WEEK ZERO: WELCOME INTRO

[cluedin]

WELCOME

Even from behind your eyelids, the soft glowing light can be seen as you find yourself awakening. The slow swell of strings begins, and as you struggle to open your eyes, the sound of footsteps pass you by. You soon hear three feminine voices speak in unison.

"Master Blue wishes to welcome you all. We hope you enjoy your stay!"

Light temporarily blinds you as you look around, but the source of the voices has vanished. Whomever has greeted you seems to have disappeared without warning, leaving you all alone.

The music starts up and though no orchestra is present, the song can be heard all throughout the room. Crystal chandeliers hang above your head, and the waxed wooden floor gleams brightly. Floor to ceiling windows cover the back wall and a night sky full of stars twinkle back at you. The wall next to it, however, is covered by a thick crimson curtain. Those who attempt to move it will find they have little luck in their endeavor, but there are more pressing matters at hand.

Looking down you'll come to notice that you're wearing clothes that certainly aren't what you were previously wearing. You, and the guests around you, have been dressed appropriately in formal attire properly fitted for each individual.

Oh. That's right. Didn't we mention the other guests? Seated to your left, right, and across from you at the long banquet table are other people just like you. Perhaps it's a friend you know, though don't be surprised if it's a complete stranger. Each individual holds a blue and silver invitation with their name scrawled upon it, and a message to follow.

"Please respond to Master Blue's invitation at least one week prior to the event to secure your seat and accommodations.

This dinner is guaranteed to be an event to die for."

Strange, isn't it?

But rest assured! Nothing is stopping you from leaving the ballroom and exploring the other rooms of Master Blue's home. After all, you're an honored guest! It's with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that you're welcomed here tonight. Really, what's your hurry? It's not as though the front door will open for you. Don't bother with the windows either. They've all been locked tight to ensure you're all nice and cozy for your stay.

If you look under your seat, you'll find a special gift bag with your name on it. Opening these bags will reveal the following:

-A small spiral notebook
-A crayon in a specific shade of blue
-Three different candles
-A brass key (Design May Vary.)
-This cute toy

A welcome gift from the Master, of course.

Take some time to admire the decor, if you will. The house has been decorated for this special holiday with chains of paper hearts, miniature golden cupid statues, and confetti that rains down from the ceiling on occasion. Perhaps you'll get lucky tonight with love in the air, especially since Cupid's arrow seems to aim for you no matter where you go. For those of you who don't wish to partake in the lavish feast spread out in the ballroom, you're in luck. Boxes of chocolate and bowls of candy hearts can be found for all your snacking needs.

As the unseen orchestra plays on, it seems as though you've no choice but to get to know your fellow guests and make yourselves comfortable. Perhaps if you wait long enough, someone will come to greet you.

[soba]

[ hewwo he is wearing this. including the barrette. ]

a. arrival

[ well! sometimes you suddenly end up in a completely new location. it happens? totally normal?

although when toi notices he is somewhere unfamiliar, he stands up very suddenly, knocking over the chair he was on. he might also hit whoever is next to him or behind him? it's an accident but like, he's surprised. ]

Wha--

[ hopefully he didn't get you in the face ]

b. conservatory

[ or you can find him in the conservatory!! he tries to open the curtains a few times, before going (anna voice) tch when nothing happens.

so, of course, the next course of action is to pick up a chair and just slam it against the covered window with all his strength!! it doesn't work!! actually, he just falls over, and confetti pops out!! exciting.

anyway maybe he accidentally hits with you with a chair. there's a lot of violence in my prompts. ]

a

[kazokun]

[ Ayabe gets hit in the face. He hasn't even had time to take off his ugly hat yet but it falls off when Toi flails at him. ]

Hey! Calm [ the fuck ] down!

[soba]

[ oh

well, he turns around to look at ayabe, and just frowns when he doesn't recognize him. he also doesn't apologize. ]

Who are you?

b

[constellates]

[i've decided it'd be funny to have anya say fuck but only in russian and only because she's about to be violently hit by a chair

which is to say]

Блядь?!

[she too falls over]

[soba]

[ i hate you so much

but i guess they're both FALLING DOWN this is a terrible meeting ]

Hey! Watch it!

[ you knocked her over ]

b

[voidbreaker]

[ nah son, he's stood far enough back to not get brained with a chair and kickstart the murder part of this murdergame a week early.



but he does give a round of applause when the confetti explodes everywhere. nicely done. ]

[soba]

[ bitch

he turns to look at him ]

Stop clapping.

b

[gardens]

[ Nia just... Side-steps getting hit by the chair. But she seems happy to witness this violence? ]

Perhaps with something more sturdy?

[ Wicker chairs seem weak! A dining room chair would have a stronger impact! ]

[soba]

[ hmmm

he glances at it, then at her. ]

You can try.

b

[oathic]

[well he's going down goodbye]

[soba]

[ goodbye forever ]

Watch it!!

b.

[survivaltricks]

[totally getting hit with that chair, yeup. and here he was just trying to take a look around the place!!!]

[a startled and pained cry and Akira goes down flat on his back like a LOSER]

[soba]

Shit...! Why is this so hard?

[ toi lands on top of akira

thanks ]

b

[seasiren]

[No she's not getting hit but that's only because this young woman was reclined against the wall, watching his endeavors.

Which fail, shame that. She shakes her head a little]

No luck then? Pity, I was hoping for your success.

[soba]

This shit is reinforced.

[ probably

he doesn't actually know, it just makes him feel better ]

b

[goldpeony]

[first of all, SHUT UP. second, nice outfit nerd says the boy in (gestures at crop top thing and weird flamboyant coat)

Toi throws the chair, falls down, and confetti pops out. After a moment, another chair flies right by Toi to hit the covered window, but alas, the same thing happens. Confetti.

He puffs and huff.]

Dammit.

b

[miscakes]

[











yeah he's getting hit with the chair.

HE'S GOING DOWN.

HE'S YELLING TIMBERRRR...]

b

[slobjection]

[ to sate francy's bloodlust, he's definitely getting beaned in the chair. ow. ]

I think those are meant to be sat on.

[ thanks phoenix. ]

b.

[madburnout]

[Just.


Watching??? Hm.]

That is not working.

[Helpful.]

conservatory

[pornography]

[ casually sliding out of the way as the chair bounces back and then looking between him and the window ]

Got that outta your system?

b

[brokethefirst]

[it's been like 5 seconds why have we descended into anarchy and destruction :(

Luna rounds the bend into the conservatory and has about .5 seconds to enjoy the flowers on the tables before the cracking sound of the chair instantly grabs her attention. Down the boy goes. Luna frantically patters over, trying her best to hoist her massive skirt out of the way as she does so.]

P-please, don't do anything so drastic...!

Are you okay?

conservatory

[recrypt]

[ sealclapping.gif

ok it's more like very rapid golfclapping, but. ]

Maybe try one of the other windows, you might have more luck?

b.

[burningrescue]

[He is almost hit with the chair, but he barrell rolls out of the way? He literally drops to the ground and it's unnecessary.]

Trying to get the windows open, huh?

b,

[getdrekt]

[Rather than being annoyed, Asch is watching Toi's progress (?) with great interest.

When the chair ricochets away, he sidesteps it with his own tch.]

Ridiculous.

They can't have thought of everything.

b

[gitalong]

[ the chair goes right over him. because he's a tiny dog. the confetti is very exciting though! ]

Oh! Oh!!! How beautiful! How fun! Do it again, do it again!!!!
