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.
speakveryclearly: Kanaya looking over at something, not entirely satisfied, flickering. (Calm)

Whose? You all need to keep your strength up.
derepressed: (can i ask you something)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-08-04 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
..eh?

[THAT'S RIGHT... Feferi did say she had a friend who drinks blood, didn't she. Chizuru looks over and debates whether or not to speak up for a few moments before she finally says something.]

Um... if blood is something you need, it... wouldn't be the first time someone has drank mine. And I heal quickly, so...
speakveryclearly: Kanaya with unexpected pale hands on her shoulders, flickering a little like a headlight-captured antlerbeast. (Infected)

1/2

Really?

[That Chizuru would freely split herself open in a selfless fashion is predictable enough. To direct that sentiment towards Kanaya when some of Chizuru's best friends have dismissed them as self-righteous knights in shining armor is even more flattering.]
speakveryclearly: Kanaya, monochrome innocent in guilt, laps at violet neck puncture marks, holding their owner close. (Yandere)

2/2

[And then Chizuru comes up with an even more instantly endearing idea and Kanaya is turning back to Feferi.]

We're probably going to be really busy...

[She takes Chizuru's hand indicatively.]
derepressed: (i know something you don't knowwww)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-08-04 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, really. If I can help... I'd like to.

[Kanaya is probably the first person who will ever drink Chizuru's blood that doesn't want to kill her. Score!!

She giggles a little when she takes her hand, then looks to Feferi.]


Um - do you want to help us, Feferi-san? We're going to make food for everyone so we can take it to them once we get out of here.
tyrian: (and swim some more)

[Hey, she never dismissed Kanaya, she just got mad at Stiles for saying that Austria didn't accomplish anything when what she did actually meant a whole lot to the DKs.]

Sure! Does this mean I get to learn what compote is? [She still doesn't know...]
speakveryclearly: Kanaya cringes as she looks at something skeptically. Jade lipstick. (Doubt)

[personal profile] speakveryclearly 2014-08-05 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
...what is compote?

[This is the first time Kanaya has ever heard anything about it. Though it doesn't sound Japanese, presumably Feferi is expecting Chizuru to know the answer, so Kanaya turns to her.]
derepressed: (youuuu idiot)

[personal profile] derepressed 2014-08-05 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
...umm.

[Chizuru looks a little uncertain, herself.] I didn't get to read much of the recipe before Kuzuryuu-san [killed] interrupted us, but... I think it's some kind of a sauce with fruit?
