Week 1

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well that was a busy day, huh? But despite all that, a good majority of you are reasonable people, and are smart enough to find an escape without resorting to deadly violence. Maybe if you put your heads together, you'll find a way to get out of here! After all, the host is practically in shambles already, what can he do?

The whole first floor of the manor is open for your leasure now, with the only change being that there's now a set of rules in the foyer hanging on the wall.

Let the games begin.]

[MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY]

Oh! You're married? Gosh, but you look...like, not that much older than me. I guess that was normal, way back when...

[ Please excuse her, she hasn't read the bios in-depth. ]

Um, I mean...yeah, kinda. I thought I was done with that stuff, but apparently not.

[It is so weird to hear the time he's from described as 'way back when'. It makes him feel very old, despite being Very Not. He's only twenty!]

That's... that's funny. Back home my dad was so desperate to get me married he threw a ball and invited every girl in the kingdom just to get me to pick one.

[He thought it was nuts then and it still does sound kind of nuts now.]

[pinkflip]

...Wow.

[ Yeah buddy it's absolutely nuts. ]

Talk about a hover-parent. Couldn't he have just...I don't know, encouraged you to go on dates? It's your own life and you should have the final say, but that'd be better than a whole ball?

[holdthetrumpet]

[He almost says something about 'hover parent' but, like. Thinking about his dad? That's just about right. Not that he doesn't love his dad a whole lot -- he has a pretty good relationship with him, actually -- but sometimes the king gets an idea in his head and just will not let it go.]

It's a complicated thing. A prince doesn't just 'go on dates'.

[I mean, they do, but they're like... chaperoned walks around the garden and it's always with, like, moneyed young ladies of standing that are very nice but just not your type and it's awkward and uncomfortable and he hated doing it. A ball was better in a lot of respects, even if it was worse in others.]

And it did work so, hey, no harm done?

[pinkflip]

[ Fun fact, she almost said helicopter parent but she had enough of a mind to realize he wouldn't get that reference.

Anyway. ]

Well...yeah, as long as it did. It's your wedding, after all. She's a nice girl?
