murder manor week zero



saturday

[Saturday begins much like Friday, with no further answers provided, and no means of escape. However, at 3 PM on Saturday, the old grandfather clock in the foyer begins to chime. From the foyer, the ballroom doors stand open, and the room is bright with sunshine. Soft, dreamy music plays from a radio inside.

Inside the ballroom, what seems to be a magnificent party is laid out. There is a buffet table laden with finger foods - vegetables and dips, finger sandwiches, pastries, fruit, and cheeses. Next to the table are glasses filled with wine, champagne, or juice. Most of the room is empty, with room to stand and talk, although towards the windows looking out on the courtyard are six tables with five place settings each, set for a larger meal.

And then there's a seventh table, at the back of the room, on which are thirty small notebooks. Inside, the notebooks appear to be some sort of album, with each page containing a picture of and information about your fellow guests.

After everyone has filed in, the doors shut and lock behind the final guest; the doors to the courtyard close as well. You'll have some time to talk amongst yourself, for it will be another hour of dining before anyone else appears]

This is an open mingle log for the welcome feast. Please tag one another. There will be NPC interaction in the post later in the day.

[ After she's finished with her food, she throws her head back with laughter. It's such a tragedy that robots know how to have more fun in this situation than humans do... oh, if only Minx and Riot were here. They would adore this. ]

I could lead you on assuring you that 'maybe you were a human in your past life?' The entire time it turns out that I'm just using you for my own gain, but then we have to investigate a "murder" together...

Ooh, existential angst, I like it. People will really feel sorry for me when they hear what you have to say about me behind my back... our rankings will both skyrocket! ♪

Backstabbing, deceit, conflict... [ She smirks. ] We'll certainly make an excellent pair and be the most entertaining contestants to boot.

[ This time she doesn't say a perfect match because... that didn't exactly go as she wanted to. Really, where are the proper music cues when you've got a Stinger involved? ]
