Rose needed time. Time to think, time to get away, time alone. And she wouldn't get that in the museum. She was afraid to get too near the barn. And the carnival would only land her in front of the enigmatic eyes of one John Smith.

So after dropping off her stupid stupid survey with that stupid, stupid idiot, she started exploring the areas she didn't know. John's words about the tunnels had given her an idea. The Doctor had told her that they'd need a safe place for Remus to be confined during the full moon. Though on Earth, they'd have nearly a month, there was no guarantee here, and the sooner, the better. And if there were tunnels beneath them, there were bound to be other locations the locals didn't know of, right?

The impulsive Londoner of course would take it on herself to find said location. She'd taken the boy under her wing, after all, and he was sort of her responsibility. And looking around town would give her a chance to ignore those she wanted to avoid. That list was growing longer by the moment, really. And in a place where there were only so many places to hide away? Hell, maybe she needed that safe place for herself just as much as for Remus.

So she started with the theater, the sight of her earlier snuggling with one John Smith. Snuggling? No, that was a bit too much there, wasn't it? Chatting, yes. A bit of comfort. He'd made her smile. But no snuggling.

She slipped under the marquis and lowered the hood of her jacket, glancing around. She felt a bit like a spy, and Rose wouldn't deny the little thrill that ran through her. It was sort of exciting, the kind of excitement she hadn't had since the TARDIS had landed her back in London. Carefully, she tugged the door to the large building open, wondering why she hadn't ventured inside this place till now.

Rose looked thoughtful as she climbed the steps on to the stage and then through the wings. The theater at her school had always had the steps to the area beneath behind the wings, so it was a good possibility this one did, too. There was also often one just beneath the stage, but she didn't know how to access it. An unlit ghost light stood in the middle of the stage, looking somehow even more spooky without the glowing beam.

"I haven't explored the museum much yet. It's packed, there's so many people staying there. But it would be nice if we could find something there. That's where he and I have been staying and a few of my friends are there, too. We could keep an ear out during the night, in case..." She didn't want to finish that sentence, so Rose just shrugged her shoulders, wishing the electricity worked in this place. It was almost pitch black and she was very, very human.

"I wouldn't have thought a museum would be a comfortable place to stay... though I suppose none of the buildings here are exactly meant for people to stay in." Selene took note of what was left of the curtains, the fabric definitely torn and showing signs of age, but there was enough left in spots to have some use. Finding somewhere to sleep indoors certainly sounded appealing after the last three days. When Rose mentioned keeping an ear out Selene glanced over, frowning a little. "If he turned in the midst of you all it wouldn't be pretty. From what he told me he has practically no control over the animal. He's wild. That's a dangerous situation for anyone." Which was why she wanted to find somewhere to contain him for the night. He would be a handful, even for her. She wasn't even sure she could contain him without having her killing instincts kick in. Selene was hoping for the best, but mentally preparing for the worst. If he became too dangerous she would have to kill him, that's all there was to it.

Selene was walking a little ahead, not having near as much trouble seeing in the near darkness though her vision wasn't perfect, but she tried to keep an eye on Rose as well, pausing and lightly grabbing her arm to stop her from tripping over some fallen lighting. "Careful." The vampire kicked things aside to keep a path for them, frowning when they came to the stairs, knowing it was likely only to be darker below. "I almost wish the power worked in this place, though with the condition of everything I'd be worried it might start a fire."
