THE MOCK WEEK

[You find yourself waking in a large dressing room, incredibly spacious, but in intense disarray. The bed is comfortable enough, and each room seems to be equipped with a working bathroom and shower, so it's at least livable. But aesthetically, the place has hit the floor.

The horrifying clock
mounted on the wall reads 9 am. After enough searching, you'll find a large tourist-y map of the studio on one of the dressers. An ominous note attached to the map with a paperclip reads "12PM WAITING AREA". It's not like you have any choice in the matter, seeing as there doesn't seem to be any way out.

Upon exiting the dressing room, you note a crooked star attached to the door bearing your name. There are 24 others like this, bearing names that you may or may not recognize. A quick tour around the studio reveals it to be in a similar state of disrepair, but something doesn't sit...right with you. Though the place is certainly creepy, you get strange vibes as you explore the building. As you move about the dust-filled halls of the abandoned building, you may spot movement out of the corner of your eye, or hear strange noises from behind you. It's nothing to be worried about, though...right?

At the very least, you'll find some comfort. The projection room and attached theater still seem to be in working order, though you'll have to manually grab one of the reels off the wall and start the thing yourself. In addition, the waiting area and lounge are both filled with reading materials, and the later features a large stage and a microphone. The commissary seems to replenish itself with food whenever you take your eyes off of it, ensuring that we won't be going hungry anytime soon. There are also cabinets full of ingredients and a small kitchen should you not trust whatever your benefactor is placing out for you.

Fortunately for them, the smaller individuals amongst your party won't find a great deal of difficulty moving around. Though their beds remain oversized, there seem to be appropriately-sized staircases and escalators placed about in appropriate spots, so as to make their lives easier. After all, they can't just keep relying on the others to get up to the cabinets and such, can they?

While you're waiting to find out what the deal here is, you might as well come out and socialize.]

[lbr kristoff's awkward singing should be part of her fever dreams, it's that bad]

Strange? How do you mean?

It's -- it's complicated. Probably too much to go into right now on top of all this mess.

[He waves a hand out into the hallway to indicate which mess he means.]

... Lord, where are my manners. Haven't even introduced myself proper. I'm Fiddleford McGucket.
defyingfrigidity: (I really hope you get it)

[Understandable. Elsa knows when not to push, so she just nods, and gives a slight laugh.]

It's quite alright. Names are the last thing on my mind, with everything going on...

[Still. There's no flourish, but she gives him a small bow as he introduces himself.]

My name is Elsa, Queen of Arendelle.

Queen? Lord, I'm sorry, I ought to've been more polite. Not that -- I mean I wouldn't know how, I've never met a Queen before. You'll have to pardon me.
defyingfrigidity: (everyone deserves the chance)

Oh-- it's okay, really! [Oh dear, she didn't mean to fluster him even more!] We're far from Arendelle, and we're all in the same boat together... right? I don't think there's any need to treat me differently than you would anyone else.
terribibble: (his chin goes INSIDE him)

[personal profile] terribibble 2017-05-12 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Honestly a strong breeze could fluster him. It's not her fault.]

If -- if you're certain. What would you prefer I call you? I'd feel odd just usin' your name.
defyingfrigidity: (it's time to try defying gravity)

[personal profile] defyingfrigidity 2017-05-12 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Just... "Elsa" would be fine.

[It would be like they're friends! Friends don't use titles, right?]

I promise you, I'll take no offense to it. It would actually be nice, I think.

If you're certain.

Did you, ah -- did you see the note?

[He would like confirmation it is exactly as ominous as he thinks it is.]

The... note?

[She's been so caught up in her own shock and internal panicking that she hasn't really... looked around much yet.]
