WEEK ONE

32 Guests

Maybe being swept away to a fancy castle isn't what you wanted (Hickey aside), but the fact of the matter is that you're stuck here, at least for now. Thankfully there's enough food even if hot chocolate for breakfast might be a bit rich for some palates. There's at least a stock of raw food in the kitchens, but your hapless kidnapper is a Witch, not a chef, so you'll have to perform your own, manual kitchen magic if the provided meals aren't to your liking.

Just try not to burn the place down before you get the chance to take your host at his word (that you'll be leaving in a week's time, certainly, trust).

If you do get the cabin fever immediately, the grounds are a beautiful reprieve from the great indoors -- and if nothing else, perhaps you can find time to get to know your fellow guests. The weather is gorgeous all week, cheerfully sunny, which lends something to the mood.

WEEKLY EFFECT

This week, characters will feel heightened emotions periodically. If they're very happy about something, it'll feel like the best thing in the world! If they'd usually brush off something mildly annoying, suddenly it'll grate on their nerves. This effect will last throughout the week until investigation and is completely optional.

[OOC: Welcome to Week 1! Despite the lack of any threatened murder (except in Witch's direction), there will be a case this week. We'll have a small optional event on Wednesday at 1PM EDT/10AM PDT, but it won't require real time threading and can be done over the course of the week. ]

( owen come get your mans before hwy drapes on this one )

Almost got you.

( He was wondering if he could trip up a wizard with the phrasing :} evil trait )

[oncefallen]

[No drinks for him this time.]

Unfortunately, my wings have been sealed along with the rest of my powers. I would be happy to show them to you otherwise.

[allrounder]

Is "winning" getting as many of us as you possibly can inebriated?

[ He wouldn't be surprised, honestly. ]

[oncefallen]

[He's drinking, and interestingly enough, the look on his face is verging on one of disgust...]

[simulacres]

Really? You look like someone who would be an honor student.

[ not that ayaka would really know what an honor student looks like. she understands what college is to a degree, but her own personal opinions are as vague as the reflection in the water.

the books are a mix of etiquette, theater, and some natural sciences. it seems like ayaka might just have grabbed whatever books seemed remotely eye catching without actually caring about the content. ]

What do you like to read?

[coldseep]

( a mischievous look )

Aren't things a little more fun when people have that many fewer inhibitions and that much more inclination to follow their instinctive desires?

[coldseep]

Why not? Why did you go...?

[coldseep]

Maybe when Witch has this all figured out, I'll be privileged with the opportunity.

( sipping his drinky casually...! )

I've never used wings to fly before - are your wings like a bird's?

[allrounder]

[ hey. hey hwylryn. why'd you have to say it like that hwylryn

G'raha's eyes widen, and he shakes his head. ]

I would not go quite so far...

[spotsalone]

But have you done something wrong? Amoral? Controversial? Emotions are not actions and you needn't apologize for them.

[remainsilent]

She insists it isn't that bad and... I don't believe anyone has it in them to disappoint her.

[allrounder]

For a myriad of reasons, none of which befit a delightful gathering such as this one.

[divineth]

[Wow!!! He's taking a sip though.]

[divineth]

Mayhap with the aid of magick...

[But he can't do it naturally, so he sips.]

[divineth]

[Damn, none of you are pulling any punches.

Taking a long sip...]

[oncefallen]

If you mean feathered, then yes. All angels' wings are like that.

[The primary difference being that his are black rather than the standard white of the other angels, but. Details!]

We usually keep them hidden around humans-- they stand out far too much if we leave them visible. The halos alone are more than enough to signal our true nature.

[remainsilent]

[ Dan Heng who looks like he's around 20 is drinking ]

[remainsilent]

[ not drinking ]

[remainsilent]

[ thinking about it ]

[coldseep]

( 🥺

🥺🥺🥺 )

... Can I hug you?

( he's a lil emotional and tipsy but he's also just like this normally )

[simulacres]

Well you guys can't keep lying to her to make her feel better.

[fourtuity]

[ That actually gets her to laugh. ] I think he'd say to take your advice in moderation!

But yeah, I don't see why not. I just hafta take hints when I need them.

[allrounder]

[ His ears twitch in surprise and he's clearly a bit embarrassed by the question, but... ]

If that is truly what you want...

[ Then go right ahead. ]

[fourtuity]

I'd cheer her on! I'm very anti-king-jerk-over-there. No good guy has trials like that.

[remainsilent]

We all have bets if it'll be March or Caelus that let's it slip.
