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 blinks at her, clearly confused.]

This kind of game.

[Hello my name is Pekoyama and we didn't play fun games like this at murderschool. We just murdered people.]
speakveryclearly: Kanaya with faintly upquirked lips and eyebrows at a whimsical Terezi. (Uncertainty)

It's reality television tradition. Never have I ever. Spin the bottle. Games that require no tools other than dramatic relationships between people.
onethirdthesoul: anime (what?!)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-24 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I just thought it'd be fun and that anybody could jump into it... [He really wasn't thinking that far into it!]
perfectstrike: (you... |本当に信じてるの?)

[personal profile] perfectstrike 2014-07-24 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
None of those sound enjoyable.

What on earth is 'never have I ever?'
speakveryclearly: Kanaya talking calmly, possibly reiterating orders. Jade lipstick. (Words)

You take turns announcing things you've never done and the score shifts based on whether the other players have or have not done them.
onethirdthesoul: (eh?)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-24 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
...I think you're supposed to drink something every time you've done something, too.
speakveryclearly: Kanaya jabbering snarkily. Jade lipstick. (Disapproval)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-07-24 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
That's one method of scoring.

[Immediately to Bakura,] You're underage.

[So according to her and Kuzuryuu's weird morals, you are Not Allowed.]

What is an example of something one would say?
onethirdthesoul: anime (what?!)

[personal profile] onethirdthesoul 2014-07-24 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
I-I didn't mean alcohol!! [Ryou will just be flustering in the background. He doesn't drink, okay. He is a fine upstanding young man, besides the whole murder thing.]
speakveryclearly: Kanaya reapplying jade lipstick, tainted with human blood, to her sparkling bloody face. (Preparing)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-07-24 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Never have I ever...

[everything that comes to mind is a form of violence at first]

Worn a necktie.

[...Kanaya is not very good at this]
perfectstrike: (you... |本当に信じてるの?)

[personal profile] perfectstrike 2014-07-24 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
...

Nor have I.

[??????? is this how this game is played Peko will take your word for it. Her scarf for her sailor fuku doesn't count.]
onethirdthesoul: (eh?)
