XANADU OPERA TIME | ALL INVITED




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 ]

No? [ She doesn't-- quite get that. ]
mintjulep: (right vs. logical)

[personal profile] mintjulep 2012-01-23 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
No. I'd be interested in knowing, sure, but I don't need to know. I can live without knowing. [ He pauses. ] I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable, or obligated to show me or let yourself be poked and prodded at.

[personal profile] likeboudica 2012-01-23 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
I know that I am not obliged to.

[ Thinking for a moment. ] Why are you so kind to me?
mintjulep: (support|worry)

[personal profile] mintjulep 2012-01-23 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ He considers for a brief moment, but it doesn't take long before he replies. ]

Because you've got to ask that question.

I don't understand.

You've been through more at sixteen than anyone should ever have to go through, Tess. If I can help make things a little easier for you, keep an eye out for you -- hell, even just teach you about horses -- then I will.

[ That he would-- Tessa swallows down the emotions those words bring up. ]

It was not all bad. Most of my life was not bad at all.

[personal profile] likeboudica 2012-01-23 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ very quietly: ] I do want to know about horses.
mintjulep: (down)

[personal profile] mintjulep 2012-01-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ But some of it was. ]

I'll teach you.

[personal profile] likeboudica 2012-01-23 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ yes. ]

Thank you.
mintjulep: (yeah?)

[personal profile] mintjulep 2012-01-23 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
You're welcome.
