INT. EVENING - HALLWAY OUTSIDE DAFYDD'S OFFICE
Juno and Gavin are walking, Gavin in a bit of disbelief.
They round the corner and see...
ANGLE: DAFYDD'S OFFICE
Full on research mode. Books and laptops open, with Dafydd, Rechard, Steven, and Rory about, as well as two Juno and Gavin don't know - Jason is looking through one of Dafydd's books, and Paul is still tied to a chair, slumped over in despair.
On the desk, a map of Waterloo Park has a strange diagram superimposed.
He circles a small area on the map.
Vaguely aware of the conversation, Paul lifts his head at the question.

GAVIN
So the guy just got up from being hit by a minivan?
JUNO
That's what it sounds like. Raychel got clipped, but guy got pegged square on, but no sign of him when the paramedics came for her.

DAFYDD
Given these clues from my books, it would seem the gazebo covering Ataroth's Seal should be this one here.

JASON
Protecting it should just amount to stopping anyone from piercing it-
RECHARD
Is that all?
JASON
(continuing)
Any attempt to pierce the seal will involve a lengthy ritual, the first step of which causes an eclipse. Pretty obvious warning, I guess. After the eclipse begins -
DAFYDD
Lunar or solar?
JASON
It doesn't say. But after it begins, the ritual takes about twelve hours, so we'd have that long to stop it.
STEVEN
The part about the bone from a demon in love - does it have to be a specific demon?

PAUL
I... I don't think so. He didn't say so.
STEVEN
And how demon-y does the demon need to be?
PAUL
Just a touch of demon blood. Full demons are less likely to actually fall in love, I suppose. Those will traces of humanity still in them - vampires, lycanthropes, half-breeds - they're more likely to -
(grimacing, as if willing himself through something)
Oh god, make him stop... he's trying to take over my body...
(pause, slightly calmer)
I was just going after anyone that seemed like they might be in love - people texting, PDAs, couples at make-out spots...
