PROLOGUE ; MINGLE

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... PROLOGUE - WEEK 038 Narrators Remain ; Did you sleep well? Light filters into the castle on Monday morning. The birds are chirping pleasantly, the castle warms up with the rising of the sun, and the doors on the second floor creak as they open. Yes, that’s correct, the luxurious dormitories are now open to you all. Play nicely with all your suitemates please. You will find a gilded name plaque outside your room, along with another person's name...? Congratulations on your bed! Singular bed, that is, that you will have to share with your partner. Inside your room will find the promised book of rules for the war game. Make sure you read it carefully. Your life might very well depend on it, after all. In addition, you’ll find one item from home waiting for you. Does it look familiar? Should you choose to inspect the back of the door in your dorm common room, you will also find the full list of available titles posted. When you enter the dining rooms, you’ll also find the new addition of the tapestries. Hopefully it doesn’t share anything too damning or scandalous. Aside from the three Classics of the week that hang in the very front of the dining hall, all of them will line the walls, happily staring down at you as you eat. It appears as though no new doors to the outside have been generated, so hopefully you don’t go stir crazy. Anyone who finds themselves looking outside the window may notice the landscape subtly shifting. At times there appears to be a town right at the horizon, booming with life, visible in the day and glowing a warm light in the evening. These mirages don’t seem to last for a few more seconds, but the tune of flutes and fiddles may fill the hallways every so often. Wonder what that’s all about. Hello everyone! As of today, your characters will now be aware of all the given mechanics of the game, including: titles, objectives, partners, and character profiles. You may also begin utilizing Private Conversations. Please make sure to report all PCs to the linked post! Please stay tuned for a mini-event that will go live at 9 AM PST/Noon EST on Wednesday. full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

... Green is a good color.

[but maybe not

this particular shade

whatever it's hard to hide his laughter]

[doublecrows]

[NO!!]

I tend to prefer more. . . muted shades?

[alttitude]

Maybe they have... ahah, paints around?

[the laughter is sneaking out

who knows how much longer he can last as he steps closer to inspect the green..... this is funny,,,]

[doublecrows]

[JUST. slightly exasperated]

And how long after I repaint our room white again will it take for the Green Vandal to return?

[alttitude]

Well -

[as jae-ha says that

he notices the disco ball, glimmering, adding a gaudy touch of bullshit to the rest of the room

and he can't take it

he clutches his stomach and doubles over laughing]

Ahahahah!! This castle has it out for you!

[doublecrows]

[GRUMBLE GRUMBLE. . .]

Don't be ridiculous; the castle isn't sentient. It's obviously the work of one of our fellow captive guests.

[alttitude]

No? Then why do the doors appear and disappear?

[but sure, say it's one of the guests - ]

Are you off on a hunt now, Mr. Detective?

[doublecrows]

[don't argue against him with LOGIC, Jae-Ha!!]

Of course not. As. . . flamboyant as this is, I have to admit that if someone is having fun at my expense, that's a good. . . thing.

[he says, words strained]

Our situation is dire enough that I'm glad someone is able to find humor within it.

[SO. STRAINED]

[alttitude]

[dry as the sahara:]

You're soooo graceful.

[doublecrows]

[just. staring at Jae-Ha with this long, exasperated look]

. . . thank you for the compliment. I do try.

[alttitude]

You....

[ . . . .

he can't quite say succeed]

Well, as long as there's an attempt.

So do you plan on keeping the new decor?

[doublecrows]

I'd prefer to return everything back to its original state. The green kind of hurts my eyes.

[but?]

That said, I'm not sure where we start cleaning up.

[alttitude]

If you want to share the wealth, you can exchange the neon green in your room with some of the items in the common room.

["if you want to be pure evil"

whatever jae-ha's not in this common space!!]

[doublecrows]

[. . . . . oho]

What an excellent idea. After all, why shouldn't we share some of this lively furniture with the rest of the suite?

[alttitude]

[this just in akechi is pure evil]

Ah.... this is going to be so ugly.

What a warm living environment.

[doublecrows]

[why is anyone surprised also this is your fault jae-ha]

Hopefully the new decor will brighten everyone's moods, and not just my own.

[Akechi you were just complaining earlier wtf]

[alttitude]

[he's an angel!!]

You'll have to share the results of your little experiment. It sounds like quite a laugh.

[doublecrows]

If you stick around to assist me, you won't have to hear about the results secondhand.

[alttitude]

Hmm... Now I wonder if that exchange is worth it....

[doublecrows]

[WOW]

The labor won't be that intensive.

[alttitude]

Then surely it's nothing you won't be able to handle yourself, Mr. Detective. Exercise your brawn as well as your brains and all.

[doublecrows]

[PUNK]

It's rude to make a suggestion and then refuse to follow through on same.
