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.]

laundry room

[catliketread]

[The Pirate King is not fond of the laundry room. In fact, he finds it to be the creepiest room here and is absolutely not prepared to deal with the machines. But! He is here for Billy (he hasn't decided if you're the First or the Second) and it looks like Billy is actually. using. the machine.]

...Witchcraft...

[So apparently he's going to stage whisper that very loudly and then enter the room.]

Have you learned how to work these strange devices?

[...He's staying waaaaaay over here. Where the washing machine cannot possibly kill him.]

[allicareabout]

[He's got seniority by merit of age, and also for the sake of clarity it should be alphabetical. Obviously, he's the First.

Anyway.

He'll look over after a moment, though he isn't quite stopping with the...cramming clothes into this thing like he's trying to choke it.]

There you are, Arthur.

[...]

No, that's entirely too dignified. But anyway - it's not going to do anything while the top of it's open, I've worked that much out. Open it in the middle of something and it stops, just like that. So at least it's probably not going to maim people.

[catliketread]

[He wrinkles his nose at the name, but thankfully Billy dismisses it quickly. He is definitely not an Arthur.]

Oh, it stops when it's opened? I hadn't anticipated that. Perhaps it isn't a murder machine.

[Maybe. He's not 100% convinced.]

Have you had any luck using it to wash clothes?

[allicareabout]

If we're assuming the loosest definition possible of "wash", then sure.

[In other words, not really.]

It's probably better suited to being used as a murder machine, if you ask me.

[catliketread]

I can only imagine what it would do to a person if you were to shove them in there...

[HE LOOKS TOTALLY REPULSED BUT ALSO EWW, WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT, KING]

[allicareabout]

[...Meanwhile, in a hotel far, far away...]

...Let's not try to find out, all right? No reason to even bring that up.

[catliketread]

Right, right, of course! No one needs to think about that for any amount of time! Ever.

[y i k e s]

[allicareabout]

You haven't heard that anyone is, have you? Thinking about murder and all.

[That's probably a little more casual than it should be, all things considered.]

[catliketread]

Everyone I've talked to about it agrees that it's stupid to consider. I sincerely doubt anyone will attempt such a dreadful thing.

[well this is gonna be hilarious in a week]

[allicareabout]

We've gone a whole four days without anyone losing their minds. Maybe there's hope for us yet.

[...is that sarcasm it's hard to tell]

[catliketread]

Indeed there is! Four days in cramped quarters is nothing to a pirate, but I can only imagine how difficult it is for some people here!

[...well apparently he's just going to RUN WITH IT so uh.]

[allicareabout]

[...You are so simple. He almost envies you.]

Aren't you guys all about freedom and the open seas?

[catliketread]

We are, yes! But that sort of freedom does not extend to the ship. It's a bit crowded.

[There are so many pirates in such a small amount of space, it's a little claustrophobic...]

[allicareabout]

[jesus christ.]

No wonder you're so cheerful around here.

[catliketread]

Well, I am usually this cheerful. There isn't much that can get me down for long!

[allicareabout]

...Are all pirates like this, or are you just a special case?

[no really

this is fascinating]

[catliketread]

All of my crew are! But that may be because they're my crew. I cannot speak for all pirates.

[...look at hook, there's something Wrong with that pirate.]
