Question

[sir_doctor]

So, I have a little problem that I'm wondering if someone can help me with. In the TARDIS I have a trunk. It's good trunk. Had it some time now. Rather fond of it, but I have a problem. I seem to have lost the key and it's a deadlock seal. Can't open it with the sonic screwdriver. Wouldn't be a very safe trunk to keep things in if I could do that, would it?

Now, there's something I need inside it that can't really wait, so I was wondering if there's any locksmiths about? It would need to be talented one, because it's an unusual lock. Very large, and needs quite a large key.

So, yes, if there's someone out there who thinks they could open it, do drop me a line as soon as you can? Thanks much!

I might be able to. What sort of price would you be willing to pay?

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Pay? I don't actually have any money, so...

[mistress-yuuko.livejournal.com]

Who said I was asking for money? Do you have anything you'd be willing to trade, dear? Of course, it has to be equal to the service. This doesn't sound like it will be too difficult unless there is a strong magical seal on the lock as well.

Surely you have something you'd be willing to barter with.

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Trade? Well, I do have a lot of odds and ends in the TARDIS.

Though, there's someone who thinks they can open it, so, I suppose we could all meet and have a go? I'll find you something I'm sure to pay for your service.

[mistress-yuuko.livejournal.com]

Oooh, a TARDIS sounds interesting. I bet it has a lot of fun odds and ends.

I can accept that. Just tell me when and where, dear.

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Well, I can show you it if you'd like some time, if you'd be interested. Can't take you anywhere in it, unfortunately, but other than that issue, it's mostly up and running.

Tomorrow at Cafe Eresaet near Niflheim gate sound alright?

[mistress-yuuko.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's fine, I'm needed here for a little longer before I go off traveling again. I would still be very interested in seeing it.

Sounds fine.

My keyblade should be able to unlock it!

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

A keyblade? Can't say I've heard of one of those, but if you think it'd work, we could give it a try.

[keychainheart.livejournal.com]

It can unlock just about anything! Want me to drop by and try?

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

That would be brilliant. Would some time tomorrow be alright?

[keychainheart.livejournal.com]

Yup! Where are you?

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Not too far from the Cafe Ersesat at Niflheim, which is where I've been telling everyone else to meet. How about that?

[keychainheart.livejournal.com]

I'll be there!

[rigsthegame.livejournal.com]

That's no good, a trunk without a key is just a very low table. I may be able to help you out there boss, though in payment I'd have to insist you stop by my shop for some coffee later.

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Well, if you want to come have a look, I suppose that's a fair enough trade, although I'm bit more a tea drinker myself.

[rigsthegame.livejournal.com]

I'd be happy to boss.

Well, to each their own. I'm not as in practice with brewing tea as I am the art that is a good cuppa joe, but I think I can still remember how to do it.

[sir-doctor.livejournal.com]

Brilliant! I might drop by anyways then.

Maybe a meeting tomorrow? At the cafe ersaet near Niflheim gate?

[rigsthegame.livejournal.com]

Works for me.

[humaniste.livejournal.com]

A TRUNK.

LOCKS ARE NOT MY STRENGTH, BUT I CAN TRY.

I NEED TO SPEAK WITH YOU. THERE IS MORE OUTSIDE THE DOMES THAN THE MAP SHOWS.
