WEEK 1

WEEK 1


Your hosts have come and gone, and have left you with nothing but more questions and a key. Regardless of how you reacted or what you decided to do soon after that, it’s a fact that the day must end eventually.

And so it does, with the striking of the clock. As the twelve gongs reverberate and disappear into the night, the rest of the city is left silent save for a chilly wind that skims the streets. Those who have retired to their assigned rooms will find that the furnishings are decent enough to get a good night’s sleep, while those who wander the city will only continue to see empty streets and fog. But regardless of how you spend the night, eventually it will become readily apparent that dawn will not be coming any time soon as the waxing moon continues to hang in the sky even as the clock strikes six or seven or eight.

No one’s stopping you from wallowing in bed or holing up in a building during this perpetual night, but there’s a whole city out there to check out and some interesting additions to the Opera House decor; don’t forget though, a cage is a cage and every good cage needs its bars. While a portion of the streets and buildings are clear, any intrepid explorers won’t find themselves able to get very far through the fog that surrounds them; anyone who tries to venture through will end up getting turned around and end up right back where they started. Still, there’s plenty of other places to check, even if the fog-shrouded buildings are more or less off limits. Fortune favors the bold, after all.

[[Welcome to Week 1! Feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. You can also now privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt at your leisure!]]

She sounded like someone who wanted the last slice of cake but was too slow. But being a sore loser isn't any fun either. [ Says boy who was pouting a second ago. ]

But it's okay, I believe you Iago.

[can't tell if that's sarcasm or not..........]

Well. Good. You should! I have no reason to lie to you.

[this is just embarrassing...]

[ Pizza just beams. ]

So did you read mine, huh? Did you?

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-07 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately.

[iago don't be rude????]

Tell me about this princess.

[ He'll pretend he didn't hear that. ]

Kind, smart, beautiful, gentle to everyone....
puperoni: (2)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
That's the kind of princess, no person she was.

[ No one said she was alive. ]

...Oh.

[uh, hang on, give him a sec, that is sort of the last thing he was expecting here—]

I see. I'm sorry for your loss?

[THAT SOUNDS LIKE A QUESTION.......... look iago's bad at this, okay.]
puperoni: (2)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's okay, because despite Iago's fumbling attempts Pizza does smile a little. ]

Thanks. I'm no good at being serious or sad... so let's talk about something else, okay? Ask me another question, like what my favorite food is.
psychophant: (✦ 02)

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-07 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Very well.

[It's far easier to move on, and thankfully Pizza's on the same page there.]

What is your favorite food?

[...is it whatever "pizza" is..........]
puperoni: (5)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[ They're doing it! ]

I bet you thought it was cake, didn't you? [ He's talked cake with so many people. ]

But it's actually spaghetti! ★

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-07 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Cake was certainly a consideration, yes. Spaghetti, though... Interesting choice.

[i don't know if they have spaghetti in nohr but they do now]
puperoni: (1)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Why's that? I could eat spaghetti every day!!! [ Actually he would probably do so if they were in a situation where they could have whatever food they wanted. ]
psychophant: (✦ 40)

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-07 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Every day? Wouldn't you get sick of it eventually?

[That sounds like a terrible idea?????]
puperoni: (3)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I won't know until I try!

[ ...he might actually try this now if he can find someone who will indulge him. ]
psychophant: (✦ 04)

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-07 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[...]

Well, if you do find the means to make it here, let me know how that goes.

[this is really not something he should be encouraging, so naturally...]
puperoni: (1)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-07 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Does that mean you'll eat spaghetti with me? [ That sparkly look in his eyes is back again. ]
