[Everything has its season, everything has it's time.

School has is finally out and, once you’ve all gathered your things and climbed on the bus (of course with a trailer attached to the back for the actual barn animals), Beetlejuice roars the engine to life again and takes off across the football field and into the corn. The trip is on the longer side but surprisingly smooth, considering the driver. Better out than in, as it were. On the bus ride there’s time to relax, to talk with your rescuers, to curl up with your loved ones and maybe even take a nap. Hester certainly is- the best sleep she’s had since prom night.

Eventually the road evens out to smooth asphalt and through the windows you’ll see the sun just getting into position to set in the west, right behind the sign for the safe haven known as the Liminal Denny’s.]

[The bus rolls to a halt several feet from the doors. Maybe there are people waiting for you in the parking lot. Maybe they’re already inside, sipping coffee and ordering maple bacon sundaes for their dear ones stumbling off Beetlejuice’s Wild Ride. Maybe someone is camped out by the dumpster. The options are endless at the Liminal Denny’s!

You’re welcome to stay as long as you like. The owner decided a long time ago that the invoked revelry that comes with these cast parties is worth the mess left behind. Just don’t forget to tip your waitstaff. Heather works hard, she deserves it. After their grand slams have been slammed and goodbyes have been said everyone will be free to leave the liminal space that is this strange inter-dimensional Denny's and find themselves exactly where they want to be.

This might be the end but it doesn’t mean you have to say good-bye just yet.

The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways
The atmosphere as thrilling here as always
Feel the early morning madness
Feel the magic in the making
Why, everything's as if we never said goodbye]

[ooc: Welcome to the cast party and final log of It's Curtains act 3 and the end of the main continuity of Curtains! It has been a buckwild five years and we want to express how grateful we are for people giving this weird ass concept a chance and sticking with us through a pretty long hiatus and also Evan Hansen.

As this is the final Denny’s log, there is no castmate limit! Go nuts for donuts, ect ect. As a reminder for our past participants: it has been 5 years since R1 and 1 year since R2 and if anyone has a R0 character they would like to bring and want some loose context- let us know!

You’re all stars and thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Go take your final bows.]

[Streetlights, reveals] | [Vision Statements] | [Mass Resolution: CONNECT] | [A little touch of the sun (Revival)] | [They do this bullshit like 8 times a week (Rescue)]

[It's a pleasant afternoon in the garden. Maybe not emotionally, but physically - isn't it nice when you get to have class outside?

As your voices rise, singing defiance in unison out for the Wizard, there's no immediate response; at least, nothing that clearly is a response. But there's something. Amidst the sound of your song, it may be hard to hear at first; Janis will likely be the first to notice, but eventually everyone is able to hear. It sounds as though other voices are rising along with yours.

There's something on the air - no music, or at least no instrumentals, just a disembodied sort of lyrical chant. You don't recognize any of the voices. They aren't singing the same song as you all are. Maybe they can't; they sound long long ago, and far far away now. Still - despite everything - the trees around you move lightly in a sudden soft breeze. It feels as though you have invoked something, old and entirely beyond your knowledge.

But first. Haven't you forgotten something?

It's Wednesday.

Welcome to this week's school club!]

[When the final piece of evidence is collected, there’s no announcement. Hester’s voice doesn’t ring over the PA system, inviting you all to come to the auditorium as it has these 6 weeks prior. There’s also no body to collect or anyone new to mourn, which feels like a small blessing.

As you all filter out of your respective areas, someone is waiting for you in the lobby, positioned right next to the open double doors to the auditorium. The dress she’s wearing is a red chiffon, accented with black satin belt and trim along the sweetheart neckline and the straps tying around the back of her neck. On her feet she has the sparkling ruby slippers from the vending machine she’s worn several times.

Hester looks up at them from the clipboard in her hands, her expression a vision of calm as if she hadn’t been lying motionless on a stage after throwing herself 50 feet in an attempt to save Maya. Through the doors you can hear very faint voices despite it looking completely empty.]

Oh good, you finished. Please follow me and we can start the final trial.

the final investigation

2021-07-16T16:08:27Z

Posted by: stagemanagers

[It's Wednesday - the day of the promised and somewhat ominous Club Meeting. But where is it happening, exactly, and when? The posters didn't say, and there is no announcement, nothing obvious to gather you all together. Just the awareness that something was meant to happen today, and an odd feeling in the air.

Even if there isn't any clear signal, there are a few subtler things to note. For one thing, Janis might have a feeling, and anyone else who passes by will be able to see - the door to Hester's office is standing open. Perhaps it's worth looking around in there a little more right now?

Janis isn't the only person. Nana has a feeling as well. She'll be able to grab a few people and lead them to a door at the end of the dorm hallway that wasn't there before. Where did it come from? It seems like it's unlocked.

