ALECTRYON + DAWON + AMALTHEA

[soulping]

[You are ushered out of the parlor and into a cozy sitting room. The storm continues to rage outside, but a roaring fire keeps the room nice and toasty.

As you enter, you find your clothes changed to something vaguely 1940s Noir-ish and appropriate to your character. You all look very dapper, though you may be surprised to find yourself crossdressing. At the same time, knowledge suddenly enters your mind- the role you will be playing in tonight's performance, information on some of your fellow guests, and the rules of the game, as well as the setup for the story.]

[RULES:
THIS IS A MURDER MYSTERY GAME! Investigate your surroundings, speak to your fellow guests, and solve the mystery! Points will be given for completing goals and appropriate IC roleplaying.

You can make private, friends-locked posts to other players for secret discussions, but you MUST include squeakofthedevil on the filter and drop a link here!]

NOTE: In this group, the parts of Kira Graves, Tod Mises, and Roger Mortis are unclaimed. ICly, Kira will have been unable to attend due to both of her children being ill. Tod simply refused the invitation because he thinks his dad is a jerk. Roger had a business meeting across the country that he was unable to get out of.

[first she makes sure that you aren't too close because she's still skittish

then she laughs a little herself and counters that curtsy with a slow, refined bow and a tip of her tophat]

Ah, er.....the pleasure of this encounter is all mine, milady.

[Don't worry, at least proper manners keep us far away from one another. Very nice bow, though, color him impressed. :0

His voice is prim and proper and oddly fancy schmancy, though he doesn't bother with a falsetto. He wants his voice later, thanks.]

I could say the feeling's mutual, but I'm afraid my memory isn't what it used to be. Could I ask for your name?

Re: ROUND 1

[pawper]

[Sometimes effort alone can compensate for total lack of experience, at least enough to get by.]

Fin, Fin Graves. And it's quite all right, I've been so busy myself lately that the same consequence befalls me.

Re: ROUND 1

[menially]

Ah. You're... one of Dee's boys, aren't you?

[Said a bit hesitantly, as though he isn't quite sure of the familiarity of the name.]

Re: ROUND 1

[pawper]

Yes, that's Mother!

[He lets his smile tighten.]

Well, I'm surprised you don't recognize your own stepmother, dear.

Although I suppose we haven't seen one another in many months, have we?

Re: ROUND 1

[pawper]

Ah, well......we haven't, that's true. And I have always been closer to Father than the rest of the family. Even so, I apologize; I meant no disrespect.

[my real mom might not like you at all i guess but ur still a lady]
