Forget all your troubles

[You wake up and instantly realize something is wrong.

There is a vague feeling of dread hanging in the air and, as comfortable as this bed is, there’s just something off about everything, even before you open your eyes. The dread only grows when you open your eyes and realize that you are in a completely unfamiliar room. One that has clearly seen better days at that.

As you explore your room, you will soon find a bedroom key resting on the dresser along with a note]


Welcome, esteemed guest, to our humble abode. We hope that you enjoy your stay in this Phantom Manor, as we expect you to stay with us for a very long time.

Feel free to make yourself at home as you enjoy what this manor has to offer, whether it’s the library, our projection room, or our famous wax museum. We’re sure you will find great joy

However, before you can get too comfortable, we ask you to please come to the portrait gallery at noon so we can discuss your stay here.

We eagerly await to meet you.

-Your Host


[The uncomfortable feeling doesn’t let up as you leave the safety of your bedroom. The manor seems old and decrepit, almost like it would fall over at the slightest breeze. Despite that, anyone who tries to escape will soon realize that the walls are unusually sturdy, and there are no doors that would seemingly lead to the outside world.

Still, at least you’re not alone in this scenario, if the other bedroom doors are any indications. Maybe there are a few more people coming out of their bedrooms too, so you have someone to talk toif you want to try to figure out what's going on. But if the 30 bios in the foyer hall are any indication, whoever has you here did not do this on accident. Whatever you’re here for, it seems like you’re here for a reason.

But hey, what’s the use of being pessimistic about this? Maybe it’s all an innocent situation… right?]

You can't just.... call people freak shows..... that's super rude, dog
kickbuttseatnuts: (Just goes to show ya gotta be patient)

[personal profile] kickbuttseatnuts 2018-01-07 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess not: dogs are polite and sweet to 80% of creatures and don't call people freakshows.

I was calling this entire establishment a freakshow.

[You know, for what it's worth.]
kickbuttseatnuts: (7.5 out of 10)

[personal profile] kickbuttseatnuts 2018-01-07 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Eveeeen so, man, freakshows are pretty well established in hurting mutants and various non-traditional looking people. Not a word I'd use lightly.

[She's very serious about Words.]

Hm.

[His politics are a little outdated, and he's not entirely sure he knows what she's talking about, but the way he's being scolded makes him feel a little embarrassed.]

What would be a better alternative?
kickbuttseatnuts: (To her life is a great big acorn)

[personal profile] kickbuttseatnuts 2018-01-07 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmmmmm...

Hmmmmmmmmmmm....

Madhous- no, wow, that's kinda bad too. Erm.

....creeper den? It feels like it's run by a creep.
sharpasanarrow: (and I have over 300 confirmed kills)

[personal profile] sharpasanarrow 2018-01-07 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
...and because a lot of the people here are very creepy. Excellent.
kickbuttseatnuts: (To her life is a great big acorn)

[personal profile] kickbuttseatnuts 2018-01-07 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Mmmmmmm she'll let that slide.]

Good a turn of phrase as any! Well, not any but like. Close enough?? I don't know, can you really rate turns of phrases?

[......]

Bee's knees. That's at least a 9.5

[He's finding this train of thought a little quick to keep up with, but nods his head in agreement.]

That is a good one, yes.
kickbuttseatnuts: (Where there's a city crime-torn)

[personal profile] kickbuttseatnuts 2018-01-08 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
[This is gonna be a pattern with her.]

...A fool and his money are soon parted. That's pretty good, at least an 8.

Live and let live, I'm fond of that one. 9.6?

Youth is wasted on the young... kind of a downer. 3.

[He shakes his head at the last one.]

It's honest. Young people are...[carefully considering his words]...buffoons.
