Twenty-fifth Theory [Action]

[After putting in an obligatory appearance at the baseball game, Donatello is up to some business of his own.

At a certain point during the afternoon, you may find him wheeling a motorcycle from C6 to House 55.

A bit later, you might catch him dragging forty-gallon garbage cans filled with a strange assortment of objects along the same route.

And sometime after that, you may come upon him near the bridge on this path, surrounded by those same garbage cans. Except that they are up-ended now, their contents strewn across the ground. In the center of the mess a bizarre contraption is taking shape.

Question this strange behavior? Watch in silent bafflement? Or maybe just back away slowly.]

((Please indicate at which point you encounter him!))

Hm. [No wrong answers, huh? She smiles at him for the encouragement, then glances back to it.] It... reminds me of a carousel, of sorts. What do you think?

[... Pause.]

I believe the more familiar name for it is a 'merry-go-round'. I think they may have had one at Altamira.

Oh... you're right. They're similar, but not quite the same.

Perhaps I was thinking of something else. ... If the rotating parts were vertical instead of horizontal, then maybe ...

I didn't go out of my way to familiarize myself with the rides, so it's fine.

And yes, that's correct.

I thought that was a variation of a merry-go-round as well...

Right about what?
wise_maiden: (we should talk more about this)

Ah, I see... perhaps you could ask him sometime.

It couldn't hurt, in any case.
