CATS

You're in a small airy room made entirely of porcelain and frosted glass. Squishy armchairs — the old fashioned type; pretty velvet affairs with patterns of roses in your team’s color and legs of dark wood — circle a large table, upon which you find a spread of afternoon tea. Mmm, tea and crumpets.

Cupboards, shelves, and drawers line the walls, all of them full with ... er, equipment. Knives, vials of strange liquids, sachets of powder, whips and guns and, well, the list goes on. Also on the wall, prominent and written in bold, is a list of rules. There is also a copy of the instructions that were given to the regular teams.

[You snap awake quite suddenly, seated in a squishy armchair. Somehow, quite mysteriously, you already know exactly what's going on and what is expected of you. You know, too, that working for Nyssa is the absolute best thing that you could ever do ...]

[The teams are in their own rooms, making their decisions. You have some time to kill before the day's work begins.]

[ Examining the various liquids a bit dubiously. Let's not think too hard about the rules for right now. ]

[ Definitely taking part in the tea. Pinky out. ]

Well, this should be interesting.

[drinking some tea and having a crumpet or two while testing the edge of a knife]

Fancier digs than usual.

[ Said very casually, as he examines every single one of those guns, with honest curiosity ]

[ Puts chin on his shoulder.

Or tries to. He's the shorter one. ]

[takes a moment to take everything in

and then just laughs]

[ He'll bend down some to let Sparkler put his shoulder and picks up one of the vials of liquid for himself. ]

A bit of a contrast between the tea and the "concerning" equipment, don't you think?

Nyssa's just giving us some options! She won't steer us wrong.

Besides, I don't need any of this. I'm my own weapon.

Is it? What does it normally look like?

[Will be over here comparing knives, apparently trying to find the prettiest one...]

Oh. That's true, isn't it?

I'm interested to see what kind of magic you'll be able to pull off during and after all of this.

What's so amusing about this?

I never would have expected to find myself working for her, that's all.

Something incredibly fantastic, certainly. I'll dazzle you.

[ The back of his hands glow with purple skulls as he pulls at the death energy here. ]

Good thing I have my staff.
