Room 3



You find yourselves in a well acquainted parlor while the storm rages on outside. Mother's voice resounds from somewhere unseen.

"Dear Mother will be with you in a moment, my children. But until then, please do try to become well acquainted with one another."

[You'll find a small dance card tucked into the pocket of your outfit. It has on it a description of your role. Please refer to the DP journal for a post locked to your team with the contents of your card.]

Characters, of course.

Though in the same breath, we're no fools.

[taps the card]

And these aren't coincidences.

Mmhm. I suppose that's why we aren't supposed to overshare. Giving away the details would make this too easy.
machiavellianiue: (on paper we're a disaster)

Do you suppose she wants a show of polite manipulation?
ganbareist: (Think think think.)

That's the setup, isn't it?...

But we're seated with such stubborn, well-bred people.
machiavellianiue: (say those things & keep a straight face)

We're seated with people far removed from an actual court, no matter their past.
ganbareist: (I know my call despite my faults)

And you're not, I take it.

We're all pretty far removed at this point.
ganbareist: (I surrender!)

Re: Secrets

[personal profile] ganbareist 2012-05-13 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Well, naturally. Though I really wonder how I got such a promotion...
machiavellianiue: (but you had to come along didn't you)

Re: Secrets

[personal profile] machiavellianiue 2012-05-13 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Your hard work, perhaps.
ganbareist: (Think think think.)

Re: Secrets

[personal profile] ganbareist 2012-05-13 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
I am pretty diligent.
machiavellianiue: (and I want your revenge)

[turns his card around in his fingers]

I wonder what sort of diligence she rewards.
ganbareist: (That's the last time I don't knock.)

I hope it's not her that got me the position... I'm sure she'd disapprove of me anyway.
