fill my heart with song and let me sing forever more

[ ...Apparently there was still paper left over from writing questions + her flyers, because now over the rules in every room there's another flyer taped up:



Those sure are your lovely hosts for the evening. Regardless, heading to the foyer at the appointed time will net you the lovely sight of the foyer walls being covered in make-shift party streamers—toilet paper, actually, masterfully twirled and hung up by Ferid himself.

Also, the clock is absolutely draped with the stuff too. A good time was had in setting this up the hour before the party so no one'd ruin it.

As promised, there's a table with food! Tons of it, of all different kinds, including vegetarian (if we have any of those here). It's generally dinner stuff, but there's a table set aside particularly for a build-your-own-parfait bar. As far as refreshments go, it's water, tea, coffee, and ~*~HOT CHOCOLATE~*~!! Most of it's made by Cilan—the parfait is definitely the fault of your lovely lady host, though.

There's also a sheet with questions set aside, so be sure to pick it up! And remember: if you can't think if why your character'd come, Aligula's the type to make good on her word of dragging them/convincing them. Basically, don't sweat the small stuff. Even free food is a good reason.

Most importantly, mingle and have fun; that's what this party is for after all! Get to know each other and FIND YOUR SOULMATE!!! ]

[Welcome to his kingdom, where everyone has Opinions about him but all agree his taste is poor and priorities skewered.]

I rather like hodgepodge myself. A hodgepodge group of strangers.

[... Mostly strangers...]

Though it still sounds a little nice, doesn't it.

...You seem to like being a little too delicate to just...straight-up call it a clusterfuck. But that's probably closer. Just saying.

[seventhprogenitor]

[...]

It's not in my usual vocabulary, no, but "clusterfuck" does describe us perfectly.

[fivepints]

At least we're all sort of...I don't know. Stumbling in the same fucking direction.

...And attending parties apparently. Hell of a goddamn place for a party. Not that I don't appreciate the effort.

[seventhprogenitor]

Thank you, I'll be sure to pass your sentiments along to Aligula as well! I even tried to do something about those disheartening rules of ours.

[... Toilet paper bows are hard, but he managed it somehow. Look at them. Beautiful.]

I'm a little surprised at the turnout of this party, though, considering how... uptight everyone seems. And how disliked the hosts are. It's nice to know that we'll at least talk politely when we're gathered, I guess.

[And then bitch behind hands.]

[fivepints]

...I think...I think people just don't know what to do with Aligula? She's not. Bad. Terrifying, but not bad.

[Shrug.]

And you're pretty okay. I don't get what their fucking problem is.

[seventhprogenitor]

[... Mallick.... Your words, they touch his cold and unbeating heart... just a little.]

Aligula's a lot to deal with in a tiny package. I'm really not surprised.

For me, though, I even have my fair share of those sorts back home~! It's just something that happens. They're my favorites~.

[They're so much fun, Mallick. So much fun.]

Honestly, it's touching that they think about me enough to dislike me!

[fivepints]

[...You're a fucking weirdo, Ferid. He likes you, but you're a fucking weirdo.]

You...You know what, as long as you're having a good time, I guess. I mean, that's a good way to look at it? Not how I'd look at it, but it's a good way to look at it.

[seventhprogenitor]

[It's his ~charm point~.]

If I told them so, they'd get mad. [He seems happy about that too.] How do you look at it?

[fivepints]

[...He has no doubt that you actually tell them so, because they get mad.]

I mean, I guess I...don't? I'm. Not. It's not like I'm the most popular guy anyway. So I just don't really think about whether people like me or not, I kind of assume they don't. Pleasant fucking surprise if I'm proven wrong.

[seventhprogenitor]

[Precisely! And then they hate him more, and get more mad when he's right, and it's just great fun.]

Then I'll happily prove you wrong~! I've enjoyed our talks and think you're easy to get along with. It may be too soon to say so, but I think of you as a friend regardless.
