XANADU OPERA TIME | ALL INVITED

[shall_yield_us]

WHEN: Jan. 15 | the Xanadu gardens.
CHARACTERS: Everyone.
SUMMARY: we interrupt your regular Xanadu viewing for the following special reminder: ...the visit ain't over til the bloody plant sings.

That's right: our green belle been giving rather obnoxious titillating performances in Xanadu, to what can only be the... enjoyment... of certain Citizens. Adding injury to insult, it's quite possible that a couple of residents have also captured the plant's tune on film, and now the video's been turned into a network viral phenomenon!

But as Citizens surely know, every grand artist needs a doting live audience: come get dibs on more plant footage? Save someone from its evil clutches? Help a poor soul that's got lost in the gardens' great expanse? Get the plant to sign with your talent agency? Embark on a mystical quest to get it to shut up?

Just put your chlorophyll-tinted glasses on, and anything is possible.


[ ooc: Find whatever excuse to throw your character in Xanadu, tag someone new, and all around: GET IN HERE. Just as a note: hearing the plant is definitely optional, so please don't think it's an overwhelming sound that'd keep your character up at night or some such. It's just a log prompt. XD ]

Something other than what he's singing about I hope. [Euphie smiles over at her and steps closer, wondering if Estelle was speaking to her directly or just pondering aloud.]

[firstaid]

I agree with you, Euphie. [She gives a sheepish laugh. While Estelle was pondering out loud, she was also speaking to Euphie. Though, she's simply used to having her musings ignored or have a simple dismissive comment about them.]

Maybe it likes steak?

[deadly_legacy]

[She must have very unkind traveling companions! Oh, wait...]

Ah... Perhaps! It might be worth a try.

If we were to throw the steak.

[firstaid]

That would work. I'm actually rather curious to see if it would like it...

[Okay, curiosity is there now. Maybe it's time to run off to a butcher and get a slab of meat, which gets her thinking...]

Do you think it would like it cooked, or raw?

[deadly_legacy]

...I. Well, it's all very new, isn't it? I suppose you could try asking.

[firstaid]

I suppose I could...

[And she is going to slowly approach it, very, very slowly, but obviously far enough from it's reach. She doesn't want to be its dinner.]

E-excuse me. Do you prefer your meat cooked or raw?

[And then it sings at her again... whelp...]

[deadly_legacy]

[How disappointing.] Maybe one of each?

[firstaid]

Perhaps that would be the best solution, especially since it won't really give us an answer...

[Which gets her thinking even more. If it likes it cooked, how does it like it? Medium? Well-done? Rare? Well, hmm... she doesn't exactly want to cook three steaks.]

[deadly_legacy]

It might just be the only song he knows. Maybe he doesn't really like those kinds of things at all.

[firstaid]

Perhaps that could be the case. In any matter, I don't want to find out if he is a carnivorous plant, at least a human eating one...

[deadly_legacy]

I very much hope it isn't that!
