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.]

[Wearing this, taking a seat]

I suppose we should introduce ourselves, then. I am Duke J. T. Eustace. Please, call me J.T.

[tah-dah, sitting demurely with hands folded in "her" lap]

[wearing this number, tugging at a sleeve, and trying hard not to look like he's enjoying himself]

Duke Zebulon R. Midgeley, the third. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Hmm, an inspired choice. Your name . . . ?

[blandly] Duchess Virginia Early Feaghery III.

I don't know how to say it.

What a pleasure, my lady. [bows from his seat, stiffly]

Why, so far, we seem to all be of equal rank.

[wearing this, looking slightly uncomfortable]

[inclining his head too, with only a little more grace] And the same to you. I wonder what our esteemed hostess wishes from us today.

Ah, understandable. Are you a sir or a madam, then?

As do I. Hopefully we will at least be provided refreshments. Where on earth are the servants?

Emperor.

Mm, it's pleasant to be among one's peers, for once.

I hope you've been well, good sir.

[in this]

I hope everyone is enjoying themselves. Archduke Drew Goodall Thornton.

--ah.

[blinks for a moment before dropping into a (slightly awkward) bow]

My apologies for not greeting you more formally, then, Your Highness.

Quite well, sir, and yourself?

Why, Your Grace, you look quite striking.

With luck they'll be here soon. With the weather, maybe supplies were delayed.

...Rolo, I don't want to do this.

An Archduke today?

Duchess Virginia Early Feaghery III.

...Is it important?

Oh, very well. I've been enjoying my time in court immensely.
