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.]

Well... I hope so! Of course, I don't want them to dwell on it, I mean, they should be trying to protect everyone who's left.

[...Ope, Riley's started possessing people.]

Oh! Oh, we're doing this! Hm, I should really start practicing what I'm going to say.
expertreese: (give them no reason to stare)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh I'm not doing that

[Not that anybody asked him, he just sort of responded in reflexive terror here]

[Moving around the table, Richard pats Evan on the shoulder.]

That's alright, you can sit this one out, kiddo. I think there's enough of us that he's going to need a nap when we're done anyway.
expertreese: (before I lead with the worst of me)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
If you could just like, not even mention I'm here, that'd be cool too! Just like - ha, who cares, right? I'm just some random guy! Totally not important!
superbeliever: (♚ ⚔ 063 ⚔ ♚)

[personal profile] superbeliever 2020-07-28 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Richard pauses, instead of walking past. He frowns, and puts both hands on Evan's shoulders from behind in a total dad move.]

Hey, you're not 'some random guy'! You're Evan! Our Ev... well, there's not a whole lot of rhymes you can do, I'll have to work on that.

But you're one of us, now! Which means they'd love you too, buddy! You just gotta believe in yourself!
expertreese: (step out of the sun)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
I've learned to slam on the brakes
Before I even - oh my god


[okay well that happened so maybe it's just time to freak the fuck out actually?????]
superbeliever: (♚ ⚔ 050 ⚔ ♚)

[personal profile] superbeliever 2020-07-28 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Oop.

[Hey, it wasn't him! He didn't do it.]

No, don't worry about it, I can totally hype you up. I am a great wing man. Sigyn! Let me go next!
expertreese: (before I even turn the key)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Gh - what?

[evan thinks this sounds terrible but actually it sounds incredible]

I mean, I'm not - what - how.

[Narrator voice: and then he didn't.

He does look vaguely apologetic, as he slumps back into a chair at the table, and pillows his head on his arms.]


Ough...

Well, at least I didn't start bleeding that time.

expertreese: (step out)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
[honestly evan prefers this!]

We can bleed...?
superbeliever: (♚ ⚔ 003 ⚔ ♚)

[personal profile] superbeliever 2020-07-29 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
[It takes effort to open his eyes.]

When I took control of Tad Cooper, my nose started bleeding.

I have had quite enough of the sight of my own blood for one lifetime. After-lifetime?
mcfife: (🔪 one thousand years ago)

[personal profile] mcfife 2020-07-28 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Do you know Christine?

[Are you also an actor?]
expertreese: (give them no reason to stare)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no oh no oh no she must've seen the speech -

[FUCK]
mcfife: (🔪 the universe on fire)

[personal profile] mcfife 2020-07-28 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Make sense, Evan! What did you do there?
expertreese: (before I even turn the key)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
It wasn't here! I don't even know how I got here! It was like months ago! At home!
mcfife: (🔪 where I'll find my destiny)

[personal profile] mcfife 2020-07-28 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Did you die?

[How do you not remember that!]
expertreese: (before I even turn the key)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently!

[ Riley, practically laying on the table because ohhhh that took a lot out of her. ]

It's important...for them to know...if a random kid we don't know anything about...is here, just calm down.

[ If she's Mega Stress then he's like. Ultimate Stress. ]
expertreese: (so I've got nothing to share)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, so I - I may have been in sortofaviralvideoIdon'twannatalkabout?

[it was worse than yours, Riley. you wouldn't know it to see it, but like, morally? it was morally much worse.]
isawallflower: (when i realized)

[personal profile] isawallflower 2020-07-28 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ ................ ]

They...don't care about that...stuff.

[ She closes her eyes. Jeremy... He was so nice about it all. If only she could've listened. At all. ]
expertreese: (no)

[personal profile] expertreese 2020-07-28 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
No, no, it's not like -

[He actually has no clue about Riley's whole deal, but embarrassing viral videos are a Thing, and. Well, the start is embarrassing, but no one really talked much about that.]

It's. She probably thinks, I'm, a, a good person!
isawallflower: (and i pray)

[personal profile] isawallflower 2020-07-28 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ She cracks open one eye. ]

...I am. So asking about this later. But join the club. Somehow...she keeps trying...to see the best in people. [ Eye closes, face just goes right back to the table. ] Even when they really don't deserve it.
