Deets and A QUESTION!primrosellaNovember 18 2010, 02:59:11 UTC
IT'S CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY MEETS MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS oh man I am so excited about this I LOVE TRAINS you have no idea.
Right, so!
primrosella haaaaates the subway system and the Underground, so naturally I am going to be a terrible person and throw her into this. No real preference for compartment number, but if any of her friends are getting in on this, I'd prefer for her to bunk in near at least one person she knows and trusts, since the whole train thing is going to have her on edge anyway without all the creep factor to go with it. Other than that, I'm all about the CR (and possibly some mystery-solving!) so she's open for that.
prefers_chess is undecided. On one hand, I would love to have him being a Mystery Solving Teen™ (or part of a group of mystery-solving kids--jinkies, gang!) for the ride, but that's still optional and subject to change. He is an aficionado of Sherlock Holmes, but he might also sit this one out, depending. Anybody want him for anything?
protects_her still needs to check in with crew, but if Cinna's biting the dust
( ... )
I'm completely undecided on participation here. I mean, I have every intention of chucking one character on at least, but who is up in the air. If you would like Penny or Justin around for company/torture, feel free to influence my decision?
Hmmmm. On one hand, having Rosella latch onto Penny like a lamprey is always an exciting pastime. On the other, she and Justin are just beginning to get some CR thanks to the play, so this might be a good opportunity to continue that? I mean, especially since she's going to be pretty riled up, she'll probably be very quick to be like OH HI I KNOW YOU SURPRISE WE'RE FRIENDS NOW LET'S SIT TOGETHER and so on (moreso than she would normally, I mean), so that'd be points in Justin's favor right there.
And then, of course, there is always the possibility for hilarity if Rudy and Justin end up investigating a murder together. >>
Penny seems almost too easy. Building CR with Rosella and Justin could be fun (and he'd be completely confused if a casual acquaintance suddenly declared herself a close friend). Then again, Rudy and Justin partnering up for crime-solving hijinx...
And since they are allowed to move around on the train, it's entirely feasible that Rosella and Rudy could both latch onto Justin at different points of the adventure. Particularly depending on who else inevitably boards the train, since Rosella wouldn't want to be a bother to one person for the whole weekend. So the Crime Solving Teens™ might be able to come to pass after all...

Sure! The way I've been playing it in her post so far is that she woke up by herself, but there are a few ways around that--if Rue gets on at one of the stops, she could be assigned to Rosella's cabin sort of after-the-fact and end up together that way, or we could say she was there since the beginning but she wasn't around when Rosella woke up (maybe Rue was surveying the train or trying to get off again or something) and that's why Rosella didn't notice she had company in the beginning, or something like that. Whatever works for you!

Especially if they end up doing it REALLY WELL.
