[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. It's your dressing room, that much is certain, but 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, you're not out of the woods yet.]

[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 DO YOU KNOW HOW MOULIN ROUGE GOES BECAUSE SPOILERS D-NE GETS BACK WITH THE POPCORN AND THEY START THE MOVIE AND EVERYTHING IS COLORFUL AND DELIGHTFUL UNTIL IT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT]

[first hime is squeeing in delight

then she's just getting embarrassed

and now she's a sobbing wreck]

Why can't they just be happyyyyyyyy?

[holy shit WHY

d-ne's just kind of
enjoying herself and then becomes very line-faced and very cross and-]

That wasn't the kind of scandalous I hoped for. [she is not crying at a romance between a man and a woman she is not those are not tears in her eyes!!!]

[Hime clings to D-ne and wails.] This is so sad! They should have just run away together and not had to deal with any of that!

[WE HAVE REACHED "COME WHAT MAY (REPRISE)" AND

I will love you
Until my dying day!

YEAH D-ne can't really say anything to this just sniffs and very subtly puts an arm around Hime back.

WHAT THE FUCK BAZ LUHRMANN]

Waaaaaaaah... [sniff sniff] Why did any of that have to happen? This story's way too sad...

[She wipes at her eyes as the final song starts and Satine's properly dead.]

Because. "Everyone loves a good tragedy," or so they say. [Her voice is tight.

She hates tragedies.]

I say they suck. Let's find something happier.
