It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.
... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!
After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

[ After hearing what this town has for store for them in the meeting, Harry's just as likely to trust someone in jail as anyone else, so... ]
I'll see what I can do. [ Except he knows literally nothing about picking locks without magic, so he'll start looking around the station of keys. ] How did you get put in there?
I'm not quite sure I believe it myself. [ Or rather, he hopes he doesn't have to believe the people stuck here are capable of it. ] I'd rather not wait around and see, though.
[ YEAH, ESPECIALLY SINCE SHE'S STUCK IN JAIL, but at least he has the tact to not point that out. ]
The lock won't budge. [ So, that's a bust. ] We either need to find the key, or...find a way through the walls or floor. [ He nods at the floor. ] How solid does it feel beneath you?
I'll look around and see if I can find any explosives. [ Look, it'd be effective. ] Or the keys, if they're around. Will the sheriff bring you regular meals? I can bring you something to eat if he's not.

[You're her new favorite, Harry.]
I am afraid I do not know... when I woke up, I was already in here. But...but there must be a way to get out of this prison.

You haven't...committed any crimes recently, have you? Were you in this town before you woke up?

[RUDE.]
I am a perfectly upstanding citizen! I had done nothing wrong before being put into this place.
... I am afraid not, however. I do not even know what this town looks like. I woke in this cell.

So far, his key search hasn't turned anything up, which isn't that surprising. There is the rifle cabinet - maybe he could try shooting the lock off??
Fortunately, he has the common sense not to try that idea, instead taking one of the sheriff's pens. Maybe he can pick the lock with it. ]
That's strange. The rest of us woke up on a train. Has the sheriff spoken with to yet?
no subject
[She frowns, ducking her head.]
I would not trust that man, for any promises he makes.
no subject
He kneels down near the lock, unscrewing part of the pen to use as a lockpick. ]
Neither would I. [ A pause. ] Did he tell you we're here to murder each other?
no subject
But truthfully, even if I have been told this, I... it is so difficult for me to believe.

... All I suppose I am capable of doing right now is hoping for the best.

[Tiara??? Admittedly, it's not her first jail...break...
Life is hard when you're a constantly kidnapped damsel.]

And the walls?

For such a ramshackle town, this cell is holding up surprisingly well...

What are we to do?

[IT'S KIND OF OMINOUS.]
Still... thank you very much for your concern, sir.
