[ Because it seems to be the hippest thing to do if you happen to be a Time Lord, it is apparently Romana's turn to use these god-like abilities to her advantage.

And just what does that mean? In her case, it means that she is apparently a little home sick given how the entirety of the House of Hartshaven has now manifested within the Plane with the other portions of Gallifrey that have been here already, complete with a section of the vineyard, because she isn't one to forget the details.

The doors are unlocked, allowing anyone to enter. Inside are a variety of doors throughout the different hallways that lead into any rooms imaginable: libraries, studies, bedrooms, even a dining room fit to accommodate a large dinner gathering if need be! Feel free to venture forth and what not. There's even a winery for those who wish to sample some good old fashion Gallifreyan wine. And trotting about the home and outside are new occupants. All in which are wearing collars that have keys hanging from them.

Keys to what, you may ask? Why, to the secret doors that are locked when you try to open them! What are behind those doors? Well, managing to catch one of these large fluffy canines and stealing the key is the only way to know!

One of them happens to be walking alongside her, who had traded her Presidential robes (finally) for her preferred choice of a blouse and ankle-length, layered skirt and a pair of Victorian Boots. She's stroking the canine's head affectionately as she wanders. ]

I must say I can find the appeal in all this.

[ ooc: Because all the Time Lords are doing it. Anyway, the keys unlock rooms that hold segments of places that Romana has been to. It's more of a subconscious thing really, trying to protect what is precious to her/make her happy. One room will open up to a cafe in Paris, another to a laboratory on Argolis, to Professor Chronotis' office in Cambridge, etc. VERY INTER ACTIVE BECAUSE I felt like it. Oh, and this is back dated like you wouldn't believe. ]

My Lady? [He recognised Hartshaven immediately and knew who might have built it. So of course he went to her.] I see you've been gifted as well.

Hello there, Braxiatel. [Clearly she isn't surprised by him finding her. After all, this entire thing practically screams TIME LORDS OVER HERE. But that aside--] Apparently I have.

You've put it to good use. I don't suppose I could convince you to take a walk with me to the vineyards?

I was feeling a little sentimental after seeing bits of our home being brought here. A mistake, I'm sure, but a mistake that I don't mind seeing if only for a little while. [She scratches the dog sitting beside her behind the ear.] I don't see why not.

I don't think it a mistake. [It has been a long, long time since he has been home. But he masks that and offers his present his arm, mimicking a gesture that has not happened for her yet.] If I may have the honour.

[She accepts the offer, her expression that of gentle amusement, even if it doesn't reach her eyes. Seeing her home once more was bringing back memories and normally she was not one to be sentimental.] Mistakes can appear to be gifts you know.

[He walks to the vineyard with her, wondering if she will remember this when she catches up.] I'm sure that's what my parents said about my younger brother.

[It would have been very unlady-like to snort, so instead her left eyebrow rises in question.] Really now, Brax. [The Plane and their time line(s) work in mysterious ways-- who is to say what will be remembered and what will not be?]

Sorry, did I say anything inappropriate? [Brax is just troublesome.] Have you named your dogs?

[Leela had never actually seen the House of Heartshaven. She had visited it, but she had not seen it. She approached because the building was very clearly Gallifreyan, but she did not recognise it until she stepped inside. The building was alive this time - and not only because of the strange hounds that filled the building - but the sounds of the building - of her footsteps on the cool stones and the heavy memories of generations of Time Lords - had not changed.

Fortunately, she was more interested in finding Romana than exploring beyond locked doors.]

... Romana?

[To say the least it was strange walking through the halls that had once occupied her childhood and family. The canines were certainly new and at the time she could not think of any reason as to why they were there, but she found their company to be welcoming. With a faint 'click' the door closed behind her and the animal as she walked back into the hall way.

Upon hearing her name, and spoken by a familiar voice no less, she immediately took to following Leela's voice.]

Leela?

Did you do this? Have you been granted the plane's strange powers as well?

[At the sound of Romana's voice, she picked up her pace and hurried to join her.]

[She could hear her footsteps now with her voice, which meant she was close now.]

I did and I have been. It's strange though-- I never would have imagined any of this possible. It's too good to be true.

At least you can control your powers. There are other people who cannot.

[Bob is curious more than anything. He seems the most interested in the dogs, but that's because he likes them more than buildings. Buildings make him acutely aware he's out of place. Unless it's a leaky hut. But don't let that fool you, he's soaking up the details like a particularly dry sponge.]

[The dogs don't object to the attention and will sit patiently, almost as if waiting upon any visitors. In the company of one herself, Romana comes into view and takes notice of him within her apparent homage to the past. She doesn't say anything at first-- merely observing for the time being.]

[Bob notices her immediately.] Hello, ma'am.

They seem to have taken a liking to you.

They just need to be respected. [He tips his hat.] Bob Fraser, Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
