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.

What do you mean...? [He tilts his head at her.]

[ you know, Yuyuko was normally a responsible adult (relatively speaking). However, that didn't cover things like this. Like drinking. And even if she wasn't, they were all undead anyway. Not like the kid could shoot out his liver, here.

So unlike, oh, probably half of the others, she says no words of protest and merely floats over, trying to contain her laughter. ]


What is this 'Never Have I Ever'?
impheired: this morning. shut down airport security. don't tell me that your family is embarrassing. (stare ♚ my dad assaulted a tsa agent)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Are you actually stupid? Can you really not tell the fucking difference between juice and alcohol?

[HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO SEE THE BOTTLE TO KNOW, MAN...]
derepressed: (you bore me but food doesn't)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
It seems simple enough...

[She's just going to get some tea, because that is nice and non-alcoholic and if Ryou is so convinced that what he's drinking is juice, it's not going to be easy to convince him not to drink it (she's dealt with enough drunk friends in her time), so she'll just make sure she's sober enough to help him if something happens.]

Since it was your idea, do you want to start?
onethirdthesoul: anime (what?!)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
But it tastes like juice! [Ryou looks pretty shocked by this accusation! He would never drink, he's underage!

He holds out his bottle for Kuzuryuu.]
Here, you try it.
speakveryclearly: Kanaya looking down with shades on and a thin, grim glow. (Displeased)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-07-30 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
People will try to make you feel guilty...

[She looks at Chizuru and Yuyuko conferring, and straightens up from hanging her head.] I guess I can't stop you from trying to have fun. Just don't say I didn't warn you.
onethirdthesoul: anime (:D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
It's a word game, sort of... Well, it's a party game, I guess! [He's fumbling over his explanations a bit.]

Each player has a drink, and then you say "Never have I ever...done something I have never done!" And then everybody who's done that thing has to take a drink!
speakveryclearly: Kanaya stares up at Gamzee, who is grinning, with flat jade lips and resigned eyes. (Tolerance)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-07-30 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. The yakuza way of life is very... [She pauses, and makes a taxing diplomatic effort to form the right word around her fangs.] Difficult to understand from the outside.

I've been making an effort, but the merit of designating certain members as non-persons or "tools" still escapes me.

[Peko makes it sound like Fuyuhiko isn't the person to hold this against, sure, but her testimony about his character is not necessarily to be trusted given their situation.]
onethirdthesoul: anime (gesture talk)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it'll be easy for you to catch on I'm sure. [He hasn't forgotten that she's from Ye Olde Times, at least.]

Alright, sooo... Never have I ever...had a pet hamster!

You could have mentioned the being able to retire bit however.

[God she really thought you were all trapped in a cycle of endless killing!]

And not lied to me about trivia.

[She knew you were a little liar.]

Also the map!
onethirdthesoul: anime (:D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Eehh, you think so? Maybe Kouha-san... [Ryou's not quite that far gone. He's smiles again after he says it, though.] But I'll be okay!

Kanaya-san should play too.
derepressed: (this is me pitying you)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
[She's not Gundam Tanaka, so she's not drinking!]

Neither have I... um - never have I ever... [Oh gosh, this is harder than she thought.] Had a pet dog..?
onethirdthesoul: (three quarter 8D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Ryou beams at her encouragingly.]

Me neither! Never have I ever...liked oysters.
derepressed: (am i gonna graduate)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? You don't? [Her eyes go wide.] They're delicious, though...

[...oops, that means she has to drink. So she takes a sip of tea.]

Um! Never have I ever watched a movie... before coming to this castle, that is.
impheired: at my worst, then leave because i don't have a best. i'm always awful. (talk ♚ if you can't handle me)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
[No, he's not taking that. Keep your not-juice to yourself!!]

Just because it tastes like it doesn't mean that's actually what it is, dumbass. That's the shit you gotta be more careful of because you might not notice till it's too late. Like you have right now. Did you even read the bottle before you started drinking it?
onethirdthesoul: anime (gesture talk)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh, no... Oysters are the worst! [He sticks his tongue out, and then he takes a drink because he's totally watched a movie.]

Never have I ever...worn a woman's yukata! [Like the one Chizuru is wearing right now... Ryou, that's a cheap shot.]
onethirdthesoul: (gasp!)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'd know if it was alcohol...

[More juice for him, then. Ryou takes it back to drink some more, but then he pauses to look down at it instead. After a good minute of staring, he looks up at Kuzuryuu again.]

I can't read it, it's in English.
derepressed: (look at this shit. just look at it.)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe you just haven't had someone prepare them the right way?

[Oysters are a delicacy...! Chizuru pouts, though, and looks down at her yukata. Oh, unfair... but she sips at her tea again.]

Never have I ever... written a campaign for a game!

[They're targeted questions, but at least they're not malicious.]
mightiswright: (naruhobo)

[personal profile] mightiswright 2014-07-30 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... Is Ryou even legal

Does he even care I mean they're all dead already ]


Sure. But why don't we play with grape juice instead? [ Okay I guess he does care, since Phoenix will hold out a bottle of actual grape juice to Ryou... ]
ladyofthehouse: (.........)

[personal profile] ladyofthehouse 2014-07-30 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Austria will drink for that one. Mostly because she wants an excuse to drink. The dogs are actually Germany's.]

Never have I ever... [Wow this game is hard when you're a thousand years old.]

...ah. Had. A brother.

[Sorry Chizuru.]
onethirdthesoul: (gasp!)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
No way, oysters are definitely gross. [Sorry Chizuru, the alcohol has dampened Ryou's filters just a little.]

Ahh...you got me! [Does he even realize he was being targeted? He takes a sip.]

Never have I ever...worn a ponyta--wait... Yes I have. [He takes another sip.]
derepressed: (i know something you don't knowwww)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-07-30 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
...

[She looks down at her tea for a moment before taking a sip and smiling at Austria as best she can manage.]

Mm, good one. If you'd done that a week ago, I'd have told you I had a sister...

[RIGHT NOW SHE HAS TO THINK...]

Never have I ever... been able to play an instrument well?

[Kaoru was the lucky twin that got music lessons. :c]
impheired: so persistent with it, and i just wanted to run out of there in my backless gown and yell FUCK OFF BITCHES, I'M OUT (sulk ♚ he and the nurses kept being)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
I couldn't even admit to the existence of our group without fucking things up for all three of us. How the hell was I supposed to be able to tell you we could retire?

[No, Feferi is just a sweetheart and wanted to help!]

And what was I supposed to say about trivia? "Ah, yeah, I passed and I picked the map but I'm not sharing it??" Yeah, that would've gone over well. Not even remotely suspicious.
onethirdthesoul: (three quarter 8D)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-30 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
[He's 16... So not even close.]

You can drink the grape juice if you want, Phoenix-san. I never get to drink pomegranate juice at home! [It's always so expensive, and this stuff was really good. In fact, he's going to drink some more...]

Do you know how to play?
impheired: and i've already had like three mid-life crises. (facepalm ♚ i'm only seventeen)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-30 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
...trust me, it's alcohol. Just have to take one look at you to know that much.

[GOD, RYOU...]

And how the fuck can you not read it?! That excuse doesn't fly when we're all magically understanding the same language for some goddamn reason.
