graveyard pt ii

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.

I don't know.

[ She looks worried and even a little lost. How long's it been since they actually had a break? Weakness is imperfection though and those who get ahead in life aren't week. Rapture places a hand on her shoulder, suddenly instilled with confidence and assurance. Her friends being here helps with that. ]

We'll have more than enough time to figure it out!
derepressed: (oops now you know i want a harem)

Sonia-hime, then-- Eh?!

[What. WHAT. Chizuru's cheeks flush beet-red and she flounders for a few seconds.]

I - hope we can become good friends too... um...?
teenspirit: (drain you)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ They've been focused on this for so long that it's hard to look past it. ]

Mm, yes! Let's just close this out, for now... And see if we have the time to savor it.
teenspirit: (school)

1/2

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sonia blushes, too, but not in the same way. ]

That's... moe...!
teenspirit: (swap meet)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
I'm gonna get a sister complex for you, too... [ CLEARING HER THROAT ] Just Sonia is fine!
derepressed: (i hope you all die quickly)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-08-08 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Moe... sister complex... She's just going to file that away and try not to think about it too much for now.]

Um... Sonia, then! Thank you - for being a friend to Kaoru... I appreciate it.
teenspirit: (swap meet)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
You're welcome. [ Most people would say 'there's no need to thank me', but Sonia is not most people. She is completely sincere and sickly-sweet in all things, including this. Kaoru needed friends, okay. ] He's really a person of true valor. I am honored to know him.
respecting: (long as I know it's right)

[Beat smiles back. It's relieving to be trusted, even though they've just met. For him, who's been watching, it's like they've been comrades the entire time. ...And he might have a soft spot for Bakura because of his motives... but that's his little secret.]

Thanks, man.

Beat. I'm just Rhyme's older brother.

[but will she assume he means it in a cutesy pet way... anyway, he doesn't mind letting her do that.]

I been waitin' for this though. Meeting all of you and stuff.

[well their group had it planned from the beginning, so he'd been anxious even before they'd decided who the moles were going to be.]
speakveryclearly: Kanaya rendered in shades of blue, with a friendly smile on her face. (Princess)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-08-08 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'm really looking forward to getting out of here... [Sonia is one of the only people she can never lie to; her face is clear about how emotionally exhausting this has been. But, looking forward at the most kawaii currently dead demon:]

As of late, though, we've gotten a lot of help holding down the fort.
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 2014-08-08 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh hey, the dark gods are still alive. He was kind of wondering about that...especially with the whole virtual reality thing...]

[He shakes his head.]


Nah, I'm not the amazing one, it was only incredible because I had help. Yukimura, Peixes, Kagamine, and Austria...hell, even Tanaka, apparently. [THAT FUCKER AND HIS FAKE PRODUCER NOTE.] I couldn't have pulled it off on my own.
impheired: who drunkenly chipped his teeth on the sidewalk (unsure ♚ wise words from the guy)

[He is nothing if not capable of picking up on affection hidden behind harshness and/or insults. He does that shit ALL THE TIME.]

My condolences. [Three whole years with Gundam Tanaka... How did you all survive. How did Gundam survive.] Somehow, I'm not surprised. By either of those things, really.

[They would get married by hamsters...]
teenspirit: (smells like teen spirit)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
I am glad. How much had you let them all know?
teenspirit: (drain you)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ This is a second-generation dark god, progeny of the originals...! ]

Well, we're nowhere without those to rely on, are we?

[ She nudges the little hamster on Kuzuryuu's shoulder. ] And there's always time for new beginnings.
speakveryclearly: Kanaya chatting cheerily. Jade lipstick. (Approval)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-08-08 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
We were pretty open about our team by week six given the culprit that week, but the complication just came out yesterday. Went over better than I'd hoped...
impheired: who drunkenly chipped his teeth on the sidewalk (unsure ♚ wise words from the guy)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-08-08 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... [He trails off, still smiling a little. Until a thought occurs to him.] Oi, speaking of...since Hinata's on the run with the hostages now...does that mean we've left Souda and Owari alone with everyone in comas? How the fuck does this kidnapping bullshit even work?

[They somehow managed to kidnap his sister before she died?? So like...what??? DO THEY NEED TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS...BECAUSE THIS IS A VALID CONCERN, LBR.]
teenspirit: (breed)

[personal profile] teenspirit 2014-08-08 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
We cannot be sure. [ Yeah, the timeline stuff is... Well, it could be a bad thing or they could really use it to their advantage. ] I-I'm sure they won't be too incompetent with the others...?
humanic: (smile)

[personal profile] humanic 2014-08-08 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
[RUNNING OVER IN SLOW MO AND HUGGING TBH wow super cheesy]

I'm okay. Better than okay now that you guys are here. [Because Stiles really does not do well when separated from the people he loves.]
humanic: (unsure)

[personal profile] humanic 2014-08-08 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
Ow! [grumbling and rubbing his head like a baby] I was thinking that it would kind of suck if twenty innocent people died while I could do something about it, thanks!

And I missed you too. [no sarcasm here tbh HE MISSED YOU SO MUCH SUSAN IT WAS LIKE HAVING A SUPER SARCASTIC LIMB CUT OFF]
impheired: pissed yourself, and started crying. you never go above the kiddie level elementary school haunted house ever again (souda ♚ you had a panic attack)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-08-08 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Real talk though, Owari was almost Kuzuryuu's hostage. Let's stop and think about Souda being left alone on coma island for a minute and laugh.]

Surely... [Mostly he's worried about them panicking at being left alone, tbh. And if Owari decides to do something reckless, he is like 99% sure that Souda would not be able to reign her in because he's a wuss.] I guess we'll just cross that bridge when we come to it. No sense worrying about it right now.

[One thing at a time, here. Let's get out of murder castle first.]
inthebones: (Irritation)

[personal profile] inthebones 2014-08-08 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, well, it also 'sucks' when there isn't anyone to save the players when they refuse to vote and the entire plan goes down the drain.

The part where your head exploded ranks fairly high in the 'suck' as well. If you hadn't been brought here...

[She'll just trail off because expressing actual feelings means Susan might explode.]
inthebones: (Skeptical)

[personal profile] inthebones 2014-08-08 03:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I was actually hoping Sonia would be a good influence, but they seem to enable each other if anything.

[Not that they haven't all gotten used to it.]

Though... this is the first any of us have heard about therapy for murderers, though. It's a bit of a surprise if your friend hasn't had her memories tampered with.
inthebones: (Talk down)

[personal profile] inthebones 2014-08-08 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Susan. Susan Sto Helit.

I'm afraid I know all sorts of things about you already, so I'll apologize in advance if it makes you uncomfortable.
inthebones: (Default)

[personal profile] inthebones 2014-08-08 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
So nice and yet so empty-headed at the start..

[Susan murmurs.]

I don't think we ever blundered about quite so much though it's true we were harsh on our murderers.

[personal profile] throe 2014-08-08 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Our investigations and trials were a lot more... creative too. Practically everyone used the grenade and mystery box this time around. No locked room mysteries, no special hair powers...
