Little miss Jekyll 
@disqus_di5zvifP4Y a year ago
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She was heard about the Society of Arcane sciences but never put to much thought on it until now, it was her only chance to escape and show her studies to the world.
Her boots made a quick sound against the dirty and wet sidewalk of London, it was another raining night and Nicole's time was short since the hypnosis that she used on the officers will get weaker with time and they will eventually snap out of it when notice she was missing.
The lady run intro the night until the sight of a marble house, like a Greek temple with clockwork on it's top caught her attention.
Nicole quickly paces to the door and start to knock, still soaking wet from the rain.

((Hey there! For the most part, this is a good introduction, though there is one small thing that you’ll likely need to change—Here on the forum, we usually try to avoid using Sabrina’s characters from TGS as much as possible, so, since Henry Jekyll is a very busy man, we have the other characters of the forum meet the new Lodgers at the door.
If you could edit your description to have Nicole simply knock on the door, rather than be invited in by Dr. Henry Jekyll himself, that’d be much appreciated.
Once you do that, other writers will be able to respond and welcome her in! ^-^))

Oscar heard the knock on the door echoing through the Society from the kitchens. He looked around. It didn’t seem like anyone else was going to answer it, so he supposed he was as good a person as any to greet a newcomer.
The door opened to reveal a young man — almost still a teenager — with blond hair and crutches. “Hello? Can I help you?” There was a second’s pause. “Yeah, who am I kidding, you’re soaking wet.”
He opened the door wider.
“Come in!”

"Sure. You can stay here, if you want, while I go get you a towel." He left her in the entrance hall before going to fetch a towel from the laundry room.
He arrived back a minute later carrying a large towel. "Here," he said, handing it to Nicole.

" I can wait until tomorrow, it's pretty late and I don't want to wake a old man up" Nicole sigh, in her mind, Dr Jekyll was a eccentric and well respected man, even if she never saw him in person or around, just heard his name and his accomplishments so she created a image of him as a 60 or 70 years old gentleman, like a charismatic grandpa or elderly mentor

“Old man?” Oscar laughed. “He’s only thirty-something! But you’re right—we usually don’t see him around at night times. D’you want me to sort out somewhere for you to sleep for the night?”

He grinned. “We don’t really see much of Dr Jekyll, though. He’s usually busy doing paperwork or charity events to boost the Society’s public image.
“If you wanted, you could stay in my room for the night. I might be up until dawn, what with nobody in the Society sharing the same sleeping pattern. I work in the kitchens, see.
“Speaking of, d’you want anything to eat?”

“I don’t know if there’s anywhere else you can sleep. The Society’s usually pretty full. You could stay in the infirmary for the night, just until we find a room for you.

As they entered the kitchen, a warm loaf of bread lay on one of the benches. Oscar cut a piece off and handed it to Nicole.
The kitchen was warm and inviting, as if it was always alive and ready to welcome visitors.

He thought about that for a moment. "Well, I wasn't really expecting anything much. I was looking for a job, and somewhere to get fixed up—" He gestured to his bandaged leg and crutches. "—and all I'd heard was that the Society was a pretty good place to be."

There was the sound of hurried footsteps, then the Society door swung open to reveal a brunette woman of a similar height to Nicole, smartly dressed in a grey three piece suit.
“Oh dear,” She said at the sight of the newcomer, her brow furrowing in concern, “You’re absolutely drenched—Please, come on in.”
With those words, she opened the door wider, stepping aside to allow her through.

“I should hope so,” She said, returning the smile, though her brow remained creased with concern.
“Oh, forgive me, where are my manners? I’m Dr. Helen Jekyll, no relation to the co-founder Dr. Henry Jekyll, and I’m the day manager of the Society.”
A glance to Nicole as they continued to walk.
“May I have your name?”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Miss Anderson,” Helen said with a nod, opening the door to the infirmary so that Nicole may enter.
“Ah yes, as I mentioned before, he’s one of the two founders of the Society. He handles the major financing and paperwork, which keeps him quite busy, I’m afraid—It’s a rarity to find him unoccupied with some manner of business or another.”

“Alright, Nicole it is then,” agreed Helen, approaching a cabinet and pulling out several towels, along with an extra blanket, before offering the items to her.
“Here you are—These should help keep you warm while I find you something dry to change into.”

“It’s my pleasure,” She returned with a little bow and smile, “I’m simply glad to help.”
For a moment, Helen disappeared from sight as she stepped into another adjacent room, returning promptly with a plain, light blue dress with white sleeves.
“This looked about your size, if you’d like to try it on so your clothes can dry.”

“That would be the co-founders—One must get the consent from one or the other in order to join.”
“However,” She went on the explain, “I’m one of the handful of people who often help newcomers gain the approval of either Dr. Jekyll or Dr. Lanyon, then get settled in.”
“I take it you’re interested?” Helen asked with a curious smile.

Nicole bite her lip and take the bag from Helen, taking a small purse that was attached to a belt, she open it and take some objects out : a journal, some herbs, a feather and a pocket watch full of symbols and some tiny gemstones and show it to Helen " with this...I found it in a book I brought some years ago"

“How curious,” She said of the items, studying them intently before shifting her gaze to Nicole.
“So, when you say... ‘put your conscience into theirs’... are you truly entering another’s mind with your own?”

“Oh, no need to apologize, I was enjoying listening,” Helen assured with a kind laugh, “Most scientists have passion in their work, and I would love for you to continue, but I’d like to ask one thing of you first.”
“Whenever you do this procedure of yours, does it require the patient’s consent?”

Helen gave a small smile, though her expression had turned rather serious.
“Ah, in that case, I must insist that you do not enter another person’s mind while within the Society without that person’s explicit permission—The mind is a very sacred place, and one shouldn’t step foot in it uninvited.”
She tipped her head to one side.
“Do you understand that if you do trespass into someone’s head without their permission while staying here, you will have to face consequences?”

“Well, should you come across someone comatose or in a catatonic state, please consult with their brethren before doing so, since the patient wouldn’t be able to give consent.”

“Oh dear, pardon me, I best be getting you to a room.”

Helen held Nicole’s gaze then let out a heavy sigh, looking sober.
“I’m afraid that the road to hell is paved with good intentions—Your actions still have consequences, regardless of whether you’re pure of heart or not,” She explained with a shake of her head, “If you do something you believe is right, and someone gets hurt because of it... the blame still rests on you.”
Something in her eyes told of the bitter experience in which she’d learned such a truth.
