- hello? Is anyone there? This is so retro.

[there's a tap at the screen! and then the briefest of frowns, before his expressions shifts to a more pleasant one.]

Whatever. Look, while the motif around here is rather creative if not borrowing from some of the better and less saturated portions of Burton's vision, I'd appreciate it if someone could

I'm sorry, you won't be able to leave. There is no way out.

...Do you know a young man called Kurt?

[He just really hasn't heard anyone else even remotely talk like that.]

[yourshowface]

So I've heard . . . which is mildly disturbing and borderline lame.

Kurt? . . . that name sounds fami- yes. Vaguely.

[watchful_knight]

Have you already picked a room? And if you need anything, I would be glad to assist. I have been here for over a year and know my way around the place quite well.

In what context?

[yourshowface]

I- believe so? I'm not entirely certain. It's all rather disconcerting as a whole. Is there some sort of rundown in bullet points, because all I'm getting thus far is trapped, Carroll tribute run rampant, and more trapped.

A club I'm involved with back home. There's a Kurt in it, although I'm not very familiar with him.

[watchful_knight]

Have you been shown around the house? There is a kitchen, a dining room, and much more.

A "Glee" club?

[yourshowface]

I haven't, actually.

That's correct. I take it you're familiar with it.

[watchful_knight]

Can you tell me your room number? I can pick you up and show you around.

Someone, it might have been Kurt, founded one in this place. My spouse has been in it for a while, and I joined a little while ago.

[yourshowface]

Would the number be listed right outside the door?

. . . huh. Interesting.

[watchful_knight]

Yes, it should.

I'm sure he'd love you to join, too.

[yourshowface]

[ignores that second bit as he steps away from the screen and over to the door, opening it and poking his head out. after a minute or two, he steps back over.]

It's room 333, apparently.

[watchful_knight]

I will be there shortly.

[And he will, a fourteen year old boy with brown hari that is tied back into a ponytail, wearing clothes that were fashionable about 600 years ago. He smiles pleasantly when he spots the other male.]

Good afternoon.

[yourshowface]

[gives him a quick onceover before nodding.]

Hey. That was fast.

[watchful_knight]

I was in the kitchen, it is not that far away.

[and this is part of why yaoi-stereotypes do not work at all for him and his husband |D]

What would you like to see first?

[yourshowface]

[tilts his head to the side, considering that for a moment.]

. . . well. What would be the single most useful place for someone here to know about?

[watchful_knight]

I guess most people would consider food the most important matter, so the dining room and the kitchen.

[yourshowface]

Then let's start with the dining room and the kitchen.
