go weird again.

[Sarah Jane laughs]

Sounds like they would get along with the Doctor.

The police officer with the portable call box? I've met him a time or two.

[ Ilsa nods. ] Getting them all in one place might be the hardest part.

I used to travel with him. It was quite the experience.

Considering he ended up in my pantry with it, I can quite imagine!

He never was very good at ending up where he was trying to. It was always somewhere interesting, but almost never where he was aiming for.

[ Ilsa chuckles, and nods. ] I have an uncle like that... [ she frowns ]... haven't seen him in a while. Hm.

Ah, well - Let me get the manual for the machine from work, and see if we can set to duplicating it.

Having the manual should at least be a bit more straightforward than starting from scratch.

[ She chuckles. ] What is it with the engineers that don't read the instructions?

Probably trying to prove some sort of point.

Hm, Intuitive engineering doesn't always work.

[ Ilsa looks around the store, scanning the shelves. ]

I'll keep an eye out for the other supplies as well.

Thank you. It's going to take a bit to get this off the ground, but I think it's important.
