Room 4



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.]
silentknight: (if you say so)

Try Brother at his most in-control and egotistical, okay?

Superior. Valuing himself highly.

Oh. Okay. Yes.

Thank you.

It's fine. Acting is difficult but it's doable if you keep your character in mind. Shall we give it a try?
brociopath: (Take my hands they'll understand)

[rises from his seat, only to sink to one knee. But not looking away from her face.] Your majesty, what a pleasure it is to discover you to be one of the other guests.
silentknight: (no but i'm right)

[fighting back the ohgod discomfort. puts out her hand]

You can stand.
brociopath: ((unsure))

That's kind of you, my lady. [Rises, though he inclines his head slightly]
silentknight: (Look like the boy too shy)

It's... nothing. Act... natural.
brociopath: (Always remember your first gift)

[takes his seat again] I'd offer you a drink, but our hostess seems to have forgotten to provide any.
silentknight: (They think a girl who gossips is a bore!)

I'm not thirsty.

How are you?
brociopath: (derp.)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-12 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
As well as always. Enjoying my time in court, of course.
brociopath: (Bodies break)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-12 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
You're doing fine. Just remember that court is 'yours' if you're an emperor. We all 'belong' to something that you control.
silentknight: (There you see her)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] silentknight 2012-05-12 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...But you're people.
brociopath: (Dubious kitten is extremely dubious.)

People can be property and they can be tools.
silentknight: ([nods silently])

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] silentknight 2012-05-12 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...I don't want them to be.
brociopath: (Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

You're playing someone who would.
silentknight: (Now's your moment)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] silentknight 2012-05-12 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...

The emperor?
brociopath: (Watching you fap)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-12 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. You don't rule nations by thinking of people as equals.
silentknight: ([nods silently])

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] silentknight 2012-05-12 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
But it's not right.

You don't have to like the person you're pretending to be, you just have to pretend to be them.
