now let's skip the tears and start on the whole-
[You remember dying. Maybe the memory is clear and bright and your body still aches from the cause. Maybe it was fast enough that you didn't feel it and don't remember what you went through. But no matter how you went out you're still trapped here.
When you open your eyes it might take you a minute to recognize your surroundings. For the executed, it's your dressing room. For the victims, you startle awake in the place your body was discovered. But no matter where you are nothing is where you remember it. It's like everything has been picked up and moved to the other side of the room. The entire room has been perfectly mirrored from what it used to be and, upon leaving, it seems the rest of the opera house is just the same. If you remember one room being in the east wing, it's now in the west. If it was in the west, it's now in the east.
Welcome back to the Opera House, friends. Even in death you're still in the woods.]
WEEK 1 | WEEK 2 | WEEK 3 | WEEK 4 | WEEK 5
[ooc: Welcome to deadland, darlings! It's a perfectly mirrored version of the Opera House and each week, as new people die after new floors have been revealed, the stairwell doors will unlock and allow you to reach them. For example, week 3 victims will unlock floor 2 and so on and so forth. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canon point.
Have fun because we have some fun things planned for you.]

Loki and I use to call it 'everything stew.' We'd take whatever was in the refrigerator that sounded good together and trow it into a pot. So far we have beef, carrot, celery and...apples.
[Listen, it's better than it sounds!]
no subject
Sounds great!
[He BARELY learned how to make eggs.]
Tad Cooper would have loved it.

no subject
Tad Cooper is not a lizard, he's a dragon. And he'll be the mightiest dragon in the seven realms!
I will let you off with a warning this time because I didn't have him when you were alive.
no subject
Many apologies. I am rather unfamiliar with dragons as they are just myths where I come from.
no subject
You're forgiven.
[This time.]
So! [He claps his hands and rubs them together.] When do we get to eat?
no subject
[She sets the wooden spoon to the side]
Did you...remember anything when you woke up here?
no subject
[He takes a seat on one of the stools at the island.]
Did you?
no subject
Yeah. Quite a lot actually. My wife wasn't actually dead, for one.
no subject
no subject
About 30 years by the Midgard calendar. We, uh...[She frowns] I thought she was dead for about 5 years, so I don't know if that really counts.
no subject
I've known my fiancee- well, not technically fiancee, but I was hoping, you know, before I...
[His excitement flags, and his smile falls a little, the boyish, excited tone dropping from his voice.]
...Well, I was hoping. Bobby was one of my childhood playmates. Apparently she carried a torch for me for quite some time, you know- which came as quite a surprise to me.
no subject
What was she like?
no subject
...I can't believe I'll never see her again.
no subject
She sounds a lot like Loki, actually.
no subject
[When she dies, that is.]
Loki is... your wife?
no subject
no subject
Roberta isn't a scientist, but she's a brilliant fighter. You should see her with a sword.
no subject
Loki was...well, she wasn't clumsy, but watching her dance was kind of like watching a baby deer run?
no subject
Well, I haven't seen Bobby dance, but she's definitely multi-talented in her coordination.
[If you know what he means. The innuendo doesn't lift his mood for long, though.]
If I never knew her,
If I never felt her love,
I would have no inkling of
how precious life could be...
no subject
And if I never held her
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in her
The missing part of me
no subject
She's my guiding light
When I close my eyes she's there
and it's right
It feels so right...
no subject
My whole life'd have been a blur
Lost forever
If I never knew her
no subject
...God, I hope she doesn't go back to Spinster Island.
