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. ]

( He smiles... )

... I hope you can be happy with her.

[distain]

[Well she HATES this weekly effect that she doesn't even realize is happening because those words, which Andrew doesn't think she has even imagined, let alone heard, almost choke her heart in her chest.

Her eyes sting. She brings a hand to her chest, over that thing she calls a heart.]

To see her live happily...That's what I wish for.

[She will not cry in public, but the emotion takes her in such a fit that it's noticeable.]

[coldseep]

( oh no now he Needs to see them happy together, )

I'm sure she will. You love her so much, right? You'll make it happen. And you'll get to be there with her.

( He knows it's not that simple. His story, after all, did not end as such - love was not enough.

But he hopes it will be, for her. )

[distain]

[Her hand clenches, staying where she pressed it.]

Can you say that so confidently about people you have never met?

[coldseep]

( He smiles. )

I can speak confidently about my heart, and my heart wants the two of you to be happy.

( So maybe he's moved easily - foolishly - by a woman he barely knows; a woman he'll likely never meet; circumstances he hardly has the slightest clue of. Other dragons think he's strange. But he can't help it - he can't choose what he's moved by. )

And, besides . . . I'm much less certain about myself, despite all my love. How could I not admire the certainty of your feelings, and wish you well?
