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.

It's fine. [ grumble grumble ] If you can't find it, it's fine.

[ Not that he doesn't want his jacket back, but considering he could get an exact duplicate from his closet, it's not a complete loss. ]

Mostly fine.

[rosswood]

Once everything gets put back to normal, I'll find it, sure.

[All said in the familiar college-student tone of I'll do it later, MOM.]

[oversight]

Good.

[ He could wait. He didn't exactly have a choice, anyway. And at least this line of conversation was keeping the Puppet from stepping out into the night. ]

This won't last.

[rosswood]

What, like the event?

[He raises his eyebrows. He hasn't forgotten his original intentions, though the Dark Knight's current shtick is kind of...interesting. Why the watchful guardian thing? Why the Voice?]

So what're you up to, then? Keeping your "flock" from going all astray, or something?

[Note the scare quotes.]

[oversight]

Or something.

[ But it's close enough, in reality. He'd much rather prevent trouble than have to deal with it directly. ]

It not advantageous for anyone when half of Wonderland goes wandering to its doom. I'd hate to see this place over-stuffed.

[rosswood]

Why do you care?

[Caring is a lot of work, which is why Alex doesn't bother most of the time.]

Isn't it all just, y'know, survivor of the fittest?

[oversight]

What do you think?

[ Have the flattest of flat looks, man. Because that is not the kind of thing the Dark Knight feels is appropriate in any situation. ]

[rosswood]

Right, okay. [Insert eye-roll.] So you're one of those crusading hero-types. Fine.

[He shakes his head with a scornful huff, and starts backing away, retreating back inside.]

[oversight]

[ ... ]

Thank you.

[ At least he's a somewhat thankful and polite grump? 8D? He does like that he's getting his way. ]

[rosswood]

[Cue a droll two-fingered salute as the Puppet slips on back inside. He'll nip on out the back way if he really can't get the nagging need to see this so-called Beast out of his head.

But for now, Strong Bad here can lurk to his heart's content.]
