Tavern Mingle (INSIDE) | OPEN

[vitaelamorte]

Who: EVERYONE
Where: The Dark Lantern Tavern!
When: 1/15/16 -1/18/16 - The duration of the event!
Rating: Probably PG-13, will vary by thread.
Summary: Let's go to this creepy tavern and ask for some directions! A log for staying nice and dry inside.
The Story:




For the duration of the event, the mansion has become a dingy tavern. It has two floors, the bottom being the main tavern and the upper floor has six bedrooms with one bed and one magic closet in each room for everyone to fight over, unless they don't mind sleeping on the floor or in the tavern somewhere. With the amount of people in Wonderland, everyone is cramped together and it will be very crowded. The closets will work, however they will only provide clothing and items from time periods long gone (though they do not seem to be bound to any particular time period). There are no employees to be found in the Tavern, but there's a working kitchen with a wood fire stove and enough food and drink for everyone to last the entire event comfortably. There's even a stage with musical instruments to entertain yourselves with! There's no electricity, but plenty of candles and lanterns around.

For the entire length of the event, it will be dark outside. In addition to the never-ending night, it will pour for four days straight, and it will all seem rather ominous once it becomes apparent the sun isn't coming out. Pretty much all signs will suggest that everyone should stay in the tavern and eat, drink, and be merry with their stupid new names. But it really is tight quarters, and some might be curious to see what else is out there. Maybe there's another place to stay out there, or something. Maybe the Beast Alice spoke of is out there.

[The Banchou, who thinks that title is a little over the top but also kind of funny, notices the Viking as he's sketching and writing. They haven't met, as far as he can remember, and, being the nosy person he is, he comes closer, peering at the papers. He can't read them, that's clear right off the bat, but that doesn't make him any less curious.

It's also quickly clear that the Viking is deep in concentration, so the Banchou lingers for a minute, trying to decide if he should or shouldn't interrupt. He's too curious to walk away, but just polite enough not to startle the guy. As a compromise, he waits until there seems to be a natural pause in the writing/sketching before speaking.]

Can I ask what you're working on?

[ During his pause, The Viking hears the voice and blinks in surprise. He'd almost forgotten he's in a crowded tavern, surrounded by other people, and that these other people might just approach him at some point.

After the second of startlement, he turns his head toward The Banchou and looks up at him almost uncomprehendingly. He just about missed the question, but as his mind backtracks and remembers what it was, clarity dawns on his expression and he smiles sheepishly. ]

Oh, sure. Just some ideas I had for my flight suit. [ He gestures to the papers like that'll explain better. ] I, uh, I modified this armour into a flight suit so I can fly alongside my dragon back home.

[That is nothing close to what he was expecting to hear, but it's very interesting, so he's going to stick around and ask more questions.]

Fly separately on your own, you mean?

[Also...]

You have dragons in your world. That's normal there?
