murder manor - reunion

murder manor reunion




[You are in a darkened theater.

In front of you is an enormous cinema screen. On it plays video of the manor, accompanied by appropriate sound effects and background instrumentals when fitting. The seat you're sitting on is large and plush, and while there's many of them, there's enough room in the theatre for you to fully recline the seat into a comfortable bed if you wish.

Follow the stairs up and you'll reach what should be the projection room. There are no projectors in here, however; it is simply a large and well-lit room above the main seating area, and a good place to hang out with your fellow eliminated contestants if shouting at each other across the aisles proves too much to handle.

If you leave the theatre through the door in the back, you'll find yourself in a hall. On one end is a concession stand. It's stocked with standard movie snacks - popcorn, candy and the like - but if you're feeling the urge for something else, you'll be able to find it stocked somewhere in the back. On the other end is a table with thirty wrapped bags and a placard reading 'A star for our stars! Please accept these lovely giftbags as a token of appreciation for your hard work, sponsored by [illegible smudge]'. Each bag has a tag bearing the name of someone in the mansion; you will only be able to open the bag with your name on it. As soon as you open it, any memories that have been taken from you, including those of the other people in the mansion that you may have forgotten, will be returned in their entirety. Within the bag are also objects from your home that you may want for your stay here, though you will find no weapons.

There are no other doors in the hall save for the one leading back into the theatre room. There are also no windows; it is impossible to tell where you are and what is going on in the outside world. Any attempts to break out will fail. So in the meantime, why not sit back and enjoy the show?]


Murder Manor reunion week has begun! The next week will take place outside the game (and will not be remembered by the living characters). Once the week is over, the living characters will be right back where they left off, Sunday night in the manor.

All the dead characters and eventually all living characters will participate in this week, through Belarus and Yuzu will just be empty shells who cannot interact with the others. Dead characters (except Lithuania, who never arrived) will all be in the theater from the beginning, whereas living characters will only be brought in once specifically introduced, and will be given their memories at that time.

During the times when Doris is taking questions, characters will not be able to talk about things that are 'off topic.' They can talk and reunite with one another, but need to focus on things relevant to that week or topic of discussion. Any time they get off topic, they will find themselves stuck trying to make the words come out of their mouth and will simply trail off. There will be breaks where characters can talk without this restriction, but the same will happen to anyone who, at any time, starts trying to talk about anything to do with there being a Mastermind or player to benefit from the game or planted player who isn't Lithuania. Codes and other attempts to get around this rule will still result in trailing off.

[All that comes out of Lithuania's mouth, at first, is fractured and stunned Lithuanian. But he corrects and repeats himself more understandably after a moment.]

That's not--Miss Susan is fine! It was... [Trailing off... But now he's back and he's angry.]

What is this?

( Spain has the exact same reaction, though, with much less cursing. His brow is furrowed and he looks at the screen, at Lithuania, at the screen, everyone, and then Lithuania again like

Are you seeing this?
)
vytis: (Default)

[personal profile] vytis 2013-11-28 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
[I know, right? Lithuania is getting more angry by the moment.]

This didn't happen.
inthebones: (Unsure)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-11-28 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Not having seen any of the preceding strangeness, Susan simply blinks with a vapid expression for a few moments before coming to herself with a shake of her head.]

It was a bit upsetting, actually. I don't see why he had to leave such a nicely apologetic letter behind, but I suppose he couldn't leave for good without personally victimizing me one more time.

...

You know, if this is supposed to be a dream, there really ought to be chocolate somewhere.

[Susan frowns and rummages in her bag for a few moments before pulling out a box of truffles.]

Ah, here we are. All set for the subconscious world, then.
vytis: (you're somebody else)

[personal profile] vytis 2013-11-28 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
M-Miss Susan! [Lithuania is super distressed but much less blown up today!] Did you see that video?

...Also, I don't think this is a dream.
inthebones: (Headtilt)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-11-28 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Of course it's a dream; you're not strewn about the room in pieces and caught in my hair.