Finally, that mystery door in the hallway? The one that Benji tried so hard to open, and ultimately failed? Maybe he should look at it again - that's a little bit ajar as well.

Have fun investigating!]

Let's Get Down to Business, to Defeat the Wiz

2021-07-12T00:54:23Z

Posted by: employeeoftheyear

[Hello everyone! On Wednesday morning there will be notes slipped under each of the dorm room doors.]

SPONGEBOB AND LSP'S TOTALLY NOT SUSPICIOUS PARTY
Sunday @ 5pm - Whenever we're done!
Near the woods (at the bonfire!!!)

[It sounds totally fine!

Spongebob spends most of the day prepping with LSP to get ready. Making snacks, decorating, the works! And when the time arrives, they practically drag everyone living to the Bonfire. And it's quite a cute little set up! Like last time, there are a bunch of nice snacks set up, as well as blankets and pillows. As well as the roaring bonfire in the middle of it all.

The moment everyone gets closes enough, however, Spongebob makes a tape ring around everyone. It's decently large, so they have plenty of leg room, but it definately confides them to a close space.

He then clears his throat and speaks loudly as he walks around the circle, looking serious in a way that would probably look intimidating if he didn't look like an angry kitten.]

Dear fellow classmates! I have gathered you here today because it's come to my attention that we need to work on our friendship and trust skills. You're all my family and I love you but we can't expect to defeat the Wizard and save our fallen comrades if we're worried about us killing each other!

[Spongebob stops suddenly look at the group.]

So! LSP and I have taken it upon ourselves to make sure no one leaves this circle until we have a plan to destroy the Wizard and all agree we're going to be best friends with each other! We made plenty of snacks so you guys don't gotta worry about starving.

[Honestly here anyone could easily just pick Spongebob out and walk out with him but.

The emotional toil that would be! Besides, a meeting could be good right now!]

Week 7

2021-07-11T23:24:16Z

Posted by: stagemanagers

[Last week, on It's Curtains...boy, that sure was a year-long week, huh?

But despite it all, you've gotten through it with less death than there might have been. Spongebob and Farrah both survived their ill-conceived plan; Maya, with the intervention of Janis and Hester, survived her triple murder. Since the failed execution, there has been no sign of the Wizard or of Hester. It seems like you may have gotten away with that cleanly!

When you wake up on Sunday, you remember everything. All the gaps, the missing pieces, entire chunks of time from back home - they're back and neatly fitted where they should be in your heads. Elle, Orpheus, and Eurydice have also been given graves alongside the others in the garden. These ones were filled in for you; after all, you were all pretty occupied over the weekend.

Other than that...it seems like some unusual posters have been put up around the school. Sounds like something's going to happen this week. You'd better prepare.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday

(( As per usual, endgame will ICly take place on Wednesday, so get those last threads in! As this is the last week, all characters should be at their true canonpoint memory-wise. Feel free to continue submitting regains and...well, you can certainly try to visit Hester. No AC this week, but be sure to check in for endgame! ))

fifth trial

2021-07-10T16:20:30Z

Posted by: stagemanagers

[As the investigation ends, you'll hear the Wizard's voice inviting you to the auditorium. As this happens, the twin doors on either side of the concession stand, across from the gym, will click open. You can enter on either side; both go to the same place.

When you enter the auditorium, it's dark. There's only the small lights along the walkway behind all the seats, just enough to illuminate where you're going. There's a central path between the seats, down towards where you know the stage must be. That's where you must be going, right? As you pass each row of seats, the lights at their ends flick on, marking your procession and slowly making more and more of the room visible. Shortly, you can see your destination: a circle of podiums stationed in the orchestra pit, below the lip of the darkened, curtained stage. They're all identical, labeled with a cast member's name. Discord, Elle, Orpheus and Eurydice now have theirs draped in black crepe and with a framed monochrome photo of them on top. At Maya's podium is a stool with a fresh amaryllis flower carefully set on it.

When you reach the podiums, the lights above the stage finally come on. The Wizard is once again waiting for you. Beside it Hester is slowly lowers in on her bubble. She's still in her pretty pink prom dress, her hair restyled and make-up freshened to not be so messy from sleep. It's also worth noting the blood on her skirt from when she assisted in helping Maya with her injury is gone.

The mechanical head, with glowing green eyes, is installed above the stage and the still-closed curtain. Even if you were standing on the stage, it'd be well out of reach. It peers down at all of you, its motions fluid, and speaks with a booming, artificial-sounding voice:]

Welcome to your fifth trial, everyone. It's time to determine who was responsible for the murder of Elle, Orpheus and Eurydice. Feel free to talk amongst yourselves and work together - you'll have to show teamwork if you want to leave this room alive.

