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 ]

[ Faith's been contemplating trying to kill the thing for a few minutes, when Seth decides he wants to be a door instead of a window. ]

Yo! Down in front!

[drinkslikeanan]

[Seth must have been standing there staring in disbelief longer than he thought. He turns around quickly at the voice yelling at him. Oh hey! It's that lady, from the fight day. He takes a few steps to the side until he thinks he's out of the way.]

Sorry.

[commarogue]

[ She chuckles and shrugs, and then takes a couple steps forward to stand next to him. ]

Think it's cursed or something?

[drinkslikeanan]

To be honest, I can't keep track of what's curses and what's this place just being mental.

[commarogue]

I hear that. Part me's thinking this thing needs a molotov. Or flame thrower. Could be fun.

[drinkslikeanan]

[No, Seth. You are not allowed to look intrigued by that plan. Stop it.]

Would that be murder or just gardening?

[commarogue]

[ Fire pretty, Seth! ]

Weeding, far as I can tell. C'mon, that thing's gotta be getting fed, right? Someone's feeding it and I wanna know who.

[drinkslikeanan]

Do you always need to get to the bottom of everything?

[commarogue]

[ Oh, you don't even know, Seth... ]

Well, I just-- I'm all kinds of curious. You're not? Just happy being kidnapped and messed with?

[drinkslikeanan]

Not happy, no.

[Seth just doesn't like causing trouble. At least not the kind people notice. It's how he's managed to stay out of jail.]

[commarogue]

[ She gets that look. Hell, she's still that person sometimes. ]

Complacent, then. Whatever works for you, right?

[drinkslikeanan]

I just never see much use is rushing right in.

[commarogue]

Just as much as sitting around doing nothing, you ask me.
