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.

[ Later... this can be tagged later after the other thread, but either way, Ayabe is sure as hell going to be coming up from behind Chuuya emitting murder vibes. ]

What are you doing.

[ At least draw a cute dog. ]

later is now lol

[shortforever]

Telling the world what Dazai is like.

[He's proud of his drawings ok]

[kazokun]

Charming. Say it with your words instead of defiling the wall.

[ A dick. Ayabe doesn't know Dazai that well, and so he can't really defend him. He will defend this wall, though. ]

[shortforever]

What is it with you and keeping walls clean, huh? This isn't even your house.

[kazokun]

Because it's not my house. This is somebody else's living space, not a play pen.

[ He unfortunately has manners when it comes to houses. But rudeness when it comes to people ]

[shortforever]

[He just looks. So confused.]

But why?

[It has succeeded in getting him to not draw on the wall, though.]

[kazokun]

Why- Why what? Why would you want to dirty a place for no reason?

[ ??? You're the confusing one here, Chuuya. ]

[shortforever]

It's not for no reason, it's to make fun of a loser.

[He's jabbing his thumb at Dazai's name, as if that proves his point.]

[kazokun]

It's not his house, though. If you want to mess with him, go to his house and draw on it. Draw on his face instead.

[ Leave this wall alone. ]

[shortforever]

I can't draw on his face with crayon!

[kazokun]

You can if you [ aren't a coward ] try hard enough.

[shortforever]

How about I draw on your face first and we can see how that turns out.

[kazokun]

As if I would agree to that. There are pens downstairs. Just take one of those and defile Dazai's face.

[shortforever]

Yeah? Where downstairs, in that library?

[He is totally gonna go grab one, yes.]

[kazokun]

The room next to the library. I'll show you.

[ As if Chuuya needs help finding the library again, but who knows, Ayabe's already shooing him away from the door/his precious wall. ]

[shortforever]

[You say that like he's not going to draw on other walls.

Okay but no, he'll behave himself. A pen is better used on Dazai's face, after all.]

[kazokun]

[ Letting Chuuya know where the pens are was a mistake. Hopefully Plum will keep the graffiti down so Ayabe doesn't have to keep getting on Chuuya's (and Babo Kim's) case on defiling the wall, but for now, he'd rather somebody else's face be used as a canvas instead of the architecture.

Down the stairs and down the hall, he leads the way to the study- to the large desk in the back with a little container of fountain pens right on the desk. ]

Your choice of colors.