[Oh, what a night.
Why'd it take so long to see the light,
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right.
What a time, what a night.

What a night last night was! Dancing under the stars, romance, family...all the things a good school dance should stand for. Even with everyone being sick it could still, overall, be considered a hige success.

But on the subject of the sickness thats spread through the school...when people start to rouse from their dance-fuled exhaustion in the morning all the symptoms seem to be completely gone. Which should be good news but knowing what day it is.

Maybe you should leave your dorms and investigate.]

[Prom night! The greatest night of your young lives if you watch any Western high school media from the past 60 years. The looks, the music, the copious amounts of fancy snacks, the sore feet from dancing heels and then spending the rest of the night in bare feet- it’s all part of the bigger package.

The courtyard and the roof have both been decked out in a special way for tonight, despite no one really seeing Hester or anyone/anything else decorating. There are round tables set-up in both places, covered in yellow-gold tablecloths. Some of them have platters of snacks laid out on them, one has a large punch bowl that never seems to empty no matter how many drinks are taken from it.

On the roof there’s an extra table with pencils, small slips of paper, a box wrapped in gold wrapping paper and a notecard labeled Song Requests. Just write a song, pop it in the box and within a few minutes it starts playing! Weird, there doesn’t seem to be a sound system anywhere...

Red paper lanterns have been strung around the outline of the roof and between stakes in the courtyard, granting soft romantic light for a night to remember. Put on your best costume shop formal wear, get ready to lose your shoes after an hour and sneak in liquor even though most of you are of age.

After all…tonight belongs to you.]

Farrah in the Bathroom, Farrah in the Bathroom Holding a MEETING

2021-07-07T03:52:45Z

Posted by: brokeforgood

[Salieri’s dead. Peregrine’s doing whatever the fuck she’s doing right now. Guess this calls for... A MEETING. RIP to the carefully constructed spreadsheets and formatting of the old meetings, until an adult comes and wrangles this meeting from Farrah.

Anyway, after the motive on Tuesday, Farrah’s slipping notes to people.

Girl’s Bathroom.
4PM. Be there or be SQUARE.

She’s even drawn a bunch of squares. If you ask her what’s going on, she’ll just point at her eyes, and then point back at your eyes, and dart away. It’s super weird. At least someone got the hyperactivity side effect of this illness.

Anyway. If you follow the instructions, Farrah’s here in the bathroom. Farrah’s even set up her own list of scheduled topics on the wall.

1. Riley Hauntings
2. Dead Dads
3. Can I have your cough syrup?
4. DID WE ALL EAT POISON PIES?

Well. Hopefully someone here is well enough to actually hold a real meeting. She’s clearly not taking this seriously.]

Week Six

2021-07-04T04:57:55Z

Posted by: stagemanagers

[Last week, in It's Curtains, the weather changed, and with it your fortune in Dads. Discord took Salieri out - or perhaps Salieri took Discord out - and left the survivors with that much less impulse control. Nonetheless, a visit from a new friend might have provided a little bit of much-needed hope?

On Sunday morning, you'll find that the other side of the second floor has opened up - as well as the actual intended path to reach the roof garden. You can finally stop climbing up that rope every time you want to have a picnic or secret lover's rendezvous!

Outside, the weather seems to have calmed down. It's sunny again, with rather a lot of clouds. Though it's warm, the atmosphere seems very...still.]

[ WELL THAT... HAPPENED, HUH. YO WHAT THE FUCK DISCORD THAT'S BALLER.

Good thing the Wizard's probably going to be occupied with THAT for a while longer because it looks like this long ass, nogood day isn't quite over yet as there's still one more incoming curve ball. In contrast to the smell of smoke from the auditorium there seems to be a... sweet, banana-y baked good smell coming from the cafeteria? But who could have been baking while you were all at the trial--

If you go in there or even just pass by at all, you'll find on one of the tables there's a plate with several warm and fresh banana muffins. Underneath the plate, just sticking out enough so that you can see a corner peeking out, is a folded up note:

You are not alone. I'm here to help.
I'll be waiting for everyone in the
girl's washroom on the first floor.

Come and find me.
-a friend

At the bottom of the note is a small, hand drawn banana. The handwriting and muffins might look familiar to two of you.

There's no flashy costume this time, just a plain black dress belted with green satin around her waist.

[Well last week Spongebob decided that the Wizard was nothing but a big fucker and everything was all his fault so he is going to kick his "Boost the moral of his friends" scheme into overdrive to rub it in the Wizard's stupid face.

Around the school on Monday, there will be Spongebob's huge mass of fliers again, this time for some sort of camp out.]

Spongebob Squarepants Crazy Camping Party!!!
Come to the edge of the forest on Monday at 5 pm for a whole night of roasting marshmallows, telling Spoooooky stories, and sleeping under the stars!
Don't worry if it rains, we can always bring the camp inside!