[Given that this is a dream, there is absolutely nothing wrong about opening the box and popping a truffle in her mouth. Ah, good - cherry.]

What 'video' was this?
vytis: (Default)

[personal profile] vytis 2013-11-28 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
The video that says that I killed you, instead of... [Wow this censorship is annoying.]

You're not dead. [That's the point here okay.]
inthebones: (Skeptical)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-11-28 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
...Did you kill me?

[She seems to seriously consider this for a few moments while rolling a chocolate around in her mouth.]

No, that wouldn't make sense, unless the you that exploded was a decoy. Didn't we just reveal that you weren't -- .......

I mean, after the Hos -- ........

When you -- .......

[A sharp frown and vigorous, distressed, chewing.]

What's going on here?
vytis: (Default)

[personal profile] vytis 2013-11-28 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
This place is playing games again. [And Lithuania can properly express how much he really hates this entire reality show premise in his tone, finally.]

They're going to execute me at some point, though, apparently.

[HUFF.]

[personal profile] souredsweet 2013-11-28 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaoru is looking on with mild jealousy!! damn you Susan and your little truffles too.]

Everyone else got such nice bags... [which is clearly the most important part about any of this, and not the patched together, falsified footage playing in the background. he's definitely keeping a close eye on that as well, though.]
inthebones: (Default)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-11-28 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[At Kaoru's complaints, Susan opens the box againand very carefully examines each of the chocolates before thrusting it towards him.]

Three across, four down. The one with the white swirls on top. You're quite welcome to it.
souredsweet: jackandtink (where it begins)

[personal profile] souredsweet 2013-11-28 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
[he will accept the box with grace! and a somewhat amused smile.]

Your least favorite? [but hey he won't overlook it, his bag has just been spitting out rude hairclips and flutes and snacks that he can get at the concession stand just as easily.]
inthebones: (Superior)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-11-28 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
It sticks going down, much like your honeyed words do now when I bring them back to mind. I thought it appropriate.

[This isn't really spoken with rancor so much as it is Susan being Susan, though.]
souredsweet: mewtube (overexposed)

[personal profile] souredsweet 2013-11-28 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaoru seems to get a kick out of it one way or another... weeks of living among the dead without having to pretend has pretty much stripped the last of his tendencies to censor himself.]

Surely it isn't that bad, thinking back on those things. [handin the box back once he takes the indicated chocolate out.]

This is a pretty scintillating dream even for you, Susan.

[ She looks like she wants to say something else, but something's preventing her. ]
inthebones: (Talk down)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-12-02 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
My dreams tend to be exceptionally dull and ordered and filled with things like students managing to commit the 12 times tables to memory, but perhaps all the murders have rattled my mind a bit.
throe: (GL▲SS †33†H)

[personal profile] throe 2013-12-02 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe you figured you needed a little more glitz and glamor in your life. [ She motions to the theatre. ] It's very impressive.
inthebones: (Irritation)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-12-02 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Or maybe my subconscious decided that my life had become so ridiculous that it might as well be extravagant fiction from now on.

...Or perhaps we're sharing your dream. Have you performed yet?
throe: (oOoOO)

[personal profile] throe 2013-12-02 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, earlier on. I was the second one to get here I think, after Annie apparently, but they played most of my performances in the manor then let me perform with music.

If this were my dream though, the Stingers would be performing together. Not solo.

Wow. Poor Susan.

I like, totally won't be able to recover from this devastating loss.
inthebones: (Superior)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-12-02 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
How strange.

Those were my exact sentiments upon discovering your death.

[personal profile] notyetlost 2013-12-02 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I could tell from your face.

I thought you were going to like crumple to the ground and start pounding it with your fists in a hysterical fit.

"No! Not Poland! He was too fabulous for such a tragic end, oh why didn't they take the way less fabulous me!"
inthebones: (Talk down)

[personal profile] inthebones 2013-12-02 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
Don't be absurd.

I was too busy weeping piteously to be expected to maintain such precise control over my body. It was all I could do not to wail for twenty four hours straight.

((Sorry for being so absent! I responded to the Congeniality thing by the way if you want to do that.))
