Welcome.


You don't remember how you got here.

It may be one of the first things to occur to you when you wake up, that you don't know when you got here, what you were doing involved nothing like this; granted, it's also possible that it doesn't matter – that whatever circumstances you last remember have nothing on the fact that this bed is really comfortable and the room around you is gently-lit.

It's warm, but it's nowhere near where you're supposed to be.

Whatever you think of it, the fact is that you can't stay there forever; there's a silver key resting on that trunk near your bed, and you might want to take it on the way out. It's no big deal if you don't, exactly – it won't lock automatically after you close the door, that has to be done manually – but it'll probably become clear that privacy is a commodity in a place like this.

After all, you aren't alone; the hallway is likely quick to become populated with other people that are just as confused as you are. Go ahead and talk to them if you'd like; none of you will know exactly how you got to the building with the wooden walls and the odd windows that no one can see through, but that doesn't mean you can't get to know each other on the way to...wherever it is that you're going.

Wander long enough and you may hear the chiming of a clock nearby.

It's hard to tell whether it's telling you it's very early or very late at night, but checking out the room it's in eventually might be a good idea regardless; it's large and open, designed to accommodate social gatherings from the look of it, with the clock in question mounted against the western wall. It isn't the only thing here, though – there's a large frame set into the wall nearby, and it contains some information that might be relevant to your interests...

Or perhaps your attention is drawn instead to the other framed information nearby; don't worry if you miss it in here, though. It's posted in every other room in the building.

There's also the matter of the large double-doors at the end of the room; they aren't going to open, regardless of what you do.

Looks like you're trapped here for the time being. Might as well see who's here with you, right?

[ She's seen armor like that only in the Games. And he's so tall. Katniss takes another sip of her tea. ]

I made it. It's just hot water and mint leaves.

[#DamnElezens. But to hear something so simple, he can't help but smile. Despite his fancy look, Aymeric really is humble at heart.]

My thanks.

[But even as he gathers the items needed and he knows how to use a stove...just that this one looks complicated. Where are the fire crystals to heat it up?

Crap.

Fantasy life woes...it's a pain.]
flagitate: (♪ i made it up.)

[ Katniss finishes off her tea and gets up. Where do some of these people come from...?

She reaches over and turns on the stove. ]


Never used a stove before?
onedrinkwithme: (Worried)

[personal profile] onedrinkwithme 2016-07-03 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Willing to find out? Don't mind the big guy looking a little sheepish.]

Nay, I have just...not one like this.
flagitate: (plate)

[personal profile] flagitate 2016-07-03 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well, there are all types of people here.

Katniss gestures to the knobs. ]


Those turn on the burners. There's a diagram on the back of the stove that shows you which knob goes to which burner. The higher the number, the faster it gets hotter.

[And lucky that he can catch on quickly, filling the tea kettle and setting it on one of the burners.]

Tis interesting how this works without the need of crystals...I had only thought items such as this exist outside the borders of the realm.

It runs on electricity. Not crystals.

[ So many questions. ]
onedrinkwithme: (Smile (Kind))

[personal profile] onedrinkwithme 2016-07-03 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[...well. That's new. Yeah he has no idea about that but hey, he can work with it.]

That is a way to show I am far from home.

[Just as the kettle is singing. As much as he wants to panic, it is a luxury that he can't afford. But for now, there is tea and a moment a calm before the storm. And he did make plenty.]

Would you care for more?
flagitate: (yew)

[personal profile] flagitate 2016-07-03 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
It's easy once you get the hang of it.

[ She grabs her cup. ]

Sure.
onedrinkwithme: (Speak)

[personal profile] onedrinkwithme 2016-07-04 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Quick learner here. No worries! And besides, he may wear the fancy clothes but he's a pretty humble guy at heart. Like serving tea and not caring. It's relaxing as he pours the water into her cup then into his own. And when he takes a drink, he can't help but feel warm. Too bad there's no birch sap...]

It feels like an age since I had one...

What, tea?

[ She sips at her own, and it's helping calm her stomach from how much she'd eaten. ]
onedrinkwithme: (Bow)

[personal profile] onedrinkwithme 2016-07-05 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Well since sometimes others may want to try and give one a stronger...drink...like ale. Moreso while in a fort setting.]

Aye, I need not anything else as long as I have that.
flagitate: (face)

[personal profile] flagitate 2016-07-05 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
You won't have any problem with running out of it. There's a lot here.
onedrinkwithme: (Bow)

[personal profile] onedrinkwithme 2016-07-05 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Excellent, he'll camp in here. Except not really.]

And you? Is it something you partake back home?

flagitate: (selfbow)

[personal profile] flagitate 2016-07-05 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Sometimes, after dinner. [ Whatever small dinner she has, anyway. ] But it's mostly just mint tea.
