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 ]

I would be delighted to introduce you.

[deadly_legacy]

Then we have a deal. [She sounds amused.] Would you care for taking a walk around the grounds? Not too close to the plant.

[misterblackbird]

I would be delighted. But, yes, not too close to the plant.

[deadly_legacy]

I hope his song isn't so...serious as it sounds, but better to be safe. [She reaches out to take his arm. That's the way you go for a walk after all.]

[misterblackbird]

Well, yes, of course.

[He offers it happily, of course. In fact, he's rather pleased with the gesture. It seems perfectly fitting.]

[deadly_legacy]

You've had enough adventure lately. You shouldn't have to save princesses from man-eating plants too.

[misterblackbird]

I do thank you for your consideration. Though, I'm quite sure I could save a princess from a man-eating plant, if I did need to.

But perhaps it's best for both of us that we not tempt such a thing.

[deadly_legacy]

I agree. I'm less certain I could save an Earl, but I would try. [She gives him a fond smile.]

[misterblackbird]

I suppose that should be sufficient enough.

[deadly_legacy]

I'm not sure if trying means quite as much when it comes to life and death.

[misterblackbird]

It ought to be worth something, shouldn't it?

[prettyimpulsive]

Mmm...

I would usually say so. [Just not for herself when trying didn't stop a massacre.]

[misterblackbird]

As would I.
