Mesdames et Messieurs, Voilà, C'est Vous

[lesmodsalouette]

Bievenue

You're wrapped in a soothing, all-encompassing darkness.

Well, perhaps not perfectly all-encompassing -- you can see some slivers of light here and there, just enough to realize that your current space is literally wrapped in something, and that you are a highly customized burrito at the mercy of an entirely too fluffy bed and set of blankets. Moreover: you are definitely not alone.

Depending upon the contents of your bed (two of you, waking up dressed exactly in what you wore last you remember back where each of you came from, in the exact same state as those last moments no matter how illogical or disjointed), it may not be comfortable or feasible to stay cocooned up for much longer. There's a low, muted GONG, GONGG coming from not far away, your bed creaks like a beleaguered ship in an unannounced storm, and it is joined by even more noises of movement beyond the bed canopy as you try to take stock of where you are.

Eventually, you either fall out of bed or drag yourself into this world: your new and strangely crowded personal rooms, the clock insistently sounding out the hour, and the halls and heraldry of the venerable Château Ambregris -- a lavishly decorated and fully furnished version of a more-or-less authentic French castle (assuming you know what France or a castle are).

Left to your own devices for the moment, you may find it helpful to explore the castle for your own purposes, check out the suspicious statues and personalized plaques in the Promenade of Reflexion, or perhaps to try to get to the bottom of the mysterious and frankly alarming amount of bread piled up in front of the place settings in the Banquet Hall. (Were you thinking of escaping? Any attempts to leave the property will be met with no forward progress at all, treadmill style). There's just about every kind of loaf, roll, boule, baguette, croissant or even animal-shaped bread you can think of stacked in baskets. There's absolutely nothing else save for plain bread, but at least you won't starve.

[OOC: Welcome to Château Ambregris, a perfectly normal castle receiving perfectly normal guests. Feel free to ask any questions in discord! The NPC Meet & Greet will be later today, March 8 at 6 PM EST/3 PM PST.]

( u good.........................? )

... Did you want to have an affair before you die?

[snakeblood]

No! [ It's complicated. ] Absolutely not. It's gross.

[coldseep]

( amused... )

Affairs, or relationships?

1/2 save me face in hands

[snakeblood]

Sex in general! I'm still mad I haven't gotten any sleep because of those cockroaches next door!

2/2

[snakeblood]

[ No wait, he woke up though? He doesn't remember going to sleep. His face changes to utter confusion. ]

Wait, when I fall asleep?

[coldseep]

( this is the funniest baby who's about to die (title of his tiktok compilation about yoonhee) )

Maybe they stopped for a night?

( he assumes yoonhee is referring to like, real people getting down and dirty, but, )

[snakeblood]

[ People keep thinking he's funny, he's never gotten it because he's completely serious here??? ]

Nah, they stopped after I started yelling at them. [ Hwylryn is correct... ] Then we met up with someone who gave us a lead.... then we were driving... [ He guesses he could've closed his eyes? He had a lot of coffee in the morning though. ] We weren't in another car crash... Probably.

[coldseep]

What's a car?

( drive... ing ?? )

[snakeblood]

[ That stops his thoughts and he stares. ]

You're ancient and you haven't been in a car? [ Yoonhee's sheltered, to say the least, but he's been in cars. ]

It's a moving vehicle...

[coldseep]

( vehicle..... )

Like those cart things farmers use?

[snakeblood]

No, cars. C-A-R-S. [ Yoonhee is absolutely the wrongest person to explain to anyone about cars. He's only a passenger princess, he doesn't care about cars, nor can he drive...... ]

It's like if carts had 4 wheels and moved itself and you only have to tell it what direction to go?

[coldseep]

Oh, like magic.

Well, you don't seem dead to me, so I'm whoever was guiding it was doing just fine. Maybe you just dozed off.

[snakeblood]

I guess if you don't know how it works, might as well be. [ Honestly, same man. ]

Maybe. Would've rather have fixed him before he died though.
