You can check out anytime you'd like.. [Hotel Corona Mingle]

Who: The Fleet!
Broadcast: If you want
Action: Hotel Corona or Planet Ikke
When: December 7th onward

a wheel-shaped space station


[After the mystery and isolation of their last destination, the Marsiva seems determined to head to brighter, busier territory. After a long journey through remote, nebula-painted space, speeding along at a brisk pace for the Host ship, the Marsiva brings her Fleet to a sudden and prominent point of traffic.

It seems that the Fleet has happened upon some sort of vacation destination! Maybe Atroma thinks that the passengers deserve some rest and relaxation... or just wants to distract them with something huge and shiny.

Welcome to Hotel Corona! Feel free to enjoy yourselves and enjoy the sites! If a hotel resort isn't your thing, you can head on over to the nearby planet and explore it's icy wonders.

In order words: it's a mingle!! Everyone get in! ]

Leto Atreides the II | OTA

[ sing us a song, you're the piano man. ]

[ Leto has passed listlessly through the halls, watching people. He'd been feeling disjointed of late and no way of fully expressing that. No one to talk to about what Loki had meant to him. Drifting along, he finally found himself at the hall of music and settled himself by a piano. Leto sinks himself into an ancient memory. Ivory keys and smoky bars. The empty scent of perfumes. He wasn't Leto, but someone else. Some forgotten person in history.

And he begins to play. It ranges from obscure to haunting before it graduates into a fervor, intense in the way he presses on the keys, digging his fingers in.

Then the piano breaks and the spell is broken. Leto blinks, waking up from the dream. He casts an alien look at the remains of the instrument. The people stare. ]


[ mr. sandman, bring me a dream. ]

[ Apparently, the hotel allows any kind of job so long as it's not disruptive. They seemed even bemused at his suggestion of a fortune teller's stand, complete with purple drapes and artificially lit crystal balls. Leto himself wears nothing special, but a thin black veil that does nothing to hide the eeriness of his vivid blue eyes. ]

Want to know the future?

[ wild card your story. ]

Sing Me A Song

[personal profile] universal_charm 2016-12-08 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kirk wasn't sure how he had ended up at the hall of music, more by accident than anything in his explorations because he had already looked at what came before. But whatever the reason, it proved fortuitous in the timing, pausing to listen to the haunting melodies that drifted through the space, following the notes like a red string.

He sees Leto when he comes to the more furious part of his playing, stopping to watch from afar as his fingers dug at the keys, the ivory straining and finally yielding to Leto's force with a dissonant crack, a death wail. Seeing everyone looking, Kirk stepped forward and to Leto's side, touching his shoulders as if he could use his own body to shield him from their sight. ]


I think you made a few hearts beat a bit faster.

[ What a dreadful waste. There's no sorrow like a broken instrument. Leto tilts his head slightly to acknowledge Jim but he doesn't make eye contact. Perhaps his fingers shake or perhaps he's imagining it in his head, still caught in the skin of a distant ancestor. ]

They'll forget soon enough. Memory is a weak reminder for the heart.

They say that sounds and smells stay longer in the memory than sight. And a feeling - a feeling sticks with you most of all.

That really applies to a human life - a human death.

But memory lasts longer for me. I suppose I should be. Grateful.

Her eyes widen along with most everyone else's as the piano goes from putting out beautiful music to splintering under her fingers.

Kitty places a hand lightly on his arm, ready to phase or withdraw if it bothers him.]
