You know what the trouble with magic is? It's so very capricious! It does more what it would like to do than what you would like it to do!
[ But he stood up, paced around his drawing and gave his new magic a try anyway. ]
Though only made of chalk you may be,
A little magic could set you free!
[ He watched closely as the chalk drawing on the ground did absolutely nothing! Finally the Doctor huffed, dropped his 'Tah dah' hands to his side and moved over to collect his mirror. ]
Oh well... can't win them all can you? I only thought to check in, see how you are all doing after that adventure. I should probably mention a friend and I have plans to go out again and take another look around. No need to worry if you don't hear from me for a while.
[ Suddenly his arm was tugged, jostling the mirror and the Doctor himself who turned to face a giant pink alligator with a green tutu. One of the drawings finally come to life. ]
You're late!
[ The alligator shrugged as the marching band made out of various sizes and types and colors of animals started to play an upbeat tune which seems to go well, encouraging both alligator and Doctor to dance along with the band, until a rabbit with a top hat broke ranks and snatched some carrots off a market cart. And a dog with an Oboe smashed a cat with a violin over the head with a stolen pumpkin. Then the happy little parade turned into a frantic food fight.
OOC: Feel free to have your characters caught up in the fray if you'd like to. ]

I'm glad it did work. I don't know what I would have done with those creatures if it hadn't.
[ He probably would have thought of something but that spell had been very helpful! ]
Well, I have better go and make sure they have all melted and, leave you to your nap, of course. Thank you Eleanor.
