WEEK ZERO: WELCOME INTRO
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."
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.

Nah, it's not strange. Just different. [ which fits beau to a t so she's fine with it. ] I've just never heard it before. And I know a lot of languages.
no subject
You do? Which?
no subject
Uhh, let's see. Common, Halfling, Elvish, Deep Speech, Dwarvish, Undercommon... I wanna learn Celestial and Infernal, but I've been busy.
no subject
HER EYES ARE SHINING
SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE'S MEETING HER LIFELONG HERO]
Впечатляет! Beau is very cool! Like a hero out of stories...!!
no subject
Aw, I'm - nah. [ She sort of laughs, embarrassed, shrugging her shoulders, rubbing at the back of her neck. ] Nothing like that. Just a language nerd, I guess.
Besides, you know one I don't.
no subject
Учат! I will teach you - if you want to learn. It would make me very happy.
[she's so shameless]
But please teach Anya one too.

[tERRIBLE SHE'S SO SHAMELESS ABOUT WANTING TO LEARN but at least she'll temper it back]
Любимый? Do you have a favorite?
no subject
Man - Halfling's pretty fun? Dwarvish is probably closest to what you're speaking, I think. Either one, I'm fluent in both.
no subject
Where Anya is from, people would call me 'Half'.... So I think I would like to learn that one.
no subject
no subject
[though - she does lose some of her good spirits, thinking about it.]
Mm, but I feel whole... So I think it is okay.
no subject
Yeah, you're definitely whole. Fuck 'em if they call you half in a bad way. Being multiple parts like that is way better. [ Huff. ] Hey, tell you what. Let me do some research and later, I'll come teach you some words? I gotta see if there's any way out of here.
no subject
To be the first to say you are very kind... That sounds silly to me. Очевидный.... I think it is clear. Thank you... Your words make my heart warm.
[she should like
not be so carefree about her words but here we are!! she'll just curtsy again]
I will look too - but I will find you before we leave.
