KNIGHT GROUP A

[dramatispersonae]

You're in a wide, bright room with beaten copper walls. The ceiling is a frosted glass dome etched with leaves and thorns and flowers.

There's a table with some sheets of paper and a brilliant red quill pen with a very sharp, fine tip; it's only warm to the touch, but that tip scorches words into the paper rather than using any ink. Testing it on your skin might not be wise.

Another copper bird sits on the table with the papers, and serves as the quill stand.

PART ONE

[dramatispersonae]

Some beautiful flowers appear on the table. They are about the length of your thumb, made of clear glass, and when you look at them you know their names.

• trillium


• aster


• love-lies-bleeding


• lily of the valley


• dahlia


• lady's slipper


• something that looks like a chrysanthemum, except every petal is pointed and razor-edged.

Firebird's voice comes from the copper bird: "Please pick a flower to represent yourself! ♪"

...but they're flowers.

Re: PART ONE

[fairlyheroic]

I don't think I recognize most of them.

Re: PART ONE

[hunting]

[Ooooh so pretty. Might be examining.]

Re: PART ONE

[fairlyheroic]

Flowers . . .

Re: PART ONE

[floorcandy]

Is it okay to pick one that just looks pretty? I don't know anything about flower symbology...

Re: PART ONE

[brotagonist]

They're symbols?

Re: PART ONE

[hunting]

Does it matter? We can make up our own.

Re: PART ONE

[bigbosshard]

...Guess it'd have to be that last. A regular flower...it just doesn't suit.

Re: PART ONE

[hunting]

The dangerous one?

Re: PART ONE

[fraternaldevotion]

. . .

[what Lloyd said]

Re: PART ONE

[brotagonist]

You could throw the sharp one at someone.

Re: PART ONE

[ganbareist]

Huuh... I don't really remember what these mean.

Re: PART ONE

[fairlyheroic]

No idea at all?

PART TWO

[dramatispersonae]

A warm breeze comes from nowhere, rustling the papers. The quill pen tilts in its stand.

"You have chosen your parts. Now, decide on your plays! Think of five scenes among yourselves, between twos or threes -- or perhaps alone, if you truly wish. Happy or sad? Angry or calm? Secrets or none? Free your imaginations!

Remember, though, that each flower must act at least once, and so then must each of you."

((ooc: silly hypothetical scenarios! you are coming up with them! but use the flower names rather than knight names; i.e. if Axel picked the lady's slipper and Saix picked the dahlia and you want them to make faces at each other you can suggest "Lady's Slipper gives Dahlia a heartfelt love confession." if you cannot read Firebird's voice will read off the papers for you; if you cannot write speaking to the papers will work too.

one to three knights per scene, and it is okay for one person to be in multiple scenes as long as everyone gets to act at least once. please use your discretion and try to spread it out ♥))

Re: PART TWO

[hunting]

... Our parts?

Re: PART TWO

[brotagonist]

. . . more performing. . .

Re: PART TWO

[fraternaldevotion]

. . . Do you want to do something?

Re: PART TWO

[floorcandy]

Oh, skits!

Re: PART TWO

[bigbosshard]

Uh...maybe I should play a box...

Re: PART TWO

[fraternaldevotion]

[. . . why . . .]

Re: PART TWO

[fairlyheroic]

[omg :D]

Re: PART TWO

[ganbareist]

Hmm...

Dahlia is a normally a proper faithful wife, but has feelings for the playboy Aster, who's decided to seduce her.

Something like that?

Re: PART TWO

[fairlyheroic]

[hmmm, looking around]

I've got one~

Trillium and chrysanthemum are long lost lovers finally reuniting for the first time in years.

[FINAL SKITS]

[brotagonist]

Skit 1: Things get bloody when Love-Lies-Bleeding finds out about his wife Dahlia's affair with Aster. Will their marriage — or anyone involved — survive?

Skit 2: Life isn't easy for Aster's wife Lily Of The Valley, either. Now that the war is over, his former childhood friend-turned-bitter-enemy, Lady's Slipper, is here to continue their rivalry — and get both him and his husband in bed.

Skit 3: Lily Of The Valley and Lady's Slipper aren't the only reunion in the box! Trillium and War Chrysanthemum's relationship is unclear, but at the very least, they're two good friends meeting again after the war.
