Week One

[stagemanagers]

[Yesterday, everyone woke up in a strange place and realized that they'd been kidnapped, and also that everyone else around them may or may not be kinnies? Wow, what a weird escalation of kin drama! Given what some people have seen of Spongebob's freaky arm thing, though, maybe it's not that at all?

Your Assistant Director, Hester, showed off her stuff and immediately had her life threatened by Lumpy Space Princess, who got her life threatened right back. Maybe you should keep that in mind if you decide to pay Hester any more visits! She won't be making another public appearance this week, but as promised, she'll be available for visits and consultation in the Principal's Office during business hours.

If you don't want to chat with Hester, there's always the school to explore! Some of you might also be receiving mysterious coins next to your bedside this week - those must be useful for something, right? There's lots to do, and you all seem like a group who can make your own fun, so enjoy your first week of school!]


Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday


(( OOC: This will be the last mod post for this week! Feel free to start submitting regains for any threads that aren't with Hester. Remember, song threads mean an extra coin! This is a peace week, so get all that CR while you can! ))

[he chuckles a little, at that] Of course, forgive my premature assumption.

[he gestures a little to the seat across from Discord]

May I?

[disharmonizes]

You may do whatever you feel like. I'm not stopping you.

Don't tell me you're bored?

[violentenvies]

What, with your company? Never.

[a bit dryly, but he'll invite himself to sit, setting those two cups down and pushing one across the table, towards Discord]

In fact, I've brought you something.

[disharmonizes]

Exactly, you must be bored to be seeking out my company. Voluntarily and everything! Something about wonders and never ceasing, or whatever.

[Just, raising an eyebrow at Salieri.]

If you're trying to bribe me, you should know it'll definitely work, since I have no morals whatsoever.

[violentenvies]

[that raised eyebrow will cause the corner of Salieri's mouth to quirk upward, slightly]

Oh, no bribery at all, I promise. I'm only repaying the generosity you offered me on our first day here. I know I didn't accept it at the time, and I wanted to make it up to you.

[he motions to the cup and the liquid in it, which is a very, very dark color, because it is indeed, a mixture of all of those liquids from the soda machine]

Therefore I've attempted to recreate your concoction from that day. I know it's a pithy imitation, but I swear to you that I did my utmost to be faithful to the original recipe.

[disharmonizes]

[...Okay, now he sees what's going on here. And he can't help the amused look on his face once he does, because oh.

Oh, that's adorable.]

Well, look at that, you figured out how to mix things together. Good for you.

[But he'll gladly take that cup, actually, and just sip it like it's a fancy wine. Not in the least bit perturbed.]

[violentenvies]

I did my best, certainly. [And Salieri will also

take a sip.

....

It's not as horrid as thought it might be, but it's not wonderful either. Very overly sweet.]

So, might I ask what chaos you have planned for the day? Or is that a surprise?

[disharmonizes]

I had a plan, but I've decided to postpone it a little. So now, I'm just going to see where the day takes me.

[is that salt or sugar he's putting into his drink now?

...best not to ask]

[violentenvies]

[Salieri is 1000% not going to ask what is further going into this monstrosity of a drink. Instead, he'll eye the various loot on the table]

I see the day has at least taken you to that odd machine. Quite a variety of items you've got there.

[disharmonizes]

Not the most eclectic assortment I've ever seen, but it's something.

[He picks up the knife he got and twirls it around a little.]

I'll just have to go back again later and see what else is in there.

[violentenvies]

[What random evil luck decided to give Discord of all people a knife?!

Salieri eyes it]

Yes, well. I would tell you to beware of getting buried under trombones, but something tells me you'd enjoy it for the sheer fact of how bizarre it is.

[sip]

[disharmonizes]

Oh, yes, all that wonderful crashing! It's a shame I couldn't record it happening.

[Imagine the hits you'd get online. And also just the literal hits from all those trombones.]

Ah, well, next time.

1/2

[violentenvies]

[ugh. This is why he despises you, sir. Your utter disregard for anyone else other than yourself. There's a moment where Salieri stiffens, remembering having to help Mademoiselle Maya climb out of that mountain of instruments, with the remnants of that deer skin on her person, and he almost snaps at him-]

[violentenvies]

[--but that's not worth it. It won't do anything; Discord has no morals or shame, so it wouldn't do anything but lose any ground he's gained.

So instead, he smooths out his expression and takes another sip of that sickly sweet brew.]

Mmn. [he glances around at the pile, reaching out to pick up a particularly shabby looking stuffed animal...cat?? It is a cat, right?]

"Grizabella"...that's quite a name.

[disharmonizes]

Sounds about like the average cat name to me. Pretty shabby looking, though.

Maybe we can sign the poor thing up for one of those makeover programs that are all the rage.

[Someone call up Queer Eye for Grizabella.]

[violentenvies]

Oh? I'm afraid I'm not well-versed in the area of cat names, personally, so I will have to take your word for it.

[he does arch an eyebrow at that second bit] Makeover programs? I haven't heard of such a thing.

[disharmonizes]

Right, not a thing in your dimension, I guess. At least, not yet. Give it a few centuries and I'm sure reality TV will rear its ugly head.

[violentenvies]

[....right. He's just going to chalk this up to another one of those things like Space and Time Travel that Angus was going on about. Though...]

It's "Ugly" head? What's so ugly about it?

[disharmonizes]

You know how messy politics and noble drama can be, right?

[violentenvies]

Not at all. [siiiip]

[disharmonizes]

[Ignoring your sarcasm sir.]

Right. So. Take that. Amplify it by about ten times, add in a lot of needlessly dramatic zoom-ins and over the top music stings, and ta-dah. An absolute disaster about nothing at all, there for anyone to see whenever they feel like.

[violentenvies]

[gosh can't even let a guy make a joke.

Anyway there were definitely some words in there that he has no idea what they mean, and he's not about to ask]

I cannot imagine why such a thing would be popular. [again, that neural tone, but he is absolutely joking]

[disharmonizes]

No one can. [Fine, fine, he'll joke back a little. GOSH.] So maybe your dimension will just skip right over it and come up with better entertainment.

[violentenvies]

Perhaps. Or perhaps we have already found it. [lol opera. anyway....] Might I ask, what do you mean by "dimension," precisely?

[disharmonizes]

World, universe, plane of existence. Whatever you want to call it.
