004 // the house of sin

[serpentis]

Who: Dorian and assorted guests
Broadcast: Fleet-wide, 3/10
Action: In a villa practically in the forest (THE HOUSE OF SIN)
When: Broadcast- 3/10 // Action- 3/9-3/31? Until we leave.

Broadcast:

[The broadcast goes out on 3/10, and Dorian smirks a bit into the feed.]

I believe I've secured lodging for myself, with room enough for several others. If you need a place to stay, do let me know. It's a quaint little villa a bit outside of town. ...please don't mind the suspicious glances, I assure you, I've done nothing entirely against the guidelines that were set.

---------

Action:

[Dorian has secured a villa, but the residents of Mor don't seem too keen on having an evil mage for a neighbor. As the month goes on, more and more villagers will show up to stand at the gates of the villa and threaten to come in after the "evil wizard".

Maybe he shouldn't have gone so overboard with the whole "contacting the spirits of the dead" thing.]

((OOC: Mingle post for the House of Sin. We'll pretend there are enough rooms in here for everyone! Even if you character only drops by to rest their feet a bit, everyone is welcome to visit and stay the night if they want.))

[note to self: look up "lyrium". she seems pretty curious about it. she's not sure if it's more mage magic, or fae magic... it kind of seems like neither.]

Is it... Just chock-full of magical energy? The lyrium? It looks kind of like... [...ah, maybe she shouldn't mention that. awkwardly:] ...Something else I know about.

[wolfuncaged]

It is a mineral in my home world. It...increases magical ability, to put it simply. It's dangerous, toxic, even.

[ladiesss]

[it does sound kind of like dross. she frowns a little at that last bit, now fidgeting with her fingers.]

Wow, uh... Are you going to be okay, then?

[wolfuncaged]

[He gives a shrug. He tries not to think about it.]

I have not died, yet.

[He is aware one day it will claim him. When it will is the real question. ]

[ladiesss]

Oookay. Good job, scary glowing guy.

[she gives him a thumbs-up like a dork, even though it's with a completely straight face. ...and, as she suddenly remembers.]

Oh, and, um. My name's Krista. I don't know how long I'm gonna stick around here, but...

[wolfuncaged]

[Oh wow, he hasn't had a thumbs up since Ellie. The memory brings the briefest of smiles to his lips.]

Just do not break into my room, and you will have no quarrel with me. Enjoy your stay here.

[ladiesss]

[oh, that seems like a good expression! okay. she'll, um... start scooting out of his room, around him.]

I will do that. And, um... Hey, I don't know if you do, um, normal people things? Like... hobbies or anything... But if you want to do anything...

[saying this as she is... backing out of the room now...]

--I mean, what I'm trying to say is that if you get bored and want to do something with someone who's not Dorian or a dumb mage, I'd totally hang out with you. Okay? Okay.

[she made that awkward maybe she shouldn't have said anything MAYBE SHE CAN LEAVE NOW AND HE WON'T SAY ANYTHING.]

[wolfuncaged]

[Just gonna...watch her move slowly. Not moving. ]

...I will bear that in mind.

[Wow. Well. He thought HE was bad at it. ]

[ladiesss]

[all right she is OUT. smooth, Krista. that went smooth...]