Attendance is MANDATORY!!! I will come find you if you don't attend.

[And he absolutely means it.

Even though there are no stars, it's a comfortable evening with no real signs of rain, and Spongebob's managed to set up a cozy Spongebob set out a bunch of blankets, towels, and pillows around a cozy campfire. There are plenty of food you'd normally see at a camp out, including smores! Spongebob seems to have gone all out and brought in practically every kind of candy from the kitchen, so have fun with the sugar rush!]

[Last week, you had your very first minor body pileup! Granted, the Balladeer's death was entirely unrelated to anything, but at least he died as he lived - getting completely fucked up in some kind of carnival-themed hellscape. Only two days later, another terrible accident took Rina and Varian both from you. It's just been one of those weeks, huh? At least you got to add both of their corpses to your weird growing collection!

Again, you'll wake up this morning with another new snippet of memory. You'll also find that the stairs in the lobby are no longer blocked. You can only access one part of the second floor, but it seems like there's some neat stuff up there!

Outside, a few things seem to have changed. For one, the weather has turned - it'll be overcast this week, with periodic rain and even scattered thunderstorms. For another, the bushes around that rock out by the football field have bloomed. That's nice.

Get to it, friends! I'm sure everything will be fine this week!]

[Perhaps to the surprise of no one, there is no after party after that trial. Two children were dead. Two children were dead over a simple accident and the Wizard cared more about himself than anyone else. But they won't give up, they can't give up. They had to keep fighting until everything's been set right.

At the Lobby ofrenda later that night, there are six origami pieces accoupling the other memorials. A penguin, a rose, an octopus man, computer, a music note, and the last one are of a boy and girl holding hands. Along with that there is a plate of strawberry cupcakes with blueberry icing and a note that reads:]

There is still hope and love in the world

Everyone, if I might have your attention, please!

[it’s loud enough to get everyone’s attention--louder than he’s spoken (except to yell at Discord lol) in quite a while. Once he has quiet, though, he’ll begin:]

Thank you all for coming. Now, I’m sure we’re all rather disturbed by what the Wizard has attempted to taunt us with this week. However, we cannot give in to fear yet. There is still much of this place to be thoroughly explored, and it would be to our benefit to once again try to organize ourselves and create not only emergency supplies for everyone here, but explore every nook and cranny of this school and outside of it and gather as much information as we can to make our escape.

Looks like it's time to find ways to cope.

Thus, the bed frames from Broadhurst dorm are being worked on being taken apart by Varian while the mattresses are becoming The New Floor.

Additionally, there's plenty to eat and drink, what with the hot pot provided by Rina, cookies that might just taste a bit burnt from Farrah, apples from Orpheus, more delicious potatoes from Maya, as well as sandwiches by Cassandra. There is also quite the variety of pie, from caramel, to bittersweet chocolate and strawberries, and several other varieties from the vending machine. Finally, there's popcorn brought in by Spongebob. If someone wants a drink, there is some delicious hot cocoa, provided by Elsa, as well as the tea brought in by Discord. There's also a variety of drinks from the vending machines.

Everyone's invited of course. There are a variety of games happening, and there's even a TV that's been wheeled down from the Library. So bring your pajamas, whatever they happen to be, and settle in for a sleepover!]

You all wake up this morning with yet another new memory returned to you. You'll also find that the school's external doors have now unlocked. Congratulations! You're free! Unfortunately, you also seem to be entirely in the middle of nowhere. So maybe it's more of a symbolic victory.

Is This Where You Wanna Be? Crawling On Your Hands and Knees?

[In a perfect world, Maya would have been able to isolate herself for the rest of the evening. It's not like her to wallow in her feelings, but it's also not like her to be trapped away in a murder school or part of an execution so... not like she has much choice there. Besides, between the influence of Janis, and the sight of her remaining dormmates, it's clear that Maya simply can't... let things go.

It's like she told the SQUIP. They look to her for hope. And so, hope she must be. It's her job to stand tall for the others. Thankfully help comes easier this time -- there's no need to scruff Discord, or try to keep Spongebob from making Hate Patties. Maybe that, in and of itself, is a good sign.

It's just another fluke. They'll be okay. They're together, after all. Even Salieri and Discord are getting along well enough to help.

Cutting potatoes proves to be an interesting task, considering the fact that most of the knives are missing. Maya has a few guesses as to how that happened, but she won't point fingers again today. She makes do with what she has -- two swords between her and Cassandra.

Potatoes, cakes, pies -- the arrangement is much the same. There's even cocoa (made by less experienced hands, unfortunately), and alcohol. It all feels like a repeat of last week, but she's trying to not think about it. She does her best to keep a smile on her face as she knocks on each door, inviting others to the cafeteria once more.]
