"I don't suppose you know where they keep their books," Sunflower muses. "Bound to be some information on what can wake people up."
"Wouldn't do us much good unless it's in a book light enough for the little fellow to carry," you sigh. "Or can he read now, too?"
"I don't see why he couldn't learn," Sunflower shrugs. "But we never taught him. Perhaps we could have a look anyhow, in case the doctor's woken up on his own?"
You suppose it's worth a try. From what you recall, the dart seemed to be an emergency measure, so it wouldn't need to be a strong sedative - you don't need someone to stay unconscious for very long if you're planning to flee.
You lead everyone to the window and take a quick look inside.
Well. The doctor seems to be starting to wake up - but there's someone else in there with him. You can catch a glimpse of a breather mask around their neck, but you can't tell what exactly they're doing. They're not focused on the doctor, though, so they may not realize he's awake.
You'd best think carefully about what to do here. If the doctor pretends to stay asleep, he might be fine... but how can you warn him without alerting the intruder?

There's no reason for this | Or this | Death is inevitable | You can't challenge fate | The smallest change | I'm overwhelmed
I'm serious | It makes perfect sense | Easy as ABC! | I can't even explain it | Cleaning up someone else's mess
I suck | I rule | I've got it made | Really, I'm serious | This bugs me | It's all lies | I want to believe | Beauty is a curse
