Zoidberg's on the Case! ...As well as some other unimportant people. ((Semi-Closed RP))

[whoopwhoowhoop.livejournal.com]

Zoidberg, proving once again that he was the word’s greatest Inspect Doctor, had solved the case of the missing hat-lady! You just couldn’t trust puppies. Murderers and thieves, the lot of ‘em.

Still, in spite of Zoidberg’s genius, his thoughtful wife had decided that it was still a good idea to pantomime an investigation. Zoidberg completely understood, understanding husband that he was. After all, people had shown up! Bereft with bitterness, they’d be, if they went home without doing any investigating.

So investigate, they would! Asserting his authority –he’d show that hat who the husband in the relationship was!- Zoidberg got down to Business.

“You, you, you, and you! You are team Sassafras Omelet+!” It was all about the cool names. “Go make with the house inspecting. And get me a nice cold cola, while you’re at it!”

“You, you, you, and you*! You are team Sautéed Disco! Go into town and buy me some potato chips! And if you maybe want to look for Mrs. Hat Lady, that’s okay. But don’t you dare forgot those potatoes chips! Don’t you dare!”

Then, because he was on a roll (and who were we to block Zoidberg’s overwhelming cascade of authoritative masculinity?) he pointed to two bystanders. “You and you^! Go ask my wife if she likes me, check yes or no!” Said wife was currently in deep conversation with a young blond man and a redheaded girl. What? Zoidberg needed a little bit of reassurance!

The Hat didn't bother to tell George where the parties were meeting up, but it didn't need to. As soon as she was sorted (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/1437036.html?thread=73385068#t73385068), the girl made her ways through the halls and down to the grounds of Hogwarts. Her rucksack continued to swing against her hip as she then made her way to the group of people. "Hello," she said with quiet confidence, at first directing her greeting to the man crustacean-like alien.

"My name is George, and the Hat sent me to help you look for her." She then waited for his response with more patience than was usually alloted when a person was missing.

What was this? The Hat didn't trust Zoidberg's expert findings? Unacceptable. Well, he would soon see what was what!

Zoidberg. Zoidberg was what was what. FYI.

"Well, the hat sent me to help look for your face!" Ooooh. Zoidberg was truly a masta of the comeback.

A grin spread across George's features. She was used to such remarks from her brothers. "And you found it!" She congratulated him with what did not sound like false praise. Few could maintain their hostility against George's relentless good nature. She looked towards Jon, and received a sharp insight. "Excuse me. If you need to find me again, I'll be nearby." Well, she'd be nearby as soon as she could.

And with an earnest wave, George swiftly walked away from Zoidberg towards Snow.

Inside the house, Aayla spent several minutes concentrating before finally opening her eyes. "I'm getting a few impressions of people and emotions--mostly confusion--but nothing I'd say is conclusive as to where she is or who took her there, if anyone. I'm sorry." She stood up and began looking for more concrete evidence.

((Sorry, I'm going to be out of town until Monday! People in Aayla's group, go ahead and RP without her. Say she's off in another room or something. See y'all in a couple of days!))
