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.]

Now, now. It's not ladylike to let your displeasure show so openly.

Ah, yes, my mistake. I suppose I'm more restless than I thought.
brociopath: (Maybe my head IS big.)

Restless, are you?

Mmm, just a little.

My cousin went to one of her parties a short time ago. We haven't heard from him since.
brociopath: (Now YOU are behind ME.)

I can see why that'd make one restless.

I intend to inquire after him, if our hostess shows herself.

What an interesting thing to learn.
quercusoptima: (restart from the beginning)

Forgive my speaking so boldly. I'm mostly worried.
brociopath: (Who me? Couldn't be!)

Oh, nothing to be forgiven, but I'd be cautious about voicing it too loudly in a place like this.
quercusoptima: (perfectly odd)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] quercusoptima 2012-05-12 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, yes. We'll see what she has to say, if and when she shows herself.
brociopath: (I didn't want to have to do this)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-12 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
How honest you are.
quercusoptima: (a thousand unsung rhymes)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] quercusoptima 2012-05-12 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I certainly try to be.

I suppose that's a virtue.

[personal profile] quercusoptima 2012-05-12 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It's served me well thus far.
brociopath: (Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-12 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, let's hope our hostess is an honest woman herself.
quercusoptima: (perfectly odd)

Re: Mingle

[personal profile] quercusoptima 2012-05-12 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.
brociopath: (jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii)

[personal profile] brociopath 2012-05-13 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Tell me about this cousin. What were the circumstances, do you recall? How do you feel about it?
quercusoptima: (things overheard)

She invited him to go with her, and apparently quite insistently. He seemed to be all right with it, but ... he is the only family I had here.

[putting a hand over his heart]

I'm worried.
