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 ]

[Huey is walking past, just as confused as most people who're near in the area over the source of all the singing.

Sighing upon remembering a certain movie he watched when he was younger.]

I swear if it starts singing about it being a "big-green mutha' from outer space" I'm going to douse it with all the herbicide I can find in this place.

[tangledintower]

Is there something I'm missing here?

[She's suspicious of the plant, and other people seem to know more about it...]

[child_radical]

Just another thing which may turn out to be annoying or utterly traumatic.

[tangledintower]

It's just singing, though...how much harm can it really do?

[child_radical]

[He runs a hand through his afro and turns to look at the singing plant.] Well it could attempt to eat people.

[tangledintower]

...wait, really? But it can't move, it doesn't have legs!

[child_radical]

People said the same thing about the triffids.

[tangledintower]

...good point.

[child_radical]

We'll just have to do what we normally have to do in these situations.

Wait.

[tangledintower]

What are the chances of it going anywhere?

[child_radical]

I could say that there's little to no chance but then Murphy's Law would just decide to kick that theory out the window.

[tangledintower]

[She has no idea what Murphy's Law is, but it can't be good.]
