Room 4

[dramatispersonae]

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.]

Forgive my speaking so boldly. I'm mostly worried.

Re: Mingle

[brociopath]

Oh, nothing to be forgiven, but I'd be cautious about voicing it too loudly in a place like this.

Re: Mingle

[quercusoptima]

Ah, yes. We'll see what she has to say, if and when she shows herself.

Re: Mingle

[brociopath]

How honest you are.

Re: Mingle

[quercusoptima]

I certainly try to be.

Re: Mingle

[brociopath]

I suppose that's a virtue.

Re: Mingle

[quercusoptima]

It's served me well thus far.

Re: Mingle

[brociopath]

Well, let's hope our hostess is an honest woman herself.

Re: Mingle

[quercusoptima]

I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Re: Mingle

[brociopath]

Tell me about this cousin. What were the circumstances, do you recall? How do you feel about it?

Re: Mingle

[quercusoptima]

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.
