graveyard

the theatre




You awaken in a darkened theatre.

In front of you is an enormous cinema screen. On it plays everything that's currently happening in the castle, 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. Under each seat is a sleeping mask and noise-cancelling headphones, in case you'd like to take a break from watching the show.

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.

Past the hall is another door, this one wooden and seemingly decayed. If you go inside, you'll find a fairly simple, wooden room, that is empty except for a very large machine. It is difficult to tell what the machine is for; it has a touch screen that appears to be a control panel, as well as a large open space that seems to be part of the machine, but the machine is dead and won't turn on no matter what you do.

Still, at least you aren't alone here. You have your fellow players, as well as a few guests to keep you company.

Oh, and one more thing. At midnight following each execution, once all those who've died that week have woken up, a video will begin to play on screen.

[Ryou slowly nods his head, taking in what she says, but mostly trying to push all those worst-case-scenarios out of his mind. He really was scared, for Chiaki, for Wriggle, for Rin and himself, for everybody.]

I know, I'm trying. It's just that after everything that's happened, I... I'm scared.

I think... [Austria looks thoughtful.] being able to admit something like that so freely is something that's quite brave in and of itself Herr Bakura.

Maybe some part of all of us are a little scared of how this could turn out in the end. There certainly are a number of things that could still go wrong.

But. When we're in the predicament we happen to be in, where there's nothing here for us to do to affect things there-- it might be better for all our sakes if we just try to couple our fear with the belief that they'll succeed.
onethirdthesoul: (solemn)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-29 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
You think so...? [He didn't feel brave at all honestly, but he'll try to take what Austria says to heart. She's his elder and he does respect her even despite some of the rough patches they've had.]

I wish we could do something here. [Ryou smiles a little sadly, thinking that even if they could help, he probably wouldn't be any.]

But I think you're right, Austria-san. If we can't do anything else, the least we can do is believe in them. [He looks down into his lap again.] I always did believe in them, even if it wasn't as much as I should, it's just so easy to feel overwhelmed.

[Long after Kuzuryuu's spoken to everyone else, Ryou approaches.]

Hi, Kuzuryuu-kun... [When he'd though the killer had went for four people, he'd been mad, but seeing Kuzuryuu's logic behind what he'd done... He can understand it, really.

Feferi and Chizuru didn't seem upset, and Nanami was safe because of him. The hostages would have been too.]

Hey, I got the pattern! I just...assumed the wrong thing about it... [He thought the audience was voting for people they felt sorry for...or something. BECAUSE DEAD IS DEAD. Look, he at least gets half credit for noticing the pattern, even if he attributed it to the completely wrong source.]

[He follows her deliberate glance with his own eye, though he has to turn his head a little to actually see Peko.]


'course I'm grateful. Why wouldn't I be?
impheired: because it has 2x as much ass as any other word. (happy ♚ i like the word assassin)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
[He is still so buttmad about the hostage thing and he always will be. Fuck you, producers. He followed your fucking rules. At least he's no longer buttmad about Bakura's murder though!]

Long time, no see.
impheired: a fucking mess & now i'm a fucking mess but at peace with it and with cooler fashion sense (happy ♚ five years ago i was)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, true. I'd hate to take away something like that from the producers.

[They deserve so many punches. SO MANY.]

You're welcome. [You have no ida how good if feels to finally be able to say that. No idea.]

... [Ryou lets out a sigh that drifts into a quiet laugh. He's just realized something.]

You and Peko-chan have a lot in common, Kuzuryuu-kun. You both seem prickly and hard to approach, but deep down you're both caring people.

[Ryou no dON'T EMBARRASS HER IN FRONT OF THE BOCCHAN. She really wants to protest because she's nothing like Kuzuryuu?? He's the young master and she's not. Obviously.

Instead settle for a slightly-embarrassed glare over Kuzuryuu's shoulder. Ryou no.]

Nope. Not taking it back.]

Never Have I Ever

[Ryou might have gotten himself a little tipsy. He thought he'd been drinking pomegranate juice, but it had actually been pomegranate rum. By the time he started to wonder why he was feeling so ditzy, he already decided he didn't care--and that he had a great idea for a game!

Ryou waves from the back of the theatre, more bubbly than he's been in a long time.]


Hey, hey, you guys! Let's play a game. I've got this...pomegranate juice. It's really tasty! So we should play Never Have I Ever!!

[He plops himself down on the floor and draws his bag into his lap, pulling out a few bottles.]

[Intensely concerned.] Ryou, we have discussed this.
derepressed: (oops i told everyone okita is sick)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
...um.

[On the one hand, it's good to see Ryou looking more energetic. On the other... yeah, no, she's seen her friends come back from Shimabara often enough to tell that he's drunk.]

Are you sure that's... okay?

[EYEING THE BOTTLES WARILY... but she sits down next to him because someone needs to be a responsible adult, here. Maybe she'll play along and make sure he doesn't get too far gone.]

Huh? [Still smiling. And laughing, for some reason.]

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ehhh? Why wouldn't it be Chizuru-chan-san? [He drinks some more of the "juice".]

It's really good!! And we should play more games together, I'll teach you--it's easy!
speakveryclearly: Kanaya, bitterly pale, frowning over being pushed away and ignored by Rose Lalonde. (Rejected)

Targeted questions are an inevitability!
derepressed: (i'll be polite now i promise)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
...

[What even are those honorifics... Ryou definitely needs an adult. So Chizuru nods.]

Um - sure. I'd love to learn to play, Ryou-kun.
onethirdthesoul: (8D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Okay! So, first things first...

[He places the bottle in front of him.] You need a drink. Then, second things second... You have to make a statement! Like "never have I ever eaten raw meat." Then everybody who has done that has to take a drink. Understand?
impheired: i’m gonna roll my eyes too hard and go blind. (stare ♚ one of these days)

[Just...staring at that "juice"... Ryou...Ryou, no.]

Dumbass, that isn't juice...

[Definitely not juice.]

[ That would have been one hell of a conclusion to the trial... ]

A little of A, a little of B. [ ... ] Mostly B.

I knew you had to have something up your sleeve. I thought to myself, there's no way Kuzuryuu would go after both Chizuru and Feferi without a very good reason. [ And Nanami totally counts congrats!! ]
onethirdthesoul: anime (:D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
No, it's pomegranate juice!

[Smiling cheerfully at Kuzuryuu~ It's definitely juice.]
