those imprisoned
[While some people are off exploring the maze-like city, not everyone is so fortunate.
This place looks like a stadium with no floor. Circular and endlessly massive, there is a island in the center and a bridge leading into darkness. This island is where many, many pod-like cages are kept. Wires and gears lay dormant, but they're clearly attached to the cages-- and the prisoners within.
The bars aren't big enough to allow a whole arm through, but due to the half-circle's concave shape, all the prisoners can see each other. There is no food or... relief to be found, but the soft humming of the machinery seems to cancel all that out, like a stasis. It feels as if this place is sleeping. Waiting.
Above, the Plane's usual galaxies and planets circle overhead. Below, there is only darkness and oblivion.]
[ooc: This post is for those who want to half-opt-out of the plot, or those who 'die'. They'll wake up here without injury. Feel free to tag amonst yourselves or just pretend you're here anyway. There's no escape, at least for a while.]

[Don't worry, he's not being quite as obtuse as all that, just complaining a little. After a moment, he folds his arms over his chest.]
All right, Doctor. Say that these keys are some way to get to that. Do ye really think they'd just leave them out for us to find? Even if Wolfgang's on our side, no-one else is. And doesn't he keep getting having problems when he's showing up here, anyway? How's he able to help when things keep going wrong?
no subject
You know, I've waited a long time for someone like him to come along and see what the others have done to us, but I've been wondering since then whether his intentions to help us are actually true, or just another way to play games with us all.
no subject
[The 'we' is deliberate - because if the Doctor's going to go and do that, then he's going to need someone to look after him. Who better than Jamie?]
I'd bet ye could come up with some sort of clever way to see if he's really on our side or not.
no subject
[At that comment, he just smiles.] You know me, Jamie. Always clever. [And since direct questions didn't work last time...] Painfully clever, even. Being stuck in here with this great big ol' brain of mine is almost hurtful. All that brain power going to waste... [he trails off as he mutters:] All this and I still can't undo a single lock.
no subject
[He has faith in that. It doesn't change the fact that for the moment, they're still stuck. But maybe if he comes up with something as a distraction it'll take the Doctor's mind off of things just enough that he'll come up with some sudden inspiration.]
Don't suppose you've got some cards hidden in that suit of yours in the meantime? Could do with something to pass the time.
