Fine Food(?) and Music(???) Await You

[Well that was truly a heartbreaking matter, to say the least. But what follows will be important. If they crack now, there will be no telling what their future holds. So now, more than ever, it is important that they hold together.

Few seem prepared to rise to the occasion, so it is left to Olivert to prepare something truly spectacular.

As the room is prepared, he hums and serenades himself quite happily. It's a good amount of work but he doesn't seem to mind doing it himself, although he would never turn down a few extra hands if they wanted to assist.

The important thing is that the Opera House has been decorated with lights and tables and rose petals aplenty. Enough to brighten up their little gathering. Amongst the tables there is food, but considering at least some if not all of them were the prince's doing, perhaps a little caution may be in order. There is at least probably a fifty/fifty percent chance of it being an edible dish!

Outside there is a sign made up to draw their numbers in.

Tonight, a Grand Feast, to be shared amongst friends.
Everyone is highly encouraged to attend, though it need not be mandatory.
In the darkest hours it is important for the brightest lights to shine.
If necessary, tonight that light shall be me.
Wonderful music and food will be provided, you only need bring yourself.


Prepared by Olivert Reise Arnor.

Foolishness, that's what.

...I feel like there was an intent here, but someone should really explain... tact... to our host.

A situation like this could call for a wake or maybe a strategy meeting, not... a ball. What does he mean, 'music will be provided'? There should be no music on a day like this.

I'm not actually against music in situations such as these so long as it's appropriate music.

...

I'm not expecting much on that front, though. I do think we need more time to digest what happened before a strategy meeting, at the very least.

Does our host really look like he'd play requiems?

[ Sorry Olivert.... he's now hitting the low level of judging based on appearance. And on the rose petals. ]

But you do have a point there. The Lady is not likely to make us another offer right away, at least.

...fair enough, but sometimes people just may surprise you.

[...he still sounds doubtful though...]

And try not to say that too loud, I don't want her to get ideas.

[personal profile] inordertobelieve 2020-01-15 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
... I hope you're just saying this and don't actually have solid reason to believe she is observing us even now.

[ CREEPY IDEAS.... ]

...I don't have solid reason to believe that, I'm just not taking any more chances with her than I need to.

Well, it does seem like that caution will be to your benefit, all things considered.

I hope it will be, but... I'm not entirely sure how much it will help, in the long run.

[sigh.]

I'd rather not lose anyone, but at the same time, I want to know what our limits actually are.
