WEEK ZERO WELCOME MINGLE - OVERFLOW, YOU MONSTERS
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.

...... You're very good at this.
[ he's just watching out of mere fascination at this point. most of them don't bother to cook in the citadel since there are others who like- and honestly prefer doing so. missions tend to be more quick bites than for actual pleasure so honestly, there's never really a chance to now that he thinks about it. hm. ]
no subject
[ He slides the milk over first, slightly foamy on top with a spoon inside the cup in case Hori wants to squeeze more honey into it and stir it in. ]
You're still at the age where you can let others cook for you, so this is fine.
[ Hori is like. twelve, or something. ]
no subject
[ he's smiling into his drink though who knows if it's more from how nice this is or the irony that Horikawa is actually many times older than the majority of the people here. ]
no subject
You're welcome. I don't mind cooking for you if you want anything special not laid out during meals, so you can always ask.
no subject
I do appreciate it. It's much more [ .......familiar? ] what I'm used to than... [ gestures outside where all the fancy things are ]
no subject
Mm. In a strange place, people would rather eat comfort food than something fancy, even if it's good.
[ That said, he does eat the meals provided here since it's already there. But cooking for others is never a bother, and it keeps him occupied. ]
no subject
Yes, I agree. As much as I enjoy the idea of trying all these new flavors, there's something about having something familiar in a place so different.
no subject
[ Besides Kane-san. ]
no subject
Mm, I suppose knowing how those back home are doing but I guess that's much harder to accomplish.
no subject
[ "They're fine, they don't even miss you" but worded nicer
Bring this point up in another week and he'll lament alongside Hori, but for now, it still feels like he'd seen his classmates and everybody just the other day, and he isn't homesick. ]
no subject
[ which, you know on a base level he Knows but he still can't help worrying. WHAT IF KANESAN NEEDS HIM- ]
