WEEK 1

[With the introduction of their showrunner and a brief run through of what they're in for in their time in the Opera House out of the way, the performers are free to explore the first floor of the opera house at their leisure then and for the rest of the week that lies ahead. The double doors leading to the kitchen will be unlocked at 7 am and locked at 10 pm for intermission. Performers are free to prepare meals for themselves and others at any time outside of intermission.

The Merchandise Booth will also be open for business after the first day as some of the performers may find envelopes with their names on it taped to their doors in the morning.

If performers wish to have private conversations with their showrunner, The Balladeer, just step up to the box office and see if he's in.

Enjoy your week, everyone.]


[Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday]


[ooc: This is the last mod post for the week for us! Feel free to start depositing coins in the merch booth if any of your threads have reached that length, so long as they're not with the Balladeer. Remember, song threads mean double coins! There will be no murder this first week so gain all the CR you can while it lasts, darlings.]

[sunshineprincess]

That's rude!

[Anna walks up to a glass and curiously watches it. She gently pokes one of the pits.]

So what are they supposed to be?

[dontfeedplants]

I'm sure he's really busy. Besides, I don't mind growing plants myself.

[He so rarely does it since most of the plants they get are already at least sprouted, but hey it's something for him to do.]

If I'm doing this right, they should grow into avocado trees... Hopefully we'll leave before that happens, but I thought it would be fun to try out.

[sunshineprincess]

[She's never had the opportunity to grow anything. The staff did that.]

... what's an avocado?

[dontfeedplants]

[He grabs an avocado that he didn't cut into yet.]

They're a plant that produce a berry with savory meat on the inside. It's edible but I've never eaten it.

[This is including today.]

[sunshineprincess]

... Should we try one?

[Because she's curious.]

[dontfeedplants]

It can't hurt. Although I've cut up my fingers a little, so I might need to get some band aids before we get one to eat.

[This is what happens when you tiredly cut avocados with sharp knives.]

[sunshineprincess]

Band aid? What's a band aid?

[Really. Don' assume she knows half of these terms you're throwing around.]

[dontfeedplants]

[Seymour just... stares at Anna a little. Wow you really aren't lying about the "from the past" thing.]

You know, you put it on your skin and it helps stop your bleeding.

[sunshineprincess]

So it's a type of dressing!

[Anna starts opening the cupboards.]

What does it look like?

[dontfeedplants]

I guess?

["Dressing"...?]

If they're anywhere, they would probably be in the Storage Room

[sunshineprincess]

[Old timely words.]

Maybe. I'll keep- [She pulls a small box out.] First aid kit?

[dontfeedplants]

Oh, there's probably some in there actually.

[Well now he feels kind of silly.]

[sunshineprincess]

[She fidgets with it for a moment and manages to open it.]

Burn ointment? Anti-bacterial cream? What is this stuff?

[dontfeedplants]

They're probably for burns.

[Great observation there.

He gets up and looks at the first aid kit too.]

I'm sure there in here somewhere - oh there they are.

[He grabs at the thin pieces of paper in the kit. Well, he definitely hasn't been lying about the cuts, but they don't seem like bad cuts.]

[sunshineprincess]

[......... she figures it's for burns. Thanks for the input.

She looks at the strips curiously.]

That's so tiny! You sure that can cover the cuts on your fingers?

[dontfeedplants]

[Seymour is a valuable edition to this team.

He starts unwrapping the bandages and putting them on his cuts.]

Yeah, I'll probably need a few of them, but I'm not going to die.

[sunshineprincess]

[Her eyes go wide as she watches him put them on.]

That's all you need to do? How do they stay on?

[dontfeedplants]

[Blinks at.]

You know, they're sticky on one side.

[.... Offers a band aid for her to test out?]

[sunshineprincess]

Sticky?

[She takes it and does what he did. Then she gasps as the band aid sticks to her fingers.]

It's sticking!

[dontfeedplants]

[Okay that actually gets a small laugh out of him. It's amazing that anyone could be fascinated by something like band aids.]

I don't know how I could live without these. I practically need band aids every day without how much I hurt myself.

[Okay he's done bandaging himself.]

So, um, did you still want those avocados?

[sunshineprincess]

I think I'd be covered in these back home.

[Very clumsy. It's a surprise she's made it this far in life.

She nods enthusiastically.]

Of course!

[dontfeedplants]

[It's a miracle, really.

Seymour takes a fresh avocado and cuts it in half. He's just going to... carefully not use the half that has the pit in it. He's been cut enough times today.]

Um, do you want to try it first?

[sunshineprincess]

[Anna watches him cut it, amazed at the green color inside of the fruit. She nods and takes a piece, squeaking when it squishes in her fingers.]

It's soft! [Carefully she tries not to squish it too much, eating the soft green meat before wrinkling her nose.] That tastes awful...

[dontfeedplants]

[Seymour takes a bite of his own and yeah, this is actually really disappointed.]

... At least we shouldn't stay here so long that they start bearing fruit?

[sunshineprincess]

[Now Anna is glad these don't grow where she's from.]

I hope so. Else we'll have a bunch of these and no one eating them.
