[Draco Malfoy was starting to go a bit stir-crazy. After four straight days of snow, then cold, then more snow, and more cold, he had realized that staying in the confines of House 25 wasn't doing him any good. Hence today he's decided to head to the Battle Dome and test his programming skills. He's gotten pretty good at it, he likes to think.

When his journal clicks on, anyone viewing it will get a good glance of the front of a large manor.]

So...you really can recreate anything, can't you. [He's going to go ahead and walk down the path toward the front door of the house, and as he enters into the front hall he's going to continue talking to the village at large. This may just be a test to see if he can continue communication inside a simulation.]

How are the rest of you coping with the snow we've received over the last few days? I'd like a few back-up plans in case this doesn't serve to satisfy. At least when it was warm I could fly a bit, but this is starting to get ridiculous.

[And he's going to turn down the halls, wandering through the maze that is the manor with the ease of someone so familiar with the area. There are the sounds of other footsteps behind him, but if he hears them he doesn't seem to care.]

What's next, anyway? They've left us alone for a while...may as well start to prepare for something big to come. What are the chances they've grown bored with us? New Feathers. You might be the next targets. You ought to have a fair warning.

[His attention's drawn away from the journal then as the footsteps stop, and he finds himself facing a masked figure.] I was wondering when you'd turn up. [And he's withdrawing his wand, closing the journal. Though the picture's no longer available, the last thing heard is the sound of a spell firing off and ricocheting around the room.

[Though he'll stay in the chamber for the full allotted hour, he will be taking a break between enemies appearing and after his hour's up to answer anyone who's contacted him via journals. People are also free to find him in the main lobby of the Battle Dome as well after his simulation's over.]

Perhaps the scientists take vacations?

...do you suspect they come to the village then and just mingle among us without us realizing it?

Wouldn't you think we would notice that?

Not if they were disguised or if they had spies among us. [To him, it isn't really that uncommon.]

But that would mean distrusting everyone, Draco... I don't think we should worry about that unless there's actual evidence to support it.

I suppose I just like examining theories. What do you suggest instead then?

Maybe they have times when they examine their data instead of collecting more of it?

They could...though it makes you wonder if they ever grow bored with their data about us.

If that were true they would probably stop studying us at all, wouldn't you think...?

That's what the new feathers are for. Of course when they get bored, they just send people out of this world back to where they came from. Likely they often realize they've made a mistake though and bring people back. Hence why we see the same people over and over.

Does that make any sort of sense?

But the Malnosso aren't responsible for bringing us here, or sending us home again. They only place us in the enclosure.

I don't know if I believe that, that's all. I know it's been said but...[He just cuts himself off.] Never mind.

There's no evidence for it, but there's no evidence against it, either. I think until there is there's little need to doubt it.
