and something appears.

[rosestolilies]

[ voice ]

How could I? How could I have done such a thing? Honestly! I'm so inconsiderate sometimes!

My darlings, I nearly forgot that not all of you subsist on human food or enjoy the sunlight. Can you ever forgive me?

Please, ask the cats for directions. They'll show you my new gift to you.

H-hey... I don't suppose you can throw in electricity and computers while you're at it? And video games... and consoles... and... y-yeah...

[rosestolilies]

Oh, those wouldn't fit the atmosphere, I think...

[yakuza_otaku]

But... I need those...

M-maybe you could put them somewhere out of the way of the atmosphere?

[rosestolilies]

I'm leaving a need unfulfilled...?

[border_phantasm]

As in vampires, for instance?

[rosestolilies]

Yes, exactly!

[border_phantasm]

[Well this helps with the Flandre problem]

How generous of you.

[rosestolilies]

Yes, it was very generous.

[hotshot_momma]

...So she was totally serious.

And. Yeah. This is definitely an inconsiderate thing you've done that you've fixed. [Several million to go.]

[rosestolilies]

That's not true, my dear; I do have a sense of humor--

I'm so glad it's fixed!

[hotshot_momma]

I was talking about someone who claimed - truthfully - to be a vampire, Queen of Hearts.

[rosestolilies]

Yes, it takes all kinds, doesn't it?

[sheroic]

OK, while that looks like a totally awesome scene from one of my movies, I'm still not seeing a TV! [ So unamused. ]

[rosestolilies]

We don't need television here, dear.

[sheroic]

You need TV everywhere!

I... I can sacrifice and go for a non-HDTV, I guess.

[rosestolilies]

Not here! Here, you can do things that are much more exciting than television. Act out your own dramas! I'll be watching!

[ The second the mirror activates, Kanaya can be seen leaning close. She seems... almost nervous. Not in a bad way, though, inexplicably excited. This is it - this is the magic she's been looking for!

She licks her lips and begins to speak in faltering tones. ]

...I seem to be hallucinating. I must be. I can understand the gaming-hive, but... the lake of blood as red as candy. The lights, cutting at least a little through the shadows. Everything points to it.

Were you the one who made this sanctuary for rainbow drinkers?

[video]

[rosestolilies]

Hallucinating? Not at all.

[ A pause... ]

Unless you've been near the wild places...oh, don't go there, they're bad for you...

What was that? Yes, I made Lake Sanguine. Rainbow drinkers? What a delightful name!

[video]

[grimauspistice]

Yes, I wholeheartedly agree! [ Okay, this Queen person can't be bad at all, if she shares Kanaya's fascination with the bright and grim! ] I've only really had a chance to read of their kind in books, but seeing something of this nature in person is truly remarkable!

[ And, after she's had a brief moment to collect herself: ] If I may ask, provided you are able to answer, what is dangerous about these wild places?

[video]

[rosestolilies]

I very much hope you can keep seeing these things!

[ She seems genuinely excited, too, clasping her hands together earnestly. Until the wild places are brought up-- ]

They're not finished. I can't keep you safe there.
