murder manor week zero



friday

[You wake in an unfamiliar bedroom, with no memory of how you came to be there and a sensation that something you once had is gone. The room you're in is luxurious and comfortable, but there is a musty feeling of disuse and decay in the air. Still, you've provided with new wardrobe perfectly tailored for you, a key ring that will unlock your bedroom door, so surely you're welcome to explore the manor?

Have a look around and make yourselves at home. You'll soon find you're not alone, but if any among you knows the secrets of this place, they aren't speaking.]

This is an open mingle log for arrival at the manor. Please put your character's name, location, and the time in the header of their comments. Characters are welcome to explore the manor and get to know one another; nothing else will be revealed to them today.

You say anything could happen like that's a universally good thing.

[Her hands are flat against the surface of her book, but she's started gripping it a little harder to the point that embossed portions begin to press against her skin.]

Not that I'm saying it's a universally bad thing either. [But fate is rarely on her side.]

Well if it really makes you feel better, I'm quite the psychic. And a very good one too.

[ Though it would help if she had her tarot deck or crystal ball, but... she's been in far worse situations without either of them. ]

If you're truly worried about being here... I suppose I can muster up something to ease your troubles. [ She smiles, still keeping her casual stance. ] I can't guarantee which "universal stance" it'll stick to though.

[Kanaya suddenly sits up ramrod straight and is staring at the older woman - again, too quick, supernaturally so. Psychics are a very real thing in her world, leading her to take Rapture's claim entirely at face value.]

Can you? [Very earnest, a little desperate.] I would actually greatly appreciate that.

[throe]

[ Upon her reaction, Rapture cannot help but smile. Somehow, with all that traffic cone orange make-up on her eyes, it manages to look sweet. ]

I can! The only problem is... ancestral tradition requires I ask for something in return. Usually it's riches and gold, but I suspect since you're here that you have neither of those.
